Well this is a new and amazing Amazon fuckup, I actually got the button for the TV but now it's frozen at Checking Deal. Fuck you, Amazon.

And yep, it went to Waitlist Full. Even successfully clicking the bullshit button I still couldn't get it.

Not bad. My local used games place had 25% off all SNES games, but it was cleaned out by the time I got there. I didn't do any camping out or anything.
 
Keeps changing from 'you are on the waitlist' to 'waitlist is full' and back.

Why is it playing with me like this?!

Nah that's not a new thing, happened all the time last year.
 
I'm pretty much convinced that people are using scripts to get in on those deals. Someone said it was the case yesterday, and all of the instant sellouts since then have pretty much confirmed it for me.

Fucking boo-urns that people are macroing this shit. Needs a CAPTCHA or something.
 
so how exactly do we click on the amazon deal when the timer hits zero? cuz i tried getting the tv but as soon as it reached zero i couldn't click on it so i ended up refreshing the page and i had to scroll through sections of deals before i found the tv again and by then it was already on waitlist =/

You could have refreshed perfectly and you would not have gotten it.
 
I'm on the waitlist for the hersheys pot of gold. #203 and I clicked the moment it was available.

It's not even that good of a deal. wtf people.

Okay, there is a lot of trolling going on with the amazon lighting deals. I was #203 on the waitlist and still got in on the deal.

Are people so bored that they try for every deal just because they can?
 
part of the club

i7 8gb, I'll look for a ssd now. but I think I'm done for the year

How does this waitlist thing work? I just joined one for a 9.99 heatsink and they said they'd notify me when the deal became available.

Do they email you? How long does it usually take?

Also, would this thing even be good if I want to build a higher-end PC? I have no idea what I'm doing.
 
I was just at mine and they tried some shit saying the points in the picture look different. I argued that it says 1600 and wouldn't drop it and they gave it to me lulz.
Damn you guys. I just went out and bought 20 myself. Atleast these can be used for the Windows 8 store as well. Not sure what I would spend this all on. Good deal tho.
 
the jack in the box by my house is giving away a free coffee all day today. don't know if its a nationwide thing.
 
Any opinions on this Dell XPS X8500-4726BK Desktop?

Apparently it'll be a lightning deal later and I need a new desktop to replace the one I got from Circuit City on a Black Friday some years ago. Any guesses on what the price might be during the lightning deal?

I ended up buying it, if this turns out to be a bad computer I blame everyone who didn't tell me so.

SO EVERYONE ON EARTH EXCEPT FOR THOSE THREE AMAZON ONE STAR REVIEWS I IGNORED.
