Amazon 3rd Party Price Mistakes (scam) Master Thread

[myi]

It depends how you look at it. If you buy scratch off lottery tickets, then you can also do this. You know you're gonna lose your money, but your buying the chance to dream!

-1 ,by a lottery there is a 50% chance a win or a loss! Because where there are winners involved you can't say what you want to say!

Do you buy scratchoffs?

In my experience, I've made more off cancelled Amazon orders and orders that have never shown up than I've lost. I have yet to win the lottery, so I'm still solidly in the red on that one.

And I think that's true for most of DDF,hence these threads aren't deleted.

Same here.

How do you make money of cancelled deals? Is there a tutorial out there or something? I have done a quick search and didn't find anything related to this other than people saying that if you complain to amazon too much they will block you.

A Dale Carnegie book is as good a tutorial as any.

This store just launched and has tons of mistakes.

For example

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001FWY1JS/?tag=cl03f-20
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000A6HM9G/?tag=cl03f-20

These will never be honored, but you can hope for credit.

All of the above have normal prices. Am I missing something?

They were each a little over $1.

Wow. Some are shipped or even sold by Amazon, curious if they're going to honor it.

A third party seller was offering for $1.

No, the ones I ordered were all sold and shipped by the just launched seller. That seller no longer has any listings, so when I click on the individual items I ordered and hit "share", these are the links that cone up.

I was just showing which items I "ordered", but ignore the listed prices and sellers.

[Cheesecake]

A third party seller was offering for $1.

Right. I emailed Amazon about the second gilgul (dgB*n*nu) asking if it's a scam.

They said it's not, because Amazon sellers are legitimate.

So I created an order number with the third gilgul (Profilm/cry) and emailed Amazon that I did so, and a rep responded that she will personally follow the order.

It's supposed to be expedited shipping and arrive between Aug. 11-16.

[TimT]

because Amazon sellers are legitimate..

Comments: I put this in my cart for $1.45. Price seems too good to be true. Is it a scam?

Thank you.Amazon.com


Is that correct?

I just placed an order - xxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxxx - all items sold by a seller by the name of Profilm/cry.

It seems to be the same seller using a different name.

If the items don't ship, will you stand behind your claim that everything on Amazon is 100% genuine and real, and send the items?

Let's see what happens.


Message From Customer Service


Hello C,


I've checked with the concerned team regarding the order details and it appears that the prices for the products are listed incorrectly and it is no longer available for the price you've ordered them for.


The Order ID: xxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxx listed with an incorrect price on our website for a short time; this error has since been corrected. Our sellers work very hard to accurately list their products, but on rare occasion a pricing error may occur. I'm sorry for any disappointment this causes.


However, I've checked the order and see that it is placed with Expedited Delivery and has already entered the shipping process which should ship out soon.


To help you with this, I'll personally follow up with the order and make sure to update you regarding the order status.


If you still need help, please contact us with the link below:

Please wait for an email from me with the order details.


We hope to see you again soon.
