CC doesn't get charged until item ships.
However, you will see a "pending" transaction on your cc when you order.

The order status shows the amount as “charged” and not 0.00

Doesn't matter what the order status says. I'm referring to the charge on the cc. It's a Pre-authorized (Pending) transaction until the item ships. Says so right on the website:

That's called fraud or theft depending on your point of view, be sure to file a police report 9nce your done and turn yourself in. Comments like This make everyone at RFD look bad, perhaps you should visit another forum.

Semantics are important, especially when accusing an individual or a group, in order to make your own argument strong, concise and valid.dvdvideo wrote: ↑ If you are deceiving the person at the till into thinking you paid less than you did, or give back less value than you received, in order to rip them off, then it easily meets the definition of criminal deception.
As to theft, certainly nobody ever said criminals were smart, in fact most are not.
It fits fraud better than outright theft definitions, but it's really just semantics anyhow, you know it's wrong and just make excuses to justify it.

It wont. This is not the first time BB is releasing this model with the same offer. In the last 12 months, I have witnessed 3-4 different instances when this "pricing error" occured. On each instance the price went back after noon. To me its not a pricing error on their part but more of a marketing strategy to have more people hitting their website, finding the product is not available for that price and end up grabbing some other model which runs on discount. This has been an ongoing pattern.

No, there is a clear right and wrong in this case. Whether or not you want to justify to yourselves that what you are doing isn't wrong, however, is up to you.beneran89 wrote: ↑ Semantics are important, especially when accusing an individual or a group, in order to make your own argument strong, concise and valid.
If Best Buy fails to mention that the items are bundled or linked in anyway together, there's nothing bureaucratically wrong in returning one item and keeping the other. If they issue a notice about the error then it's a completely different kettle of fish, and it's silly to try and argue at that point to keep the speakers for $0.
This is a topic that has no right or wrong, as it's up to one's own judgement and what they feel is "right" for themselves when it comes to deals like this one.
EDIT: Missed the ' for one's

Got the same message. They said they shipped the receiver already.ARK wrote: ↑ Thanks for placing an order for POLK AUDIO RM6750 HT SPEAKER SYSTEM. We're sorry to tell you that there was a pricing error in our system, and as a result we were forced to cancel your order. We'll make sure your method of payment is not charged.
To apologize we'd like to offer you a $25.00 eCertificate, which you can use on almost any future purchase at BestBuy.ca. In order to use your eCertificate you must have an account on BestBuy.ca and a valid credit card*.
