Nice! Thanks for the link

[ChevelleNV]

dammit... they fixed it :(

I just bought a set of Hooker LS swap headers on there for about $250 cheaper that Summit and Jegs. I called both places to see if they could beat the price and they were shocked.

I find with ebay even the things that I am a distributor for you can't fight with the people that post on there. I sometimes don't get it..
It's like the manufacture is selling direct on some items.

[Schwartz Performance]

Agreed!!! A lot of companies on there do not care about MAP (minimum advertised price) policies either.

I got a couple cases of the Trans fluid, hope they still will send it!!

Hopefully you guys get it but they don't have to sell it. I came across some dewalt cutoff wheels once. They were $2.79 each but they had them listed as a pack of 25. I ordered one and they sent it. Then I told a bunch of people and we ordered a bunch more. All of a sudden they fixed the price and cancelled our orders. The downside is that it is Friday night and they have already caught the error but who knows, they may honor it. Good luck!

They had Rage Xtreme body filler priced the same as the basic stuff, $20 cheaper than TCP (where it comes from!)

They can't legally cancel your order for listing the wrong price. They MUST give you the product for the price they post UNLESS the advertisement states they're not responsible for pricing/printing errors. United Airlines just had to honor hundreds of mispriced flight tickets, some were even marked as $0. They lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. I bought an amp for my electronic drums that was tagged $300.00 on the shelf. I took it up to the sales clerk & he rang it up & told me it was $899.99. I showed him the price tag & he told me since it was tagged at that price he could only charge me $300. He DID immediately remove the tag from the shelf, though...

There is no law that says a company must honor a pricing error. In fact many states already have case law in which the courts have applied the "reasonable person" rule. In short it states that a reasonable person should know or have known there was an error in price. There is a perfect example of this from Walmart just last week. During a computer glitch, they sold thousands of items like $700.00 computers for $9.00 and treadmills for $8.00. Walmart has already notified the customers that the prices would not be honored and they would be refunded in full. Depending on the amount of the loss many companies will honor on-line pricing errors although they are not required to. Almost all retailers will honor in store pricing errors. Here is a link to the Walmart fiasco.

Yeah but they find ways around it. Summit had Kooks Trailblazer SS headers for like 499 obviously a mistake. They sent me a note saying they were out of stock and would not be filling the order. People who got in on it in the very beginning got there headers but after they realized the mistake they stopped filling orders and just said they were out of stock. They are a Kooks distributor any other time they are out of stock it goes to backorder and they get it for you quickly.

That said I've gotten some crazy deals on Amazon. You just leave it in your cart forever and the prices adjust constantly. For instance my centerforce clutch started at 450 and you could tell they were trying to get rid of them. Lowering the price a few months later it was down to like 153 on prime (free two day shipping) ordered it up then not wanting to take a chance on it going higher.

Did that with my Pioneer Nav and ended up waiting too long and the price went up 40 bucks but still way under normal sale prices. Right now I have like 15 items on my cart watching prices. Fast EFI basic got down to 1300 once I should have bought it but went right back up.

I didn't know the cart worked like that. I am new to amazon and only bought a few things.. We will see if this oil order goes through.

[mitch_04]

The wishlist feature will tell you that as well. I have a MASSIVE wish list!

[Auto Rod Technologies]

Maybe I should play around on there more.. I always thought of books when i think amazon... lol.

[mitch_04]

Amazon has EVERYTHING, it's crazy. I have Amazone Prime, like $75 bucks. Free 2 day shipping and, often, $3.99 one-day shipping. Sometimes we can purchase things cheaper and receive them faster than even our main distributors can do!

[Auto Rod Technologies]

Just what I need.. another place to spend money.. lol
