so who's using express delivery for this thing? i wonder
how long it takes for these orders to make it thru
processing? about 1 day on the standard treadmill?

I've already received the obligatory 'confirmation' e-mail from Amazon so lets hope this order gets processed! If not, then the email is just more evidence I can use to stick it to da Bezos man!

I wouldnt be surprised if this thing actually came through. Amazon is known for these screw-ups.

wouldn't that be funny if some pissed off CSR who just
got LAID off by Jeff hacked into the system the nite before
he cleaned off his desk and changed the price on one item
before he left? and maybe he called up all his buddies to
raid the site when no one's around to respond so that the
robots would start packaging up all this stuff so that by the
next day it would be too late to do anything about it...

ah...the phantasy...

I'm curious...could Amazon cancel all our orders/raise the price to $99.95 per unit and claim that a malicious user hacked their website and manipulated prices? It seems like a far-fetched plot, but could they just claim something like that to cover their arses?

Wow glutius we were thinkin on the same wavelength..scary..

if they did that, this would be a classic case of bait and switch, and we would hit them a lot harder than they're getting hit now, so i wouldn't worry about that too much

This page actually has a picture of the dreamcast with an 82% off graphic on it. So either they screwed up "big time" or this is a little more complicated. 82% off 100 would still only be $18 which is still an awesome deal.

*edit - Beat me by a few seconds. I guess Tritons think alike.

Thanks raymondb

I remember not too long ago when one of Buy.com's better DOTDs was the Dreamcast for $99. If this works out I can finally stop kicking myself for not getting in on that deal.

bundles are still at 169-299??? games and accessories

You think someone would've corrected this by now if it was a real error? I'm thinking I should've ordered a few more...lotsa birthdays coming up (I don't egay..sorry!)

EDIT: Sorry I couldn't link this page cuz of cookies, but at the video game section main page it says "Sega Dreamcast price slashed! Now only $99.99! Visit our Dreamcast Store." I guess they really made a boo-boo.

Do you guys really think you would get more than one IF they acutally decided to ship what they had on hand?

RE: The Insiders' DVD for 2.40 (shipping only) price was marked .00
didn't everyone only get 1 copy?
