Shopping Walmart.com for some outdoor patio furniture. Came across this premium 5 pc. set (Sunbrella etc) listed for $125. Clearly underpriced - easily a $2000 setup.

Ordered, paid for, confirmed delivery. Actually received this little stool instead. Called customer service - third-party vendor, blah, blah, blah. They refunded my money and told me to keep the stool.

Do I raise a stink and expect that they deliver the product they advertised at the price they charged me? Or, since it was pretty obvious it was a mistake, let it die?

Edited to show the listing -

Did it say 5 piece or did it just show a picture and you assumed?

You're what's wrong with America. Looking for free handouts and taking advantage of the system? Shame on you...

It sounds like it was a clear mistake and they refunded your money and gave you a free stool. They aren’t just going to send you $2000 of more free shite if you “raise a stink.”

this happens all the time and nope, nobody gets the deal.

just look at the freaks when amazon mismarks something..they'll have like 1,000,000 orders within an hour then cancel all of them.

Not trying to cheat anybody. They offered - I accepted. Kinda thought that was a deal.

Here’s the listing - shows “out of stock” now.

This is why most don't deserve nice things. Being an adult means doing the right thing 24/7.

Kinda think what’s wrong with America is that no one is responsible for the crap they put on the internet...
