And the $50 GC won't even be active until 24hrs from now. sigh.
At least they haven't charged my CC yet.


Hopefully SD folks will start a riot or something.

Looks like you've been goosed.

The gift certificate would be okay if they didn't proceed to start selling the TV again multiple times throughout the day, including on ebay.

Looks pretty shady now... we'll see what the folks @ SD discover.

 

[manimal]

what if the gift certificate is fake and actually charges you?

Could be worse, could be Best Buy whose prices are so high that a $50 GC would bring them in line with the other retailers.

Black Friday is all part of the anti-poultry brigade's nefarious plot so supplant National Leftovers Day. The only way to win Black Friday is not to play - and staying home getting stuffed and watching football. Everyone knows this.

Huh.. I just ordered the same TV from another retailer for $100 more and I got to bed on time, didn't have to receive numerous emails about my order being canceled not canceled etc., and it will be here next week sometime. Guess I win.

Not really. I just typed that up to show the silliness of this whole deal.
