Re: Ummm Free?
As far as anyone who frowns upon people buying these incorrect orders, I point out to you: Caveat venditor (in name, not in practiced law). In other words, seller assumes responsibility for the orders and anything posted on their website. They are just as responsible for what's on their site as are people who post objectionable or questionable material.
There is nothing wrong with people taking up a deal, even knowing that it will probably not be honored. There IS something wrong with people judging others over it, even if they were to keep that fortune to themselves. And judging someone, were anyone to give any such hypothetical sales to the troops, is as pointless as it is spiteful. A purely altruistic gesture to give one's fortune onto others, without taking for themselves, is as generous as it gets. Speaking of not acting in the fashion of a BOTL, one who judges others actions so publicly and harshly is not at all acting in any good spirit.
At any rate, I for one received my emails this morning notifying me that a computer glitch caused incorrect prices, and a new confirmation with correct prices was attached, notifying me that if I didn't respond with acceptance within 48 hours, it would be automatically canceled.
We are all entitled to our opinions however they swing, and I feel that if the company honors the mistake, good for them. If they don't, oh well, it's not a loss to anyone else. The website is fixed, emails have been sent regarding the situation and the option to actually buy the deals at the correct price or decline. No one will apparently get anything free.
Having said my piece on this, I suggest the thread be locked to prevent more drama.
