Amazon Dual Compartment Petri Dish Price Mistake?

825 100x15mm dishes for $25. Just grabbed 2 cases and should be in tomorrow.
Description says PP dish but specs show polyethylene, so no PC'ing.
This should last me for ever...and this is after buying dozens of PP5 petris and no pour containers. But I'll still need them for growing out so no loss.

EDIT2: DEAD, Price has been fixed. Hope those that got orders in get them fulfilled.

They're not polypropylene and they're not polyethylene. They are polystyrene which still means they are disposable. FYI. When in doubt, look up the manufacturer's information directly.

They must've figures out their mistake because it said $145 for me. Amazon usually honors those kinds of flukes.

I'm still working on my last 500pk, but if I had the extra money I would have bough a few of these at $25 lucky for yall. Considering they sold camera lenses that were several thousand dollars for a fraction of the price last year I would expect them to just eat the price difference. It's not like Bezos can't afford it.

This happened to me a few times once on petri dishes actually. They never show usually and you'll get a credit

If they cancel, I'll understand. I love a deal, but not at the cost of getting someone in trouble for a mistake. But I won't turn it down if they fulfill it!

Nice! I'm jealous, but I really don't need another box of 500.

Nice! My prime delivery date was the same as my no rush, "amazon day" delivery date (Monday) so I chose the latter to get the $1 credit, plus I still have ~40 petris until then. I kinda regret doing that at this point because my order is on the backburner as far as waiting to ship. I think they may cancel mine before shipping, but I am a little more hopeful after hearing yours shipped.

so how do you utilize duel compartment plates? treat them as 2 plates? and make the transfers onto the same plate?

the main thing I plan on using them for is first transfers from MS so i'm not wasting two plates when I'm just letting something grow out a couple days before transferring, but still keeps the transfers separate in case something nasty hitches a ride, or for transfers from something contaminated, you can let the mycelium grow up and over the divider away from something bacterial that can't climb, and then transfer that growth from the clean side to a new plate. mostly I'll just treat them like regular petris you can have two separated cultures in and use the regular petris when I'm growing out something to toss on grains
mine shipped today, so I guess I have about 825 chances to find other uses!!
thanks for the heads up on these JAT

No problem. Just got my first shipment from NC, other is coming from Jersey. I really didn't think about how much space 1650 petris would take up, lol. Good thing I have two big closets my wife hasn't cluttered.
One thing is that these bags aren't sealed air tight like my normal 20packs. They're perfed at the top. Hope this doesn't lead to contams. Had a few broken and a few bags that were cut though. I'll still test the cut bags to see if they contam when it's time to pour more.
