Red Camera? That'll be $95 - Prime day glitch turns into a field day for camera enthusiasts

"However, if there is a genuine mistake on the part of the trader to display the correct price, the trader can claim that there is a defect in consent and the contract may be set aside, especially if the consumer should reasonably have known that the price displayed was the result of an error."

 

So no, you're not going to get 90% off on something even in Europe due to a price error.  Your logic would be similar to saying if a customer pulls out their wallet and a $20 bill falls out while they're trying to pay for a $1 item then they're obligated to give the business that $20.  No law system anywhere is actively trying to enabled customers or businesses to be doing those sorts of tricks.

Um depending on where the person doing the order is located Amazon may not be able to do so. In many parts of europe if you advertise somthing as X price you have to honour that price even if it was a mistake.

In EU there's always "mistake clause" and this magical thing that usually is scares in the States called "common sense".

If you see a 1500$ camera sale for 95$ that is quite clearly mistakenly priced and in 10 out of 10 cases the deal will be nullified because the price is so ludicrous that everybody can see that it cannot be a real sale price.

Hate to break it to you, but the mistake clause is no more common sense than making a retailer honor the prices they list.

 

No one but the retailer knows why the price is listed the way it is, they just know that the retailer is listing that good at that price.

 

Anyone that took Amazon up on the offer this thread focuses on, is entitled to the product if Amazon already charged them for it.

Not sure how accurate that is yet, but they state there isn't a law requiring a retailer to honor a mistaken price.  

Here's an article (from an actual credible site) that references a 2003 price issue that Amazon didn't honor:

https://www.cnet.com/news/amazon-wont-honor-pricing-mistake/

 

Another time they cancelled orders:

https://www.cnet.com/news/glitch-bungles-amazon-orders/

Just not seeing anything that requires them to honor these price mistakes.

You must be one of those "funny guys" who finds an item from a store without pricetag and goes "it doesn't have a price, it must be free".

 

For real, if the price is unbelievable good it's either mistake or there's a dog (or whole pack) buried somewhere.

Unbelievable is irrelevant. Mistakes are irrelevant. If Amazon makes the offer, someone takes it, and Amazon charges for it, the person that took that offer is entitled to what Amazon offered.

Yes, and you need to READ the contract then.  It has provisions for these things.  Hence why Amazon can choose to honor or not.

 

You're simply guessing at what the contract should say, not acknowledging what it actually says.

 

If you've ever played a MMORPG, you've been under their EULA which does not fit common sense always.  An example of a contract that contradicts what most people THINK should be.

I did my digging and when ti comes to online it gets super complicated. Retail once they take your money the sale is final. Online it depends how their ToS is worded, if they enter into a contract with you at time of sale, (i.e. once they take your money), they have to honour it, but it can be worded such that they only enter into contract once the goods are delivered. Which is where the confusion tends to arise, (understandably, unless it's an online matter all sales are final once the money is charged). The other aspect is false advertising which gets conflated. If a store runs a major ad campaign showing one price but actually charges somthing else they can get into all kinds of bother.

Most online retailers, including Amazon, do not charge the customer until after the item has shipped or been delivered. So its within Amazon's ability to cancel the order up until then.

Amazon Germany had some phones listed about 9 or 10 years ago for about 1/3-1/4 of the actual price (something like that anyway - they were about €100 instead of €3-400) they should have been, I ordered some of them but I think word got around to plenty of people who started ordering them too. They sent a cancellation notice later that day when they had probably started picking them, cancelling the order as it was an error, and as they hadn't already charged my card as they only do that when they are prepping for dispatch, it was tough luck. Made me sad for the 10 I'd ordered... haha.

You are correct except for one very important point that goes back to the Contract and its wording...  Specifically item 3.  Amazon, and other online retailers DO NOT use an unconditional contract of sale.  There are stipulations in there as I mentioned previously.  Once again, you seem to just willy nilly ignore the actual wording of the Contract.  

 

It's like arguing with a child who simply screams I want Ice Cream and you keep saying there isn't any in the house.  

 

https://accountlearning.com/transfer-of-ownership-sale-of-specific-goods-unascertained-goods-on-approval/

 

1. The Ownership is Transferred at the Time of Making the Contract

As per Sec. 20 of the Act, in case of specific goods, the ownership is transferred at the time of making the contract if the following conditions are fulfilled.

1) Specific Goods

The sale must be of specific goods – the goods that are identified and agreed upon at the time of making the contract of sale.

2) Deliverable State

The goods must be in a deliverable state. The goods are in a deliverable state when they are acceptable to the buyer and he can take delivery immediately.

3) Unconditional Contract of Sale

The contract of sale must be unconditional – the contract in which no condition is imposed with regard to the transfer of ownership of the goods.

On the fulfillment of the above said three conditions, the ownership of the goods is transferred from the seller to the buyer.

I'm quite sure it's illegal in the EU to charge money for an item that hasn't shipped. So it depends on legislation.

Your source doesn't support your position. Upon payment, retailers and customers have made a legal agreement for the exchange of a good for compensation. Amazon has legal obligation to fulfill their part of the contract if yhe customer fulfilled their end.

Holy shit, how you can continually ignore the part about the contract HAS STIPULATIONS in it to modify this?!

 

https://www.michalsons.com/blog/when-a-retailer-displays-the-wrong-price/3723

 

Suppliers should reject offers and not cancel transactions

The definition of transaction in the ECT Act is unhelpful but the CPA defines transaction as an agreement between persons to supply goods or services in return for money. The CPA goes further to define an agreement as an arrangement that purports to establish a legal relationship between the parties. It does not specify what that legal relationship is. So, it could be the finalised sale which would mean that the consumer is only permitted to cancel after the sale is finalised. The term ‘agreement’ could also include the phase where the consumer has offered to buy the products but the sale has not yet been finalised. If this is so, then the supplier could reject the offer if they are unable to perform that agreement on the grounds that the goods are not available (section 46). This section could be understood to mean that goods classed as unavailable includes goods that are advertised at the incorrect price. If the term ‘agreement’ includes an offer, then the supplier must reject the offer (not cancel) and refund any payments.

Most online retailers, including Amazon, do not charge the customer until after the item has shipped or been delivered. So its within Amazon's ability to cancel the order up until then.

That’s blatantly false. Online retailers don’t ship until the charge goes through.

I'm quite sure it's illegal in the EU to charge money for an item that hasn't shipped. So it depends on legislation.

I've bought many things on the internet. You ALWAYS pay when you order. Even in weird cases, like on AliExpress, where the seller is only paid after you've confirmed to have received the package, you pay on ordering, and AliExpress themselves hold the money until you've received the item.

Holy shit, how you can continually ignore the part about the contract HAS STIPULATIONS in it to modify this?!

Just because Amazon says one thing doesn't mean that it can go against local, state, or federal ordinance, statute, or law. In Florida, they would have to honor it regardless of "glitch". CPB would likely review the case and determine that the customer did in fact see the price and paid for it. ToS does not supersede the law.
