Amazon won't honor pricing mistake By <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:%20Amazon%20won%27t%20honor%20pricing%20mistake>Matthew Broersma Special to CNET News.com March 19, 2003, 7:53 AM PT Amazon.com says it won't fill the orders of customers who took advantage of a pricing error on its U.K. site to buy iPaq handheld computers for less than $12 on Wednesday.
The company said that its terms of use strictly state that no contract for sale has been formed until customers receive an e-mail stating that their order has shipped, meaning it has no obligation to hand out Hewlett-Packard iPaqs at rock-bottom prices. "We will be canceling orders made for the HP iPaq Pocket PCs at the incorrect price this morning," the company said in a statement. Larry C.
