Probably a price mistake but there's always the slim chance it will go through

taken from SD

[flizmo007]

In for 1. Worth a shot. THanks OP and SD!

[gigan54]

In for 1. Worth a shot. THanks OP and SD!

same here. I hope it pulls through. thanks for posting this OP!

[Doylerulez]

I'll give it a try.

I can't help but notice the text on the cover reminds me of Harry Potter.

[soonersfan60]

Thanks, OP. Awesome if this goes thru (and the $30 MP8). I'll have some cheap Wii fun!

[chakan]

It won't go through because of the asshat who ordered 78 to get free shipping.

In for 1 just in case!

[shipwreck]

Sure, why not. If it's terrible I can always trade it in if this actually goes through.

[mattstockton12]

I'm in for one as well. I'm sure the game will end up sucking like all the other recent Sonics, but even if it does I'm sure I can offload it in a trade or on ebay for at least what I'm paying for it (prolly more).

[mattstockton12]

On a side note...who the hell charges 9 bucks to ship a game? Eep.

[flybrione]

Im in for 1!

[Santurio]

in for one.............I hope

[oddfella]

Im in. Only cost $12 for me too :)

[botticus]

Why not... still haven't gotten charged by Google Checkout for my $25 Mario Party 8 order; at this rate I might have my entire spring Wii catalog purchased on price mistakes.

Thanks OP!

[maxflight]

got one, thanks for the head's up!

[Dragonsbane]

I have never ordered from these guys before. Reputable?

[richieyoo]

hope this works

[drawingboard]

In for one. Thanks OP. I can see the lame apology email coming after they cancel it though.

[AJDWCC]

Has anyone called the number, to find out if the price is right?

[mrbungler]

In for one. We shall see.....

[Prepster]

Last time they had a price mistake the orders were canceled, but I'm crossing my fingers anyways and in for 1 :)

[rocknrollpart5]

hope for the best. if it doesn't go through...eh.

[Wanderlai]

In for 1.

[randomguy132]

Hopefully.

[soonersfan60]

Has anyone called the number, to find out if the price is right?

Why would you do that? Hoping it should be cheaper?

[ofacto]

Has anyone called the number, to find out if the price is right?

First rule for any deal. DO NOT CALL!!!

You don't want to tip them off so they can fix it. However since this game doesn't come out for a while, PC connection will probably catch it [the price mistake] themselves.

[bballplaya210]

thanks, it's worth a shot

[kjauburn]

In for 1 as well. We all know these types of deals are hit or miss, might as well roll the dice...

[aliberry5983]

Placed an order and they cancelled it becouse of wrong price !They actually called me and said this was an error

[Ndolger]

Yay, I'm finally up for a price mistake.

[botticus]

Placed an order and they cancelled it becouse of wrong price !They actually called me and said this was an errorThat was quick. If they're going to handle it on an individual basis like that, I'll look forward to my order slipping through the cracks. :D

[Oxybeles]

Placed an Order, but shipping practically kills the deal. hehe

[soonersfan60]

Placed an order and they cancelled it becouse of wrong price !They actually called me and said this was an error

This order for Sonic got cancelled or another PC Connection order in the past was cancelled? Since you got a call so quickly, I'll take it as a good sign that I didn't get a call. :D

[DREDD2912]

In for one...

[doc005]

im in for one

[drawingboard]

I'm guessing another deal, since this one is still $6.42 in their system.

[Docman]

Think we should digg this? Power behind numbers?

[Havoc1701]

Ahh, why the hell not... In for one!!!

)-(

[shipwreck]

Think we should digg this? Power behind numbers?

No, that would just kill the deal quicker and would make it even more likely that they would realize that this is a price mistake.

[Oxybeles]

Canceled...Darn Fast they are!

Check the details of your order on the Order Status Page and you will see that it is canceled!

[dstan]

I'm in. Doesn't seem like it's gonna pan out, but can't hurt to try.

I rarely ever post here, but I gotta say this place is great.

[soonersfan60]

And if there are only a few 100 people who got the pricing error (say, only CAGs) then they might let it go through, but if 1000's of people get it (say, SD/FW/Digg) then they probably would not take that big a hit and thus cancel all the orders. Numbers are bad !

[rscaramelo]

I'm in for one too. I hope it works.

RC

[boyward]

Ordered, been looking forward to this game. Thank you!

[botticus]

Canceled...Darn Fast they are!

Check the details of your order on the Order Status Page and you will see that it is canceled!Mine's still open.

[Bazz]

I'm in for one , will try and see doubt it though.

[Bazz]

cancelled in 2 seconds.

[drawingboard]

My status is still open. How can they cancel it when the game is still coming up for that price? You think they'd fix that first.

[meh]

Some douchebag on SD ordered 500.

[mrbungler]

Damn. Cancelled as well. :-(

[AJDWCC]

Some douchebag on SD ordered 500.

what is SD?

[botticus]

what is SD?Slickdeals. Where the OP got the link.

Order still open!

[sonderiaom]

Damn, Cancelled, they're fast.

[waxHead]

I just placed an order, and by the time I checked the status on it, it was cancelled. Good luck for everyone who hasn't had theirs cancelled yet!

[drawingboard]

Slickdeals. Where the OP got the link.

Order still open!
Still open here, too. Hopefully they honor the first x amount of people who ordered it.

[TheEvilMonkey]

Thanks op, I appreciate the effort even if some douchebags inevitably have to go and ruin the whole deal. Haven't people heard of looking a gift horse in the mouth?

[Docman]

Cancelled
Fighting it out over the phone

[soonersfan60]

Mine's still open, too. :D

Why are people morons and order 500? You know they aren't going to get that many anyway...

[waxHead]

Cancelled
Fighting it out over the phone

Let us know how that goes ;)

[Docman]

Digging this to create an uproar

[soonersfan60]

Digging this won't help. Hopefully they are smart enough to fix the price.

[botticus]

Digging this to create an uproarNot really necessary.

[Docman]

Guy in the phone told me that they will not honor my order, Told me that they don't have to, and ohio (thats where they are located) law does not apply to them

[Roufuss]

Digging this to create an uproar

And you people were worried about Slickdeals?

This is about 100 times worse.

[botticus]

Guy in the phone told me that they will not honor my order, Told me that they don't have to, and ohio (thats where they are located) law does not apply to themMost online retailers will not honor price mistakes.

[crewj]

in for one

[drawingboard]

Digging this to create an uproar
:roll:

[drawingboard]

And you people were worried about Slickdeals?

This is about 100 times worse.
Exactly. Its very un-CAG like, and very pro-SD like.

[shipwreck]

Docman, you need to calm down with all this calling and Digging. This is clearly a price mistake and PCConnection has every reason to cancel the orders. We've seen this type of thing a million times before on CAG and this is no different than any other company that cancels orders when the mistake is found.

[Roufuss]

Exactly. Its very un-CAG like, and very pro-SD like.

Not even SD is dumb enough to digg things since that will, for sure, kill it for everyone.

[un_plug]

Cncelled 10 seconds after ordering. yeah I think this got killed by the @ssh*les ordering 100's.

[kjauburn]

Guy in the phone told me that they will not honor my order, Told me that they don't have to, and ohio (thats where they are located) law does not apply to them

Who wants to bet Docman creates the PC Connection Sucks thread by the end of the day?

[Docman]

Just a little peeved, A great deal that does not get honorored, even though they are required to do so

[Docman]

I didn't digg it, Don't worry, I just was a little disapointed
I'll drop it now. i don't want to be a hindurance on the community

[botticus]

I'm starting to get mildly optimistic that my order will go through. Who else is still alive and kicking?

[lawdood]

Just a little peeved, A great deal that does not get honorored, even though they are required to do so

No they're not, please just stop and move on...life will continue.

[Docman]

Well, I did not digg it, but someone else did,

http://www.digg.com/tech_deals/Sonic_and_the_Secret_Rings_Game_for_Wii_6_42_deals lut_com

Someone called DealFinder

[shipwreck]

I'm starting to get mildly optimistic that my order will go through. Who else is still alive and kicking?

I don't want to say what the state of my order is so that I don't jinx it. :lol:

[DustBoogie]

I'm starting to get mildly optimistic that my order will go through. Who else is still alive and kicking?

My order's still listed as open, and I haven't received a cancellation email.

Yet.

[Docman]

No they're not, please just stop and move on...life will continue.

I did, Dropped and hunting for new deals... Life goes on

[botticus]

I don't want to say what the state of my order is so that I don't jinx it. :lol:I made sure to get that out of the way early on. So if saying my order is open for the 12th time is what finally does it in, then I guess it just wasn't meant to be. :D

[lawdood]

My order's still listed as open, and I haven't received a cancellation email.

Yet.

Did you check the status on their website? I haven't received a cancellation email either but it says cancelled when I go to order tracking on their site.

[shipwreck]

Did you check the status on their website? I haven't received a cancellation email either but it says cancelled when I go to order tracking on their site.

Yeah, mine doesn't say that, I'm not saying what it says, but not that.

[DustBoogie]

Did you check the status on their website? I haven't received a cancellation email either but it says cancelled when I go to order tracking on their site.

No, mine still says open on there tracking, that's where I checked it.

[doc005]

my order is still alive

[Docman]

Funny, the site says the order was canceled, But my card was charged.........

[MrNEWZ]

Ordered and cancelled. Waited forever to post here, however. ;-)

[MrNEWZ]

I did, Dropped and hunting for new deals... Life goes on

Not so much a deal as it is a blatant attempt to take advantage of someone's mistake. So...

Just saying. ;-)

[OldKai]

Mine hasn't been cancelled yet.

[boyward]

They canceled my order.

[botticus]

Hmm... looks like a few of us may have snuck through. Mine's still open!

[doc005]

Mine is still good too.

[DustBoogie]

I'm still open as well.

[kjauburn]

Just checked mine and its open as well...

[Santurio]

Mine shows Open on the Order look-up page but when I click View Detail and check the Status, that's when it tells me it was cancelled.

[soonersfan60]

Well, that stinks. Mine says open on the first screen, but if you click on status it shows cancelled and $0. :cry:

[Friend of Sonic]

I entered in my order number and billing zip code and it still says open. Anything else to check to see if I was cancelled or not?

[soonersfan60]

Mine said open also, until I clicked on the order status screen where it said $0 and cancelled.

[botticus]

Mine's still open in both summary and detail view.

:lol: Apparently they removed the product listing instead of changing the price. Hopefully they don't do something goofy like change the SKU and hose my sweet deal. My order detail just says SEGA and the SKU, instead of listing the title.

[Gator]

My order is still open. Cautiously optimistic.

[rscaramelo]

Just checked and it's cancelled. Crap.

RC

[botticus]

So even though my order survived cancellation for a week, it has now vanished from the order history. Since I haven't been charged, I'll probably just wait until it was supposed to release to follow up with them.

[Friend of Sonic]

So even though my order survived cancellation for a week, it has now vanished from the order history. Since I haven't been charged, I'll probably just wait until it was supposed to release to follow up with them.
Yeah, mine too. I thought I had a bad order number or something.

[soonersfan60]

Mine went from cancelled to "disappeared." I e-mailed their CS telling them it was a gift I was buying for my son. They stated it was a price mistake and offered me a chance to buy it for full list price. :cry:

[drawingboard]

Mine still shows up under "My Account", but when I track it, it disappears. My card was charged for it immediately though, but now that charge has disappeared too.
Very shady business.....

[chakan]

Shady because they reversed the charges?

Shady is charging you and NOT reversing the charges when they realized they made a price mistake.
