jinnetics said:I just got my 3 individual books today, after canceling my gift set order last week.
I called and asked them to do that.... the guy hemmed and hawed a bit, then "asked someone", then came back and said he'd cancel the order and give me a $20 promotional discount on my next order. That, plus the $5 promotional discount they gave me when I first complained about the gift set delay, put my final cost with Standard Shipping at just under $44.
I am happy.

"We make a significant effort to keep abreast of prices and availabilities, but our reliance on our suppliers for information about the items they offer means that, occasionally, our database will not reflect all changes.
And, please note that at this item is bundled by the supplier, hence we are unable to pull each book or volume for delivery.
Again, we are very sorry for any disappointment this has caused. Please know that we value your business and hope to see you again soon at Amazon.com."
Even after explaining the difference.

mearlus said:Those who have canceled and ordered the individual books, did you or have you used an amazon gift card? I'm curious how they refund it, if they just re-add the amount to your gift card "account balance". I'm pretty sure they wont screw me out of the $50 gift card if I cancel and order individually, but I'm just a little paranoid about them now
