Amazon.com is offering a great deal on all three seasons of ‘The Office’ on DVD, plus a Dunder Mifflin lunchbag, for only $47.99. An amazing deal, but hurry, the offer is a quick one!

I also got an email from Amazon that it is not available from their sources. I think they should at least give us a coupon or something. It’s just not right!
I had several frustrating emails with customer service over their cancellation of my order. I filed a complaint with the BBB over their false advertising and bait-and-switch techniques (the CSR tried to steer me towards buying it third party at double the price).
The box just arrived from Amazon by UPS. (With a price that great, I paid for next-day shipping.) The lunchbag (more like a small cooler) and three DVDs all came shrinkwrapped together with a paper sleeve at the base with a unique bar code. So even though Amazon might have all three DVDs in stock, the package itself is the product. Sorry not everyone could get in on the deal, or were disappointed after they thought they had bought one.
I am very upset that Amazon canceled my order! What was the point of having a counter for the item if they didn’t even have it in stock! I’ve sent them an email because I want the DVD’s at the sale price even if I can’t have the lunchbag. They have other sellers on Amazon offering the set for twice the price. :(
I placed an order with about 33% of their stock remaining, but today I get the dreaded e-mail telling me it’s unavailable. It’s really shameful and irresponsible that they would tease people with a really great deal and then renege on it for whatever reason.
I’m assuming it’s the lunchbags that they’re out of, because all three seasons are still in stock on their site. But they really ought to offer the DVDs for their sale price, especially to the people who placed an order during the Lightning deal. I already told my family we were getting it, and now I have to disappoint them.
Well, I just got an email from Amazon telling me that they are sorry, but my confirmed order cannot be completed. Apparently, it is not “available from any of our sources at this time.”
I hope the rest of you who took advantage of this offer don’t get the same message.
Damn, damn, damn, damn!
I say Tanster gets a percentage of their sales.
[from tanster: thank you!]
oh wow. tanster, you build a powerful nation.
are you KIDDING me. i just won that lunchbox on ebay for $50.
but it’s sold out, so it wouldn’t matter anyway. …i keep telling myself that.
You can never have enough copies of those DVDs. I have second copies of all 3 seasons to travel with! I know, I’m pathetic.
Phew, I think I was able to get this on the closing seconds, I hope anyway, got a confirmation email and everything…
I’m new here btw, Aloha and Hello.
CUSS WORDS!!! lol
Holy smokes… ah well. I guess I have to get my Dad a card for Father’s Day.
Man, I can’t believe I missed out on this
Oh man…If only this had happened a few weeks earlier. I just bought all three seasons 2 weeks ago!!!
If I had money, I’d totally buy them again just for that lunchbag, but WOW! It’s already sold out!
They’re all gone. Congrats to those who got the deal!
I also saw this at Sam’s Club sometime last month. No idea if it’s still there or not.
Oh man! I must have spent around $65 on my 3 DVD sets. Gaah. And there was no nifty lunch bag that came with it. It’s going fast though. 87% claimed as I type.
You made my day! Thanks! Got it just for the lunchbox.
