You're right. He said he'd owe $1600 at the B1G1 prices. If there were 54 orders that works out to about $30/set.
I'm not really surprised that Amazon would call him if they are out $1600. I'm sure getting a phone call would spur a lot of people to send the sets back.

It's not like they called him out of the blue. They were just following up on his previous conversation with them.

Also, were there even 108 different sets available during the promotion?

yet at the wishes of the thread stayed out of the discussion? Might want to go
back and reread the posts to find the answer if it isn't already obvious.

So, has anyone that placed orders with this heard ANYTHING from Amazon at all in the last week or so? It's now been 8 days after they said they were going to charge people. So far nobody has said a word about Amazon contacting or charging them.

I have not heard anything from Amazon since the last email saying my credit card would get charged February 2 if I didn't return the DVDs. I assume they are not going to do anything since there hasn't been any further correspondence, and I didn't place a large volume of orders.

nothing happening here which I'm not really that surprised about. It appears as if it was some "bullying" tactic attempted by Amazon that might have worked on some.

I'll take the latter, but that's just me.

It was Amazon's mistake. Their fault, not his.

I was just charged for my orders. But I payed with my Paypal debit/credit card, and I see Paypal instantly denied all the charges.
And I had money in there too...
No emails from Amazon either.

If they're charging small orders, then they might be knocking on xNightfallx's door soon. I'm sure that account is a bright spot on their radar. This whole scenario could get interesting.
