Hey all,

Looks like some of those games clearance titles are back on Sanity.com.au - only Guitar Hero/Rock Band games this time and some cheap cheap CDs! According to the frontpage titles will be updated daily so I guess we'll have to wait and see what else pops up on this sale :)

Edited - JeffreyM: Added in title that offer has now expired.

    Thanks mate, Got the complete Black Sabbath for $20 delivered!

    • eruption on 29/12/2009 - 17:52

      same!!

      thanks! i ordered that too!

  • pais on 29/12/2009 - 18:50

    Hopefully they don't dick everyone around - again.

      Thanks for the stupid neg, swimmingtoad. I know you used / still do work at Sanity, but the old Sanity posts attest to the fact that they have piss-poor customer service skills and cannot organize their stock levels accordingly. (The online part, at least)

        I don't/haven't worked for sanity… I just gave you a negative due to me getting my games, and prefer their service over JB's, obviously neither are good, are you finished having a cry over a neg?

        • pais on 29/12/2009 - 23:18

          Not having a cry at all, actually! Just typically a negative vote is accompanied by a comment to justify it..

          And to be perfectly honest, I do seem to recall quite clearly a heated discussion some 6 months ago about piracy… You were working at sanity at the time, studying some other degree, though. Unfortunately, you've edited all of the old comments out. But I digress, I'm sure if anyone really cared they could dig it up on a cache.

            @pais: Lol, as you would remember then i wasn't working for Sanity, i doing studies into the music industry. Lol, 'heated discussion'? More just conflicting views. It just personal opinion, i don't like the people in my Local JB, they are often rude and lacking in service completely, whereas Sanity are slightly better, im not saying they are great either

                  LOL, Fair enough, i can see where your coming from, was it a VIC store?]

                  I would suggest you go and have a read of the rules and regs of the forum mate and take the commercialism out of here, I have reported you to the mods and also made note to them of you trying to undermine genuine forum members sales/trades in the relevant thread, take it elsewhere

                  @grazer: Like I said, I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find out on Google. It's the Knox City store, more than likely, but I didn't really care to pursue it as the original posts had been edited (unfortunately, it doesn't say what time they were edited, but it wouldn't surprise me if it were shortly after I pointed out he worked there). It's a fairly easy deduction to make with the number of "Sanity v JB" posts that are made. Meh.

  • andy19363 on 29/12/2009 - 19:02

    was gonna say…..don't get your hopes too high. Have had two previous game orders placed, and confirmed, only to be told later that they are out of stock and they have cancelled the order. Their stock management system leaves a lot to be desired….

    • [Deactivated] on 29/12/2009 - 21:42

      same here ^

    • [Deactivated] on 29/12/2009 - 21:49

      I think the games were more in demand though. But you never know.

    Last time I managed to get about 6 ps3 games… and 4 guitar hero world tour complete band sets =)

      For yourself and 3 mates I'm sure…

    • anjizzle on 29/12/2009 - 22:42

      how much were the band sets?

    • Broden on 29/12/2009 - 23:23

      So how much did you make selling them on ebay? People like you are the reason most of us missed out on our orders.

  • betraya on 29/12/2009 - 23:01

    went to the sanity store and got cd/dvd cleaning kits for $1 each!

  • Valik on 30/12/2009 - 09:11

    Got mine at 4:17am today. I wonder if they will honor the Black Sabbath box set sale? At checkout it was $13.95.

    Checked again now and it appears to be all over.

    We regret to inform you that due to the high demand on this clearout product we are unable to fulfill your order of the Black Sabbath "Complete Original" boxset. No payment has been taken and your order has been released.

    We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

      surprise surprise…………not!
      stock management in this company is a joke…..

  • [Deactivated] on 30/12/2009 - 11:02

    Can't they even afford a bloody decent database?

    And there we go, Sanity proving us all right again - They are incompetent.

  • alfy on 30/12/2009 - 11:56

    Got the same email, disgusting work from Sanity.

  • Valik on 30/12/2009 - 16:59

    I don't have "the" email yet. I wonder…

  • andy19363 on 30/12/2009 - 17:12

    lots of 'premature positives' on this 'deal' methinks……

  • mrdevil on 30/12/2009 - 17:37

    Was willing to give Sanity the benefit of doubt, but they really are dickheads - someone smack me in the back of the head for being an idiot & placing an order! I bet one of their stores had one or two old crusty copies of these titles out back somewhere & thought "gee, what a good idea - we'll make a clearance section on the website & maybe sell one or two…"

    If they're going to do something like this, they need to implement an online SOH system, so when something sells out, it tells you before you spend your time placing the order … although Im sure it wont be long before they become the next EzyDVD.

    To the person who posted the deal, yes it was a bargain, but sadly Sanity have lived up to their reputation & let everyone down again - can't hold that against the person who posted the deal though!

    (I got the 'no stock' email on the Black Sabbath box set I ordered minutes after this deal was posted).

    • POWERevolution on 30/12/2009 - 17:59

      they need to implement an online SOH system
      (I got the ‘no stock’ email on the Black Sabbath box set I ordered minutes after this deal was posted).

      Agreed, same thing as GAME done to me with Saint Row 2.
      The worse thing is I had to contact GAME to find out they have no stock.

  • tomsco on 30/12/2009 - 21:49

    Just got a shipping confirmation about Rock Band & Guitar Hero being shipped, which i'm very happy with… Pity I couldn't get the Black Sabbath set for $15

  • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2009 - 10:06

    They screwed me on Black Sabbath as well. I bet there was a single copy for the whole of Australia. Sanity is now on my no-buy list and will receive automatic downmods for all future "bargains".

  • drunk on 31/12/2009 - 16:30

    Yep I was shafted on the Sabbath boxset too.. after receiving a confirmation number email and all, they emailed again and said, sorry no go. I replied suggesting they invest in a database that can handle live stock levels.
    I actually got a reply, suggesting they're having their web designers to look into that in the new year.
    Hmmm… a decade too late perhaps, but at least they're looking into it! :/

    Wish I could change my vote to -ve.

    So did anyone here successfully manage to order/receive the Black Sabbath boxset?

  • Evans121 on 01/01/2010 - 20:57

    also no deal on the black sabbath box set
