Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I'm sure most of you are bombarding this site. It's up and down more than a randy rabbit! I did manage to get it loaded at one point, and this featured in the £1 list!
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Have just seen that. Thing is, in their small print it says £1 "on all clearance items", so basically bargain basement anyway. I mean a magenta ink cartridge for a certain printer....bonus if you own that printer but were people expecting a laptop and TV for a quid? It also seems slightly bad business as the thousands of non members who hear about this via facebook and the likes, hammer the site, buy a usb cable for a pound then never return, in the meantime the regular users have to wait 6 hours to order the bits they normally want. So if you're in the market for a USB cable, a USB cable or a magenta ink cartridge (and a USB cable) get on to their sale
Dos_Box Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Arrrgggh! Typical, I got the email late last night and ignored it. Now I can't get on. I need some new in-ear headphones.
bondbill2k2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Im yet to get on, I tryed at 10:31 and since then its been down for me!
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I got on, and seriously, it's all tat. Wii controllers that are usually abot £3 are now £1. Not forgetting it's £5.99 delivery (unless you order over £50) so the minimum order is £6.99 for something that costs a pound.
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 Its very flaky - one minute it's OK, the next it's all "bleeeuuuugggghhhh". I'm not expecting many good things on there. However I may come across something that I remember I need. Also, I think posting it is a fiver? You only get free delivery over £49 quid don't you?
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 ive just updated and they have a tv stand with £50 off and a security peep hole viewer with about 70 off. other than that, still tat oh and cheapest posting is £6 roughly. thats 4 days, next day is nearly a tenner. free is >49 yeah

MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 ill be honest, this is actually stupid. put things on offer then not able to cope with demand. i just thought "ohh i might get that". when i placed in basket, 61 in stock, by the time the basket page had loaded, 35 in stock. by the time payment page had loaded, out of stock.
LosOjos Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just think of the money they're losing while nobody can get on to buy anything because people are flooding it spend £1...
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Just think of the money they're losing while nobody can get on to buy anything because people are flooding it spend £1... exactly
bondbill2k2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Previous years ebuyer have done great deals, a different deal each day like the first 100 ps3's for 60% off, those were great just stick to those sort of deals ebuyer not silly £1 offers, Im certain the idea is to bring in customers its almost marketing more then sales but its a failure as they cant take the demand and will put people off their service!
JoeBloggs Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) ive just updated and they have a tv stand with £50 off and a security peep hole viewer with about 70 off. other than that, still tat And in the user reviews a guy has put he recommends it to anyone wanting to spend £25-£30 on a TV stand. So they have obviously increased the "previous price" to make it look like a better deal. KWorld PlusTV S-100 SE DVB Satellite PCI TV Card With Remote - this seemed decent but sold out straight away.

MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 its amazing how some of the "deals" aren't reduced to £1 but are full price. like this corker of a deal Hayes ACCURA V.92 56k PC Card Modem £37. Imma get me one o them high speed internets y'all talkin about
X-13 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Arrrgggh! Typical, I got the email late last night and ignored it. Now I can't get on. I need some new in-ear headphones. Skull Candy Ink'd. Not £1, but cheap and decent. About £6.99 in HMV
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 (edited) ive just updated and they have a tv stand with £50 off and a security peep hole viewer with about 70 off. Got me one of those peep hole viewer bad boys! Free postage too as it "was" over £50. Edited November 28, 2011 by Rawns
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 No I ain't. Out of stock e-mail so had to cancel the order.
LosOjos Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Skull Candy Ink'd. Not £1, but cheap and decent. About £6.99 in HMV Going to have to disagree with you there, worst earphones I've ever paid for. At £10, these are absolutely fantastic: Sennheiser CX300 II Precision Headphones (Black) | eBay
HaleStorm Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 skullcandy DUB are good earphones.....not as good as the sennheisers for the money tho
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 No I ain't. Out of stock e-mail so had to cancel the order. I think you missed off [/smug] 1
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 They just had this up: http://www.ebuyer.com/253247-sapphire-pure-black-x58-socket-1366-gb-lan-8-channel-audio-atx-52034-00-40r - £122 down to a quid.
MK-2 Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 its a joke now. i just saw something on the sale i thought might make a good xmas pressie for someone. 75 in stock. i clicked add to basket, nothing. page just reloaded. done that 5 times, then going back to the page and oh look its out of stock.
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 Yea, there were 2 mobo's in stock and the same thing happened there. They would have been a steal had I got one! Wait for the 2pm refresh now I guess...
SteseD Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 I can't get it to show me anything that is on clearance... am i doing something wrong?
Rawns Posted November 28, 2011 Author Posted November 28, 2011 I can't get it to show me anything that is on clearance... am i doing something wrong? Nope, just their website severely overloaded with people looking for a bargain. Just retry every 10/15 minutes and it may load at some point.
