Ozbargained! :)
The thing with these 'deals' is that unless you keep them to yourself (in which case you have a moderate chance of getting them) it'll get ozbargained, and the cancellation emails will flow.
If I ever found one of these errors I'd keep it hush-hush until it was in my hands, then spread the love.
Just saying.I just can't remember the last 'deal' like this that was actually honored by the supplier.
Small transactions, no matter how ridiculous the pricing error, can often sneak through under the radar - if only one or two go through. If an item they generally sell 100 a year suddenly sells 500packs in an hour…But feel free to send hongtai.com.au a letter expressing your disgust and disappointment when the cancellation comes through - they sure deserve it.
It was more the fact that you share deals with everyone.. that's how this site works.. give and take equally kind of thing..
the minute you share it, it will most likely be a price error. Share it once you get one for yourself
Website meltdown
No one tell them plz
Website is fked
My shipping quote for 3 packs was $15! No deal…
Then add more to your cart
Got the packs in my car but can't get a quote
If they're already in your car don't worry about a quote. Just lock the doors and eat them all.
Sure did. How many did you go for?
49 for $20 :)
Managed to check out with 18 packs
let us know if you get them …
That's it… I'm going to make up a sister site to ozbargain.
It's going to be a gallery of every website and deal we managed to crash, I'm going to call it 'DOSbargain' :)
Got 10 packs for 21 AUD delivery via Fast way couriers
$15 post?
mine showed 21 AUd to Brisbane.
It also probably depends on the weight&quantitystill a Bargain for Macadamia Nuts) love them!
People actually bothered trying? Sad.
come on they might have lots of stock and just wanna get rid of it!
Turns out it's a scam… or at least the delusional rep believes as such!
Keep trying Guys.
I created a Wi Fi hot spot on my iPhone and it worked better I mean the websiteOMg 200 packs just gone!!!!)) so quick! Ozbargainers are very quick)))
Just ordered 1846 packs.
Ready for ebay/gumtreeim going to eat these in my new jeans…
can you wash the wasabi & seaweed off?
Would be awesome if it is possible. Bought 24 packs for $15 to VIC (25packs costed $20 delivery). Comes down to just over $3/kg, compared to $45/kg at Coles.
only 1451 packs left ozbargainers …
Was $35 delivered to WA so I justified it with 40 packs…
Maybe stocking fillers and surprise dips at work…
Cheers OP. Let's hope its not expired stock thou…
Let's hope its not expired stock thou…
I don't think that's what you need to worry about…
You know, pricing error and all!
Even worse, the rep is threatening not give refunds for their pricing error (see rep's comments below).
I didn't order, so I'm laughing :)
Yeah me too, I'm just glad I only saw this "bargain" after their delusional rep showed up. Seriously, the rep believes Ozbargain has some hacking powers or something…
Thanks OP. As other OZBargainers have mentioned, hope they're not short dated.
Op: Why even bother posting pricing errors? It's scenarios where everyone loses.
If it's error probably best if you keep to yourself and you might sneak it through. Once it gets Ozbargained, they'll pick it up real quickand cancel everyone's orders and you lose out as well.I haven't seen a single price error deal ever gone through properly.
Lol damn. missed out
"resource limit is reached "
Ozbargain Wins. FATALITY.
Please don't do this. We will refund all money tomorrow.
We don't do any discount at the moment. This is scam.
Don't order anymore through here.
Only order from our website.How is it a scam if it's from your site?
this is not from us check our website there is no error or discount
We don't sell our items like this
hey guys we will refund money tomorrow. We don't do any discount like this. This is a scam.
Hey hammershammered
What the (profanity) are you doing? We will report this.
We don't have any price error. you can't do this with someone's business.Somehow bloody somebody made things like this we are reporting this on PayPal now. we have checked our hosting etc there was no problem. This is a scam.
I never ordered a thing, was just wondering.
looks like your whole site is down?More likely somebody just made a clerical error.
It's $9.50 on our website.
Stop doing this. Who are you??@Hongtai: Nobody's doing anything (that I can tell), would be rather petty if it was somebody. Can you link us to your actual website?
lololololololol
Are you new to the internet? No one here is doing anything. It is YOUR website.
Thanks for handling this in a cool, calm and collected manner.
People in my family purchase your products, well they used to.
are you seriously criticising his panic. and his pleadings for people to stop ordering. and being mocked for it. keep your sarcasm to yourself. and your business. had to call his host to shut the site. why cant we just respect his first request to stop ordering. if I posted this, and he made a profanity at me, rather than say what you said just here, I would've said sorry I didn't mean to cause you panic and problems. yes you havnt said the hurtful stuff, but you have a lot of power in this situation, and your response has confirmed it is an us and him, when if you did a backflip it could've helped the situation.
when if you did a backflip it could've helped the situation.
People tried to 'teach' the rep that we are not a sales site, and we were merely linking directly to his site. He couldn't understand that.
No error on our website Im working on our website 24/7 and got confirmed from hosting company as well.
This is bloody scam. you can't do this.
But at hongtai.com.au for $9.50 plus postage any orders through oz bargain from now will not receive any refund til further notice
Guys be careful when you guys pay Things through here. This is too dangerous!!!
It's $9.50 on our website.
Stop doing this. Who are you??
this is not from us check our website there is no error or discount
So, do you understand?
What the heck are you on? You must've eaten too many wasabi macadamia nuts!
There's no scam here, just a pricing error on YOUR website.
No error on our website Im working on our website 24/7 and got confirmed from hosting company as well.
This is bloody scam. you can't do this.Then please show us the correct link to your product?
Restart your servers, they've got in, it must be a bug
Anyways I'll refund all money tomorrow and please don't order anymore we only get orders from our website.
Thanks anyways!So what is your website? It seems as though you're saying that this is not yours. But then saying you'll refund. Can you please explain?
Also, you might want to actually take down the site or change the price…
But at hongtai.com.au for $9.50 plus postage any orders through oz bargain from now will not receive any refund til further notice
you site says Zero , not $9.50. That is what people are trying to tell you. It is nothing to do with another site, your site has the error http://www.hongtai.com.au/english/something-savoury/wasabi-m…
So now YOU are running the scam. No refunds? No products? We aren't donating money you know…
So don't order from here!!!
what do you mean Here, they are ordering from your site - no orders are from OzBargain, you are in error if you think that.
This. is. hilarious.
Wouldn't it just be easier for you to change the price, rather than blame your customers for putting in an order?
I don't think I will be in future. Seems to be plenty of other more reputable stores I can buy from such as:
Royal Nut Company - $9.50/250gm
Nutworks - $12.75/250gm
Nutroaster - $19.99/500gm
Morish - $14.00/200gm
Something Aussie - $16.95/225gm
worse rep ever
I have made screen shots already! and also post from the Representative.
Its a good idea to report this as misadvertisement and bad promotion!
I will sent the request to Fair Trading.Rep shouldn't make any comments that we are scammers here! their mistake! their website
should do all orders!.
lets see what Fair Trading will replyplease do it.
Hongtai go to your website and search wasabi. You then click add to cart then the price goes to 0.00 when you choose 200g.
Once again I have screen shots as well. Visit www.hongtai.com.au
We only get orders from here. We won't send any orders from bargain sites.yes, then the wasabi macadamias are on your site here http://www.hongtai.com.au/english/wasabi-macadamia.html and it says $0.00.
People are telling you this.OWNED
Once again orders through oz bargain will not receive any refund til further notice
No one is ordering through ozbargain. Ozbargain is only linking to your site
Click the link to your website here: http://www.hongtai.com.au/english/something-savoury/wasabi-m…
Regular Price: $9.50
Special Price $0.00It is your fault the price is wrong
Hongtai it is zeeeeerrrrrrroooooo doooollllaaaarrrrssss
Rep is so confused right now lol. Oh dear.
This has just turned…
Hilarious!
Rep is so silly! just really naive.
Correct the bloody error on your bloody website! and not complain about Ozbargain community!But rep works 24/7 in website and host tell him it's fine!
Funny rep XD
Just admit it was your site having pricing error and be done with it.Peanut company store owner is verbally abusive after applying voucher which makes it look like I'm paying $0, can I sue them???
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH NEVER LAUGHED SO MUCH
Purchase it for $0 and the rep outlines that you will get no refund, oh really now?
ACCC
To be fair, Hongtai user is clearly just someone having a bit of fun and I doubt it's an actual store representative as the replies makes no sense whatsoever :) funny read nonetheless.
if only this was true…
