Anybody see this today? Apparently Amazon is offering this Calibre S LE for 99 cents lol

I’ve heard all sorts of hobbyist groups are purchasing them just to see what happens. I’m not playing, myself but can’t wait to hear what turns up!

I’ll buy that for a dollar

 

OK, I'll play. Bought one. Fingers crossed.

 

"Cannot be shipped to your location" (UK)

 

Probably wrong price. Wonder how they’ll get out of it.

 

Most of the guys I've spoken to just expect the orders to be cancelled. They probably don't even have that much stock so saying it's out of stock wouldn't even be a half-truth in my opinion

 

This is all automated so who knows. It even says Amazon is the seller, not a third party.

 

Yes, that's why I decided to play. But it's supposedly a 1 of 3500 LE, so how many of these can they have? My wife thinks I'll get a picture postcard of the watch. LOL

 

It wouldn’t a very expensive postcard

 

I have cancelled my order.
Not long after placing the order, got a suspicious phishing text message claiming to be Amazon.
I also noticed it's not sold by Amazon directly, but rather "Amazon.com Services LLC". So I'm out of the game.

 

Oh interesting. The plot thickens!

 

Did your other friends get anything yet?

Although I canceled my order, Amazon was never able to confirm the cancellation on their end. The status still shows as "Attempting to Cancel", even though I canceled last Sunday (Oct 2) prior to any shipment.

Then yesterday, I got an email from Amazon saying the seller still hasn't provided shipment details yet, hence my credit card will not be charged. Amazon refers to seller (Amazon.com Services LLC) as if it's a third party in the email.

 

Nope, nobody has received anything. (Nobody really expected to, though)

 

Some guy on wus claims today his order is to be delivered on Wednesday

Congratulations to him then!

 

Well lets not get ahead of ourselves, will be interesting to see what he receives

 

My order was finally officially canceled.

In looking at that wus thread, doesn't seem like anyone has received anything yet. The suspicious phishing message I received might've been coincidence, but I think not.

 

Got another email update stating the following:

I think I would've been more amused if I had gotten a picture postcard.
