The item that you requested is on Back Order and we have no exact ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival). Although we have made every attempt to get the merchandise, we have not been able to do so.
Therefore, we have to cancel your order.
We hope that you can understand the limitations of the market of supply and demand and that you will visit us in the future for any of your computer or electronic needs.

THIS IS what they told me

Just thought I'd post the screen that Vista and IE7 displayed when I clicked the link. I would not give them any amount of money for anything.

God damn.........that is one misleading title you have there. I ran into this thread ballz first to buy as many 7900GTX's as i could at that price.

Anyway, sorry you did not get the card.

I've gone through the same as you, I thought I had hit the jackpot. They don't stock 1/2 of what they have on the website. They also have screws at 36$ EACH, and many other mispriced items.

That's one place I'll never deal with again.

I saw that website yesterday, I knew they had it wrong as some of the cases cost more than that. I did get a little excite at first as I'm too tempted to upgrade my company laptop from the GS to GTX, but won't be at that price though.

Well its pretty obvious they realized the pricing error and cancelled the order. I can almost guarantee you if you wait a few days their stock will all of a sudden be back and there will be an ETA on the shipment. Go here and give them a negative rating: www.resellerratings.com

Better yet report them to the better business burea... but let them know you will do it due to misleading advertising. Hehe.. that should make them happy.

Amazon as well as many other reputable online and B&M business run price mistakes. They cancel the orders too. They are under no obligation to fulfill the order unless they have already charged you for it. Read the fine print.

Hmm, need to send a couple of my buddies down there in Hollywood over to Coolidge Rd and pay these people a visit. May just have to arrange an in-person purchase and confirmation of working parts.

True but the point of this thread is that the company does not admit that it is a price mistake. They are merely saying it is out of stock, yet they refuse to honor his order for when they get new stock. Pretty shoddy business practices if you ask me.

shit

Shit what? Say you list something worth 399.99 on ebay and screw up, and list it as 39.99$

Then say I buy it. Please tell me what you'll do.
a) Sell it to me for 39.99
b) Cancel the deal?

I knew you'd pick b). You knew from the start that was a pricing error. You took a chance, just as I did.

The only thing the company did wrong here is tell you it wasn't available instead of saying there was a pricing error. Not good business practice I agree, but let's be real. Do you really expect a 600$ card can be had for 89$?
