I have some more $500 for $175
Hmm, I'm crunching the numbers. Not sure if it's even worth it after their inflated prices and their shipping cost... :(

Doesn't look like it's worth the hassle at this point.

I have 2, PM me if you want it.

Why not refund it?

Unfortunately it seems that you are correct.

One of the very few times I took advantage of a deal posted on the main site.
I already redeemed my voucher, but these guys are real a$$boxers.
My $200 voucher only worked for transactions of more than $250.
I would never ever consider buying by this store again.
A store who can't stand by its own advertised deal has zero trust or credibility in my humble eyes.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

I wonder what was the cause of them pulling the deal? Was living social getting too many complaints about them? Or,Were they getting too many complaints about the voucher and bad publicity and they pulled the plug?

More than once, got me to their voice answering service to request a call back.
And guess what: they never called back.

Living Social says it has nothing to do with them.

So file a claim with the AG/BBB

I don't have the time and patience for that, order's already placed, bought a more expensive model + a few minor add-ons I need anyways.

just feel pissed off, never gonna buy anything with them.

Not to mention the abnormal shipping charges.

They definitely earn the A$$ reward of the month.

the shipping is their prerogative. It's the exclusions that aren't listed that is the issue. You could have checked shipping before buying the cert
