Warning that the seller already cancelled one of my orders for 2x Refurbished DL580 Gen 10 by saying they "didn't have stock." I'd prefer "we made a pricing mistake and were accidentally selling this without a big markup, so we're canceling your order."

They don't seem to be honest when it comes to their mistakes, so I wouldn't expect them to honor this auction, either; but, may as well try.

Ummm... yeah, that's bait-and-switch level false advertising. How do you refurbish a bracket?

What did they say when you said some folks may not be happy?

They said their content listing system somehow generated the listing title, and they should work on it.
Not a very satisfactory answer.
They did point me to a listing of theirs for a new one for $260 on ebay, which wasn't very helpful for me.

So are they going to ship these out without double-checking with customers about what they now know was definitely a mistake and then deal with returns and possibly negative feedback?

They didn't say explicitly, but that was the impression I got.
When I emailed them asking for a full height adapter, this was their reply:

Hi,
As irony would have it you are inquiring on the listing for just the LPB (Low Profile Bracket)
We have 3+ Factory sealed units which come with both full height and half height brackets
817753-B21 NEW SEALED HPE Ethernet 10/25Gb 2-port 640SFP28 Adapter 4514953893610 | eBay

Thanks

Oh well, canceling my order.
Edit:
Yep, it was just the bracket. Got my order canceled and ask them if they could update the description since it's very confusing.

They reached out to ask if I needed the bracket or the card, which is good at least. Though they said "the listing is for the bracket" instead of admitting their error that the listing said it was for the adapter. Looks like I'll be having my orders cancelled as well.

Sure looks like there was sudden urge for those brackets :oops:
The high profile brackets are still sold out and there's only 10 left of the low profile.
There's gonna be a lot of unsatisfied customers.
