all they really needed to do was redirect the main site to static html and have the people who are in basket status continue...

GOT ONE.
AND I ALSO GOT TO REMOVE THOSE USELESS GAMES.
The basket gave me the option to remove so it's not my fault.

MODUS. WALMART IN HUBER IS SETTING OUT CHAIRS ON MON...ILL BE THERE AROUND 6 AND CAMP TILL MIDNIGHT. COME JOIN THE PARTY
I finished checking out after they said they were sold out, but already had one in the cart. I better get one of the ones from the four different places I've tried to order from. Today was the Walmart link and CC after they said they were sold out. I'll probably either get none or like 5. Getting 0 would suck, but if more than one, hello ebay.

You can get through to the order page, but it lets you get the rest of the bundle, just not the 360 itself.

LeBron loves his girlfriend. There is no other woman in the world hed rather have. The problem is, Dwyanes not a woman.
Fucking ass crackers,I had the prem gold bundle in my cart off and on,till it timed out.Then it finally started working again and I got it in my cart for good and I entered my credit card stuff and then I got the message this item is sold out.
I lost it and nearly broke my piece of shit ibook keyboard.I calmed down,saw that tard bundleswere still in stock and realized wtf would I want to give CC.com my money after what I just went through,plus with their shipping the tard bundle looked ten times more tarded.

The sad thing is that CC is going to think that this was a success anyway since they sold out.

I think my Wal-Mart will have nobody there. Would be funny if there ARE campers though.
It's a Super Wal-Mart though..wouldn't it just be open anyway?

Well, it looks like it is Costco or bust to get a 360 that day. Luckily my wife has a business membership, so we can go in an hour earlier. I'll probably get there an hour early and hang out in case of a line, but I just spoke to the manager and he said he has only heard of 5 or 6 people inquiring that they have the business membership and would like to buy the 360 at 10:00 that morning.
Gamestop is lucky I don't storm into their store and demand the 800 cash I gave them for all my pre-order stuff in one shot. I'll be raising hell on Tuesday if I can't get one.
I'm one of the guys that pre-ordered in early June and got hosed by the 2nd shipment bs..
I tried the circuit city site for 2 hours, and couldn't get through. I'm actually glad I didn't have to pay the 97 dollar shipping cost

Finally bought a new PSP, but then pushed the demon onto someone else. Jesus.
This is funny.
After today, I just hope that Circuit City burns in hell. Never, ever taking my business there again except for price matching them against Fry's or something.
It's not the fact I didn't get a 360 that pisses me off so much, it's the fact that Circuit City were so unprepared. Despite the apparent problems they had before even putting the damn bundles up for purchase, they did almost nothing to fix it. They didn't completely close down the website to do maintenence; they simply let whoever they could let in, in and customers who had bundles in their shopping carts within the first fucking minute got screwed.
Way to fucking go, assholes.

I was hammering away at CC's website since about 1:45 myself, and had a bundle in my cart since I first could around 2:10, even though I couldn't complete my order until 4:30. But yeah, they handled this about as poorly as possible. Even though I supposedly got one, I'm not gonna believe it until the damn thing is plugged into the wall. I give it a less than 50% chance. I still have it in my mind that I'm gonna be waiting in line on Monday night/Tuesday morning.
