    Post directdeals.com Problem, Need Help

    I new to internet purchasing but here is what happened. Late Tues. night I way looking for a copy of win me to buy and stumbled upon a site selling it for $0.0 if you purchased 100 copies or more. I then purchased 100 copies and everthing went smoothly. The next day I got an email saying that my order way placed wrong, so I had to reorder. So I went to do it, but they didnt have any in stock. Then upon calling their sales help, and being treated like a total @*!% by some guy, I was told I was wrong and that everything I saw and did never really happened because they never had that many in stock, but that night they showed over 350 copies avalable. I have screen shots and copies of my order and the confermation; is there any way to go ahead and make them honor my order, because I know there was not an error on my end like they claim? Also, has anyone else had poblems with them?

    $0.0 - is that a typo? If not then I really doubt you are gonna get 100 copies of ME for $0.0

    They probably have a disclaimer somewhere on the site about typos, or they'll just create it after the fact.

    at 0.0 i'll take a thousand!
    but seriously if you meant that it was offered at good price remember that only OEM versions can be sold before sept.14. maybe they took a preorder and will ship them on the 14th? i always pay with a credit card, that way I let them deal with VISA if they don't deliver. frankly, i would rather deal with a truckload of lawyers than screw with VISA.

    Well, I just check out their site, and good lord, they have changed the options that I had before my call. I never really expected to get the stuff, but I hate getting jerked around for someone else's mistake. But I geuss you have to lie to save face.
