(DEAD) Walmart.com price mistake?

They have a 60.00 box set I want for only 3.00. I know this is a mistake. Do you actually think they will ship it?

Huh.. do you mean there's a $60 set mispriced for $3.00?

I think this should be in the bargains forum.

They honored the Cary Grant signature collection several months back for $15 or so; I picked up two

Damn. Walmart.com does not ship to Canada. I would have tried this one for sure.

DOH! I should have thought to change the title before moving it. Oh well, maybe one of the bargin forum mods will do it. Anyway to answer the question I've had mixed results w/ Walmart.com. I think 2 or the 3 times I've tried to "cash in" on a misprice it's worked.

I hope it works. I just don't want them trying to charge my credit card the normal price if they realize they made an error. Is that possible?

I think it should be ok. I believe Walmart will cancel the order, rather than charge you full price.

Now they sure as hell won't honor it once they notice 1k+ orders.

The one time it didn't work they just cancelled the order.

Gave it a try. Not expecting anything, but I can use the excitement of a misprice.

The Jerimiah Season 1 deal was alive for a long time. It even went in and out of stock many times before they corrected it. I wouldn't worry about it. Even shipped it would be less that $10, so unless you're getting greedy and ordering a bunch I don't think it would be an issue even if they charged you upfront, which i don't think they do.
