    Default Ridiculously cheap Giacomel at Elderly....

    OK so this is the most outrageous mis-pricing I've ever seen!

    I tried clicking the Buy button and the actual price came up on the order form ($12,500 btw). Dang! I would have gladly paid the shipping for items under $89. (I notified them BTW).

    Hey folks. Thanks for catching this (uh, I guess it was obvious though). We do not know what happened, but have fixed the price. Our photos disappeared from it too - working on that and they should be back soon.

    As of now we don't even know how this occurred, but it's nice to know y'all are looking!

    Yes, your website has done my saving account a disservice on several occasions!

    Dang, I missed my chance! That's what I get for not checking the website every day. Actually, I'm way too familiar with dropping some cash at Elderly--have an order on the way right now.
