Basically they loaded the shotgun and fired both barrels into their foot.  They haven't got anyone but themselves to blame for the backlash. 
Poking around to see if there's any $3-$4 stuff I can find I want to get some credits, but no luck so far.  |
Amazon has earned much good will over the years for great Customer service, so I don't think this sale hurts them long term. But what a blunder and missed opportunity. I checked through sale items several times for anything of interest and most of it was junk, properly described by some as a "garage sale". Still, I imagine they made lots of money and cleaned lots of stuff out of their "garage". :-)
