[PRICE ERROR] A Higher Loyalty by James Comey - Hardback Preorder $2.95 Angus & Robertson

Moved to Forum: Original Link

Definitely a price error as it is $30+ everywhere else and likely to be a bestseller. Its an extra $7.50 for delivery. Its worth it if you were gonna purchase books from Angus and Robertson.

    Ordered and got free shipping as well thanks to Booko. Let's see if they honour it.

    • Ordered 1 as well with free shipping thanks to OP and Booko. Now we wait.

      • Ordered as well, thanks heaps for the booko information :)

        • how do you get the free shipping?

        • +14

          @El Cap: Use promo code - EASTER18

        • @Nico86: Somehow, the free shipping appeared before the code. Thanks. Could be useful for others.

        • +6

          @El Cap: Note that when you follow the link from Booko, it's $37.84. You have to first follow the link to activate free shipping and then click the Go To Deal link above to make it $2.95.

        • @bootlace: I think that's what has happened without realizing it. Thanks.

        • @Nico86: OP should add this to original post, I didn't figure out how to use booko but the promo code worked for free shipping

        • +1

          @Quantumcat: Yes. You can use that free shipping code for any book on the Angus and Robertson Bookworld website until the 21st of March 2018.

      They should honor it. Is advertised as 92% off.

  • I don't know who's left in thos administration that was there from the start…

    • No-one that's not related to Trump.

      • James Mattis, Secretary of War.

    • Even Ivanka and Jared got the boot

  • Interesting how things have turned so bad that he's regarded as the good old days despite the controversial things he did during the election.

    • +1

      He gave people the "other" to blame for all their problems. The fact that American's bought him is the big problem - as is being shown day by day.

      • +1

        Well as a USAn once quipped, they have the best government money can buy.

  • Thanks Op.

  • +1

    Amazing… $2.95 and free shipping when following the link from Booko.

    Thanks Op!

    Trump is a walking disaster area, he is a human Godzilla. At a minimum somebody needs to take his phone off him, or get him off whatever he is taking at 2:00 in the morning.

  • +1

    Placed an order - expecting they won't honour it and will refund my $2.95. Thanks OP though, fingers crossed!

    • If I screen shot their sales page and receipt, are they legally obligated to sell this book at that price? Not sure the rules work for online stores. But yeah, fingers crossed.

      • +8

        They are obligated to give you a refund at best.

        • Ok, Thanks.

          @Twizted Bargain:

          Always interesting when people use the phrase 'legally obligated' - especially when in reference to price errors. I'm not wanting to offend you here but I'd note:

          • Most retailers have a policy that covers pricing errors and omissions
          • They also don't have to sell an item to you, legally or otherwise

          The legal obligations are to protect people from dodgy practices and to warrant them to get acceptable goods and services. It isn't so great to try to twist those protections to get a bargain.

          Please note that doesn't mean I don't think you can't take advantage of a pricing error (that's a whole different kettle of moral judgement) - I am a OzBargain member after all. Just that I don't think you can try to twist a vendor's arm about it..

        • @jason andrade:

          LOL what has the T&C got to do with the law?

          Here is my understanding:

          Price listed on website - non binding invitation to treat

          Placing an order - offer, still non binding

          Acceptance of payment - acceptance of contract

          HOWEVER no one has had the balls to really push and properly test this YET

        • -1

          @LoopyLou:

          except for the last part.

          Acceptance of payment - provisional acceptance of contract, non binding, pending QA
          Refund of payment - non acceptance of contract due to failure of QA (or other reason)

          Acceptance of payment with confirmation of delivery - full acceptance of contract, binding

          may be more accurate.

  • thanks for sharing.

  • +6

    Ordered one and I don't even read.

    Probably use this as a paper weight holder or something

  • Thanks OP and Booko!

  • I'm going to guess that they meant $29.95

    • +1

      It does say 92% off. Maybe not a price error.

      • +5

        That's probably calculated automatically from the RRP and current price once entered. Probably a fat fingers error.

  • doesnt seem to work? redirect from booko to Angus Robertson shows as 37.84

    EDIT: figured it out

  • Wonder what hogwash he comes up with regarding the handling of Hillary's emails.

  • Website is being MC hammered?

  • Thanks OP, if they follow through with this offer it will make a great addition to my dad's birthday present in august

  • Ordered with booko, praying it comes through! Great find OP!

  • Why would I buy a book from a guy that cowers in the blueberry curtains? Who was “afraid” of Trump especially while alone?

    • cheap present!

  • Bought one, thanks OP!

  • Looks like they fixed it.

    • Still available

    • must have added it to the cart in time because i just bought it at $2.95

      • Weird. I added it to cart and it was full price.

        • were you too late?

  • +2

    I think most are working it out. The Booko link doesn’t show the $2.95 deal. But a quick James Comey search on Booko brings up the special. Click the link. Which will go to a page stating free shipping when directed through booko to the Angus & Robertson website. Automatically directs to Angus & Robertson after ten seconds. Add book to cart. Shows the total with postage but when you go to pay. It will discount the postage off to bring the total to $2.95 delivered.

    • Okay yeah these steps worked. Just following the link from this post didn't work for me, even adding the book to cart and going to checkout kept it at full price.

      • +1

        Doesn’t help that it’s the wrong link in the description. Multiple entries in booko of the same book doesn’t help either.

  • +3

    Got this book. Will probably try and resell it at its normal price. Also got the Jordan Peterson book and Wolfenstein, so yes i'm a Nazi who enjoys killing Nazi's and also an evil capitalist.

  • Got one! Thanks!

  • +7

    you had me at 'price error'

  • +2

    Just received order confirmation.

    • Also :)

    • Don't get excited.. It's not a shipping confirmation :)

  • Ordered but it said it was a pre-order due after 17/4. Still happy if they honour it :)

  • +9

    Comeys loyalty is so cheap it's on ozbargain.

      I think they’ll be paying people to take Trump’s book.

  • Thanks OP. Great price for what should be a good read. And free shipping is the icing on the cake!

  • +1

    Interesting to see if this gets shipped. 2.79 after Cashrewards :P

  • Hope they'll honor it. Cheers OP

  • These guys need to set some flags for an abundance of visits/ sales of any particular item. This has been up for a whole working day. Maybe it’s not a pricing error. Just a mass brainwashing disguised as a bargain.

  • +2

    Hmm…also bought it free shipping with the promocode EASTER18….given how many people have bought it, I'm doubtful they will honor it though!

  • +1

    Milk the cow till it’s dead! True Ozbargain style.

  • Just ordered mine with free shipping
    :)

  • +4

    Ordered. So, what is the book about?

  • didn't get confirmation :(

  • +2

    Want to buy but what will I do with it?

    Maybe a gift.

    Edit: Okay bought one with free postage will give to my sister as a birthday present.

  • +3

    I don’t read. Bought anyway. #ozbargainlife

    • Haha… I'll pay that.

  • Even though it's most likely they won't honor it, I tend to go for it anyway because it's possible they'll give you something as compensation, like a voucher.
    Better to give people a $5-$10 or "buy one get one free" voucher than a $30-40 dollar book.. You may not get what you wanted, but it's better than getting nothing.

  • They've now removed it from sale.
