I'm really sorry people for the inconvenience but KG Electronic has cancelled all our orders. I wasn't expecting this happen and these were not my intentions. It seems like all the orders were cancelled.
Thanks for your understanding,

Original AUSSIE $10 off at Catch deal
Note: Many comments below notes that users with newly created accounts may not be able to use the coupon code.
order cancelled.
order cancelled as well. just wondering if they will issue the coupon back to my account to use for something else?
Unlikely.
They do, you have to ask for it. Contact support.
Order cancelled. Super dodgy.
Order cancelled. :(
same here :(
Order cancelled. Glad I didn't use AUSSIE for this. I used store credit which has been refunded.
I ordered different items. Everything got cancelled
Just received an email from Catch - "Order number #C205xxxx -A containing the following item(s) was unfortunately cancelled because the item(s) were no longer available at KG Electronic:
But the good news is that I will get a full refund of … $0 ? lol
Order Cancelled, talked to catch support and they offered to send me a gift card of $10 as compensation
What did you say? I didn't get my free cable?
i said my order got cancelled, and they voluntarily are giving me a $10 gift code in 1-2 days
My order still their but they didn't shipped it yet
Email received.
Your order has been cancelled.
Order number ####### - containing the following item(s) was unfortunately cancelled because the item(s) were no longer available at KG Electronic
Catch appear to be turning into another scummy reseller.
Online chat is supposedly experiencing high volumes. Reckon the AUSSIE sale and their handling of it didn't work.
Catch is actually quite good if you buy from manufacturers. I got my Nintendo Switch there and also 2 NES Mini when they were 99$. You have to look at product info and see who is selling. If its grey market like DWI or EGlobal, run the hell away. Otherwise if its someone you know or it says fulfilled by catch with manufacturer warranty it means you are getting from manufacturer/catch.
Order got cancelled today.
Got the cancellation email.
All the Belkin 15M ethernet cables at the KG website seems to have vanished, page got taken down. Meanwhile the 10M cables still exist…
Still waiting for my cancellation email. 😢
edit: They must have inflated their stock figures, it now shows they only have 11 10M cables and 12 15M cables. Before it showed both had 2000+ in stock.
They probably had 12 of the ones they put on Catch.
I noticed they've pulled out of ebay as well.
So a little annoyed but I guess it was free… Got an email from COTD saying my order was cancelled. Anyone else get this?
What did you order?
Also, do you have multiple accts with same delivery address?
that 15m ethernet cable
just the one account
I ordered it too, no email yet
15m Ethernet Cable?
yuup
feel like i missed out :(
Yeah, I received it as well. This was for the 15M ethernet cable?
"Order number ********** containing the following item(s) was unfortunately cancelled because the item(s) were no longer available at KG Electronic:
We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused you, and we appreciate your understanding. We're pleased to advise that your purchase has now been refunded in full to the credit card/Paypal account used at the time of purchase. Although this may happen sooner, please allow 1-3 business days for the funds to appear in your account."
At least it was refunded in full!!! :)
did you get refunded nothing or the price of the cable before discount?
hahaha yep got a full refund ;)
Did you use the coupon?
I used cashrewards! I got 2 cents as cashback from the catch order. Even if they cancel later for me, I am 100% okay. Suckers@@! I am 2 cents richer for free
Sad about the cable tho, 15m would've let me connect my ps4 all the way from the bedroom.
Mine cancelled too.
Sansai Vertical Up Powerpoint Double Adaptor/Outlet Power Board Splitter/NZ/AU
When they said full maybe exclude coupon.
Mine is coming! I got a shipping notification from Auspost saying something is coming from KG Electronics. I did use the coupon very early on this cable tho when it was upvoted like 30 times I think. So maybe they did run out of stock for you guys cause it was over 800 upvotes for the deal then.
I'd go out on a limb and say these "sales" are to attract a whole flood of users into signing up to their Catch Club or whatever it's called, lots of people will forget and get rebilled. That and they just took on a sugar load of new emails to spam with advertising multiple times daily. Probably a really cheap marketing idea to be honest.
There's a reason I haven't used COTD in years. They are scumbags and not just because of this post.
COTD used to be good, then they went downhill like 3 yrs ago, selling more craps. Didn't purchase anything since then. Trying to look for something else with their free Cat5, but nothing interest me. And now with this cancellation, I will no longer "Catch" anything from this mob, free or not.
EDIT; oops order is for something else, false alarm, as you were :D
Contacted support, they tried to tell me that the coupon terms stated 1 per customer and none of my orders will be shipped and no credit supplied.
The coupon terms actually state 1 per account and nowhere in their terms & conditions does it state a customer cannot have more than 1 account.
Currently awaiting reply.
Ordered two from two different accounts one with coupon and one without coupon. Cancellation email received for account where I used coupon saying
'the following item(s) was unfortunately cancelled because the item(s) were no longer available at KG Electronic'
No cancellation for account where I made payment…….
which one went first? the one with payment or the one using the coupon? If the former, ok fair enough (as usually orders are done in chronological order as they come, and not randomize I'm pretty sure….and it might just so happen that after your first order, there was no more stock(though which is kinda iffy because they should have had a head count of stock BEFORE -wait do they even show stock levels?) and so they cancelled the next order you had for it…); if the latter - yeah…that's a bit dodgy….lol
Message via crap of the day. Get rid of them.
KG Electronic
Hi there,
We sincerely apologise for this error with your purchase.
The order has been cancelled by Catch - Due to an issue with their promotion.
Unfortunately the promotion they ran caused us to oversell this item - Due to this issue your order was cancelled.
Again we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience.
With kind regards,
Elly
With a system such as theirs, they would surely be able to specify (in the "back end" or otherwise) how many were available?
Crappy catch will never deal with them again
KG Electronic is so dodgy, they cancelled my order, and now I received a marketing (read: spam) email from them!
My order was cancelled so I emailed Catch explained that I wasted my AUSSIE Code, they apologised and gave me $10 credit.
Might be worth Emailing them.
Still haven't received my cancellation email from them, must be taking some time to go through the cancellation of thousands of purchases :p
I too still haven't received my cancellation email, but my order just changed from 'Ordered' to 'In progress'. Are they in progress of cancelling my order?
I just received a shipping information notification from AusPost. Package is sent by KG ELECTRONIC P/L.
If you login to your catch account and go to my orders, does it say the order has dispatched?
Still says IN PROGRESS.
Still waiting for that notification, looks like I just need to be a bit more patient.
Same today
Just got my AusPost shipping information from KG Electrical. Looks like it's on its way.
Strange how it works, I ordered a lot later than a lot of people in this thread.
Must be a lotto.
Order cancelled for the same reason.
Got an Auspost shipping notification yesterday. I "bought" one when there was about 400 +votes so who knows
Chook Lotto. My order has just been dispatched, but my brothers got cancelled.
Your order has now been shipped!
Dispatched today

The Catch Team
I got shipping confirmation too…luck of the draw.
Order just got shipped as well
My order has just been shipped
Yeah mine has been despatched as well. Got the email around an hour ago. I placed my order a few hours after this deal went live so I wasn't one of the first orders. Just got lucky I guess.
My order just shipped aswell.
Just got a dispatch notification!
Thanks again OP
Order dispatched. :)
Order shipped.
Order dispatched yesterday :)
Mine got dispatched too :D
Dispatched also , my son ordered one early in the deal his was cancelled I ordered very late in the deal and have shipping confirmation? Must have done last placed orders first !!!
Wow Congrats! ;( Didn't get mine..
Shame because if I knew mine would eventually be canceled I wouldn't have wasted the code on this.
if you have time to call Catch cust support, people been reporting they got their $10 credited
Cheers, mate. Sent them an email and they credited me $10 like you said.
Waiting for collection!
Thanks OP
Got my order. Now what do I do with 15 meters of cable?
Got mine delivered today!
i guess you'll have to wait for the other 13m in the mail
got my order also for the correct product
Just picked up mine from the post office and its the right one.
Yay ~ received my belkin 15m network cable.
Also happy to report the cable was delivered earlier today :)
My order was delivered the other day.
just arrived, thanks OP! Now to find that guys wife
So my confirmed cancelled order arrived today… anyone else have a similar surprise?
Received mine the other day. Never got an e-mail saying it had been cancelled, btw.
I just got my credit card statement and it shows that I was charged the $10 anyway!
Yes I got mine too.
Mine is coming! I got a shipping notification from Auspost today saying something is coming from KG Electronics. I did use the coupon very early on this cable tho when it was upvoted like 30 times I think. So maybe they did run out of stock for you guys cause it was over 800 upvotes for the deal then.
