Insane? PS3 $40 + s/h

I grabbed two of them, but fully expecting to get cancelled. Actually, I grabbed four on two different cards but I wound up cancelling two of them as I didn't want to be in a situation where they held my $120 (I paid for overnight shipping) hostage for two weeks.

Nice. Hopefully you get them. I wasn't as quick as you!
 
Target had this also, but when you checked out it was some stupid controller. I skipped on the Amazon one figuring it'd be cancelled. If anyone gets it that'll be awesome.
 
Ordered one, probably going to get canceled, but last time this happened to my cousins (with Microsoft in particular), they got a $1200+ laptop for free AND a $100 coupon for Microsoft's store.
 
If you order this now are you guaranteed to get one at this price once they are in stock?
 
I never make it in time for these crazy mess ups, but most of the time they are cancelled. Hope you get one computerpro3!
 
best ps3 version ever, the one I bought 4 years ago still works with lite use here and there. And no YLOD so I got my moneys worth with this console.
 
In for 2! I already owned a PS3 but you cant never have too many :D

Huh? The category is consoles, the description is the standard PS3 description. Still I agree with your thought that no one will get it for that price. Its probably a pricing error and seeing as its being sold via Target and not Amazon, Amazon is under no obligation to even bother pretending to care.

No, the confirmation email says it's a controller. However Target's confirmation page says its a PS3.

IT will get cancelled so it doesn't really matter.

i updated my post to say the TARGET link sorry.. the amazon site def shows it as a console.. but targets site says different
 
ordered one just in case.. mine YLOD on me sitting in my closet awaiting a box and 150$ to rma it but i wont need to if this goes thru! hasnt charged my card yet
 
the worst? u loost 50$ and cant cancel and itsa move controller.. but then i sue the company for false ads! lolss
 
I ordered one too. What happens if they send me some crappy Move controller or accessory or something?
 
I already asked once and didn't get an answer, so I'll ask again.

If you order this, are you guaranteed to get one at this price once they are in stock?

EDIT: Font size 6 was too obnoxious, I made it 5 instead so it's still noticeable.

Even if you ordered when they were in stock they can cancel all orders, claiming it was a price mistake, which it obviously is.
 
If you look at product dimensions is says: 12.8 x 10.8 x 3.9 inches ; 11 pounds.

No way in hell that is a controller or anything other than a PS3. We will either get it or they will cancel the order. Simple as that.
 
Here is to a cancelation notice and hopfully some unsatifed* customer credit.
