These types of things come up from time to time on the SlickDeals forum, and the vendor usually sends a "we goofed" e-mail a day or two later, so I'm not holding my breath. Occasionally, a few shipments slip through the cracks, though.

nope! i didnt tell them about it..im not that dumb...i called to place an order and gave the rep the order number and then he put me on hold for a while and told me theres seems to be an eror in there part and is being corrected .. if i proceed with my order i can be charge for the regular price and they will not honor a typographical error..so i told him to cancel my order then
I don't know if they have to honor the price they charged me, but I don't think they can hit my credit card with whatever price they decide to charge without my consent. Can they?
It says:
Save 97%
That must be some sort of automated web update as one would think that an employee might consider that discount a bit too deep

it's 7:40 as I'm writing this and the offer is still on their website. I ordered a pair to test the waters. (with crossed fingers)
Nope, but -- speaking from experience here -- that won't always stop a confused seasonal employee from doing it.
I had an absolute imbecile at MF phone bank named "Bob" -- who was so clueless he pronounced "bass" like the fish -- charge my account $1300 for a Jazz bass I didn't order and they didn't send when they didn't have the sale one I unsuccessfully tried to order. It took a week to get the charge off my card after I started having my card mysteriously declined for stuff. MF's customer service management was understandably mortified at this gaffe and gave me a pile of credits and discounts for my trouble, though.
i know the rep mention it to me but i've just notice it.....but if you scroll all the way to the bottom of the page where it says (Copyright)....its says they are not responsible for typographical errors

Ordered three anyway just for a laugh, but I'm not expecting anything more than some apologetic future discount for their screwups, though AMS being pretty dirtbaggy about that sort of thing, I'm not holding my breath.

I ordered some too. Normally monitors are priced singley, so those people ordering '3 pairs' may end up with only 3... 
During christmas time...I'm glad I don't. Otherwise my tree would be full of gifts from myself to myself.
