This was posted on Slickdeals....it's more than likely a pricing error, but might as well order one and see if they honor it!

The link works again and they just raised it to 10x the price (at $85). Might want to check that e-mail to see if Overstock didn't automatically try to charge the full price.

I heard this is because Overstock is a shitty site to begin with. Oh well, just means more cheap shit for us.

Dear Valued Customer,

You recently placed an order for Neon Genesis Anime Box Set at $6.63. We regret to inform you that due to a pricing error by the manufacturer we are unable to fulfill your order at the above price. The MSRP of the item is $85.00. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. Overstock.com has added a $5 in-store credit (per order) to your account due to this error.

We can certainly understand how frustrating this may be and we apologize that we were unable to fulfill your order.

Thank you for your understanding. We value your business.

Sincerely,

Ralph Mondeaux
Vice President, BMVG

Reminds me of last week when 400 gigabye hard drives were listed on another site for $23. Yeah, those orders didn't go out either.

Free way of getting in-store credit, though I doubt we'd buy anything from their shitty store.
