I've been reading the comments on Amazon. The confusion between Amazon and Target is pretty funny. Target says that it's a typo and all of the orders will be cancelled. Amazon says that the order will be honored. XD

If they honor it... order more, then sell them and make bank.

Well, here's an interesting reason why.

I was advised that the item was mislabeled. The item is really for a PS3 Advanced Shooter Grip... ITS NOT A CONSOLE!!!

Even if it is a shooter grip or whatever.. They're advertising a PS3. Don't they still have to sell it at that price though?

I remember buying a mispriced game at best buy once and they had to honor it at that price. Or is it different for online sales?

Buy it, get the grip in the mail and then send a formal complaint saying they misrepresented the item you intended to purchase. Just like ebay!

On that note, the page DOES say
Product Dimensions: 12.8 x 10.8 x 3.9 inches ; 11 pounds
Media: Console

So unless the ADVANCED SHOOTER GRIP is made out of some pretty stern stuff and as big as a PS3, I think I'll agree with Tessou. Wondering why they didn't fix the error yet. Unless everyone got the night off early for Martin Luther King Jr. Day tomorrow.

Seriously, you can use that to form a legit complaint, as the product description says that it's a console and not an accessory. Just say you thought you just stumbled onto an amazing holiday deal and are outraged that you got a different product in the mail than what you intended to purchase.

If they do send out those grips, they're in for a pretty big false advertisement lawsuit. facepalm.gif

I don't think it'll come to that though. Worst case scenario? Orders get cancelled. Best case scenario? You get a PS3.

Well, I think Amazon finally caught on. That, or for some reason the link wasn't working for me.
