Are you guys really that stupid to think they they will fullfill 100+ of these CDRW drives?

Of course not. They have absolutely no legal obligation to fulfill any of these orders unless they accept your paymet (charge your card). One person may have been able to slip by, had this not been posted. But now, they will cancel them all.

The correct price is $119.99 and that is the price that is ringing up at in the B&Ms. The two B&Ms that I checked already knew of the error and said that CompUSa.com only updates once every 24 hours so it will be tomorrow before the correct price is reflected on their site. From my own perosnal experience with pricing errors on CompUSA.com, they never ship these prcing errors, but good luck to all who ordered. Maybe someone will be lucky?

Here is CompUSa.com's typical email that they sent following previous pricing errors on their site. Let see if they send the same form email this itme...


Dear CompUSA web Customer;

Thank you for ordering with CompUSA.com. Unfortunately, due to a
mechanical error, the item(s) you have ordered is discontinued and
unavailable. Since the error was found before your order was
fulfilled, we have cancelled it. If you would like further
information on our policies, please visit our Terms and Conditions at
http://www.compusa.com/terms.asp#pricing. Please note this only
affects the order for the item(s). If you have placed an order in
addition to this one, it will continue to process as scheduled.

We apologize for this inconvenience and sincerely look forward to
better serving you in the future.

Regards,
The CompUSA.com staff

Office Max has a Polaroid BurnMax 24x10x40 USB 2.0 CDRW drive in this week's ad for $129.99-$40 IR-$30 MIR=$59.99 (SKU#2014-9910)

Add the Hi-Val 50 CDR spindle ($15-$5 MIR-$10 MIR=free) (SKU#2006-8819) and you can use a $25 off 100 coupon bringing your total down to $34.99 plus tax.

You also get a free audio CD player with purchase of any CD-RW drive this week.

It's a few more $$$ but the deal is for real plus you get an audio CD player and 50 pack of CDRs...

PS. If you don't have a USB 2 port, it'll still work at 6x speed.

I went to the B&M near my house. Had to drive for 45 mins just to get there. And those SOBs would not PM compuSA.com. I wish I could argue better. Usually I try a little bit I am too scared to create a scene and left the place meekly.
Anyone had luck getting this deal at any B&M??
thanks

B&M, it's not what you think.

Stands for Brick and Mortar, a physical store, not an online store.

I went to the B&M. Get this, they had the shelf tags on the drives that said $19.99. But when I took it to the register, it rang up at $129.99, and the guy said it was a mistake on the website and the shelf tags. I yelled for about 5 minutes and then walked out; bait and switch mofos!

Ordered 2 on-line and drove 45 miles roundtrip to check thier B&M (Lombard, IL). Shelf tag showed $139.99 but rang up at $119.99. Checked their website w/ the use of their Mac that used T1 lines, and the item# disappeared. Walked out with nothing. Looks like we'll be getting that dreaded e-mail on monday. :disgust:
