They cancelled it automatically about 30 minutes after my purchase.

Two plus hours later, the 83871 miles is still showing with the link the OP posted. The longer they leave it up, I have to think it will be more difficult to argue it was an error.

I can understand folks going for it and hoping they'll honor it out of goodwill, but comments like these are just LOL.

I checked other products from verizon in the shopping portal and the same amount of miles are offered . If you go into product details it says 13 miles.

search for Motorola Xoom.

Maybe they ran out of stock?

Now the bloggers picked it up...

My order said "Your order has been received. Pre-orders will ship when the item becomes available."

But now it is cancelled for some reason. Will wait and see what happens to the rest of you, then I will call that number tomorrow.

Just signed up for AA Shopping

I've never used the AA Shopping Mall, so I just signed up. First page says:
After your initial registration, you can add additional credit and debit cards to participate. Please allow 48 to 72 hours in order for your card to become Active. Once your card is in Active status it is eligible to earn miles.
If this means 48+ hours for my first card to become Active, then I can earn miles, this doesn't look good for me.

Any thoughts?

Let's just say for example that it's still showing 83871 miles tomorrow; can they really argue that it's a mistake and they shouldn't have to honor it? Now the 83871 is showing up on the AA Shoping page, so any potential error may actually be on AA's part.

My point was that if a potential error exists for a few minutes then it would be easier to argue that it was one instead of the case where it is there for several hours or longer.

Well, I went in for ONE. Figured I got 100K MR points this AM with the add an authorzed user so maybe I'll get this too. I printed off everything so I have the screen shots and all the appropriate info. If it doesnt work out I put it on AMEX Plat for the protection and will just return it.

If this works out I have had quite the productive day, mileage wise that is!
