    i am so glad im not even remotely interested in either of those cd's, id be really PO'd to find they're sold out before you really have a chance to click add to basket.

    i thought there was going to be sales on pretty much everything, not just a select few things, there doesnt seem to be that much at all. its not like a proper american black friday sale really if you ask me. only thing i actually want is the steig larson boxset. really disappointed in the choices, so few.
  • Just think how many people across the country were sat waiting at 9am on the dot waiting to add the CDs to their basket - given they were only £1 I'm not surprised in the slightest that they went within seconds.... why is it a farce/con etc??

    I had them in my tabs and still didn't get one :( clicked checkout at +5 secs and they were all gone
    My light may be on, but that doesn't always mean I am looking at the PC - I am far more likely to be cuddling or feeding Tianna atm, so please don't think I am ignoring you if I don't reply quickly :)

    Same here, clicked as soon as it came up - told immediately sold out for Take That

    Susan Boyle - same, clicked as soon as icon came up, in a queue then sold out after a few mins queuing

    DKNY Gold - claimed then showed full price £55 in basket with no way of getting price to come down through checkout process

  • Got a SUBO CD, the Take That one sold out.

    However it is a strange checkout procedure, comes up as full price, however in the final stage it has the difference in a promo/gift voucher code.
  • That was ridiculous!!! what was there.....only one for sale at a pound!!

    Hi. Tried for both CD's got Susan Boyle would have prefered the TT, comes up at full price and then a discount on the very last pages after selecting delivery options.Good Luck everyone.
