How?

Some places like Best Buy honor these even if they're fake. They won't do it for everyone but early finders of the sale will benefit from it

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.

Trying now, I'm not able to get the 19.99 price again. Tried other browsers, trying some VMs next.

It's no loss if my order was canceled. It was a $20 gamble for something I didn't really need. Best case we get cheap WD blue SSDs, worst case we're back at square 1 before anything happened lol

My order is still confirmed. Perhaps they will be honoring the purchases.

Order confirmation emails came last night after I ordered. No indication of them canceling orders yet, though I imagine it would take some time to write up an apology/cancellation email and send it to all buyers.

 

So far so good. Congrats to everyone that got one, this thread was pretty active last night, plus there were over 1000+ posts on SlickDeals about this, one dude saying he bought over 100 for a company.

I have a problem...

 

I bought a 4th one.

 

Except I have plans for this one...

 

One SSD i'm gonna give away on the LTT forum

 

Two SSDs i'm gonna flip on ebay for profit so I effectively spent zero on everything

 

The 4th SSD i'm giving to my sister who has a really old C2Q desktop from 08 that just needs an SSD upgrade to be new again.

 

Then again, dell could just say this was a pricing error and refund all my money, then this whole thing falls through. 

 

We'll see what happens then ;).

 

EDIT: All I can say is nobody tell Dell. If you do tell Dell they will probably send you something stupid for pointing out the price error. But then that would ruin the fun for all of us, wouldn't it?

Plz give to meh.
