Craftsman 16 gal. Wet-Dry Vac, 6 Peak hp with Blower Port
Sears item# 00917768000 Mfr. model# 17768

This has got to be a pricing mistake.

I already have a Craftsman ShopVac and for less than the price of 2 filters you get a new ShopVac, accessories, and a spare filter. Great Deal!

Interesting. They must have caught on. Doubt you can get a raincheck without a printout of the advertised page.

My question now is - knowing the track record of Sears' customer service, those that did purchase them, are they going to honor it?

They realized it's a mistake and stopped it before they lost more money. Pretty normal response if you ask me...

An email I just received:

Oh well, it was worth a shot. What BS though, there was no problem with my card. It even posted to my account.
