When asked if the company will honor items sold to customers at the mistakenly low prices, Jariwala said the company is "still working through those details."

While United Airlines recently honored some $10 tickets offered by mistake on its site, a retailer does not have to honor an error, especially if it is the result of hacking.

Hi! Welcome to SlickDeals. This guide should help you to understand what each of the separate forums are, who "lives" in each one, and how you should act when you visit them. Hopefully, after reading this thread, you'll be able to decide which of the many facets of SlickDeals appeals to you the most, and where you'd like to spend most of your time. That said, let's get started.
Hot Deals - A place to find all manner of electronics, tools, pet supplies, miniature wooden pirate ships, and (sometimes) turtles. Leave your morals and principles at the door: when you can get a $6000 HDTV for sixty-seven cents just by printing out a coupon and picking the right cashier, you'll forget about all that stuff anyway.

You are right for saying people have no reason to complain, but walmart could have and should have turned this into something else instead of cancelling orders (and this is not me being upset for not getting an 1100$ tv for 350). Now they get bad press for letting this happen and upsetting customers (justified or not), instead of a happy story about people getting cheap things.
perspective I guess

I would love them for 35 seconds if they give me a free TV.

"oh the company would have so much good publicity and goodwill if they honored the price mistake"..
But come on, this is SD.. One week later: A SDer needs to buy something.. If that same item is 1 cent cheaper elsewhere, they aren't going to remember how cool Walmart was on the price mistakes. They are going to buy it where it's the cheapest.
Not to mention, if Walmart honors this price mistake, the next price mistake will have everyone ordering 10X as much and getting even angrier when Walmart doesn't honor it again..
