I see no reason to complain about amazon pulling this off, this is the 4th forum I read about this, so in the times of the internet and the fast spreading of such mis-priced items, I think it is a fair move...

This really was a very obvious mispricing. It's absolutely understandable that Amazon aren't accepting so many cheap pre-orders.

With Amazon's huge range of products, mistakes like that are simply not avoidable!

Greetings!

not really surprised at them not honouring the pre-order, it's understandable. and like Wayfarer said, they're still the best online retailer for me...

I just got the same email! I think amazon would be even better if they were with quidco and gave cashback like every other online retailer does. This really puts me off using amazon. 9 times out of 10 zavvi is cheaper too nowadays

My order of Silent Running was also canceled. But I ordered the steelbook blu anyway, at 12.89 that seems a good price.

Maybe true, I don't know. But Silent Running Steelbox is 19.95 at Zavvi, and 12.99 at amazon.co.uk

That's certainly something in Amazon's favour !!( I've also ordered that steelbook from amazon). To be fair I think I'd like to reduce that statistic to 7 times out of 10 :p Its just seemingly all the BDs I've bought lately have been from zavvi as they were the cheapest when I did a price comparison.

I got my cancellation email too. I've already called them and informed them I'll be taking it to the European Court of Human Rights.

I've gone one better than that. I've lodged an official complaint with God. I fully expect Amazon to be struck by lightning.
