holly fuck
wow i wonder how many people actually able to process it out and receive it in their hands.
Now if someone fucked up on the pricing, can the store sells as it is??? or they can change it back right away at the cashier saying it was the wrong price tag or something.
wouldnt the cashier be like wtf? something is wrong, no way a 52" tv for $10 bux

We tried to order 10 of them this morning, when we finally got a shipping address all figured out, it was too late and the site was updated with the corrected price.

No they don't need to honor it. Just recently on bestbuy.ca they had the new 300 blueray preorder for $9.99 and I ordered it along with thousands of others. Finally they realized they fucked up and cancelled everyones order followed with this email.

they don't have to in most of Canada, but they have to honour it in Quebec
and i suspect the rules/laws of every state differ on this issue in the USA so some people might actually have gotten it for $9.99

Yes, because every typo should cost them hundreds of thousands of dollars.

By MAE ANDERSON, AP Retail Writer Mae Anderson, Ap Retail Writer – 2 hrs 19 mins ago
NEW YORK – Few if any of the deals retailers have offered online during the recession have been as good as Best Buy Inc.'s sale price of $9.99 on a 52-inch TV Wednesday. But it quickly turned out the offer was too good to be true.
The electronics retailer said it will not honor the $9.99 price posted Wednesday morning on its Web site for a 52-inch Samsung flat-screen TV. By early afternoon, the TV was listed at $1,799.99, almost half off the original $3,399.99 price.
Bloggers and Twitterers lit up the Internet with posts about the offer, some insisting Best Buy must honor it, others making jokes.
Best Buy, based in Richfield, Minn., said it has corrected an online pricing error and will not honor the incorrect price. Orders made Wednesday morning at the incorrect price will be canceled and customers will receive refunds, the company said.
Best Buy did not immediately return a call for additional comment
