BOGO free at amazon
http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.htm...cId=1000041151
I added Soap season 3 and 4 to my cart and it ended up doing the promo for both and only charging me the $3.97 shipping. so i tried it again with 2 married with children seasons and it did it again. is it a mess up and they are gonna turn around and charge me full price or will they just charge the 3.97 |
umm, something doesn't seem to work right.... I picked up both seasons of Rescue Me. I selected free shipping....
Grand Total: $0.00 |
I think I figured out what it is doing. It is taking off the price of the cheapest dvd in the order twice.
|
so do you think they will catch it and change it?
should i cancel the orders now? |
the orders i placed are all in shipping soon status.
i can't cancel. |
dont kill this deal off, can you delete the post/edit?
yeah im greedy |
I can't say what they will do but I know they will notice. I can see the abuse factor of this being very large, very fast..... I only purchased titles I wanted and was ready to pay the B1G1 price they listed. I just wish they had S3 of Forever Knight on the sale.

I really doubt that amazon will give me these dvds for free..... |
What shipping did you use to get it to "shipping soon" status?

That's what I did. My orders came out to $1-$3 so it didn't look TOO bad. |

anyone got their confirmation email yet? and did the total cost match what they agreed to?
|
I just ordered Bewitched Season 3 and The Tick complete series for $10 shipped. This is the first time I have ever been in on one of these deals. Fingers crossed.
|
I gave it a shot on 2 seasons of Married... With Children. I also ordered 2 seasons of ALF anyway to bring my total to $45. Hope it goes through.
|
Ah, so this is why I couldn't sleep. Crazy if this goes through. I'm trying to recall how Amazon deals with mistakes like this...
|
I gave it a shot also:
1st order: Married...with Children Seasons 3 & 4 2nd order: Married...with Children Seasons 2 & 5 Total cost (w/shipping): ~$10. |
seinfeld season 3
seinfeld season 4 Items: $70.98 Shipping & Handling: $3.97 Promotion Applied: -$35.49 Promotion Applied: -$35.49 Total Before Tax: $3.97 Estimated Tax: $0.00 Order Total: $3.97 there is no way in hell this is going to work. |
Same deal for me - Ordered Rescue Me seasons 1 and 2, only charged me shipping. i have a feeling i'll be on the phone with them arguing to cancel this one soon

They will just cancel these if they do anything. In the past, Amazon generally catches things like this and cancels the orders. They can't charge more than what you agreed to pay. And there will be nothing to argue about, at least from our standpoint. Take a shot and let it go if it doesn't work out.
I ordered Rescue Me Seasons 1 and 2, and 2 copies of the Critic. Paid for 2-day shipping (about $7) for both orders, as in my experience, the people who seem to actually get these deals usually paid for expedited shipping. I think the free shipping orders will have a tough time working out, as Amazon moves pretty slowly with those orders. FWIW, both of my orders, placed this morning, are 'shipping soon'. |
seriously guys, someone should delete this thread.i know iam being selfish prick but what's best?:
1-some of us benefit? 2- or all of us get our orders cancelled? i think moderators should invent a new rule for this lol |

Didn't see much that I really wanted. Don't want to order any of these for the sake of getting something for free if I'm never going to watch them. I did order Riptide which I loved as a kid and haven't seen in years and added Blue thunder to it. Total was $1.96 with free shipping. I'm not going to be greedy and order anything else as I don't have much interest in the others and amazon may catch on if everyone abuses this.
|
Ah, what a nice flashback to the good old days of internet shopping. I chose free shipping, and my orders are 'shipping soon'. Thanks OP.
Concerning shipping options, choosing the fastest/most expensive shipping option isn't always the best choice. Back when Suncoast had the 'everything is $15' sale, most express mail orders were cancelled. |
Just placed an order for Dilbert complete season and The Critic complete series. $5 total! Let's see.

Thanks again OP for spreading the word in a way that is probably the model for informing others about a deal without drawing the attention of the fly-by deal plunderers. |
I ordered seaons 3 and 4 of Seinfeld and a book from my wishlist that had dropped in price. Chose standard shipping so totla was $8-something. Fingers crossed!
|
Worked for me also. Ordered both Rescue Me seasons. 2-Day Shipping. 7.49 Total
|
Just got a shipping confirmation for my first order. Thanks, OP.

With this deal being on the front page of the TV section, you have to wonder how many people, unaware of the glitch, are just randomly picking up stuff, and saving more. Not like its a glitch you have to manipulate. Its just there.
