I was looking all over the net for a shortwave tabletop radio and had
decided on a Sony ICF-SW7600GR. I looked at Amazon.com and saw many
places to buy but what caught my eye was a place( I'll tell you when
it comes whereI bought it), and they show a price of $39.95. Well I
say sure it is and keep looking. Well, it says NEW for $39.95 and they
have a 5 star rating. So I say what the hell, I buy it for the $39.95
plus 7 bucks shipping. I get confromation of purchase by email and a
shipping date. I look there today and the price is back to $149.00.
You think someone goofed and coded in the wrong price? They have to
honor the price so how lucky is that?

They say it was Amazons error and they will refund the money I paid.
I argued with them but they won't budge. Sure Needs doesn't even have
a phone number. It takes 7 days to refund but the sure took the money
out of my account in minutes. It would be like me saying I'll take 5
bucks for an item on Ebay, getting paid then reversing myself saying i
put the wron amount on bid. You can't win with these guys.

Greetings from Sureneeds,
We regret to inform you that an error resulted in incorrect pricing on
April 18th for the item(s) you purchased from Sureneeds.com through
the Amazon.com website. We are unable to offer the item(s) for the
incorrectly posted price. This occurred due to a corrupted data feed
between Amazon and our self. Therefore, we have cancelled the item(s)
from your order xxx-xxxx-xxxxx and we have requested that a refund be
processed for the amount you were charged. This refund should be
processed within the next 7-10 days.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
If you have any further questions about this order, please contact us
at:

We value your business and hope that you will give us a chance to
serve you again in the future.
Sincerely,
Sureneeds

If it was me and I received an email like that,right then and there,I
would pick up my phone and call an attorney.I know a damn fine Attorney
here in Jackson.I know I would win.

Look in your phone book under Attorneys and phone one of them and tell
him (or her) about the problem.If you talk to an Attorney over the phone
for a couple of minutes,I don't think they will charge you any money.It
is the same thing as if you bought something at a physical store in your
area and after leaving the store,store personell came running out there
in the parking lot saying,Hold on there a minute,we sold (read that
agian,SOLD) you an item at too low a price.You have your receipt and
they can NOT do anything about it at all,the Law is on your side.I wish
it had been ME that paid (PAID) for that rado.I would just love (LOVE)
to see them try to get it back.I am not sue crazy and I have never tried
to sue (SUE) anybody before,but I would SUE! the HELL out of them!

I told them that. Amazon gets the money and transfers it to Sureneeds
who in turn sends the product to you. Basicly Amazon sent them the
order for $39.00 and Sureneeds said screw this and kicked out the
orderand issues a refund. It sucks but they aren't Wal Mart who would
have smiled and said our tough luck.

If you used a credit card, you could do a charge-back.

Paying thousands of dollars to sue over a $40.00 purchase is dumber
than a bag of Osage Apples.
