Speak up guys.

No, why bother. They were never gonna honor this once they found out and no one should expect then to. If you got one shipped, fine. But if you're gonna have to wqrk your butt off just to get a consolation gift certificate then I don't see the hot deal anymore.

Shall we start flooding their customer service with different stories before they reply us with the price mistake excuse.

Stories.
...
I was on hy-way about 100 miles on my labor day vacation and my son called me to order one and I drove all the way back to place this order. And you better not disappoint me on this one.
....


Come on guys come up with the top story......


If you want to see the 36' inch you have to keep other things at 3 inch for a while and work out only on this one.

I guess I 'm going nuts with this crazy deals.

its not gonna work. Amazon.com seems to have updated the prices. The $99 36" is now priced at 849.99. The CC employee will call amazon.com over the phone and try to verify the price.


well, the wait is over. Lets see how amazon handles this. You also have to remember that there are dozens of other deals sites and forums (as hard as it may to believe ;)) so the likelihood of them giving it to all of us for the $99 price is pretty low.

The sales rank on it is also 1, was 8 last night when I ordered mine.

People that say Amazon might not notice...well....if something moves from not selling at all..to number one seller in a day...people notice. The WMF Silverware did the same thing. I ordered it hoping I would not get the TV, but a gift certificate or something of that nature.

Don't any of you remember the SEVERAL times this has happened, and the misprice was not honored? And yet there's "hope I get it!"... do you guys still believe in the tooth fairy too? :p

I didn't even bother, and they certainly won't fill it. However, I did get in on the 1GB of Viking ram for like $28 a while back and they did give me a $10 GC, good for a DVD.

I was just looking on the Amazon website.....and I found this.....

If an item's correct price is lower than our stated price, we charge the lower amount and ship you the item. If an item's correct price is higher than our stated price, we will, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before shipping or cancel your order and notify you of such cancellation

I want my.... I want my ....Amazon, TV's! ok, bad joke.
