Starcraft 2 $5 @ Bestbuy

This has to be a pricing error. Odds are all orders will be cancelled or notified that the price was an error and given the option to cancel or keep it or something. Still worth a shot though. Perhaps Bestbuy will honor some to prevent customer backlash or award people some sort of compensation.

They will cancel all the orders as soon as they noticed the error. gohan2710

lol@ all the ppl not taking advantage of it incase they don't fix or cancel orders. Hell I ordered it and Starcraft really isn't my thing but a good deal is a good deal. That and I can turn around and sell it for almost full price probably be the next on eBay.

Wait is this for real? What the hell. Bug?Lethalhazard

Where do I click to preorder it anyway?

edit: lolbugs, don't think you can preorder anymore.

Looks like the found out about it, I will let you guys know if the order stays active :)

The orders'll be canceled or the prices will be bumped up, so be careful.

Yeah, read the fine print. Says the order amount is subject to change.....so this could really screw some of you guys who ordered multiple copies if you don't cancel it. Lethalhazard

This is why I put it on my store credit card, I don't have to worry about any large amounts being taken out of my personal account.

I JUST Called a rep on the phone she said it sounds to good to be true.

She is checking it now

she said that it will auto-cancel if it doesn't go through

Um we all know it is a pricing mistake and are just trying to take advantage of BB, now it is taken off the website and in the process up getting fixed. We have 3 options here

1. Order goes through and we get our copies for $5
2. Order gets cancelled and we get a small gift card for thier mistake(this happened before duing black friday deal)
3. Order is cancelled and we wasted 2 minutes of our life

Ordered 50 copies.

This happened to futureshop in Canada when they were selling PS3 for $150 i think. The order just got cancelled, simple as that. Bestbuy owns futureshop here so same rules probably apply. Except in Quebec where laws force retailer to go through with it.

It's a shame I got here too late :P

[QUOTE="Rev3nger"]Wow, too bad I live in Europe and they don't ship internationally. I'm sure they meant to make it a $50 sale, not $5. This is probably going to cost someone their job.jasonharris48

I am 100% sure that by agreeing to buy off their website you give them the right to cancel your order if they made a mistake.

So I would be surprised if anyone gets this from BestBuy for $5

EDIT: Besides, if they didn't take the money from you yet, then no exchange occurred and they don't have to process your order and can renege on it if they want. But if they did take money, what I said above will apply.

This is like last time when they priced a 50 Inch tv at 11$ instead of 1700$. Lol. You all are gonna get your money back. :P

ZippySlappy

Lol wow.

I was going to buy it but I got an error.

[QUOTE="jasonharris48"]So if I decide to order a copy it's on them right? I won't have to pay the $55 dollar difference?

Rev3nger

No, of course not. They're liable for what they post on their site.

Grab the opportunity while you can, this will probably be corrected very soon.

As someone else has said they will cancel all orders when they realize the mistake, they did it when they sold a 1000+ TV for $10 this past holiday, sucks but thats the way it is.

:( Link doesnt work anymore. Thanks Bioshock for calling the rep :roll:

The orders will be cancelled. They made the same error pricing a $2000 Samsung TV for $200. I ordered one of them and the order got cancelled.

Joke thread? It is $59.99 when I go to the URL. Where are you getting it is $5?
