Thanks Ribbet....but....none of these orders are going to be honored. Some people may dream that they will....but they won't. BTW: That was a joke about the 100 or so orders, it's called s-a-r-c-a-s-m.....ok?

Zwingle...

Of course it was s-a-r-c-a-s-m, as was my historical comment @ 164 units and Harvey and Caroline. Sheesh. Calm down; let's enjoy the fun that follows -- it's already started.

I guess the best we could hope for would be some consolation prize, maybe a $20 gift certificate for sony products. Sony can afford that.

I called the 800 number to order one. I was told it was a typo and they were correcting this &quot;issue&quot;. The CSR then informed me to look at the legal section to read their disclaimer about typos and the like. It just so happens that I could not access that part of their page because it had been taken down. I then proceeded to get treated like dirt for pointing out the pricing error. I was just gonna let it be, but the way I was treated really offends me. Anyway I printed out the web page and saved the page and a screen shot to my hard drive. I think I might try to call and talk to someone with a little more manners and a better attitude.
But Zwingle is right, unfortunately none of these orders will be honored.

I really don't get it.. Why would ppl even call them in the first place?? Of course they're gonna say it's a typo and they won't honor the price. I think most of us were hoping that the ppl (warehouse guys) that ships the order don't really pay attention to the order total.. Well our hopes are shrinking.. i guess. But who cares..

I didn't order. Simply because I know that this deal will not be honored.

Lotsa fun... I got in about 20 minutes ago... was it the Deep Purple song that said? &quot;it's not the kill, it's the thrill of the chase.&quot; The chances are near 0 but remember that United Airlines honored some online bookings to Europe for next to nothing this past spring. A lot of us got $20 gift certificates from Viking-Amazon.. The waiting begins.....

I never thought that they were going to honor it....but I also live by the saying &quot;It never hurts to ask&quot;.
The only reason I called is because I prefer to interact with a human rather than throw my credit card out on the net.
I am pissed at the way I was treated for simply asking. After she pissed me off, she refused to let me talk with a supervisor, and refused to give me her name, or any piece of ID so I could complain about how rude she was. I hate companies like this that just shove you around till you go away. My anger with Sony right now is based more on the principal of customer service than trying to squeeze a good deal out of them.

Yes, that is funny....I love threads like this. Seeing all these people get excited, only to have them get their hopes dashed the next day.

I totally agree, it's quite amusing.

Do any of you old timers remember the pandemonium that surrounded the infamous &quot;find the bunny get $100 off at Computers4Sure.com&quot; fiasco? We didn't post the URL but I offered to e-mail it to anyone that wanted it. After all the AT Hot Dealers and lurkers were finished I had replied to over 2,700 e-mails requesting the URL to the &quot;bunny&quot;. Of course no one received the $100 discount but man the bunny thread went from 1 to about 300 posts within an hour. We were bringing AT and C4Sure down to their knees.

Ah the good 'ole days ...
