Ok, I have ordered a total of 6 and our office has ordered perhaps 20 already. Best buy had an error on their page, selling a $2,400 laptop for $300. We've already received order confirmations and tracking #'s.

Take a look:

Maybe do a search for the model #. The page still comes up for me....

go to http://www.bestbuy.com then click on the computers tab, scroll down to laptops, then click on notebook pc's.

You gotta let us know how this turns out! If it works you are very lucky!!! :D

Woody!!

I'll buy 3 of the ones you have for $1000 Each!!!

The page comes up for me, but I think the disclaimer says it all... :(

I wonder if they've already shipped it and charged you the $300 before they find the error, if they can retroactively charged your credit card for the balance? Hmmm... :sarcasm:

$300 would be a good deal, but I must say, you may not find out that they might of actually made a mistake on their website until you get your credit card statement or your reciept with your box of computers :0: That is when you will find out if you actually got them for the "advertised" $300. When they catch their mistake, you'll know it.

Man, i wish that I could have gotten a hold of one of those!!

If they change the price back, I would return them and get your money back. They screwed up!! You should be able to get your money back.

watch you'll end up with 5 $2400 charges on your card. I heard they have done that before

My roommate ended up getting a few 100 gig hard drives from Dell on a situation just like this and it worked out fine. It wasn't quite the price difference that this is, but he got lucky and got it.

Here's what I got from Best Buy...
