OT - Deal of the century?

This site obviously f'ed up the price on this TV. $19.99 + $164 shipping. Amazon sells it for $1,799.

I just ordered one. Figure worst thing that could happen would be being hassled to get a CC refund.

I'm just hoping that the shipping is automated and they send them out w/out actually looking at the price.

I know, its a longshot, but crazier things have happened.

Does this company have to honor a purchase?

I would love to pull the trigger. I wonder if they have some policy ......subject to final approval or something.

How will I know whether or not my order has been approved for credit and shipped?

When you place your order on the Internet, your credit card is not "billed" until your order is actually shipped from our warehouse. Most orders are approved for credit; if there are any problems, our credit department will attempt to get approval from your credit card provider first, without bothering you. Otherwise, the credit department will email you and let you know as soon as possible so you can decide on another method of payment. Registered users may also log in to their account and follow the live order status through Authorization, verification, Sent to warehouse and shipped.

From their website:

Order Acceptance

Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. We reserve the right, at any time after receipt of your order but prior to shipment, to accept or decline your order for any or no reason. We reserve the right, at any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item. We may need to verify any information you provide before we accept an order.

Item availability and prices for all products sold at www.etronics.com are subject to change without notice. We reserve the right to limit quantities on certain items. (Price changes will not be retroactively applied to any outstanding or completed orders.)

One more thing:

Errors & Omissions

In the event a product is listed at an incorrect price due to an error, Etronics reserves the right to refuse or cancel any order placed for products listed at the incorrect price. Etronics shall have the right to refuse or cancel any such order whether or not the order has been confirmed and your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your order is canceled, Etronics shall issue a credit refund to your credit card account in the amount of the incorrect price and the product order will be cancelled.

Having said all of that, I'm still tempted to pull the trigger on this thing and hope they don't catch it (like that would happen).

WharfRat+ · Mar 24, 2006

Like I said, its a longshot.

There's no way they can charge you the full price, or keep your shipping costs or anything. Once you order, you get an order confirmation number that you can print out with the price of $19.99 + shipping.

I'm not expecting this to arrive at my front door, but you never know, we could get LUCKY!

I really don't even want to waste my time doing this, but it reminds me of the one commercial where the girl scout girl is selling raffle tickets for a new car and the guy tells her ya right. The neighbor pulls up later with a new car laughing about winning a car just buying a stupid raffle ticket. .

Shoulda, Coulda, Eastwoulda!!!!!!!!!!!

So if this does go through, please don't tell me!:drink:
