Shaun,
Contact them and explain what happened. Although this will not help you, it can (hopefully) assist those after you that may find themselves in the same predicament.
About ten days ago my wife directed me to a website (Dick's Sporting Goods) that was having a really nice July 4th sale on kayaks (we have been talking about getting kayaks for a couple of years but have never pulled the plug). I looked at their offerings and found an ideal fishing kayak for myself. This past Thursday, my wife said to me, “let’s get those kayaks”. I went back to the business’s webpage and the kayak was no longer on sale??? I contacted them via email and inquired about their July 4th sale and stated that their advertised price appeared to no longer be valid which was very concerning as July 4th has not yet even arrived. In my message, I offered to buy the kayak at their earlier advertised price. A short while later I received a reply and they apologized but, unfortunately, pointed out that they could not sell the kayak for the earlier price because it was already discounted BUT please take this discount code and apply it to your order. I plugged the discount code into the online ordering system and ACTUALLY was able to get the kayak for LESS money than it was originally advertised on the July 4th sale. This worked out extremely well for all parties because we purchased two kayaks and paddles with this discount code and Dick's Sporting Goods sold two kayaks and paddles. These items were picked up yesterday.
Let Amazon know what happened – customer service is what drives this industry!
