Guess I shouldn't have waited on this deal... I was pondering it way too long. Oh well. Good luck getting them honored! My hunch is this will go through. It's not a blatant misprice. It's not like you're paying 10 bucks. These prices might go unnoticed, so I bet you'll all get them.

Should have ordered first and pondered later. You can always cancel it.

Greetings from Amazon.com.

We regret to inform you that an error caused some titles to be
displayed at an incorrect price on our web site.

In accordance with our posted policies on pricing, we are unable to
offer these items for the incorrectly posted prices. Therefore, we
have cancelled the following item from your order:

Cheers: Four Season Pack

At any given time, despite our best efforts, a small number of the
millions of items on our site may be mispriced. We do, however, verify
prices as part of our shipping procedures. If we discover that an
item's correct price is higher than our stated price, we will, at our
discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or
cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation. This policy is
posted in the Help section and is accessible through numerous other
areas of our web site.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We value your business and hope that you will give us a chance to
serve you again in the future.

Sincerely,

I expect the Frasier orders will get cancelled next if Amazon isn't going to honor the Cheers orders.

I just recieved the cancellation notice. Oh well. It was worth a try. Personally, I don't have any hard feelings when businesses don't honor things that would make them lose money. I knew what I was getting into when I placed my order.

I never received the email, but on my Share The Love page it tells me that the person who sent me the discount had their order cancelled, so mine was as well.

Same here. Oh well. I figured it might be a misprice, so this wasn't a surprise.

same here! i would imagine all they would have to do was cancel a couple of dozen who "shared the love" and the chain reaction would take out quite a few of the other orders.

After reading all of this, I checked my order status and it was gone! They cancelled my Cheers 4 pack. I didn't get an email notification until the next day.

Anyone have their Frasier order cancelled? So far it appears Amazon is only cancelling Cheers orders.

I just checked my Frasier order this afternoon and it was missing from my order history. Haven't received any email confirming the cancellation yet.

Now to see how they handle the $30 off the order I was supposed to get by signing up for their credit card.

I will not be ordering from anything from Amazon for quite some time. My business will go elsewhere.

Probably until the next time they make a pricing error and you can try to get something really cheap.

First time ever I ordered something from them with any "pricing errror." My assumption was that it was legit. Speak for yourself, because I know you'd be there ordering.

I am very disappointed too. They also cancelled mine, then added shipping to the other items in the order. To me, a pricing error is when you have digits backwards, or a decimal in the wrong place. They had this advertised for days at this price. They should have honored the price. I will try to buy my poducts elsewhere as well. But unfortunately they do have great prices.
