Well the link is dead. The playstation is still in the “Your Orders” section, with the same price, but if you click it it goes to the “We’re sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site” page. Not looking so good now lol ---

They do not bill unless they ship so there is no loan or any harm in trying to get a deal out of corporate America. ---

amazon works like ebay. sellers get paid before anything ships out, they can decide to ship out or refund it but the money is already in their account. ---

well learn something new everyday, dont really sell on amazon. amazon policy- “After a sale occurs and you have sent Amazon confirmation that the order has been shipped, Amazon processes the payment from the buyer and credits your net proceeds from the sale to your Marketplace Payments account. Keep in mind that refunds to buyers, selling fees, and other transactions are debited against amounts credited to your account from sales.” ---

So there is a reason why Amazon has not yet sent out cancellations for the orders from their site, and it’s contained within their legal disclaimers and terms of conditions for sellers, as follows: > 1. Your Transactions > > 2. Your Obligation. By entering into this Participation Agreement and posting a listing for fixed price sale, you agree to complete the transaction as described by this Participation Agreement. You acknowledge that by not fulfilling these obligations, your action or inaction may be legally actionable. They may choose to hold target accountable for their pricing error, since the description was completely accurate to that of a playstayion 3 console and since it was not corrected in anything remotely close to a timely manner. They may do this simply to maintain credibility with their customers and to look like the “good guy” in the situation. Could be a pretty interesting battle. Although they could still just cancel the orders. lol. A bunch of good info here anyway.
