I don't think threads should be locked just because people are discussing a dead deal. That's what the forums are for. There was no fighting going on in the Avon thread. I think it was uncalled for to lock it. Maybe it could have been moved to off topics since it is dead. :noidea:
 
Why sit there and keep on bumping up a dead post with nothing but everyone complaining about an obvious pricing error. It was a known crap shoot in the beginning, the OP knew this by the title. But everyone feels they deserve something for nothing because they tried to take advantage of a mistake. How would you feel if thousands of people tried to take advantage of you over a mistake you made? I am sure there were tens of thousands of orders to process and cancel, guess Amazon did not move fast enough with the cancelations.

Yep I agree about Avon not fulfilling every order that's why I posted this. :)

This doesn't really qualify under the Amazon.com A-to-z Guarantee since no payment was received. If credit cards were charged that would be different. Price mistakes happen all the time on Amazon and they don't guarantee them. I do find it frustrating that some received their orders and some didn't but Avon is not responsible to fulfill all these orders. On another deal site this deal got 59,559 views. There is no way they could send out that many orders!

Still, I am not a fan of locking threads without any warning especially if there is no fighting going on. :(Too bad there wasn't a thread for expired deals. That way the more popular deals could be moved out of the other forums for discussion and not get bumped up in the freebies or hot deals section. :convinced:

I was going to lock the thread, but I wasn't able to get to it. It was a mistake, they caught it, move on.
