Default Fundmarks's I fail at ordering from monoprice sale!

Well it has happened again! I fail at using Monoprice. Apparently when I hit cancel on an order it didn't cancel and because of Monoprice's excellent DHL shipping services everything will be here today or tomorrow. Before I start arguing with them how to refund my shipping costs I thought I would see if anyone wants the stuff. The prices will be slightly more as they have shipping built into them.

Also everyone please make blackarcher101 feel terrible since it is his fault this has happened!

I have 2 10 ft Apple 30 pin cables - 12 dollars each (yes this is more than it says but I have included shipping)
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

1 Apple 30 pin Car charger - $10
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

1 6 ft apple Lightning Cable - $17 - CONDITIONALLY SOLD - Bean
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

2 1-Gang recessed Wall Plate in white $6 each
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

2 Smooth motion TV Wall Mounts for TV's 26-47" $105 Each
http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

I should be able to move on some of the prices if you are buying multiple items. I am just trying to get my money back

How expensive was shipping, if you're asking $105 each for the tv wall mounts that cost you less than $55 each?

Shipping was 87 dollars for the total order. I have just priced each item as it costs with shipping individually. If you were to purchase on its own. Like I said send I am open to offers!

This is the method I used to price all the items. Again it can be flexible if there is interest! If there isn't I am waiting to hear from Monoprice on what we do to correct this error.

I have thought about doing it on ebay.

There is a place in the NE that gets their wallmounts and cables from Monoprice and resells them. I forget what it is called though...

Wow choose the DHL monoprice shipping option it is crazy fast everything arrived. I declined the shipment of the incorrect order as per monoprice instruction. I will know friday if I will get a refund or if I will have the surplus supply.

Looks like monoprice is refunding the order. Very easy to deal with!

Not to derail (but I will). Monoprice appears to sell a bunch of stuff on Amazon now. So shipping should be cheaper. They dont have their whole catalog yet - but a fair amount of stuff is on there.

I noticed the mount I was ordering had more expensive shipping on amazon then with Monoprice. Not sure if that is with everything

I ordered some rear speaker stands off Amazon that were Monoprice manufactured for $5 less than the Monoprice listing + free shipping on Prime.

Was pretty awesome.

Damn wish I knew about mp on amazon, just placed first half of a massive order.. Planning on tossing all hardware under the stairs for bedroom tv/media, as well as upstairs and downstairs media rooms.. Unreal how much you can save on mounts and cables though. Special place in hell for monster cables
