There´s some right amazing deals there! Luckily, I just recieved a small tax return that and spent half of it on Amazon today! It would have been wiser to save the money for a rainy day but I will manage and even keep my bank account out of red numbers  The ultimates Omnibus (collecting vol 1&2) $8,24
Daredevil (brubaker) Omnibus 1 $8,24
Death of Captain America Omnibus $8,24
Invincible Iron Man Omnibus $8,24
Complete Invincible Library $14,99
Madman: Gargantua $14,99The Marvel Omnibus are $8,24 a piece and the other two hardcovers are $14,99. Facotoring in shipping this will cost around 600 DKK. Considering that one Omnibus goes for 500 DKK in my comic shop then this is a massive bargain! It´s also the most I´ve spent on a single comic purchase in many years but I can make it work economically with the tax return so it´s definetly worth it ;D |

It is indeed a glitch and some people have recieved cancellation emails. Others who placed multiple orders on the same book have been told that Diamond will sell one copy of each item for the wrongly listed price. I only ordered one copy each and haven´t revieced a cancellation email. My order won´t be shipped until March 23rd so I´m not in the clear yet but here´s hoping. After all it will be the comic book deal of the year - I´ve ordered items with a list price of $530 and paid $63 excluding shipping  ;D |

I got a mass email last night awarding me a $25 gift certificate due to their pricing mistake. That was a very nice gesture, since they didn´t have to honor an order based on a system price error. I didn´t expect anything but that´s damn good customer service Funnily, I did not recieve the original cancellation email and my order still stands. In fact, the Death of Captain America and Invincible Iron Man has been moved to the "Shipping soon" during the night while the other four books have a "not yet shipped" status. It´ll be interesting to see if they will go through but I still doubt it. The $25 gift certificate will be used to Purchase the Dilbert 2.0 book that´s currently selling for $35 (discounted from a $85 list price). Factoring in shipping it will be it will be around $30 and a damn sight cheaper than I am able to get it in DK |

I ended up dragging my feet as I wanted to sleep on it so I'm not even getting that. Still that's a good deal for you Peter.

Well, I´ll be damned! I've recieved shipping conformation for two of the six books I ordered, The Invincible Iron man Omnibus and the Death of Captain America omnibus, and Amazon honored the $8,24 price! Shipping included this amounts to a staggering $25,78!  Amazon cancelled the four remaining items, but I´m happy just to recieve two of them. I also still have my $25 gift certificate so that´ll go toward the Dilbert 2.0 book which will cost me paltry $24 (shipping included)! I´m so freaking happy ;D |
