$1.50?

Is this reliable 100% of the time?
Mine is IDTECH and every now and then I have to swipe twice but it is getting old. Never had it enter the wrong number and I have had a lot of swipes.

Stop! Just stop! I have to go light the menorah soon with my family. You are blowing my mind.
This stuff will be here when you get back. Your full attention should be with your family. Enjoy!

Guys, I work for MLC Distribution, we are a small business based in California. I am really sorry about this mess but basically we had listed an LCD screen and somehow the listing got changed to one for a laptop. We don't sell laptops and never have.

I love a great deal as much as the next guy (always scout the online deal forums), but unfortunately this headache was not caused as a result of our wrongdoing.

I am really sorry for your wasted efforts, I would really appreciate it if you did not leave a negative feedback as some people already have, but I can understand the anger.

Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving.

I would never. I thought you can't leave feedback on a cancelled order...

IME if you know your way around amazon as a seller,(and pricing is an obvius error)you can get amazon to cancel these orders and make it as if they never have been placed. you won't be able to leave feedback even if you wanted too.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

People left negative feedback? Wow.

So, MLC guy, can we ask, is it true that someone was feeling suicidal last night? Some of the sensitive souls on this forum were trying to convince us that by grabbing the deal, we were going to destroy someone's life.

Thank you all, really appreciate the help and support. We spent a considerable amount of time refunding every individual transaction as soon as we were notified of this issue. Some people must have really large families judging by the quantities they ordered  ;)

Take care and thanks again for the understanding!

Edit for replies:
CountValentine: I checked the usual suspects first (SD/FW) to see if anyone posted the deal since the quantity ordered was huge, but found the link here instead.
Freddie: Yes definitely not a great mood around the office yesterday/today.

How does a listing for a monitor get accidentally get changed to a laptop?

Someone (Another seller most likely) changed the page description from being an LCD screen to a laptop. Please see here, a customer asked before whether this was an LCD screen or laptop and all the earlier replies said it was a replacement screen only.
