    Nice. I've been on the hunt for a 500GB for a couple weeks now. I might just have to get that one.

    It is up to $232.9 now! Way to jump on that, Myshkin. Amazon is trying to earn that money back by jumping the price now :)

    Wow, too bad it went back up. $99 would have been a great deal. Good thing you caught it, myshkin. Hope they honor it!

    Dear Valued Customer,

    Thank you for your recent request to order through Amazon.com.
    Unfortunately, your order request will be cancelled because the Amazon.com
    offer contained an incorrect description for SKU# 348669/52796279. The
    actual product is a 320GB Elements External USB2.0. In accordance with our
    terms and conditions regarding description errors, we will not ship this
    product and you will receive full credit for the unshipped product. If by
    any chance you do receive the product in the mail, you will have to return
    the item prior to receiving credit. You may review our terms and conditions
    here: http://www.compusa.com/terms.asp#pricing .

    I think companies should have to honor these mistakes
