    I thank you for your post.

    Maybe you should put that in your sig if you are fed up of seeing people ask questions. Yes it is a long thread hence the reason, rightly or wrongly people will not read through pages and pages of people talking small talk to find it.

    I just though it was a little out of order you moaning about it rather than answering the question of someone who could have done with a hand. very HUKD.

    I don't mean to be pedantic but this is MSE, hukd is elsewhere :D

    Geez ok.

    Moving on - one of those 11am deals was up as the pressure washer earlier so perhaps it's still that.
  • It's definitely not 'first to click'. I tried for the girl's watch and was put in queue. Was a bit surprised as didn't think this would go immediately went live unless they only had a few. Opened another window, clicked and got it straight away. My first click updated later and I now have the watch in 2 different baskets (I'm assuming I can only purchase 1 of them as they make good birthday presents.). Shame this didn't happen on the wii - (I don't mean that I wanted 2 - just that I couldn't get it at all).

    (Had tried having more than 1 window open in advance for other items and haven't been lucky). Only item got was the SD card and only had 1 window open for that.
  • Ok, what's the secret to getting these items then. I've tried for about 10 things now and got naff all!

    I personally thought the toshiba laptop was bad value..
    I'm sure there are better things out there for £300!!

    (but being early and too brain dead to research and back myself up.. I'll just put "thought" :o)

    Can you find one for me at £300, it is such a minefield out there with Laptops but this one is approx £100 dearer elsewhere than what Amazon sold it for on the deal. :)
    Comping from May 2012 :D

    Thank you to all that post & contribute, I think you are wonderful, I could not achieve without your help :)

    So they've just taken things that we have already seen and changed them to mystery ones?

    To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research ;)

    No secret, all about supply and demand. Thousands clicking at the same time (probably 10s of thousands at some points) and only a relatively small number of each item available.
