Yeah I kept refreshing the screen and somewhere around 8:59:30ish the add the cart came on. I think it might have been the first time I was lucky enough to get one on sale.

Little_b Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Placed my order at 9:02 (est) but have to keep refreshing the page now to see what is selling out. Wish they would post how many of each item they had originally to see just how lucky I am to get what I wanted. Got a Pixcon16 which was the first thing to sell out.

Time I finally got on the item I wanted was sold out. 1 day later I was able to get it. I actually not looking at Sale this year. JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapkirk Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 (edited) Yes, very surprised no AC controllers sold out yet, last year only took 5 minutes for controllers to start to disappear, this year the Pixon and ELL items and now Vampire plugs.

ovsims Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Well everything went as planned (ALMOST). placed order at 9:00 but the DW walked in as I was speed clicking and said it looked like I was up to something and she saw the order confirmation total as I clicked send order. she was not happy and said I need help. Funny thing is I didn't even see the page or the total I was just going through the motions I had been practicing for the last 3 days. I may go back in for more after I pay the light bill. oh well guess I better figure out how to use this stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
