Dude, I love you. The 52″ is gone but I just bought three 42″ aquos tvs for $400-and-change (because of the shipping).
I’m keeping my fingers crossed heehee
Looks like they sold out of the 52″ Sharp LCD, but there’s still alot of other deals on there
Amazon is amazing! as of 2:04 EST (GMT-5.00) the shop is pretty much closed… But I rang up 12 TVs (4×46″, 1×32″, 4×26″, and 3x 19″ TV/DVD combos).. total price after shipping and tax was $1060… got confirmation, lets see if they ship…
either way, someone’s getting fired.
Wow, Stumble upon found me this link. The 52′s were gone, I ordered 3 46′s for $428 shipped.. I can’t help but feel like this is a too good to be true find. If It dosen’t work out at least Amazon/Visa will give me my money back..
i bought two as soon as it was posted.
a 47 and a 52.
i hope i get them.
150 each with shipping and handling.
booyah.
Looks like they’re all gone already. Ha!
I’m pretty sure they can’t do anything once the order is confirmed. Gamefly had an issue where they accidentally posted all coupons like three times…I got three games before they fixed it and still got them for the discounted (free) price.
John Zoidberg…
Do you really need 12 TVs? I will purchace a 46″ or the 32″ from you for $175 (you payed $88 averaging the whole haul) I’ll pay shipping.

Mine orders are still in there
Could be a violation of Business and Professions Code Section 17200, for unfair and deceptive business practices. Need to know more.
My order was just canceled by Amazon:
Greetings from Amazon.com,
We’re sorry, but the following order from myOfficeSource has been
canceled.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
No reason on why it was canceled …
Los Angels Consumer Lawyer if you think there’s a case against Amazon or myOfficeSource the you might want to go and post here: http://gizmodo.com/5046358/52+inch-sharp-aquos-hdtv-for-3845-or-not-really I’m sure a few hundred if not thousands of orders were placed. Keep us updated
and then from myOfficeSource:

So was it Amazon’s fault?
why is it people bother with stuff like this? you obviously knew it was a mistake. Why bother?
I thought that if you found something incorrectly priced in a store they had to sell it you at that price because they stuffed up..
if they gave you a receipt and order form then they should be accountable.
GL paying hundreds in lawyer fees to get it tho
I’m not sure about the US, but in the UK if anything has a low price in a store it’s referred to as an ‘invitation to treat’ and they’re not obliged to sell it at that price.
However, in cases like this it’s a bit more unclear. If payment hasn’t been taken then the store stands in good grounds to cancel the order. If payment HAS been taken and the despatch confirmation has been sent then it’s a little more complicated!
