Rappan Athuk Reloaded on Amazon

[Captain Howdy]

So the official price for the Rappan Athuk Reloaded box set is $75, but I see it on amazon for $25... I want to order it from amazon, but I don't want the order to be screwed up because of an error with the price. Has anyone had any past dealings with stuff like this where prices aren't updated?
Will I get it for that price? Will I get it and be billed for the difference? Will I not get it at all? I don't mind paying the full $75, but I don't want to miss out on the box set because of some kind of error.

Sometimes Amazon honors the original price.

Othertimes they cancel the order.

Othertimes they update the price and give you an option to keep your order at the new price.

Joe's got it.

I'd say, though, if you want to be sure you get a copy, pre-ordering from the White Wolf website (and paying the $75 + shipping) is the way to go. Only 1,000 are being made.

As of about two months ago over 300 are already pr-sold, and I pre-ordered mine since then. Plus they (meaning Necromancer) usually sell out at Gen Con, and they haven't given how many they are trying to have at GenCon. They are probably waiting to wait and see what the pre-sale numbers are before going to GenCon. If you really want one, and the free pdf of RA:R and the original RA, and any other freebie they may add, pre-order. I know it is painful, but the pain goes away when you get it in the mail and open up the box.

About a month ago, I emailed Amazon.com pointing out their error (via the update details thing on the page). I tried to explain it as well as I could, and I gave them a link to the home page on Necro's site with the real MSRP and all that.

They emailed me back saying they "Sorry, we don't price match other websites"

Well, I'll buy that for a dollar.

Haha that's too funny.

I'm just gonna order it from WW. I could use the PDF freebies, and I was prepared to pay the full price anyway. While getting it for $30 from amazon would definetly be nice, I don't think that's gonna happen, and I don't want to risk not getting a copy at all...

I shudder to think what they will sell for on Ebay when and if all 1,000 copies are gone.

OK, so I preordered RAR as well as Ptolus, and I find out that the preorders of Ptolus will be available for pickup at GenCon.

Has anyone heard anything similiar from White Wolf about Rappan?

 

[Treebore]

I think Necromancer is just worried about having enough to sell at GenCon. Especially since Clark isn't going to make it. That just leaves Bill to handle everything.

 

[freebfrost]

But does the GenCon stock include the pre-orders? If we pre-ordered are we able to pick up our copies at the con?
