Actually, I called them much earlier in the week about this. They told me they knew about the error and that was about it. They also told me not to press the button and I'd get my full $40.

Thanks, great deal. Asked the OM guy to look for one without PW in it and he came back and handed me a Lite-On - said it was the only one in the store without PW. Honored the $25 off coupon in store too. :D

Note for those planning to order the $2.95 Panaflos from MPJA
