OOPSY!! Not my issue. If I can snag them at this price, I will.

I placed an order for two more.

Pre-ordered 4 total. Hee Hee.

I doubt they'll honor this, but what the hey. Maybe I'll get a free gift card or something.

Naptime.....good eye.

HOLY CRAP. It's people like you who ruin the deals for everyone.

R O F L ! !

Let's snap back to reality here, you don't seriously think they'll honor this do you?

If they do, I'm that much ahead and you'll be kicking yourself in the nether regions for not doing what I'm doing.

Sheesh!!! You still believe in the tooth fairy?

 

[AsukaStrikes]

they aint gonna ship any of em, i cant remember the last time they honored a pricing error. i just want one, our college apt is completly empty

 

[AsukaStrikes]

woah, shipping date sept 13th to may 6th, 2003. maybe they're trying to get a bunch of orders then ship them when they are way cheap

Welcome to Shortnugly's TV emporium. How can I help you today?

WoW... u must be f&@ing retard or something ..... first calling the CS to REPORT the error ...Yes i found an error on this TV but i forgot to apply
free shipping on it.... well if you read the posts correctly, it told you how to change it, second , can't you read my freaking post up there, "cancel the order then place again". It doens't take a genius to figure that out....
You know it does't matter if we are not getting them or anything but there is a slim chance they might not notice or something, but you ruined it for everyone.. .. ARGH... #&%)# ... OOPYS ?? DAMN !!! all I can say is that you are a dumb$$.... nothing more than a pathetic dumba$$. Period..

 

[CoolMint]

naaa even if you wait till 2004 32" tvs arent gonna be this cheap

probably up to their old tricks again..inflating sales figures..report said figures..cancel orders
they always seem to have some messup (and always at 90% off not 92 not 95 but 90) around this time of year

OHHH PLEEASSEE....... Yea let's snap back to the REALITY here bro, if you don't want it so bad ,
why would a dumba$$ like "YOU" would be seriously enough to call the CSR this "LATE" and have them correct the shipping fee huh...
WOW i knew they ain't gonna honor the deal, so i better call them to change my shipping fee ... damn man that totally make sense huh ...

 

[BigPotato]

Preach on, brotha TurtleMan

What else is shortnugly? TROLLS.

 

[TurtleMan]

im sorry fellow anandtechers for the much cussin and much grammer errors in my replies..
but I just can not express how upset i was at that dude, superly totally ignorant and not thinking about others...
especially when he wrote the "OOPSY not my issue..".. that just sort of tipped me off ..
:| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :| :|

 

[paulieside]

hmmm... he ain't that dumb if he has some other motive... like trying to make sure amazon knows of the problem so they will shut down the link.. thus there will be less orders for Amazon to deal with.. raising the chance they will honor the mistake...

People get way too emotional over stuff like this.

Amazon has been in this business far too long to let deals like this "slip through". Notice that there are quite a large number (11 or so) of RCA products that are most likely mispriced. They also have about two weeks before they are even released. One person making a call to a CR isn't going to "ruin" anything for anybody.

Although I do agree that calling the CR doesn't better your chances of getting this deal.

Order your 4 or 5 TVs, sit back, and don't worry about it. They'll probably get cancelled, but it's kinda like playing the lottery.

P.S. - I got a gold box offer - "20 inch Animal Alley Green Velvet Frog - [Toy]" Envy me!

yap yap.. got kinda carried away =] oh well

 

[Bullhonkie]

Well I'm in for a pair, not that I'm expecting to see them at my doorstep or anything. It'll be fun to watch this all unfold at least.

On a sidenote, I finally got something halfway decent to show in my gold box. Fuji Finepix 2600 for $206.95. Not really that hot and I already have an A40 anyway, but it was nice to see something other than power tools and kitchen stuff for once.

 

[TurtleMan]

hahah since goldbox was out i havne't seen any decent thing in my box .. but beside the typical kitchen crap and power drill .

 

[udonoogen]

i was about to comment about the funny grammar, but thank you for the deal nonetheless. =) i wouldnt mind getting a new tv

 

[lRageATMl]

i don't understand why everyone is getting so upset.

they aren;t gonna honor it, it's still exists as the priced error...so just sit back and relax and expect a gift card (they did this last time as well). As for me, I'll keep wishing the 32inch True Flat went through for 149.99

 

[mboy]

What's their typical GC value in situation like this?

 

[AU Tiger]

I placed an order. Now I wait for the cancellation email

 

[RobsTV]

I too don't understand why some are getting upset.
Simply looks like they finally priced the RCA's at what they are worth!
It is not a pricing mistake, but instead a "pricing correction".
Don't worry, all will get the TV at the $99 price.
You will probably get your TV sooner, as they will be rushing out the orders, hoping that you don't see that even at $99 it's still an RCA

First thing I will do when I get mine is strip it down for parts to repair some of the new units waiting on parts in the shop.
I know better than to actually expect to keep the TV as a reliable unit.

 

[kansai999]

WOW.....RCA has 7 of the top ten items sold on Amaazon.
hahahahaha....like this would ever happen

 

[OrlandoTiger]

Well said RobsTV,but when it dies in 6 months we wont be able to complain as much since we stole it.Its too bad rca went downhill cause I kinda liked Nipper
