Same here.  I wonder if they would have caught it if thousands of cases weren't being bought

Impossible. There is always a chuchem attik.

Could be that they decided now to send an automatic email to all that purchased it.

Call up and ask for a refund because it was cancelled...

I would take one case if someone in lakewood/flatbush is looking to unload one

bump, for anyone who actually got theirs

[SPGDUDE]

i got the cancellation email and it still says processing?!

[whacked1]

i too just received the email, in a way i'm weirdly relieved. i dont have time (and not good at) for the whole reselling bis and i def dont need 5 cases of wipes!!!

[ari101]

what I can't understand about it is, if it was a price mistake and they decided not to honor it why did they send out those few?

I can't help but ask, why the heck did you even order them if you don't have use for them and are not interested in reselling? I mean, the fact that something is super cheap DOES NOT justify purchasing it if you have no use for it!!! It's called throwing money in the garbage. If the price were zero dollars, then purchasing something of no use to you is merely wasting your own time (and storage space). But if it does cost any amount of money, you'd have to be insane to buy it.

when i said i dont have patience in reselling it i meant on amazon etc. i'm sure that if i couldnt find a buyer for a profit loads of ppl would be willing to take it off my hands for the price i paid. hence not throwing away anything!

still a mighty waste of time and headache, though.
If I offered you 5 huge cases of shredded paper for $0.50, would you buy it, knowing that you can probably find some shipping or moving company that will take it off your hands for the price you paid? Or would you wisely say, no thank you, I have no need for shredded paper?

[whacked1]

well what if you have something called ddf where ppl will right away purchase 5 cases of wipes from you for a cheap price. besides i have relatives that would've taken it off my hands from me in a second!! jeez i cant believe i'm actually justifying myself to you!!!

I'll say it again: why would you engage in an activity that serves yourself no purpose and instead wastes your time and energy? Unless you bought them as a chesed for your family and friends (so that they don't have to waste their time buying it.) Otherwise, just because you have an easy way of getting rid of the stuff without taking a loss does not come close to explaining why you bought them to begin with.
To clarify, I am not trying to pick on you per se - I really don't care if you are adamant about justifying it or not. I'm making a broader point about similar situations - when something is very cheap, some people seem to impulsively buy it without thinking about whether the purchase actually serves them a purpose.

How about - it's fun to sometimes get something for such a ridiculously cheap price?

And then afterwards, you can help people out by selling it to them for a cheap price as well, just slightly less ridiculous, and making a few extra bucks for yourself.
