You are correct. The price is $24.96. The $15.00 is for the other 7 titles. The ad is simular to other store ads. They want you to come to the store to see the price.

Okay, I can see what you're saying now, but I've honestly never been to a walmart b&m store where you could preorder things. They usually don't even have the item # in their systems yet. And if you try bringing that in the day it comes out they could tell you that it's not from the current ad.

I'm not sure if there's any way you can get in on this deal if you've already missed it.

Re: Iron Man 2 Combo Pack - $15 at Walmart.com

you guys should check your orders.
Mine now says canceled by Wal-Mart because of a "lack of product availability"

um.....lame? If you want to blame a mis-pricing error, fine...but lack of availability on THAT title? I think not

I'll try emailing customer service and see what happens. I'm not going to hold out hope, but it's worth a shot.

Yeah, right. "Limited Availability", but you can order it at a higher price I bet. Just admit you made a price mistake Wal-mart, instead of this lying about availability.

No, really! The largest retailer in the country can't get ahold of copies of one of the bigger releases of the year. What's not to believe?

Yeah, I got the e-mail too.

I e-mailed them...not like they care. Exactly why I don't shop at the store that has no English speaking employees when I go in.

I saved the printout yesterday. Hopefully I can score Target Metalpak for $15.

I'm going to call them tomorrow. Not that I think it will matter, but if they're going to pull this shit I'm going voice my feelings. It's still listed @ $15 in their weekly ad. I don't think it was a mistake, I just think they sold too many and don't want to honor it.

Re: Iron Man 2 Combo Pack - $15 at Walmart.com

Here's the thing, just say it was a price mistake and everyone can walk away disappointed, but understanding.

To give the bs excuse they are is just insulting to my intelligence and I don't like getting treated like...well...a Wal Mart customer.

Re: Iron Man 2 Combo Pack - $15 at Walmart.com

I just got off the phone with "customer support" and they're saying that this was a glitch on the site. It wasn't EVER supposed to be this price. I asked why everybody got a different reason on their cancellation e-mails. She told me that it was a generic e-mail, which completely didn't answer my question, so I asked why I wasn't told the reason reason. "Well, I just told you the real reason" Yeah, but I had to call you to get the straight answer. How is that not just bs'ing your way out of a price?

They just simply don't care. Granted, they're Wal-Mart, so they couldn't care less about getting you a good customer experience.

Edit: Thanks for that info, Gizmo. I just printed off a PDF of the site showing $15 and I'll call them again tomorrow.

Re: Iron Man 2 Combo Pack - $15 at Walmart.com

Just emailed them my "calling bs on the whole situation" response. I know it won't do any good, but it let me vent a bit while typing.

I told them that those who received a confirmation email on our preorders should be able to go to the store on release day with email in hand, walk up to a pallet FULL of these Blu-rays, and have that price honored since there won't be limited availabilty then.
