A German man accidentally bought 28 Tesla Model 3 vehicles online amounting to 1.4 million Euros after a glitch on companys website.
The person known as `Ballon-Man` at online discussion forum Reddit wrote about how he and his father accidentally placed an order for 27 Model 3s instead of just one.
The family placed an order for a new Model 3 equipped with Autopilot, but something did not go right with the Tesla website.
After clicking `submit,` the website responded the order could not be placed because of a payment issue even though they filled in payment details correctly.
The user`s father clicked "Confirm" once again only to have the same result. This went on for about two hours.
Eventually the website responded and `Confirmed` the order all 28 of them, taking the total billing amount to 1.4 million Euros and given that each vehicle has a non-refundable charge of 100 Euro, that amount summed up to 2,800 Euros.
However, after a phone call, Tesla understood the situation and cancelled the entire order without charge and were instructed to simply place a new order.
