He also claimed that he was joking, which is how I took his post. I guess he should have put a wink smilie at the end.

I ordered this last night around 6PM...right before that one guy ordered 100 of them. I'm positive this will be canceled.

Due to peer pressure I ordered one

I was able to place an order for one. So far it is still in the processing state.

Been reading that people have been getting cancellation emails.

I was one of the first to order this and no e-mail.

No email here, either. I fully expect it to be canceled, though.

Yeah no kidding. Got my cancellation email, but the charge is on my check card showing as pending. It'll come off, but still, you'd think if they were gonna cancel/deny a purchase they would do so before charging you. Oh well. Worth a shot.

Hey, I got this email. WTF.

Dear Valued Best Buy For Business Customer,

We regret to inform you that since you actually thought you were going to get a Samsung BD-P1000 - Blu-Ray disc player for basically nothing, we decided to keep the $18 and shipping charges.

If you have any questions, feel free to call our Customer Support Team at 800-373-3050. Please have your order number ready when calling.

DVD Polizei, that's a joke, right? Right?

If not, that has to be the most hilarious email I've seen. Illegal, but hilarious. I'd be pissed if it has been me but I would just have called and been all like "Hey, I had to try, now please refund the charge!"
