I am wondering if that is even legal because I have paid and ordered correctly. There was no mistake on my part and they did not give me any notice or explanation. | ||

Do you have some kind of e-mail confirmation of the order? | ||

Many companies do that though, like there once was an error for preordering SC2 only costing $5 dollars or something on best buy off the website, but they soon corrected it and refunded everybody the money because they saw that SC2 was going out for a measly 5 bucks. | ||

I think they are allowed to refund you the money as long as they didn't process your transaction and deliver you any goods, kinda like just refusing your purchase, which any retailer can do on grounds of unintentional pricing errors. | ||

There was some sort of website error or glitch that allowed him to put in an order for $45. In this case, the company has every right to deny the order. Similarly to if some rogue employee stickers something in the store for $1 when it costs $100, the company can just refuse to sell it for that price. | ||

I know it is an unintentional pricing mistake. But I feel it is my right for the order to be processed because I paid accordingly. @Hot_Bid - They updated the price to what it is supposed to be. | ||

I am just stating that I am sad that I can not get my order. So I am ending this blog by saying I will leave it as it is. | ||

If this is the case then I would say maybe you have a cause of action, but it's not worth the hassle. The fact that you knew that this item was worth substantially less than what you paid for would probably play against you. But even assuming that all the facts play in your favor, think of the legal fees you would have to pay to recover damages. I doubt its a worthy investment to pay the money in legal fees to recover a total of $2000 worth in damages. | ||

He's feeling ripped off because some company didn't let him assrape them to the tune of $1,955.00. | ||

Thanks for the comments guys. Don't beat yourself up over it too badly. It made for a pretty good blog. | ||

Someone else just pointed out that knowingly trying to get $2k worth of stuff for $45 due to what you KNOW is a glitch is akin to stealing, and I absolutely agree with them. And then the fact that you actually try to justify it and are seeking out legal resolution is just insane to me. Honestly it's a pretty scummy position to take. So I am ending this blog by saying I will leave it as it is. Haha. Ok. | ||

I have no idea if this would or would not apply to them, its likely in their terms of service that they can cancel orders, in which case they can cancel orders | ||

Decency is lost in this world. Hell, I even ask for permission from artists\labels before using their music in videos or any such thing. They are usually incredibly appreciative that I even ask. | ||

I'm not sure what people are getting so angry about. If he really just 'felt sad' about it, why would he create a thread questioning the legality of the action?  Anyways, going to lock this thread as I think the OP wants it to die. If you want it re-opened scyp send me a pm. | ||
