Overstock.com mistakenly lists Call of Cthulhu for 25% of MSRP

If you look close they have the Game of Thrones card game listed for the same price. Essentially the same product so it might not be a typo.

Looks like those Game of Thrones card games are all the expansions though.

Well, that's what I get for reading product titles and not clicking on the links.

A tempting price but it's pretty obviously a mistake. I don't think this could even be at cost for them. I don't think it's a good idea to take advantage of somebody's typo.

Considering Overstock is touting this as being 75% off of the Amazon price, I call shenanigans on any claim the price is a "mistake".

Yeah, I noticed that too. Made me curious.

More likely, they automatically check Amazon's price for each of their products and display that little box if they're at least X% cheaper than Amazon.

In other words, that's neither evidence for nor against it being a mistake.

Thanks. I pre-ordered it.

It's possible this deal is real. Overstock does offer huge discounts sometimes when they get a really big shipment of stuff. So, I am hoping this is real.

So... anyone received their copy yet?

So we can be told if the deal is legit or not. Pretty sure it's supposed to be out by now...

They've pushed the shipping date back to the end of February.

EDIT: I take that back, it's been silently pushed back to the end of March and on the product page it says it's sold out.

At least one person on Boardgame Geek claims to have had their copy shipped from Overstock, but most people are in the same predicament as me.

 

[Mistwell]

Yeah, mine said "Presale, expected to ship Mar 28, 2009"
