[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Amazon has Sidewinder Compact lights for 11 Bucks!!! Amazon is saying no go now..uggh

Posted: 10/26/2010 9:28:06 AM EDT

I just ordered one. Retail is $80 and I haven't seen them anywhere online for less than $50. Shipping is $7. Gittem before they figure out their mistake.

"Thank you so much for placing your order with us for the Streamlight Sidewinder Compact Tactical Flashlight. We sincerely apologize, but unfortunately there was an error in Amazon\'s feed. The listing was supposed to be the Streamlight Stinger Flashlight Lens Reflector Assembly, the orders came through our system as the Streamlight Sidewinder Compact Tactical Flashlight. Unfortunately, we are going to have to cancel the order. We will immediately refund any funds back to your Amazon account. It was an unfortunate error and we do apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused. Thank you so much for your time and understanding in this matter."

I guess the frenzy from everyone on here got them wise. Can they just pull the order like that??? What is my recourse to hold them to it???

I guess the old adage is right. If it is too good to be true, then it is!!!!

Ordered one here. They say that they're sold by and shipped from Optics Planet. Amazon is charging more for the ones they stock.

Nah, they won't do that, they'll just refuse the order. Interested to see what happens....

LOL..That was my next thought, I will verify it in a few days, I have a receipt that says $21.94 for two of them, anything different and I have my card revoke the charges.

My reciept says 21.94 for two plus 13.98 shipping.

Still not as good as the 400 G3 mags I bought for .10 apiece.

I don't even see the one for $35.50 now. That would still be a bargain.
