Gaijin Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I know there are a lot of Eva threads. But I think $5.99 for the entire series warrants some mention for people out there who wanted to get it. Evangelion Platinum Collection Quote
UN Spacy Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Holy crap. I already have the original boxset....this is too good to pass up. Quote
Dat Pinche Haro! Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) well...i just bought the set....i put in for 2 day shipping and it was still something like $13...this is just wow...just wow... Edited January 21, 2006 by Dat Pinche Haro! Quote
Gaijin Posted January 21, 2006 Author Posted January 21, 2006 Just noticed that my order went from shipping in 2-3 days to 3-5 weeks. Not that I really care as long as I get them. The price is too good. Quote
yellowlightman Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I just ordered it. Never had much of an intention to see Eva, but for $6... can't pass that up. Quote
F360° Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Just noticed that my order went from shipping in 2-3 days to 3-5 weeks. Not that I really care as long as I get them. The price is too good. 362699[/snapback] Yeah,, I just notice the shipping wait too, so choosing the normal free shipping will be the better deal. for those that pick the 2-3 days shipping you can still change your order. I ordered the same set from Amazon just about a month ago, and it took them over 10 days just to start the shipping process. But the set was well worth the $40 I paid for. the video quality on the first couple of eps was amazingly sharper and clearer then their Perfect Collection set ( which I also have). There's also uncut eps and all in 6 thin dvd casing. This is a super price. But I'm not sure if Amazon will honor it. But for a price like this, there's nothing to lose. As long as you don't order like large numbers of 20 or more. If they choose to honor some then you know it'll be the ones that order 1 or 2. So as a tip don't order too much and don't call or email to ask about this set. Best of luck to everyone Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Hell, I even ordered it, and I'm not a fan of the series. Quote
magicsp00n Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I love you, Amazon. Between this and the Gundam blowouts they had recently, we're getting some great stuff on the crazy cheap. Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 I don't think this is a blow out sale, its showing the list price as $9.98. Someone screwed up, or there is a glitch in the system. Quote
Lindem Herz Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Great belated Christmas present for my bro. Thanks for the headsup. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 i figured it was a error because of the list price of $9.99, i wonder how many more errors there are like this on their site? we should take another look at their dvds and stuff, there may be some more hidden goodies on there site that we have yet to notice. chris Quote
JB0 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 They did that with Nintendogs preorders a while back. There's screwups all over the place, I'm betting. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 we should take a good look through there list and see if we find anything and post it here. chris Quote
Mr March Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) I don't want to ruin your excitment, but this happened around boxing day as well. Several items were priced for dirt cheap only to be price adjusted a day or two later. Amazon did not allow the cheap sales that had been made to stand, but they did allow cancellation without any problem. It's a good deal and I hope all goes well, but my guess is Amazon will not honor the sales. Edited January 21, 2006 by Mr March Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 do not know if this is a deal Metal Gear Solid 3 for about $10.00? i do not have a PS2 so i do not know the prices of their games MGS 3 Quote

eugimon Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 the rhaxephon (sp?) box set is similarly priced. I hope they honor these prices... though, this is low enough that I would call to complain if they tried to change it. Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Well that is a good deal pity I don't like the series. Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Amazon hit by pricing error Customers who thought they'd secured a TV for a bargain price have been left disappointed, after Amazon pulled the mispriced offer From this past October. Funny thing is, if Amazon were a real, physical store, they'd have to honor it. Edited January 21, 2006 by Duke Togo Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Just checked the site, its been pulled from sale. Quote
Fortress_Maximus Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) BASTARDS! So does this happen often? Edited January 21, 2006 by Fortress_Maximus Quote
UN Spacy Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 Does this mean they'll honor the original price before was pulled? Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 No. See the post at the top of the page. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) it looks like the Eva set is no longer for sale . so i think we are out of luck, by the way where is this rhaxephon set? i found none that were priced way off. does anyone have a link chris Edited January 21, 2006 by zeo-mare Quote
Zentrandude Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 hmm 56 now. you guys cancelled your orders seeing they will not charge you the price set on the screen when you first saw it? Quote
Sdf-1 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 My friend just told me he has got stuff from amazon a few times for too cheap price, so it still may happen sometimes, but I wouldn't be too optimistic. Quote
UN Spacy Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 This doesn't mean we should start canceling our orders. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 hmm 56 now. you guys cancelled your orders seeing they will not charge you the price set on the screen when you first saw it? 362757[/snapback] $56.00...it looks like those are from independent sellers on the side that have it new and used. it does not seem like Amazon is accepting any more orders. i did not cancel my order but i do not know if amazon will. chris Quote
Sdf-1 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 This doesn't mean we should start canceling our orders. No, let them cancel it if they will. But I'm afraid they noticed this too soon. Quote
JB0 Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 do not know if this is a deal Metal Gear Solid 3 for about $10.00? i do not have a PS2 so i do not know the prices of their gamesMGS 3 362720[/snapback] They have an accurate list price(if somewhat dated, it goes for about 30 now, I think)). I'd say that one's a legitimate sale. Probably to clear the shelves for the updated MGS3: Subsistence. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 21, 2006 Posted January 21, 2006 yea i figured it was not a error but i though it seemed like a really good price for it so i posted it for anyone who might be intersted in it. chris Quote
Duke Togo Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 Its official, all orders are being cancelled. Quote
zeo-mare Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 just got there email all i can say is YOU SUCK AMAZON.COM all well..... easy come easy go i guess..... Quote
