this is exactly like Chwee Kin Keong and Others v Digilandmall.com Pte Ltd

obviously almost everyone here thought it was a pricing error but went ahead and bought it, and many bought more than one to gift it away or profit from it

now all want ms compensate?

Yes, same here. I refused to respond to them about the refund because of this.

Now they want us to do the refund ourselves so they won't be fault for backing off from done deal. Some stupid sinkies will follow the instructions in the email. Ignore it, don't do them a big favor.

precisely why MS should not honour the deal. They will lose potential sale due to 99.9% of the people reselling it.

MS will lose millions just to earn 60k

resell...? why would 99.9% of the ppl resell..? i bought about 7 copies and intending to let my friends (would would never have bought M$ office at original price) use.... and not profiting for it...

even if ppl resell...
1) if they resell for too high $$$ (close to original)... nobody would buy anyway...
2) if they resell for low $$$... most of the buyers wouldn't have bought them at the original price anyway...

in the end... there won't be much of profit for resellers... and most ppl that bought from resellers still wouldn't have bought M$ office for original price and M$$$$ wouldn't have seen those sales..


regards,

Potential sales for MS stolen by reseller. reseller can hold it as long as they want till they meet their expected selling price. what's $5 to them which can earn at least $95?
