andrgl Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Amazon (itself, not a 3rd party,) is selling some lighting gear for about 1/7th the MSRP. Obviously they fucked up on pricing but I placed an order. Hasn't shipped yet, so, anyone have experience with Amazon honouring or cancelling orders on incorrect prices?

Cinegain Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 To my knowledge and experience no store does that. However... it might be that they don't recognize the f*ck up in time. And once you have it, I don't believe you're obliged to adhere to any of their requests as I believe that once you've got your hands on the product the buying agreement has come full circle (could be however that this is cancelled out by something being 'too good to be true' and having a reasonable doubt of being legit) and from then on there's perhaps only consumer rights of being able to send it back from your side. If they do recognize the f*ck up in time, it can be that they'll just cancel the order, yet still offer you some perk for getting your hopes up and then shooting it down... in the form of a voucher or something for your next purchase. That's however a courtesy thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff CB Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Unless they catch it and depending on price, you may get it at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonny Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Sometimes. A couple of months ago I picked up a GX85 with kit lens for $300 usd from Amazon and they honoured it. Was supposed to be $500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EthanAlexander Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 A while back they messed up the price of a new sony lens by $500 and they honored it. https://petapixel.com/2017/08/03/amazon-honoring-500-pricing-error-2200-sony-lens/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
