Some price drops on Amazon toys today...

[Jo..]

If you ordered toys the other day, check all your items to see if they've decreased. Amazon will issue you a refund for the difference if you email them.

A couple items I know have gone down:

Percy holiday 3 car set
Soft and sweet snow white and Belle dolls
Backyardigans pirate Uniqua and Mountie Tyrone

[Jo..]

Little Tikes sort and shape school bus is down to $4.77 (72% off)

[missym]

This service allows you to track your Amazon purchases for price reductions. It will send an email to alert you to request a refund.

I signed up with them on a few items last month, 3 decreased and it only notified me of one. I am unsure if they are glitchy or if I did something wrong!

[missym]

I'm sorry to hear that - it seems like such a neat service! I haven't used it much, just for a couple of items. Here are a couple of other sites to try:

These deals are killing me! Just bought some wedgits that I contemplated before. Can't beat the price - 2.51 for the 15 piece set in pink or 2.39 for purple.

Not sure if this was posted or not. I got two of them for Toys for Tots!

[Pennylane]

I just got 6 boxes delivered from Amazon and I just placed 2 more orders!! Thank heavens my DH is already out of town.

JK, Thanks so much for posting all these great deals!

[GB]

I know! My finger is itching to order some of them but I don't know who I'd give them to. The Plan Toys castle and tracter are both down to $4.xx. The tepee/Indian set is $3.xx.

[lilhilly]

A lot of the Plan toys are super-cheap now. I had trouble just getting up to the $25 amount for free shipping -- I think I had to put about 10 toys in my cart!

[kimbe]

Chutes and Ladders Seasme street or Dora $2

[JBaxter]

I had to order the doll house for my niece.... and about $100 in other stuff LOL>

Plan toys will love me...

[swan01]

BLAST! The dollhouse sold out while it was in my cart! It is back up to $69.99!

[lilycat88]

Back up to $60 something. I was CHECKING OUT!

ARGH

And what is frustrating is that it got moved to my "buy later" still at the 9.66 price and it won't let me move it. It's just there....taunting me.

[calv]

DARN IT! They just raised the price of the dollhouse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


PLEASE someone tell me once it drops in price again. :(

[babyready]

Did you get the $9.66 price? When I click on it, the price changes to 69.75, so a price INCREASE. How do I get the 9.66 price? I bought one the other day for the $32 price and would love an adjustment.

THANKS!

[swan01]

Double BLAST! Now the castle price went back up! Argh!

[emschwar]

Man, DH is going to kill me!

[AmyZ]

Yesterday I was so good. I bought NOTHING.

Today, I bought 29 toys for $69. My stash has *officially* been replenished.

Thanks, Miss Jo!

I was bad last week and again today. At least you were able to hold out for a while. At least I was able to get a refund for items that were priced lower of almost $30. Too bad I spent it all and then some today. The deals are just too good to pass up!

[xmasbabycomin]

Just FYI for those of you who bought the dollhouse yesterday(or anything else that was cheaper today), I talked to amazon on the phone (go to help, click on talk to customer service by phone - they called me back scarily fast). They refunded me the $22 or so bucks that the dollhouse went down, even though by the time I talked to them the price was way up again. ;) Yeah!

[babyready]

Glad to hear it, I just emailed them!

[Laurel]

well, I was just told by a rep on the phone that they CAN'T drop the price. Really bad connection and her English wasn't stellar so I didn't really understand why...

Anyone else get the refund on the house?

[GB]

Looks like almost all the prices have jumped up to full price again. Sigh. Now what am I going to do? :)

[thomma]

I got my order in just in time before the prices jumped back up. I got 11 things for $26. :)

[lilhilly]

I had a feeling the Plan stuff might sell out so I hit "order" as soon as I got to $25 and then started over with other stuff. I got the dollhouse, the castle, the tractor, and a ton of cheap Tonka trucks, and as it was, it was hard to get to $25. Then I spent $25 more on some additional deals (M&D puzzles, a Playskool flashlight, etc.)

Incidentally, if anyone is looking for cheap filler to reach the free shipping amount, there were several Uglydolls for $1.xx. I threw a couple in when I was about $2 short of the magic number.

[emschwar]

I got 9 things for $29.62. I calculated out the retail price plus what it would have charged for shipping and it was over $200. I told DH and even he was impressed :)

And the best part is that I am SET for birthdays for a long long time.

[nd93]

I was able to get in an order for the tractor and the Native American set, but my order shows as shipping in July! Anyone else getting such a late delivery date? We'll see if this stuff actually shows up!

[Maxlee]

I got an order in too just in time . . but it also shows shipping in July - will the stuff actually come? Does Amazon cancel orders?

It seems like none of the toys on the site are on sale now . . . hmmmmm

[emschwar]

My geotrax thing shows shipping in july. I hope it comes!

[babyready]

I just realized that the delivery date for the bulk of my order is July. Grrrr...at least most of this stuff are for Christmas presents or I would be more mad.

[Ksinglet]

If you don't mind my asking . . . how do you find out about these sales. It seems like as soon as I click on something the price already went back up. Just wondered how you get alerted to them in the first place. Thanks.

[mommy111]

Please have mercy on my strained credit card.....:)
How do you know how much you paid for the items in your last amazon spree. When I view my order history, it just shows me the items, not the price, so I can't look for price reductions. Are you just really smart at remembering how much you paid, or is there a list that I'm missing?
Thanks so much (I think) for all the tips!

[lilhilly]

The last time there was a big Amazon sale I was given a lot of late ship dates and everything shipped pretty quickly. I think they under-promise so you don't get your hopes up, but usually come through.

[lilhilly]

Click on "view order details" or whatever the button says (it's something like that) and it'll give you the total.

[mommy111]

OK, got it, thank you very much!

[GB]

Check 'em out again. Lots of prices back down to what they were this afternoon. I placed 9 orders today! I have a free Amazon prime account so most of them were really small, but still. DH was impressed with the deals though so I guess no harm.

[mariza]

I feel like I have been on this Amazon Merry Go-Round for 2 days now. I've put tings in my cart, only to wait to long and loose the deal. I walk away from the computer, I come back, put things in my cart only to have them *poof* disappear as I'm in the process of checking out. I go back to see if these items are back on and I see they are now ridiculously over-priced which shouldn't suprise me becasue they were ridiculously under-priced 5 minutes before ;-)
Yet I keep coming back for more torture, so Jo, I am begging you please stop the ride I need to get off for the sake of my own sanity.
Why can't they just have fair prices all the time??? But then, what fun would that be?
OK, mini rant over. I'm just really annoyed that these deals are slipping right through my fingers :)

[babyready]

COME ON!? Did I seriously miss it again!? Grrr...I should just never leave the computer, I guess.

[Jo..]

I placed 6 freaking orders...everytime I hit $25 I checked out because I was afraid to miss a deal. I only want about 1/3 of it. I wish there was a way to magically transfer items to those who missed them.

I need to see if I can cancel some things and combine shipping. Because my patient, generous, and saintly DH will faint if a hundred Amazon boxes show up on our doorstep.

[wendmatt]

I just added up how much stuff I ordered and I got $290 worth of stuff for $50 ($54 with tax). 22 items. I'm so excited. I did miss out on a few things that the price went up on as it was in my cart (v.frustrating) but I'm really pleased, especially after reading how many people did miss stuff. I just got really lucky with my timing. Thanks so much for the info.

[babyready]

What all did you order? Maybe you can pawn it off here! ;)

[kimbe]

I haven't even added up what I ordered! 13 items for $44. Only a few of them are for DD though. Most of them are for Toys for Tots this Christmas. There were just things that I couldn't pass up for that cause. The Geo Trax set for $4.xx is my favorite. I get excited thinking about how happy that is going to make a child! I got two of them!

There were a few things that I missed out on that slipped out of my cart. The Lincoln Logs were one of them. DD loves them, but honestly doesn't need them so it was probably a blessing that I didn't end up with them!

I am definitely working on a better *strategy* for next time!!!! ;)

Thanks again everyone --- now let's rest!

[Jo..]

I don't know where to start. But it's against the rules to sell here anyway. I would tell you what I bought but then you'd all be running to my house for playdates ;).

i will say that Adam already has an insane amount of toys, and we just bought a TON more. Some will go to charity. That sale was just INSANE.

eta I did manage to cancel some of it, I signed up for a free trial of prime (which I SHOULD have done when the sale started, DOH). So even though there were several orders under $25 I'll get free 2 day shipping.

[mommy111]

Thank you all ladies for generously sharing the deals that you find on Amazon (and thank you esp Jo for your stupendous bargain hunting skills!)
I just ordered a whole ton more of stuff after the last sale 3 days ago, but this time it was all for the baby shower of a family who cannot afford too many things for their new baby ($30 for 8 big-ticket items). So I feel good and a lot less selfish after the insane order that I placed for DD (myself) 3 days ago :)

[babyready]

How long does it usually take Amazon to get back with the price adjustment? I emailed yesterday and am just wondering when I will hear something. Anyone know?

Thanks!

[kcgirl]

I asked for my first price adjustment yesterday and requested it via the contact me page on Amazon. The next time I looked under my account information on Amazon, it was there! It was so much quicker that I expected.

[emschwar]

WTF?! I just checked my order online and now the sesame street activity cube is GONE and the order total is now 45.76! ($22 in shipping!)

I called amazon and they said that ALL orders with the activity cube have been put on hold for a pricing error. Can they do that? Don't they have to honor the price they sold it for, ESPECIALLY since they went back and sold it at that price again later?

Did anyone else have their order price change overnight? I am NOT happy about this!

[o_mom]

Technically, they are not 'under contract' until the product ships. There was a big thread on this at FW last year when everyone was ordering cheap bike trailers from Sears. Anyway, that's the idea - sucks for the buyer!

I would complain anyway, you don't know what they will do. At the least they should let you cancel the order or ship it free.

[cheme]

Thanks for posting - I just checked my order online and they did the same thing to me with the plan toys pull along snail. I had been right at $25 and they removed the snail and charged $23 shipping!! I am so mad - they didn't even email, just changed the order online.

ETA:
If you call Amazon at 1-866-216-1075 they will waive shipping charges. I'm wondering if more is going to be canceled though! :(

[LBW]

My order from yesterday was cancelled. I just talked to a rep about it. They made pricing errors on a bunch of toys yesterday afternoon, including the dollhouse, and they're in the process of cancelling all the orders and sending out emails. That also means there will be no price adjustments, according to the rep I spoke to.

I still think the original sale price is great, so I'm not too disappointed. I've been shopping with amazon for ages, and this is the first time they've made a mistake and canceled an order on me. So, I'm not too annoyed at them!

Good luck to everyone else who ordered yesterday. I hope some of the orders sneak through!

[xmasbabycomin]

OK, now I'm feeling sick to my stomach. They changed the price AFTER you already received your confirmation?! Is this for real? WTF indeed!

How many of you have had this happen so far? I already got my PA for the dollhouse (paid $33 on Mon) and the order details say (about that one item): "We are preparing these items for shipment and this portion of your order cannot be canceled or changed." Well, that works both ways, baby!

Hopefully the shipping dept. will be faster than the reps. I should go back and read that thread but I'm afraid my BP will spike. I spent so much time on this crap that Amazon will Feel My Wrath if I don't get all 12ish or so of my Plan Toys at their advertised price. OK, I'll stop ranting (for now).

[xmasbabycomin]

What's FW?

[MirandaMoes]

checked my order online and they took out a few things. looks like most of my wedgits are still there though! my dd loves them and they were a great deal!
i did email customer service though. although the items were not that important i still feel they should ahve sent an email letting us know if things were not avaiable.
good luck ladies!!

[xmasbabycomin]

> although the items were

>good luck ladies!!
>miranda

Yep, with any kind of order change there should be notification. And if this was just availability I could understand. But from what the 2 pps have said, this is because of "pricing errors". Basically they messed up so they're penalizing you.

Could those of you whose items were cancelled share what they were? I wonder if they're still in stock via amazon. If so, it's obviously not an availability problem no matter the price.

Well, hopefully we'll at least get our wedgits :)

[babyready]

uh-oh. Better email again.

Also, does anyone know how much the Plan Toys bathroom and outdoor sports toys went down to yesterday. I just was generic with my request but I think it would be good if I had an exact amount (I know the dollhouse price thanks to you ladies!)

[ShellB]

Yup, I highly recommend you check online against the confirmation email you got. I had a few items canceled and subsequently didn't make the $25 minimum, so they are charging me the shipping.

When I called, they said they would have to charge me the full amount THEN refund the shipping charges after the fact. Just warning. The refund takes 2-3 biz days.

What a PITA.

Love my boys!!

[babyready]

Goodness, they did take out something small and then hammered me with $25 shipping. It was the Plan Toys sorting boat. But the tractor I ordered is still in there. My account on Amazon doesn't even say they deleted anything, it just added the shipping. I had to double check it with my confirmation.

[neeter]

Yes...check your account on Amazon....everytime I check something new has been taken out of my "cart". I ordered $58 worth of stuff and its showing up as $45 now.

[Maxlee]

some of my items (plan toys) got removed from my cart and then the total was under $25 so they added shipping. I called and they told me it was a pricing error and that they would waive the shipping. I am still getting some good deals (although not nearly as good it was before the stuff was cancelled). Hopefully they don't' cancel the rest :(

Amazon said they sent an e-mail to everyone who was effected by the pricing error - I didn't get one? Did anyone get it?

[emschwar]

They took the sesame street activity cube from my order. When I called, he didn't say necessarily that it was cancelled, but there was a pricing error and the order was on hold until they sorted it out. BS. It's no pricing error if you did it, raised the price, then lowered it again.

I'll take the rest of my order if they take away the $22 in shipping they added on since my order wasn't over $25 anymore, but I'm still pissed. I ordered that cube for a birthday present for someone and now they're pulling this crap?

ETA - I just looked at my order and now more is missing:
V Tech Soothe & Surprise Nature Light
Plan Toys Shape & Sort

[Radosti]

I went back and checked my order from yesterday and they cancelled that silly $8 LBuddy Ride on toy, then whammed me with a HUGE shipping cost:
Item(s) Subtotal: $20.00
Shipping & Handling: $36.36
Super Saver Discount: $0.00
-----
Total Before Tax: $56.36

Wow!!! Almost double of the item costs. I called them and they will be refunding me the shipping. But if I didn't know to check, I'd get a really nasty surprise, let me tell you!!!

[helloall]

I had a bad luck today.
1) I didn't get an email when they took items out of my order. The order is less than $25. It has $18 shipping fee.

2) the customer service person on the phone told me she can't waive shipping charge, but can combine 2 orders I placed. So she cancelled one order and add the items with current price to the other order. As such, the total charge went up over $40. At that point, I didn't want to deal with her any more. So I cancelled both orders. What a terrible customer service!

[Radosti]

When I called I asked if I should be expecting the rest to be cancelled and he said "No, everything that's left in your cart is correctly priced."

[emschwar]

I never got an email. I happened to check my order this morning, and noticed the price had gone up on it dramatically, and that's when I noticed the removed item (well, item then, they've since removed 2 more).

I called customer service this morning, and then got an email saying "did this solve your problem". I clicked the no link. Gave them a piece of my mind and they replied with this:
"Thank you for writing to us at Amazon.com.

I've reviewed your correspondence thoroughly and I do understand
your concern with the pricing error. I don't blame you for being
upset, and I do apologize profusely for all of the mistakes which

Thank you for shopping at Amazon.com.

Please let us know if this e-mail resolved your question:"

I clicked on the no link again and really gave them a piece of my mind. This is beyond ridiculous.

[lilhilly]

I just checked my two orders based on these postings and the same thing happened to me. One item was taken out of one of my orders without any notification to me, causing the total to go below $25 and my shipping costs to shoot up to $32 -- in other words, 150 percent of the price of the toys! I sent an angry e-mail and if they don't waive the shipping charges, I will absolutely go nuts. I don't care about the cancellation, it's the $32 in shipping based on THEIR mistake that really gets my dander up.

[xmasbabycomin]

Yes, even if it's their policy (as if that were acceptable)
they neither contacted you (or any of us, it seems) or notified you of the cancellation as they state they will.

I guess they're still working on their "adjustments". I thought
I'd be safe but just had 4 of my items magically deleted.(all plan
toys). I never thought I'd be angry when my total cost goes down.

I had good luck when I called. They waived the shipping fee and told me that they were done canceling things on orders. So, hopefully, we'll be receiving everything that is left on my order.

Just out of curiosity, were the $9 dollhouses canceled? The ones from the other day ($32) were not, so I was just wondering. Almost all of my canceled items were Plan toys but not all of them. And then one Plan toys item wasn't canceled, the tractor. Just seems weird.

All you have to do if they won't refund shipping is print the current order info from their site and the initial e-mail they sent. Then, contact your credit card company and let them deal with Amazon regarding unauthorized charges. You will definitely get your money back!

Your tractor/trailer wasN't canceled? The ones that were $4.31? I had three which were JUST now deleted. That's one of the things I really wanted :( (I had 22 items and in the last hour it's become 15) I wonder if they really are done.

[emschwar]

Check again. I just had another 2 things magically disappear from my order. They are waiving the shipping, though it'll take 2-3 days to appear on my acct (at which point I'm afraid there'll be nothing left).

[LBW]

Yes, the dollhouses were cancelled. I posted about it earlier today. I received the one I ordered for $32 already and we LOVE it, so I'm sad that I didn't get the two I ordered as gifts. I knew $9 was too good to be true!

[Jo..]

I think some stuff disappeared from my order too, but I ordered so much I forget what's missing!!! :D

They price adjusted several Plan Toy items that I bought a couple days ago, but are giving me a hard time on the Native American set (which they claim was NEVER $2.14, but I saw it yesterday with my own eyes, and I paid $11 something)! I just sent another email so maybe I'll have better luck. I'm going to hound them for that $8, they have no idea what lengths I will go to to save a few bucks!!!;)

Jo, and that's why we love ya!!!

On hold with them now. I'm just canceling everything. They say they are done canceling, but that's just one person's word and I'm tired of calling them all day and checking what is missing in my order. I really didn't need anymore toys and now DH won't kill me. Plus who knows what I will actually be charged and what I'd have to dispute. To me it wasn't worth it.

They said they had a major pricing error so they are canceling orders that had the price error. ARGH.

So they ARE able to cancel and entire order, if you wish. Originally I was told they could not. But I argued that since THEY are able to cancel items out of my order, then certainly they can cancel the whole thing.

I'm so pissed at them. This is the first time this has ever happened! I wish they would just honor their prices since I do have the confirmation email of items and prices!

Jo - I bought the Native American set for $3.14 if that will help your cause. Let me know if you want to see my order confirm. It's already been shipped and is on it's way so they can't argue it's a mistake.

For everyone else, I'm so sorry you're having so many problems with this. I feel bad for having posted about the new deals that appeared to have been "pricing mistakes." I don't understand that at all since quite a few of the items that others have had cancelled are in a box on their way to my house now. I'll have to call them and complain about some of the other items they deleted from my order. I'm in Jo's boat though, I don't remember what I ordered and what I didn't anymore.

[jrn90]

They did it to me too- thanks so much for the heads up- I would never have know till the items came- I placed 5 orders abou $125 worth off stuff- today 4 of the orders no longer qualified for free shipping (thanks to amazon) and i was now being charged a total of $88.62 in shipping!!! So I called amazon and told them I did not want to pay any shipping- she said it would take 1-2 days to clear up but I made it very clear to her- no shipping charges- i also sent them a nasty e-mail. What really sucks is that I spent DS's whole naptime on amazon yeaterday and most of it today :(


ETA- I just cancelled all my orders- things were disappearing left and right and I was afraid I was going to end up with the "filler stuff" I bought to get to $25- I was able to cancel everything except a fire engine $4.97 that I may end up paying $7.90 for shipping on -that's ok considering it was org. $29.99 and selling for 18 now.

[mamasoup]

Can anyone please tell me what the phone number to call Amazon is?

Thanks,

My order has disappeared from my Amazon order history. Looks like I'm OOL.

[Radosti]

I've been sitting here biting my nails about my orders from a few days ago for those $23 Steel Fire Engines with free shipping. They both just shipped. Plus, it looks like the rest of my order from yesterday is still intact. However, the shipping charge is still up there.

[Jo..]

Yes, please! That may be why I am having a hard time with the price adjust, in my excitement I got a digit wrong (3.14 not 2.14).

I have never seen so much trouble with Amazon and I too am sorry. I also spent a good part of the day shopping and lost some (not all) of my items. I remember the last big toy sale like this (before they split from TRU), nothing was cancelled from my order that time.

My biggest losses from yesterday were that I missed the deal on the Plan Toys tractor and also I ordered THREE toy boxes (hahahahah) for $7.xx each (regularly $50 each) that vanished from my order. I don't have anywhere to put the toys!!!

If anyone got that Plan Toys tractor and wants to arrange a swap, I got a ton of good stuff and would be willing to trade better than the tractor value! TY!

[thomma]

I cancelled my whole order from yesterday... they were charging me $15 for shipping because they deleted one $2 toy. They haven't responded to my email and the phonecall to get my free shipping back didn't go so well. I don't have the time to screw around with them.

too bad...but nothing I really "needed"

Crap. It's gone now. They said they were done canceling. Idiots. Now, three more things are gone and I have a new shipping charge.

Now I am trying to decide whether to cancel the entire order or not. The three items I now have left are great deals but not the items I REALLY wanted. And is it really worth the hassle? I'm so pissed.

I get to call Amazon again. Yay.

[xmasbabycomin]

yep, $3.14. I also got a confirm but mine was delEted

[wendmatt]

I just checked my order and they've cancelled 5 items. I called them and they said they can't afford to offer certain things at the price quoted and someone will contact me to let me know soon. Bummer, it was some of the good stuff too. Oh well, it seemed too good to be true. I still have some stuff so we'll see if it ships out or they cancel that too, hope not.

[sc]

I don't mind cancelling 2 orders b/c of the high shipping charge, but I accidentally cancelled the 3rd order by mistake!! I emailed Amazon but they refused to reinstate the order for me!!!! I was so FRUSTRATED!!!!!

[xmasbabycomin]

oops, wrong place

[xmasbabycomin]

This thread is getting long so I started a new one,hope that's OK

[Jo..]

Fine by me! <thumbs UP!>

[GB]

CYE! I sent over my confirm. Forgot to mention that it's actually been shipped. Let me know if you need anything else to prove it. I'd go after them for the $8 too!

[Jo..]

Roseanne (GB) you ROCK! I sent 3 emails yesterday and they INSISTED that the Native American set was never $3.14. Late last night I sent them a final email and said "A friend of mine got the set for $3.14, and here is proof". This morning I got an apology and a refund. WOO HOO! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[greatcanuk]

I didn't get the price adjustment on the Plan Toys dollhouse either--their explanation was that you had to have asked for it the same day (i.e. Tuesday) that the price was down.

Camille

[GB]

Woo-who! Glad I was able to help! You've saved me so much $$, it's nice to return the favor.

[kahplayground]

Must have been a typo b/c the price is back up to $85...bummer.
