R.E.M. "And I Feel Fine" 2 CD Set & "When The Light Is Mine" DVD - $14.99 @ Amazon
Since Best Buy screwed up in the wording on this deal in this week's ad, leave it to Amazon to screw it up anyway. ;-)
Amazon is offering both the "And I Feel Fine..." double-CD set and "When The Light Is Mine" DVD collection for a combined price of $29.98.
However, when you place the combo deal in your cart and proceed to the checkout page, the deal comes across as $14.99 in the upper right of as:
Item(s) Subtotal: $31.98
Shipping & Handling: $0.00
Best Value Savings: $-16.99
Best Value Savings: $0.00
-----
Total Before Tax: $14.99
Estimated Tax: $0.00
-----
Grand Total: $14.99
(I'm in the Amazon Prime trial deal right now, but it does appear that it will qualify for Free Super Saver as well since it is initially over $25 -- but YMMV.)
So essentially the DVD is free.

I picked up the double cd today....great song selection and package. Well worth it...to be able to get the DVD too for the same price I paid at BB for the double cd would been a home run....great deal

Thanks for the deal, but it's clearly a mistake. To make matters worse, the DVD is a pre-order. I ordered it and would be thrilled if it came through but I wouldn't be at all suprised if it gets cancelled.
(Also if I had found this deal I probably would have kept it quiet since the more orders are placed, the quicker it gets cannned and then the orders get cancelled -- but that's just me and I don't mean to sound ungrateful. Thanks for the info, I do hope this pans out for all of us, but I'm hanging onto my just-purchased Best Buy copy and receipt just in case.)

I too just ordered mine - thanks for the heads up! $14.99 delivered (except mine says won't even ship until 09-25 which is 13 days away!)... hope they don't catch what seems like it has to be an error!

Now the wait begins. historically they've always caught these mistakes after a few sneak through.

it appears that it won't work any more! in fact it looks like you can't even order the dvd at all! it says: Important Message
We're sorry. The item R.E.M. - When the Light is Mine... The Best of the I.R.S. Years 1982-1987 Video Collection is no longer available from the seller you selected

I'm in my prime promo still, so I picked free 2 day shipping and "as soon as possible"...they already shipped my CDs apparently. EDIT: to be clear, and NOT the DVD.
Surely it's not acceptable for them to not send the DVD and charge me the full $14.99?
After all, I've got the confirmation email that says my total is 14.99, and the Order Status page also still says "Grand Total 14.99"
Hmm.
I hope this isn't going to get troublesome...I'm willing to accept them catching the error and refusing, but this seems like it could almost get fraudulent...especially since I can't cancel the DVD since it is "being prepared for shipment"...hmmmmmmm...
