What do you reckon they made in sales volume for this potential pricing error? Let's assume $600k. And assume They put that money in an ING savings account at 3% interest. All of a sudden it's making them $50 per day. They sit on it for a month that's $1,500. That's a pretty penny for not much work, and it's pure profit.

I'm expecting an email in a week saying pricing error, and that refunds will take a further 3 weeks to process lol

I think it's a real deal guys. I was checking my AusPost status for my other orders and I saw a new parcel tracking added automatically to my AusPost profile from someone in Homebush NSW. Upon Googling looks like it's Graysonline office in Homebush NSW. https://g.co/kgs/9QcGzy

I ordered directly from their website FYI. So there is hope after all!

      My bad guys, but definitely about AusPost automatically adding tracking to your registered mypost, yes it does get added automatically as I bought off the Salter weight scale off grays eBay using different email to the AusPost account.

I had tried to cancel my order from eBay after purchasing from their direct website, but this morning got an email saying my purchase had already been processed to ship. Maybe some good news after all?

Don't really mind if they can't cancel my eBay order. I'll end up with 3 SSDs at a bargain price then!

I hope Grays considers the intangible effects of this error. If they Don't Ship the item out then hundreds of probably unique customers will remember this experience when finding an item they want on their website and will be more likely to avoid them. If they do refund us then they should consider compensating the customer with something like credit at the store. If they just give us a refund then this could potentially do more damage to the potential revenue of their company which could be greater than the value of the products sold(+negative reviews on ebay wont help)
- Scotch on 12/03/2017 - 17:35
  
  Paypal - Pay after delivery. Glad i utilized that option. Still, i'm trying to stay hopeful that this is not an error. Otherwise, Grays gonna get some bad publicity, and from the looks of these comments, not only from me!

    - Scotch on 13/03/2017 - 09:40
      
      i believe anyone can use it but im fairly certain it can only be turned on when you have a bank account linked as primary not a CC. I cant remember how i turned it on, you may need googles help for that.

      When I log into paypal it tells me that they have already paid grays but will debit my bank account in a few weeks time.

Given they didn't send out emails cancelling. I think the real issue here is that they sold out so quickly and maybe have been overwhelmed by the number of orders they have to dispatch.

However like most I'll just wait and see, then if it comes decide what to do with it… 😀

If it doesn't then I dont have to explain another purchase to Mrs Raccoon

      Probably an insurance job. Importer shipment experienced an issue and they were paid out, leaving the insurer with the goods to dispose of.
      
      Parts send to auction to recoup costs.
      
      Similar to the deal below:

    - CH on 14/03/2017 - 11:26
      
      @xuqi: Grays usually auction them in this scenario, though if they do have >1000 SSD's it would probably take too long.
      
      In early 2010 I got 5 (of 100 or so) brand new 300GB 10,000rpm Raptor drives through Grays auctions for ~$115 each (PCCG were >$400 at the time), only downside was less (1yr) warranty as they were HP rebranded.

I looked at my last purchase from Grays, direct from their website as per this deal too, although the last one was an auction, and it was 6 days from paying and receiving invoice, to getting next contact to say it was being shipped. So their crappy communication is normal, their website gives you no update when you look at the purchase.

  I noted above that I received positive feedback from them as a buyer for the transaction. No other correspondence though and I've not attempted to contact them. I'm happy to wait and see what happens.
  
  I notice that the item says 269 sold, but we know there were considerably more listed. Perhaps they only had 269 to begin with and completely stuffed up the listing.

Most likely worked out it would cost them over $200k to honor
pinchies on 14/03/2017 - 13:28

I personally purchased some from ebay and some from their site. They can pull whatever kind of stunt they want on their own website, but on ebay there is no way as a seller to 'back out' once things have been paid for, and if you try (e.g. refund and just never deliver), you're going to absolutely hammer your ebay feedback into the red.

I'm really wondering whether they will honour ebay purchases, or whether they would rather burn their account with the negative feedback wrath. The issue with honouring the ebay sales, is that then it looks like they have treated customers on their own website worse than those via ebay, and that will certainly do no favours for their poor reputation.

I expect they are in discussions with ebay at the moment - presumably the amount of negative feedbacks they will incur would cause ebay to close their account for violating the ebay terms of service for not delivering - and since it is not ebay's mistake they are unlikely to want to bend the rules for them, it would be unprecedented for ebay to allow orders to be cancelled due to a pricing error. Grays is for sure stuck between a rock and a hard place!

I don't know there is much that grays could offer that would placate customers after this delay - a store credit is certainly not going to go down well, for some that might even come across as a bait and switch.
- roddy84 on 14/03/2017 - 13:40

  I don't think the negative feedback would be an issue. They would have ebay remove them.
  - pinchies on 14/03/2017 - 13:43
    
    I'm sorry, but I can't see why ebay would do that? Why should they - its not ebay's mistake, and then people will be angry at ebay, as small sellers don't have the same privileges.
    - xuqi on 14/03/2017 - 14:19

      EBay is a business so like any business they look after #1. After that they will certainly look to support their high volume clients ahead of other members.
      
      1000 individual pissed off customers is far better than 1000 negative feedback's for one of their high volume sellers.
