    A lot of yesterdays items back on, do we think this is all that stock that went in to baskets and people then didn't buy?

    you have to wait for the countdown to go to zero and immediately click on the buy button that appears. You wont get the offer if you don't go through the black friday deals page

    Just a very quick read of a few of the posts on this thead would help.

    You have to wait until you get the button to 'buy' but you need to click it within a milisecond. basically it is fastest on the button gets the goods.

    I think what is it is that loads of people (including me) are just pressing add the minute the add too basket button appears. This way all the stock will have 'gone' before you even get to see the prices.

    What I am wondering is - when someone deletes an item from their basket does it actually get allocated to someone in the queue. I have a small feeling that the ones that are tuck out of peoples basket are just put back into the full price stock and are not put 'back' into the flash deal.

    I think it goes back into full price stock, people aren't queued long enough to benefit, a shame because the queue system could work otherwise.
