Did one of you guys get the last Piranha blu? I was at the final stage of checkout earlier and it went out of stock.

Jaymole

I'm just happy with the Free shipping code,(now that I am over the disappointment of the under $3 titles), so if no better deals come along, I'm a satisfied customer.

Jaymole

Not me...I was hoping that title would be around if another better code came later in the day.

nick1091

Might've been me. I ordered it about 15 minutes after the sale went live.

John Galt

weak

dino88

It was you, bastard. j/k Nice grab.


I figured even if a 20% code came around that free shipping was still a better deal...and I assumed it wouldn't last.

ericmylad

deal #2! From 11:00am cst - 1:00pm cst get 30% off on qualifying used books & used cds! Use promo code: Bestoftimes.

*yawn* See you at 1pm.

Kent2000

Yes! 2-hour nap break!

nick1091

Yeah I thought the same thing you did. Even if the sale eventually got up to 30% off I'd only save like 50 cents, and would've likely been long gone by then.

dino88

More like 3 hours if they're doing an hour in between deals.

I was going to get a few books, but none of them qualified for the discount. If you can find any books you want (and they qualify), remember that standard shipping is free for books, so it's 30% + free shipping.

Gohastings is posting on CAG, saying they can't sell a dvd for $1 and spend $2 to ship. Can't wait for the fireworks.

kenbenobi

Well, if Hastings would learn how to combine DVD's in one envelope instead of mailing 30 separate envelopes, they wouldn't have that problem...

starman9000

They have started doing that, but of course it depends on one store having multiple titles in stock.

John Galt

Why? Nothing good can come out of trying to defend yourself on that board.

JAYARE

if we get a 30% off used blus i will be happy since i wasnt going to buy some of the $10+ titles with free shipping.

John Galt

They'll have their box sets wiped out if they do that. Here's hoping though, I've got my eye on a couple.

nycdude

30% off will not offset the shipping cost for lower price titles by much. Great call on the pricier ones.

joe_b

After all the multiple free shipping promos in the last 6 months, they're just now figuring this out?

They need to hire a programmer who can figure out how to disable free shipping on titles under $3 without removing half of their inventory from the site in the process.

Kent2000

"Our next deal will begin at 2:00pm CST!"

Kory

I thought these morons said 2 hours apart.

John Galt

"Alternating 2 hour sales" is what was in the original post yesterday. I guess technically, that's what they're doing.

Kent2000

So I guess this means the final big deal (as in, "What's the big deal?") will be at 8:00pm instead of 4:00pm as we originally assumed? Gee, I just hope it's worth staying sober all day for!

Jaymole

So it looks like the sale will end at 10:00pm CST

Kory

Oh good lord.

JAYARE

you wallet will probably open up a little easier if you dont stay sober
