It is and after I made the order, I thought oh ****, I probably just bought the paper-trey only or some kind of printer stand because I didn't read the fine print. So I went back and reread everything and thought something doesn't sound right here but what the hell, lets see what happens...

most definitely drawing dead without any leverage whatsoever and no way in hell am I going to raise hell for a $50-100 credit, I had a free-roll but didn't hit the jackpot, c'est la vie
The reason I made the post is because I ordered this before I went out to visit my dad last week. My dad's wife's son, who works at Oracle (40-something years old) was there was well. I told them I just ordered a great printer and either got an incredible deal or they screwed up the price and will not ship it.
To my surprise they both jumped down my throat when I said I wouldn't push it if they didn't send it. They said I gotta raise hell if they don't ship it because its their mistake and I was like yeah, but **** happens, I ain't raising hell over some clerical mistake. They wouldn't let up and said I should hire an attorney and I was like really, guys?
Sure, it would be nice if I ended up getting the printer at that price and CDW chalked it up as a cost of doing business and perhaps my order alerted them to a problem they didn't know existed and saved them money in the long run but go berserk, hire an attorney, etc...nah, I'll pass.
Since they were both so adamant, I was curious to see what the consensus would be around here would be when presented with this scenario.
Thanks for everyone's thoughts
