        How hard is it to tell their website coders a few days before the sale to implement something like this:

        If orders => stock; then stop taking orders.

        Just a few lines of code could have done the trick. Obviously they just decided hey lets do a clearance without checking stock levels and sorting the online ordering system.

        • +2

          Problem is they were selling stock on-line from all their stores.

          When on-line orders were made they would have had stock somewhere, only to be cleaned out by walk-in customers before the the on-line orders could be allocated and stock removed from shelves.

    paraphrased 'history shows again and again , how greed shows up the folly of man , godzilla'

    shitguys - same story different day, just like pondscum.

  • I emailed TGG websales team got this response:

    "Thank you for enquiring about your web order.

    We are currently reviewing all gaming orders placed yesterday. We received an overwhelming number of orders and will be in contact with you today either by phone or email."

  • +3

    I had a chat with someone today and they said they are working through the orders and figuring out stock and what not. He said they are working with a first in and first out model and there were orders where people ordered 50 of the same game. They are going to review all invoices and stock and figure out what to do by the end of this week and will contact customers via email.

    There is no point calling them or emailing them - just sit tight and see what happens.

    • yeah, true - it's about $20, $50 or $100 spent on games.
      It's not much money really to worry about, if it turns up great, otherwise we get a refund.

      Hopefully TGG can learn from this and have a better stock system for online orders.
      (Which is probably hard, as they rely on stores for stock and it may sell in the mean time at a shop etc.)

      • It's less work selling to 1 Broden than 50 other customers. Just saying, is all.
        Edit: oops meant to reply to previous comment

        • +1

          But it also causes 50 very unhappy customers, and that is not good for their rep. If they're smart they'll want to please the most amount of people.

        • +1

          If they were smart, they would have not let this clearance become out of hands to this degree.

        • -4

          be careful the shitguys will neg you off this page

        • Meanwhile, Broden Enterprises has probably cut a deal with TGG to buy all stock in 1 transaction.

    • +1

      50 of the same game????? what the……..

      • +3

        Brodens, brodens everywhere…

        • -3

          yeah working for shitguys………

        • If someone is really ordering 50 of the same game thats alot of money tied up in it. Not sure if its really worth the risk cause game price fall very quick too.

        • Depending on the title and where they live, almost any wii/wii u game = guarenteed profit

        • oh the brodens amongst us

        • Brodens…illuminatis of OzB.

        • +3

          Please, don't stereotype Ozb as Broden's and us, because as much as I dont want to be a Broden I also don't want to think myself similar to you.

  • Still waiting on confirmation on mine too! I ordered 5 ps3 games and 2 vita games with separate orders.

  • Got confirmation on 1 order (Black Ops 2) I made 2 orders. The one I did first hasn't come back yet. I was my guitar hero@!!!

  • +5

    I ordered 3 (different) PS3 games. Received email saying order was allocated to Auburn store. Just received Paypal refund, no explanation, nothing.

    TGG (Auburn) = fail

    • Darn, my orders were allocated to auburn as well.

    • +8

      Can't believe it has taken this long for someone to finally neg the deal.

      • just waiting to see what happens, then we neg neg neg

  • +4

    Got a call for full refund.

    As I had three separate orders I have been given three $40 gift cards as compensation.

    • Whaaa? Really? Did you ask for it or was it offered?

      • Was offered, I was very understanding and told them it was OK they couldn't supply my order.

        Now i have $120 credit for my next TV :)

        • how much did you order?

          I've order $111 worth and got a $40 voucher which will probably expire in a week.

        • 1st order: 4
          2nd order: 3
          3rd order 7

          No multiples of any game.

        • When did you order?

        • Two orders before 6AM AEST and one just after 10:15AM AEST.

    • +2

      Wow you are exceptionally lucky.

      I got a call for a refund for my order of 12 games (all different), they did not send me one and i ordered quite early (8am DST). No offer of gift card for me :(

    • Holy crap.

      I'd be happy with just 1 $40 giftcard.

  • +3

    I've loved the community so far and thought its finally time to join. Thanks OP for the post btw.

    I received a call from TGG customer service centre about 10 minutes ago. It sounds like anyone who hasn't had confirmation yet will miss out, he said all games (don't know whether it was relating to my order or every game available) had been pooled and sent out. My allocated store was Moorabbin for both orders.

    The excuse was that they oversold the stock and to apologise they are going to refund my paypal account by the end of next week and send out a $40 gift voucher which can apparently be used online. Can anyone confirm whether these vouchers can be used online and what their expiry is?

    • They generally issue gift cards with 12m expiry. i don't see why it would change for this.

      • Thanks, might put it towards a TV or something during their next sale (if they can be used online, nearest store is 160km away).

    • When did you order?

      • Why do you keep asking the same question when an answer has already been provided?

        • +1

          Because they are two different people

      • Ordered at 10 AM on Tuesday - About 4 hours after the deal was posted. It seems like the cut off point was orders placed some time before 10 if they are doing first come first served. Hope your order goes through.

        • Don't be so sure, my orders at 8am didnt get through. If they are doing a first come first serve that is.

  • Just received Luigi Wii U, RE:R and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. I'm really satisfied with TGG service! :)

    • Did you get a delivery/shipping notice?

      • nope.

        • So basically you got the allocation email and then suddenly you received the games?

        • +1

          I put in two orders which received allocations emails. My first order received a dispatch notice but my second did not. The second order contained the games I just mentioned.

  • Master, what time did you order mate?

    • 20mins after bargain went up.

  • I placed 3 orders worth $140 odd and havent received any calls or offer. All allocated at Belmont WA

  • Just received 2 out of 4 games from Caringbah store, NSW. Remaining 2 games are processed by Robina and Helensvale store at Gold Coast. I live in Brisbane.

    • I'm waiting on Robina here for 6 different games (2 orders), in Brisbane also.

      • Also waiting for Robina. Sounds like a lot of people have been allocated Robina. Don't like our chances :P

        • Just received the item allocated to Helensvale store, still waiting for Robina!

  • Ordered at around 7.40 on the first day. 24 Games (all different) and at 7.50 got the confirmation and since then haven't heard anything, no store allocated.
    Not so sure about the first in first out model. We shall see.
    I do have to admit that I will be slightly pxxxxx off if I don't even get a single game just because my order was quite big. Considering that some guys here on the forum have already received there games even though ordering after me.

  • I wouldn't mind the gift vouchers, made 2 orders so that would be 80 bucks off a 3DS XL :D

    • I think the vouchers cannot be combined for one transaction.

      • That kinda sucks then lol
        I'll contact them if that's the case and see what they can do. Quite odd that I am unable to combine them though.

  • I hope you get some mate… maybe the fact you haven't heard anything is good. I ordered an hour after you so not holding my breath lol :/

  • Just got my order (Luigi U, Zombie-U and Pokemon Black 2) so it seems I was one of the lucky ones.

    • What time did you order and which store were you allocated?

      • Ordered at around 7AM AEDST, I chose delivery and it was processed by Prospect (NSW), I live in Sydney.

  • +2

    Did you get a shipping confirmation? Wondering if it's possible they may be sending some out without sending shipping confirmations… of course, wishful thinking lol

    • +2

      Please remember to click the reply button, to avoid confusion in this big thread :)

  • Just got off the phone and they said they are reviewing the orders, contacting those with no order dispatched at the end of the week. They may have the stock and if not, definitely a refund and maybe a giftcard

    They MAY get more stock in!

    • Is that you hoping that they will source more clearance stock or TGG implying/offering false hope?

      • I didn't say 'hope'. They actually said they may stock more.

        They MAY get more stock in

    • So they're going to buy more stock and sell at a loss..whut?

      • If they take long enough to find more stock the price will drop so their losses will be reduced. A few months time and some of those games will be a lot cheaper than they were retailing for outside this sale.

        Maybe they can even buy them back from the Broden on eBay.

  • This is going to get interesting. People will now start hounding TGG as to why they only received a refund and not a $40 gift card too. You would think if they do it for one they would do it for all. It must be proportional to the number of games you had originally ordered. There is no way they'd give a $40 gift card to some one who had only ordered one game.

    • Dude above got a $40 giftcard for an order with 3 games, so assuming $32 worth of games.
      Also for an order with 4 games.
      But yeah I agree, it'll get interesting.

      • +2

        No one is going to admit they did a Broden.

    • -1

      Pulled the same stunt last time they sold stock they didn't have. Majority never got a gift card - these mysterious gift cards are like xbox ones - few and far between at the shitguys………..never saw the full terms and conditions for the last mythical gift card on this forum either but hey this year tony abbot will be coming down everyone's chimney in his santa gear on Christmas morning giving away free health care for life. Where did I see this fact - well it was on this site so it must be true………..

    • +1

      I only got a $20 gift card for an order of 3 games. They shouldn't pretend they have stock that they don't actually have. Still 20 bucks is something i guess. This is why I generally buy from online UK stores, their prices are generally cheaper and generally they have the items in stock, as advertised.

      • Cheaper then $10?

  • I got 2 of the 3DS games I ordered, still waiting on another 4.

  • I received my order of Halo 4 and Pokemon White 2 today. Not all Halo 4 copies have Tomb Raider as mine did not. Packaging was a bit better than yesterday when i received Ratchet and Clank All 4 One in a Good Guys Brown bag lol.

    • Did you received a dispatch notice/email?

      • For Halo 4 and Pokemon 2 I had a call from the store and I even had tracking with this other company https://www3.temando.com
        The Ratchet and clank one I just had the call from store and it arrived next day.

        I have 2 more orders still waiting to find out what will happen.
        I also had the allocated to a store email for all my orders also.

  • Still waiting for my copy of Pokemon Black 2 that was dispatched on Tuesday from Toowoomba, i live in Brisbane. At least i think it was dispatched as i had a lady call me not too long after i ordered to confirm my address and then had the dispatch email sent. I did forget to add my unit number on the checkout and the lady did ask what unit number i was in so hopefully it's still on the way.

  • I ordered 5 games

    Pokemon black 2
    Pokemon white 2
    Uncharted golden abyss
    Pokemon heartgold
    Pokemon gates to infinity

    Heard pretty much nothing regarding my order
    Only had store allocation emails
    Rang up the allocated store they sent me to some other dedicated customer service or so they said lol and I haven't recieved any information regarding the status of that order nor a refund <_<

  • +4

    So I just rang my allocated store and they told me that they're awaiting for more stock to arrive from the manufacturers. Meaning that everyone, unless they would rather not wait and just have a refund, will receive their order. I asked how long the wait would be, and she said that since every store are wanting 500+ items, it could be quite a long time. She also said that because so many people made orders, Good Guys have a responsibility to fulfill these orders if a refund is not wanted. So in a way, this is good news for anyone waiting for that "package sent" email to show up in their inbox.

    • Which store was it?

      • That was Moorabbin. Turns out the woman I called had a few details wrong.

    • Dont want to get my hopes up but that sounds promising

    • Thanks for the info ajax.

      Would have been nice of the goodguys to at least send out a generic email to everyone so they aren't left in the dark..

    • I hope this is right I feel left out of the dark as it is

      • patience my young padawan

        • You're the one that needs patience for your 50 copies of Luigi!

    • +1

      To be honest, if it's gonna take weeks or months, I'd probably rather the refund (+ gift voucher, hopefully!!) and go buy Xmas pressies elsewhere.

      • Just got "the call" - 2 out of 3 no-shows to be refunded, 1 will be sent. Plus $20 voucher. Happy with that.

        • +4

          @Linkwick
          A free game and $10 profit.
          Not bad at all
          Happy for you
          Congratulation to TGG as well.

        • +1
          1. Order from TGG
          2. Site overload
          3. ???
          4. Profit
            (Couldn't resist :-p)
    • Update: Got another call from head office, my copy of resident evil revelations will be sent, however my two pokemon games are going to be refunded. But they're also giving me a $20 gift card to say sorry. So in the end, i paid $12 for a good 3ds game and a free $20 voucher. Not bad :)
