You scored. Amazon did a pricing error but they do normally honor the pricing. I got a some parts for one of my old vehicles like that from Amazon once, seems they accidentally reversed the $$ savings with the for sale price. They had the pricing corrected within a couple hours after I placed my order but they honored the price

I just looked on Amazon and the readylift 69-2301 was $899.95 (BUT it did have free shipping ).

Lol, I’ll only consider it lucky if they ship out! At the time it did have it listed “1 at this price” kinda thing. Amazon has some crazy algorithms when it comes to setting pricing sometimes. So I really do hope I scored.

Ah, yes sometimes they have different prices for 1 item because the cheaper ones are refurbished, returned items, or items that were returned and might have a bit of wear on them... Do you remember seeing anything like that?

I've caught them with their pants down a few times. In fact I got a Lund Genesis Tonneau for my truck for $150 below where everyone else lists it in May. Another time I got an alternator for my Mercedes $80 less than listed elsewhere. Both instances the price adjusted not long after I made my buy. There was never a quibble about it either.

Default Delivery day!



Lo and behold...it got delivered. I'm a little skeptical it was a re-taped box inside an amazing box. Anyone else ordered the RL SST kit with no instructions no paperwork...ripped partial logo and tiny sku on bottom:
