Hey guys - Just a quick PSA for when these orders likely get xcled - When you call to complain, whine, threaten to never shop at HD again, yell at or say how you'll sue them, blablabla, remember that the person you're speaking to didn't cancel or decide to do so to your order. They will stick to the script. Take the 20% off your next order, free ship or whatever consolation offer they give and move on.
They aren't getting paid enough to care about your interpretation of a law or that you will never shop there again and how much you spend there. Trust this.
Should go without saying, but some of the posts here are pretty concerning...

That's normal, always shows that when an item sells out. Doesn't mean it won't ship. (Although it might not).
Not surprising at all. I live in a college town and there is always a bunch of random "mattress guys" who have a weird selection of mattresses that just open up a shop in a building for a month and move on. No business name or anything. Appt only type of thing. Sure they are just resellers.
You can buy a king sized mattress for $500 from a legitimate store and with a warranty and a return policy. You *might* be able to double your money selling 50 of these, but it won't be "easy" as someone suggested. Lol.
"Easy profit?" You gamble $10000 on a bunch of mattresses that you *might* be able to sell out of the back of a uhaul? Haha. I can't imagine people lining up to buy those.
I'd like to see proof anyone actually "bought" 50 mattresses.
The likelihood of someone ordering 50 is high, the chance of them receiving 50 is minute. I'm sure quite a few mattress stores got in on the frenzy.
so are you just out here trying to be stupid or does it just come naturally? yes, if they found their mistake, they would zero out the inventory instead of directly correcting the price. of course
Aren't you the one that claimed someone got fired for costing HD a million dollars? And you're calling ME stupid?! Bwahaha!!
Home Depot has 2,300 locations. So you're suggesting they don't sell ~4 mattresses per location per year?
(Yes, you said "store", but nobody is suggesting that any one store/location sold 10,000 for this deal)
HD doesn't sell mattresses in-store, so the number of locations is irrelevant.
They have one website. I doubt (speculate) most people are even aware HD sells mattresses on their website. Lol.
Again, pure speculation. You have zero proof a single person spent $10000 buying 50 of these. Lol. That's all I'm saying.
I never said I have any proof other than a guy in this thread bragging about it. The fact that if this was for sure legit I would have bought at least 50 and I'd be cleaning out my garage right now. You want me to hack the HD server? The simple fact is $40k profit if you take your time or $15k in one day if you fire sale them.

It is likely someone is getting fired for this and it the orders are honored I think that person should be referred to as Mattress Jesus. Him or her got fired so that we could be cumfy.
I can guarantee that there will be Second or even Third Comings on these beds If Mattress Jesus comes through for us. Let us hope and pray; may Pasta and Sauce[spaghettimonster.org] be upon you...

Well, even if you weren't sure it was legit, why didn't you buy 50? What do you have to lose except $10000 if it was legit and now you own 50 mattress that you HAD TO sell. If it wasn't legit, you wouldn't even have been charged. It's "easy" to say you would have done something when it's no longer possible to do that thing. Lol.
Point is, it isn't "easy" to sell "discount" mattresses. What are you going to sell them for? $400? Why would someone buy a "white van" $400 mattress from you when they can buy a $500 mattress with a warranty and return policy from a legit store?
