$187 amazon laptop went back in stock for $700 for a bit and now says currently unavailable again.
It'll probably get canceled eventually.

What if this is all a new type of marketing where they mix a bunch of slightly discounted things with too good to be true ones that constantly trickle in and let the public loose, eventually cancel all the unbelievable ones, send small coupons to all the canceled order people that they can only use on their stores and laugh at all the money raked in from the people who ordered normal discounted things?

Seems like nobody has had that laptop canceled yet. Holding out false hope!
 
what the hell's going on with their pricing and stock? are they doing this to get attention to their store? if they are, it's an awful idea.
 
Farewell sweet laptop
We're writing to inform you that your order from Acer Recertified Store has been canceled because the price for the item(s) was not set correctly by the seller. In most cases, you pay for items when they are shipped to you, so you won't be charged for items that are canceled.*

Please place your order again on Amazon at a later date. If you have any questions regarding the cancellation of this order, please contact the seller.

Sellers on Amazon strive to minimize canceled orders. We're sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. We've included your canceled order details below for reference.
No ones gonna get anything.
Glad I didn't spend much time searching.

Man they got me good with this one. I was blinded by the hype.

Still got a chance for cancellation though
 
they will cancel everything

they had a 10tb NAS for 250€ few days back. cancellation came in a day later so unless you get shipping confirmation dont get your hopes up

Ebay? Amazon canceled everything.

I once got in on a misstake on some sd cards from ebay and they shipped but I doubt this one will.
 
My monitor still hasn't been canceled, but I bet it will be. Same monitor is going for 300 on the official Acer refurbished store. :/
 
Huh. Got an instant refund for most of my stuff, but for my monitor and chrome desktops, the eBay status is set to "cancellation in progress, please confirm your refund." Haven't been given any money back.
 
are there super salty people over at the cheap wallet forums? those guys really rage when they don't get their deals.
 
Fuck. Just got the cancellation email from Ebay. :(

...asked if there was more they could do than 5% though, because 5% is nothingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg and now I want that monitor real bad, hahah.
