Just printed out my "Order Confirmation" page.. Alrite..my fingers are crossed.. Doubt they'll ship it but hey it's worth a try. Anyone know what the exact law is about honoring their prices? (even if they said they're not responsible for typo's)

Yo2....you are wrong about them having to honor the price. The disclaimer does just what it intends to do. Because websites CAN be hacked, they are protected by the disclaimer. Even bait and switch has to be proven as does false advertising, which is rarely done. Trust me.....the only time a site has ever honored a price is when they wanted to pacify the customers and could afford to do so. Which is also rare. We all have seen these typo deals come and go. Sometimes a few orders slip by, but most do not. Amazon is good about consolation prizes being given i.e. Gift certificate or something of that nature. But if you want to look stupid, go ahead and call a lawyer and try to sue. Even in print advertisments where there are usually no disclaimers, the store could tell you there was a misprint and the newspaper prints a correction in a blurb in the middle of the paper that no one ever sees. Mistakes happen, to err is human....give it up.

Somebody please explain why people even bother posting &quot;hot deals&quot; such as this one. I think it is blatantly obvious to anyone with even half of a brain that Sony will in no way honor this price. &quot;Deals&quot; like these serve only to clutter up this otherwise excellent forum.

All you &quot;Nay-sayers&quot; are probably right on this.

But then, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I ordered just in case.

I just pray it will be front of my door, won't care $100 rebate.

Sony made enough money from PS1. I won't care how much it will loss, I will bite it if I have chance.

Hahaha, you hopeful ones sound just like the people who jumped on the $50 Visor Edge deal a month or two ago. What ever happened to them??

Screenshot of receipt.

*To the ppl that are starting to sound too serious about this: Ah.. I think we know* that this is probly not gonna go thru.. but hey it's worth a try. (even if there's only a 0.0000000001% chance of succeeding) So chill peeps. Afterall, most of us don't got anything better to do.. otherwise we wouldn't be on here.

WOW! Man guys....was I wrong....I just called Sony and they said this price was good and that would only honor the first 100 or so orders, it is some sort of test on the traffic they could get to the site in an hours time.





Yeah right!

This isn't the same level but I remember people ordering 1,000 Staples attache cases and others ordering 800, 600, 200 and they all got theirs. Even though they were crappy bags 1,000 bags retails for $46000 retail, which is kinda hot. They guy who posted this deal says he and his buddies got a few so why isn't it worth trying if you are one of the first one's? I say it's worth the try.

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.
