Can anyone confirm if this is for real? I was just checking at their condition's page, and found this:
4.6 Except where noted otherwise, the List Price displayed for products on the Site represents the price suggested by the supplier. The List Price is a comparative price estimate and may or may not represent the prevailing price in every area on any particular day. With respect to items sold on the Site, DX.com cannot confirm the price of an item until you order. Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items in the catalog may be mispriced. If an item's correct price is higher than the stated price, DX.com will, as instructed by the seller, cancel your order, notify you of such cancellation and make necessary compensation to you after friendly consultation with you.
Pretty much standard.. pricing mistakes happen regularly online.
Most of the time they catch it before it ships, some times they dont.. and sometimes they catch it but still honor it.
occasionally they'll also try to negotiate a middle ground price... example they might offer you the unit close to their actual cost to keep the customer happy.. or they might offer a coupon or discount.. 10-20%.
I don't know how DX handles it.. this of course assuming the price is a mistake and not for real.
They may cancel and offer nothing.
If it is a price mistake, The more people who know about it, The more orders they get, The more likely they'll both 1: catch it and 2: not honor it.
If they only had a few orders they might honor a price mistake, if they have a bunch though it becomes cost prohibitive because at this low of a price im sure it's below cost and they're taking a loss... again assuming it's really not a clearance.
The op has done us all a service by letting us in on the deal, Frankly they could have not shared it and increased their chances of getting a unit (lower volume = more likely it will ship).
For the love of god no one post this on a deal site like fat wallet or slick deals or I guarantee you no one will get one if it's a pricing mistake.
Don't order an insane quantity like 50.. just order 1 and be happy if it goes thru.
And no one ask DX if the price is correct.
