UPDATE: Many users are reporting cancelled orders due to a pricing error

Amazon have now started emailing to advise of the cancellation and are giving $30 vouchers per order. You can check your coupons here. For the record my order of 3 was cancelled and I received the $30 gift voucher too. The drives would have been great but I'm also pretty happy with this compensation. Congratulations to anyone who gets their order delivered.

Insane price for the 10TB WD My Book external hard drive. Limit to 3 per customer, and remember to use cashback. I grabbed 3 for $389.52 + Free Delivery with Prime.

      Seems like whoever is contacting Amazon is getting their orders cancelled. Better to stay quite like nothing happened.

        and they would deserve it. Why contact amazon at all unless they've cancelled your order. so impatient, just wait a bit, geez

        • Correct. Those party poppers.

          • @CyberMurning: many ordered expecting a price error and getting a free voucher. now they are worry that amazon charge their CC. that's why they are contacting amazon

          • @CyberMurning:

            Correct. Those party poppers.

            This you mean?

    Someone on slickdeals has got their order.
    There's a chance for those on OZB that got shipping notices to get them.

    • +3

      Apart from the 2 or 3 on OzB getting their order's cancelled. Surely this is a sign that most orders will be fulfilled?

      I mean why haven't they cancelled all the orders by now?

      • +1

        Agreed. I would’ve expected orders to be cancelled by now if they weren’t going to honour the price The only reason I could see for later orders for cancellation now would be if they can’t secure stock at all.

        • +1

          Here I am hoping people continue to update their progress, so that I can keep my hope alive!!! lol

          • +4

            @TomGum: The suspense is killing me. I've never F5'd on OZB thread so much before.

          • +1

            @TomGum: I just hope people will not be calling Amazon :-)
            Well so far it looks like their bad, getting $10/$20 instead of this excellent deal.
            Mine should despatch today, still not shipped.

      • +3

        Everyone who had their order cancelled contacted Amazon. So lesson here, don't ask about it

  • For those whose orders say expected ship date June 3rd, I suspect that this is when Amazon and it’s system has another stock fulfilment from WD.

    Amazon usually has a pretty good system when it is out of stock but their system knows when more stock is coming from their suppliers.

    • Mine says dispatch date is 27th. Is this what you are talking about?

      • Yeah, that’s right.

  • +2

    Oh man - not only is this drive showing as Jun 3rd for me (I ordered in 1st hour) but I also posted the 4tb deal and they also haven't shipped yet….Feeling ripped if I don't at least get 1 shipped

    • Will dispatch
      Jun 3

      Same on 2 a/c 's .

    • my WD wireless order has been shipped. and that was posted at 7pm

      • My WD wireless order is on back order. Hopefully not too long until they fulfil that.

  • Those who have received dispatch/shipping confirmation, what was your original dispatch date?

    • +1
      • So far I have seen 3 shipping dates…. 20,27 May & June 3.
        So I guess it defaults to every Monday based on estimated number of orders they can fulfill within a week.

        • the jun 3 squad better not be the one that gets cancelled

          • @KingSlayyer: Yeah, I'm part of the Jun 3 squad too!

            "Will dispatch Jun 3 (Arriving Jun 11 - Jun 20)"

        • Mine went from “Ships 20 May” to “Ships soon” …

        • +4

          3 separate orders (FOMO)
          15:17 15:20 15:50 (AWST)
          dispatched following day
          respective shipped times
          21:30 15:20 17:30 (more)

        • My first order is supposed to being shipped on 21 May.

          My second order is supposed to being shipped on 2 June…

      • Mine was shipped on the 20th too.

    I also have US Amazon Prime.

    • Let us know how it is, is it loud? Is it fast?

      • It's like every other WD Drives!?!?!

    • Nice!

    • Looks like they are honouring sales for at least the drives they had in-stock, sounds promising for some.

      But I still don't like the odds they will sell them below cost if they have to order thousands more.

      • My guess is…. it works like this.

        When they publish a deal, they publish it with a set amount of stock they have.
        If that stock runs out, it then goes to backorder (only if they have agreement for backorders).
        If that runs out, the seller is removed from that product of sale.

        So in theory, everyone who were able to order (not backorder) should get their (in-stock) order.

        It's all automated.

        • +3

          I'm praying to every entity that comes to mind that we get our orders. Looks like I'll be spending the next few days refreshing 2 pages over and over again.

      Looks like you had the right idea.

      Another June 3 dispatchment gang recruit.
      I ordered one at 7:24PM(AEST) on Sunday night, still waiting for any money withdrawal from my debit card, nothing so far :O
      Fingers crossed that a dispatch occurs instead of a cancellation

    My orders were delivered to my aunt's house in Florida earlier today. I'm heading there next week so will bring them back myself.

    • Are you American living in Australia, or is she Australian living in the US? Either way, would be handy, free shipping forwarding lol.

      • +2

        he is australian with an aunt in USA. he will go to US for holiday next week and comeback with 10TB hdd full of not sure.

      • Australian living in the US for the past 2 decades.

  • No payment taken and not shipped still marked as arriving 29th of may - 3rd of june :/

    • Which Dispatch Batch are you in? 20th or 27th?

      • How do you tell? I see nothing about those dates?

        • In the timeline it should have a spot that says “Will Dispatch”

          • @TomGum: Only got something saying "shipping soon" and "Arriving May 29 - Jun 3" Nothing else on the timeline

            • +1

              @mec: You must be in between LOL.
              Who knows how Amazon works. I thought I had it all figured out (coping mechanism). But the reality is Amazon has gone bonkers!!

  • Mine says due for dispatch Jun 1st. Do i get my very own batch?

        Hard drive ffffriend….

  • How does the cashback work? Could i have used it on this order?

    • Yes assuming that delivery occurs. For external HDs currently on Amazon shopback is 4.5% while cashrewards is 3.5%. Free to join for both though each has a minimum balance for withdrawal as well as longish delays for cashback confirmation.

  • +7

    I also got on the wd 10tb deal a month or so ago and it was similar to this in that a ton of people ordered on evening of the sale, some received it way early, a few days later before easter, some a week after. I was in the last batch and received it nearly a month later. found out it was on back order and didn't know exactly when next shipment from wd would be coming. Amazon live chat incompetent as usual.

    I assume this is the same if they haven't cancelled en masse. Patience padawans.

    • +1

      That's reassuring, thanks for letting us know

    • +1

      Yeah I'm in the exact same boat as you. Brought two in the last deal for 456. Only received mine last Thursday. ordered another two because of the insane price had to give it a try.

      • I placed my 1st order even before being posted here, may be 15-20mins earlier. Earlier it was “Shipping on 21”, now changed to “Shipping soon”, ill keep hopes, if they wanted to cancel, they had enough time..

    • Dispatch June 1, arrive June 24-26

    • My first order is arriving on the 4th of June, second order is due to be shipped on the 3rd of June and arrive on the 5-18th of June.

    'Arriving Jun 11 - Jun 20'

  • Amazon were quick to take my money but not shipped yet.
    Still says "arriving may 29- june 3"

    • +4

      I'd be glad if they took my money. At least it brings more hope :(

  • By the way, when a lot of you where saying "11k clicks, no way are they going to honour it". Not every click is a purchase. It's just people checking it out. People tend to click on popular things to see for themselves. Whereas not many people will click on unpopular things. That does not correlate to 11k purchases. It's 20k clicks now. It's doubled since the deal ended. People being curious.

    • +4

      But one person clicked once and bought 3…..

    • +1

      You are forgetting SD!! they had over 100k clicks during the sale.

      • +1

        And HUKD

        • over 6, purchases,, didn't get a single voucher :)

    • out of 20k clicks ,, I am sure I contribute at least over 1k :)

    • +2

      On the other hand many people purchased multiple and the deal was posted elsewhere on the internet. The OzBargain community was probably a small chunk of buyers given Australia itself is a smallish market. The deal also seemed to be available for several hours and they weren’t particularly bad times for many major regions. Keep in mind it was a US price so it was available to a much much larger audience than if this was just Amazon AU, where ultimately we’re a minor dent in terms of Amazons overall market.

      I’d guess they sold well in excess of the ozbargain click through count personally. Even with the 3 unit limit we’ve seen people creating multiple accounts to order more and there’s much more potential customers not using OzBargain than those that do.

      • That's true, but it's much easier to create another account than another credit card. And you can't use the same one. So those with partners or multi credit cards might be in luck, but they are the minority.

  • I wish we have member who work at Amazon or WD and can give insight what will happen

    • We do!! They called up and got their order cancelled!!!

    • +1

      Well we have orders shipping (and continuing to do so) and after 48 hours there’s been no bulk cancellations so I think that tells us everything we need to know for now.

        I hope you are sitting on a wooden chair and typing this?

    Forgot cashback shame on me.

  • Mine has moved according to tracking. Says it arrived in Carson CA earlier, and then a couple hours later left Carson CA
