  2. Pre-order Price Guarantee

    Amazon.com's price for not-yet-released items sometimes changes between the time the item is listed for sale and the time it is released and shipped. Whenever you pre-order a book, CD, video, DVD, software, or video game, the price we charge when we ship it to you will be the lowest price offered by Amazon.com between the time you placed your order and the end of the day of the release date. A pre-order price guarantee message will appear on your Order Summary during the checkout process. If you use 1-Click ordering, pre-order price protection will be automatically applied. The order summary in Your Account will reflect the lowest price within 24 hours of the price change.


  3. Germany only:

    Amazon.de behält sich das Recht vor, die Vorbesteller-Preisgarantie jederzeit und ohne vorherige Ankündigung ändern oder einstellen zu können, ohne dass dadurch eine Haftung seitens Amazon begründet wird.

    Suckers. Amazon.com does not have this restriction, so price guaranty in US is indeed a price guaranty, price guaranty in Germany means shit.

    I would complain anyway.
  4. Amazon will be covered by U2.com on this one. U2.com said that the actual product has changed, so what you pre-ordered would be different to what you would receive. So easier to cancel and ask yo to re-order. Very very sly

    Not in this case. Details on amazon are the same as on U2.com.
    It's rather the paragraph noiseless mentioned.
    They realised that the price was too low and fixed it. Never experienced that before on amazon. Let's see if the other sites deliver where I ordered the super deluxe for 31 and 56. Doubt it...
  6. I doubt that unfortunately. Still curious which shops you found :S
  7. I believe most sites do take their loss. I pre-ordered the JT superdeblabla box set before it came out very cheap at CD Wow and they sent it without a blink of their eyes.

    Amazon would have a tough one on this. But only in Germany it was priced too low and there in fact they just don't have price guaranty.

    Amazon US would probably send it to you, but as they have real price guaranty, they were careful.

    Dear U2 Customer,

    We regret to inform you that your U2 Rose Bowl Super Deluxe Box Set pre-order was canceled. Universal Music made a decision to redesign this release in order to include a wider variety of media content. The redesign changed the components in this release as well as the pricing.

    The revised “Pre-Order U2 360 At The Rose Bowl Super Deluxe Box Set (U2T48996)” will be made available for purchase in the next 24 hours.

    We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We look forward to you having the opportunity to enjoy this expansive, high quality product!

    Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions or concerns!


    Thank you,
    U2.com Customer Service

    So it seems I will be paying the big bucks like everyone else now


    It's not like something with all that stuff would ever be $40.


  9. Indeed, I was SO surprised when Yeah told us... But somehow I knew it was so wrong, they've realized that couldn't be the actual price. I wish they'd stop making this, it sucks.
  10. Don't let the bastards grind you down
