That's gotta be a listing error, but what the heck! I ordered 5 packages, even though I rarely use 9's. I can give 'em away as gifts!

That's what I figured...nothing ventured, nothing gained. If they don't come, meh....if they do then I got 70 packs of XL's for $28

I just got a notification from MF that they're backordered!

I haven't gotten the backordered email yet. Hopefully I got in before they ran out. At least they are only backordered and not canceled!:thumbsup

Ya jinxed me, PS! I just got a cancellation notice on the order. Not surprised--I'm sure that price listing was an error....

Yep - cancelled. I just called, and they said they cancelled all of 'em because of the pricing error. So much for big-box music stores/sites.:whatever:

OK, here's my deal. After not hearing anything from them by this morning, I called MF. I was told by Customer Service that it had been canceled...blah blah blah. So I got into a discussion about my money having not been refunded and that offering something at one price and being offered something else at a higher price is called bait & switch...yada yada yada. BTW, they did offering to sell me the 10-packs @ $20.99 each to show how nice they are making an innocent mistake. Anyway, after battling to a impasse with the Customer No-Service rep, I asked for a supervisor. After a appropriate "maybe he'll hang up' time a supervisor got one the phone. I gotta admit.....she was as nice as she could be and said she understood me being frustrated.....blah blah blah.....but that she couldn't sell me the ten packs any cheaper than the $20.99, and she doesn't know why they hadn't refunded my $28 yet. So I says to her.....well, how about just giving me 2 ten packs for my $28? She thinks about it....says she will have to get approval......comes back in a minute and says alright......two 10-paks for the $28.00 I had already paid. And I say "and of course you'll overnight them to me" just kinda being a smartass and she says "of course". So I didn't get the 7 ten packs I ordered at $4.01 each, but I did get 2 ten packs overnighted to me for $28. Still sucks, but not quite as bad.

Wow, you're my hero this week, PS! Cool that you still got something at a really good price. Way to go!

Dag, $4 for a ten-pack would have been sweet. I don't feel so bad for missing out on that now, since it wasn't actually real.

After working my deal with MF they were actually out of the D'Addario strings and would not be back in stock until next week.
So this morning I talked them into switching my order of 2 ten-packs of D'Addario strings for $28 and overnight shipping
.....to 2 twelve packs of my regular Ernie Ball brand for $28 and overnight shipping. So, I scored an extra 4 packs of strings
just for calling and asking them to switch. :)
