OrangeSoul Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 :huh: The lady on the phone said they are investgating the prices. She said this may apply:All offers, promotions and prices are subject to change without notice. uBid is not responsible for any typographical or photographic errors which may appear on our website. So I hope those who ordered do get the drives at the prices you were charged. :yes: its a consumer law rule that once you BUY the product you get the product at the price u bought it for, they cant under law hold the product back or ask you for more money Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/133346-steal-on-hard-drives/page/5/#findComment-1620255 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shifty Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 There is a law where i live in virginia that if a retailer (online too) advertises a price they have to honor it or get sued. I bought a geforce4 4600ti for $129 not too long ago. some one transposed the 1 and the 2. I ordered it and after refreshing the page an hour later it was at the right price of $219. They tried to charge me the $219 or cancel the order. I told them that i lived in VA and they quickly changed my order for the advertised $129!! what a steal!! [edit] is it me or is ubids online basket on crack... i specifically wanted 1 drive, but they put 4 in it!! i had to change it back 1 and update. also i tried it in the newest mozilla and it did the same thing.... weird...
