mietha answered my first question as to whether or not 5 free movies could be gotten with this.

Now for the second question: Is a high def TV required to use one of these players? I understand that the whole point of getting a BD player is for the 720 or 1080 resolution, but I bought one just for the price.

If we did then you click one button on the cards website and they cancel the charges and will issue you a new card. Easy enough.

Now we just wait for one of the slick dealers to call BB and ask if its a mistake. Then watch as they cancel all the orders.

It's a real site. Go to the regular Best Buy site. At the bottom right of the page is a drop down to other Best Buy sites. (Canada, Business, Government, etc). Choose Best Buy for Business and it will take you to http://www.bestbuybusiness.com Then just search the player.

Though it's all moot since the site has been flooded with traffic from SD and FW.

Yeah I'm sure some asshole reseller wiped out the inventory on this and will be selling them on eBay (probably without indicating that it is 1080i and an ancient model).

These were just an old model being clearanced out by Best Buy, no suirprise there. I picked up a sweet Delphi XM satellite radio boombox with car kit combo yesterday at BB that was originally at least $180, clearanced out for $30. They had tons of them, they were just older models. Perfect gift for the father in law and at an unbeatable price.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, based on the price it's going for on amazon marketplace now. If it's really just a 1080i, I don't even give a shit if it's cancelled or not. Why the hell make a non-1080p hd player? That's just stupid.

Edit: According to the amazon page, it is a 1080p player if you use HDMI.

What a retarded thing to say. For 30 bucks shipped, don't you think you could deal with your TV deinterlacing to 1080p?

Jeez, 1080p nazis sometimes.. :)

This is a 1080p player anyway, but 720p/1080i players (like the A3) are perfect bargains for those with 720p sets.

During the signup process there should be a question that says: "Are you interested in using this website to pick up some slick deals? Or perhaps to keep your wallet fat?" And if the user selects 'Yes' it sends them to an identical copy of CAG where no good deals are posted.

Doesnt mean anything. They charge your card the moment you place you order. When says "SHIPPED" thats when you can start cheering and jumping for joy

I know there is a law that says if a retail store miss prices something they have to sell it to the customer for that price and can correct the price afterwards. Does this apply to online retailers?
Majority of these sites are so use to the price mistakes that they have a disclaimer somewhere stating that if there is a price error, the are not obligated to fulfill the order and they can cancel the orders anytime.
