amazon promotional balances

Express · 01-26-2011, 12:19 PM

so i was one of the few who caught amazon selling PS3's for a low price. i bought 3 of them for 174.17 shipped, and they caught the error and gave me a 50 dollar promotional balance to buy anything sold by amazon.com

ideas on what to buy?

06E90Rostik · 01-26-2011, 01:15 PM

I already blew through my livingsocial deal ($20 Amazon credit for $10) was able to get 2 of those

Wait what? it was dirt cheap at 171 as an error and they still gave you a $50 credit?

I'm confused

Limit 1 per customer, he tried 3. So they gave him 50$ because they still want his money, but he cant buy 3 units lol

it was an error. each ps3 was like 55 bucks. i bought 3 of then and they cancelled my order because it was a pricing error. in exchange, they gave me, and i had no choice but to accept, a 50 dollar promotional balance towards anything that is sold from amazon.com

keep in mind, some of the buyers are in other countries where they are actually getting a good deal since the conversion kicks in

Do you browse for PS3's on a daily basis or was it pure coincidence and you're in the market for one? (when you found Amazon's error)
