I'm not seeing the $167 price. I'm seeing $199 at best (which is their standard sale price). Is there a trick to make this work?

Looks like they fixed the pricing.

All are now $199 and I was told they will not honor the $167 price. Acer at Gov Connection for $243 :)

this is there response after asking about the code and price difference.

IBM knows of the error and refuses to honor the price. If they do not correct the error isn't that bait and switch ?

@greggroeneveld: No. Bait & switch is intentional deception. It was a mistake and hence neither intentional or deceptive. It would be nice if they honored it but it's there prerogative to do so and deal with the consequences.

@first2summit: Exactly. I presume they get to claim innocent mistake so long as they do not leave it up and take advantage of the traffic beyond some reasonable time to correct. At some point, after they know of the error, don't they have to correct it ?

@greggroeneveld: I'm confused. Lenovo (not IBM) did fix it after they found the error. It's showing $199 on their site now.
