    Okay, now I physically cannot believe this.

    I know for absolute certain I clicked within 5 MILLISECONDS of the deal going up, and got into the queue for the Beatles boxset before being chucked out of the queue a minute later. Amazon really are cocking up with this big time.
    Or so it seems, anyway.

    I think it's basically a case of pot luck. Good, ethernet-cabled internet connection doesn't seem to help either!

    No, the others were just quicker

    Maybe someone should do a FAQ as a cut and paste so we can all bookmark it and just post it as appropriate? I've ntoiced that a lot of the standard questions just don't get answered anymore as we've all said it oo many times.

    or start a new thread with it as the first post?

    you clicked along with thousands of other people, think it's more of a lottery, would be impossible to pick the quickest people

    I also didn't get a wii. BOO HOO. I did click straight away though! My body seemed to go into a state of shock when I realised what it was I'd clicked, I really though I was gonna get it.:rotfl:

    Well done those who did wiin though - what a bargain!

    with the wii i clicked and it said i had claimed it but i clicked on basket and it didnt do anything, clicked the claimed bit again had it in my basket but as i saw it i had clicked the reload button as thought it had jammed, couldnt believe i missed out on it because my eyes didnt see the 1 in the basket! was soo cross with myself last night!

    That is so frustrating! :mad: I hope you have some good luck today. Maybe there will be another wii this week? They have put some of the things on from yesterday again. I think Amazon are trying to drive us all insane. I have never spent so much time on the laptop!!!My life has been taken over....
