Best of Ed Sullivan Show 6 DVD Pre Order - $8.99 Amazon PM

An obvious price error, the MSRP for this is $60, with a release date of 5/12/2015. Time-Life is putting out this set.

BestBuy.com has this also for the same price which leads me to believe that Amazon price matched them.

Placed an order thru Amazon, figuring they will honor the price as opposed to BB.com.

there's 2 different listings for the ed sullivan set on amazon and other sites with different prices. I'm not sure the difference.

Curiously, I checked DeepDiscount; They have the set for $10.70 with the list price at $12.95 for UPC 610583503395:

It's deja vu all over again, as in the Bilko set.

The Time-Life website has it, & this is just part of a bigger package, or may I say, re-package:

I ordered it as well and knowing Amazon, I think they will honor it just like they did with the Bilko set from a few months ago.

Looks like there are two upcoming Ed Sullivan releases: a single disc and a 6 disc set. Amazon has the single disc listed separately (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00SCDXS9W/), so I would guess the odds are good that you'll get the 6 disc set.

I ordered it, the listing shows 6 discs, I'll let you know around 5/12 when I get it.

the UPC of the 1 Disc on Amazon is 610583504699 Here: http://www.amazon.com/Best-Ed-Sulliv...+Sullivan+Show

What I was wondering is does anyone know if the UPC of the 6 Disc IS 610583503395. Is it possible the UPCs are mixed up on Amazon's site cuz you can't really tell from BBY's site what the markdown is and DD has the MSRP of 3395 UPC as 12.95. At least with Amazon CS, I could probably get the item returned rather easily since it lists 6 discs.

The reason I ask is DD was the only one to fulfill Bilko last time and they will probably fulfill this misprice as well. I just don't want to get stuck with the 1Disc version since DD is so hard to return stuff to.

When I first posted this deal, DD had only posted for UPC 610583503395. Since then, they have posted for UPC 610583487794, & it is the 6 pack:

http://www.deepdiscount.com/ed-sulli...w/610583487794

In short, go for Amazon.

I got my order of Bilko from Amazon Canada. Amazon.com also fulfilled orders for Naken City. I expect this one to come through, and if you get the single disk, I'm sure I amazon will return it for free if you tell them the description was wrong.

I'm with JoeDoakes... I, too, got Bilko from Amazon Canada with no issues (other than being ~4 weeks late) and Naked City from Amazon US. I'd stick with Amazon as a return would be very easy should it not be the 6 disc version (unlike DD who makes it so hard you'll give up rather than try).

This whole thing is getting more confusing by the minute but still leaving my order intact as on the Amazon site, they have a new cover art but the description still reads as a 6-DVD set for $8.99 so we'll see what happens as it comes out in a month's time.

And Amazon now shows this as a one disc set. Time to cancel.

Yeah I can't cancel mine outright because I ordered it with some other stuff to get FSSS. Good thing I screen capped the original listing in case they give me any grief when I call.

Wonder if I should let it ride and then complain later and get the 6 Disc. Either way, I'm going to have to contact CS, which is a pain.

They've also replaced that original link/offer with the actual single disc version at another link/listing. I'd bet the original link will never come back "live." That makes it a waiting game for those who do not just cancel. As I tend to think it's still possible to receive the 6 disc version and, for now, that's what my order shows so I'll keep it open...

I kinda figured this was too good to be true. The only question in my mind was whether Amazon would honor, cancel or just ship the wrong product. They've been known to do any of the above, depending on the phase of the moon. Our age of SKU's/UPC's has caused as many problems as it has solved.

I have my butt covered as well with the help of one of their reps and saved the transcript e-mail as well when all of this was going down, to make sure I can get the 6 DVD set at the bargain price, but we'll know good and well within a month's time.

I'm going to leave my order out there and cross my fingers that I get the 6 disc set that I originally thought I was getting.

The delisted listing is now showing 6 DVDs again so I'm rolling the dice on it and keeping the preorder.
