Walmart is currently showing it as "NOT AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME." It looks like the mistake was caught by them and Amazon. Will they honor it?

hilts

You talking about when they were shipping out boatloads of product priced at 0.00? Want to open up that "price mistake" conversation again? Apples and oranges. Let's try bashing Amazon for something within reason.

Walmart hasn't canceled the Weeds orders. It showed that when they corrected that one awhile ago.

I kept all 30 sets and didn't pay a dime.

When Amazon attempted to 'double charge' me, I simply contacted my credit card company and they immediately removed the additional charges.

John Sinnott

Or disputed the second charge with your credit card and kept the free sets. That's what most people did (at least on the thread here).

Amazon has been pretty good in the past about sending out price mistakes, though they have canceled some. Since there's still a week before the street date, I'm think Bob's right and they'll just cancel the orders. We'll see soon enough.

Walmart listing now says Out of Stock Online, their usual listing when correcting a pricing error. The price is now over $152.

Checked my order status @ WM and still says "Processing" and order will arrive between 11/12 & 11/14!...We will see...to be continued!

Looks like they're honoring it.

My back-and-forth with Walmart.com:

ME:
On October 20th, I pre-ordered the NAKED CITY COMPLETE SERIES DVD set online through your site for a total price of $29.65. I now see this same set on your site priced at $152.98 and listed as 'Out Of Stock Online'. I'm wondering if you will honor the original price. If not, please advise ASAP, and I will cancel my order.

Thank you for your attention.

WM:
We are glad to look into this matter. If your request is to place a new order for the Naked City: The Complete Series (Full Frame); Format: DVD and provide you the $25.48 price, we are sorry to inform you that we can not provide you that price for future orders, since the set is now $152.98.

Regarding your order, it is still processing and should arrive no later than November 11.

If you have any questions, please reply to this email or call us at 1-800-966-6546.

ME:
Thank you for your quick response. Just so we're clear, My order was already placed on Oct 20, when the DVD set was advertised as $25.48. My question is: when it finally ships, will I be charged the original price of $25.48 (plus tax & shipping), or will I be charged the current price?
=====
WM:
Thank you for contacting us, that is exactly was has been recorded under your account for that order specifically.

Thank you.

If you have additional questions, please reply to this email or call us at 1-800-966-6546.

15 yards for bananna taunting, you turd. I cancelled my WM order and left all my eggs in Amazon's basket. So far, my eggs are intact.

BobO'Link

You actually contacted them!!??!!

Rule #1 on possible price mistakes: You *NEVER* contact the merchant until *after* shipment!

thetao

I tend to agree...let sleeping dogs lie. Although I feel a bit like dancing right now myself!

Rule #2 on possible price mistakes: You *NEVER* contact the merchant until *after* shipment!!!!!!!

Save the banana dance until the set is in hand. I'll believe it when I'm holding it.

Cardsfan111

I can't believe that EarlB sent a note about the order. Then, sent a 2nd note just to make sure.

brainee

As we're sitting here, the chain of command is having the customer service rep contact their supervisor. Who is currently thinking of ways to get out of taking such a big loss.

That'sAllFolks

Since they raised the price back up, I'm sure they already knew they had alot of orders at the misprice. I doubt EarlB's letter would sway them any way.

smurr05

I have my eggs in BOTH baskets!!!

Classic Films

I am sure several people contacted Walmart that didn't post about it. I guess he is concerned that they would ship the product and charge the corrected price. I doubt they would do that but if they did you can return it or refuse delivery. In any case you are not going stop people from doing what they want by saying on a board that they should not do it. I am sure there were people who called before ordering and said to Walmart "This price seems very cheap. Are you really selling this for under $26.00 ?" There are people who think it is dishonest to take advantage of a price error.

mrcellophane

Just got a shipping confirmation from Wal-Mart with the price I paid and a tracking number. Yay!

JohnBeas

Same here!
BUT heres something strange - when I check the status of the FedEx shipping notice it comes up with a shipment that was already shipped and received from 6/5/13!
Maybe FedEx reuses its shipping notice #'s and its not able to be tracked yet (email says it may take 48 hours to get correct tracking info)?

dex14

Shipment notice received. Price honored.

ChipHP

Ditto ...

Cardsfan111

Same as others. Shipping notice received with arrival date estimated as November 14th. And a FedEx tracking # that says it was delivered in June.

Trevor

Good news here as well!

bacigalup

Same here!!
