ilikesheep Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I ordered one. However I doubt I will get one seeing as how this deal has been posted up on sites like fatwallet and cheap ass gamer for almost 3 hours now. And BB does not charge until the unit has shipped.

RossMAN Posted November 5, 2006 Author Share Posted November 5, 2006 Price mistake? After you click pre-order you'll probably see an error message http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y241/Honeybee_au/Ross/PS3249.jpg http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8008559&productCategoryId=pcmcat104100050000&type=product&id=1156202764702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilikesheep Posted November 5, 2006 Share Posted November 5, 2006 I think that the price mistake has to do with upcoming Wii preorders, since somebody on a different forum stated that the sku in the url is that of the Wii's. Just a guess though, seeing as how Wii is going to be priced at 250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deelite Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 That $249.99 price might have been just to hold your pre-order and when they actually ship your PS3, they will charge the rest to your account.Or they may just cancel it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spunk54 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Hey, I was just curious... does anyone know what is included with this system ? Do they include any games or movies ? Because they don't seem to say anything on the BB website. Regards, Spunk54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyDouglas Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 That $249.99 price might have been just to hold your pre-order and when they actually ship your PS3, they will charge the rest to your account.Or they may just cancel it.- BB puts the price for the entire system for pre-order items. So the $249.99 isn't the price they charge for a pre-order, nor the price of the entire system. BB authorizes the card for the full amount (puts the funds on hold), and then charges your card when the item ships. Do they include any games or movies ? Because they don't seem to say anything on the BB website.- Just the basic system, whatever normally comes with it. Amazon has a good description of what comes with the premium model > http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0009VXAM0/ref=pd_rvi_gw_1/102-6329540-4132116 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyDouglas Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 BestBuy is claiming they made an error and that the PS3 was not supposed to be available via pre-order via their website. This means that the orders may or may not be cancelled. If BestBuy can get the amount needed to fulfill the orders, they will honor it, else they won't be able to.

ebony0421 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I think they should honor their mistake. I do, even though I'm over here . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpr Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 I think they should honor their mistake. I do, even though I'm over here .Been there. I don't think it will happen. BB is not good for owning up to their mistakes. I've had 2 laptops cancelled in the last year because they made a mistake on their site. You might get burnt.

Mara Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 They changed the price to $249 just to attract people lol. Bastards!No I think that was suppose to be a Wii pre order and it got screwed up somehow. $249 being the price of the Wii Mara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elena_398 Posted November 6, 2006 Share Posted November 6, 2006 it was on the news this morning about BB's mistake. They didn't report that they will cancel orders, but said thousands signed up for the pre-order. I bet they go back on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
