mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 I was in the online deal section, and saw the link for the Friday sale at amazon for the flannel sheet sets for $10.99, so I clicked on it...anyway, I decided to look and see if there were any camcorder deals. WELL..OMG my hands are shaking. :) Sony HandyCam DCR-DVD403 Digital Camcorder with 10x Optical Zoom, 120x Digital Zoom Technical Details 3.3-megapixel gross CCD imager with a large 1/3-inch advanced HAD (hole accumulation diode) CCD provides stunning detail and clarity with exceptional video. 2.7-inch wide 16:9 hybrid touch panel LCD with recording and zoom buttons on the LCD frame. Enhanced 16:9 10x optical zoom with digital image stabilization. 120x Digital Zoom. 2.7inch LCD Screen Size. Visual index uses a simple chapter menu to display your video footage and provide a quick search of your favorite scenes or still pictures without the hassle of wading through endless tape. Just choose your chapter and watch. Professional-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens precision guarantees a crisp and clear image every time. DVD-R/-RW/+RW-compatible, and with DVD-RW and DVD+RW you can rerecord more than 1,000 times on a single disc. Super NightShot plus uses infrared light to let your camcorder record images in colour in total darkness. There was only one. $11.95 and $18.45 for shipping. Am I missing something?? I re-read and re-read then I just went and ordered it before someone else saw it. Think it's for real or did I screw up somewhere??? I've been wanting to get a camcorder for my son and his girlfriend, but having been waiting to see if any good deals popped up. So even if it isn't what I thought, it's only $30.00 out.
snowcrustracer Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Was it used? I hope you get it! I've got my fingers crossed for you! Good luck!
mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 Was it used? I hope you get it! I've got my fingers crossed for you! Good luck!No! It was listed as NEW. That's why I am really concerned that I read it wrong or something.
BrookeGray Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 I just went to go and grab one, but well looks like everyone else got to them first because they are gone
BrookeGray Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Oh duhhh I just re-read your post saying there was only one.
mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 :) That's OK! When I originally started checkout, I backed up and tried to order 2. (One for myself), even though I knew it said there was only one. But the page came up and said there was only one available. I just hope this goes through! If it does then I can go ahead and get them a DVD recorder. They only have a player, and neither one of their computers have a DVD burner. My walmart still has a bunch of recorders for $79.00.
MandaJo111 Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 WOW!! What an awesome find! I hope they do honor it for you. Which company had it. Since it was not free shipping I am assuming it was not directly through Amazon.
mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 No, it was not directly through Amazon, it is a company called Wall Street Photo. Now that I have calmed down a little, and came back to reality, I really am starting to think this is not going to happen. I can not imagine that they will not catch the error.
MandaJo111 Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 You found it I say fight for it. If they try to deny it argue with them. What can it hurt. I really do hope you get it!
mominthepark Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 consider yourself very lucky and your son as well. Let us know if you get it. I am sure that the rest of us are going to be searching Amazon high and low for other great deals:)

I am sure that the rest of us are going to be searching Amazon high and low for other great deals:) :) I won't consider myself lucky until I have it in hand!! I think if it would have been directly through Amazon, it may have slid by because there was only one. But since this is a smaller seller, I am sure that it will be caught and the order cancelled. But I am still holding out hope.The retail from what I have seen is around $1000. I keep checking my email for a cancellation, but I guess it is a little too soon for that. I will be sure to let everyone know what happens.
ShopperMom Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Wow, awesome find (why can't that ever happen to me lol) Hope it works out and you get it, keep us posted!
mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 Wow, awesome find (why can't that ever happen to me lol) Hope it works out and you get it, keep us posted!It NEVER happens to me. Even when there is a really HOT deal posted, by the time I get there it is dead. That's why I KNOW it's gonna get cancelled. It was just a fluke, and only because I went to look at the $10.99 flannel sheets. (Which by the way I didn't order because I got all excited about the camcorder.)
u4eagirl2000 Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 It could!! I actually ordered 3 bluetooth headsets from Amazon one time - they were listed as $0.00 (automatically - no rebates!!!). Anyway, I actually received them! I couldn't believe it when they sent me the email saying they had shipped!! Maybe you will get lucky!! Keep your fingers crossed!
mom_of2boyz Posted December 3, 2006 Author Posted December 3, 2006 I just logged into my account at Amazon and got this message Shipping Soon These orders are being prepared for shipment and cannot be changed. • Order placed on December 3 --
vonnyb Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 That is sooo cool. Let us know when you get it.
laffnatu Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 WOW!!!!!!! That's a great find! I looked on Amazon to see what the camcorder looked like. It was listed new & used from $1195.00. Congrats on the great find! :)
knb080998 Posted December 3, 2006 Posted December 3, 2006 Congrats! I hope that you get it! Let us know!
mandifour Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 I had that happen once before. I ordered a bunch of envelopes from an office supply store for a penny each. I thought it would get canceled but I got 2 cases for about $7 shipped. Hopefully you will be as lucky.

mom_of2boyz Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 :bigcry: Oh well, I knew it was too good to be true. But it still had my blood pumpin' there for a while. :)
AFkat Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 They don't even say why it was cancelled, though we know it had to be the price error. I'm so sorry.
mom_of2boyz Posted December 4, 2006 Author Posted December 4, 2006 They don't even say why it was cancelled, though we know it had to be the price error. I'm so sorry. Yes, because it is now relisted on Amazon, but the price is $1195.00. I guess they forgot a couple of zero's.
