      With enough support from ozbargain, we can bring our promotion qty to 500 or more on the RIGHT deals easily.

      From today's result, if there are going to be continuous support, we will be able to grow to that level easily. I will prefer the honesty on people's vote in future, this gives big indicator and assist us to react.

      • You got my honest vote. Since we are talking about honesty how about some from you in the future too ?

        I know people are upset here, but please do not flame innocent people that just came in to defend or thank. Keep your anger on the right places please.

        • I'm going to get the transformer you are offering without the keyboard,are you able to offer a good deal on the keyboard if they come in later for people who missed out? I checked out of Paypal by 8:02 after having one in my cart and was informed that there was no stock left. How can I lose it if it was in my cart?

        • Nope I dont want 1 coz I hv already gotten one from Centrecom and Im after a laptop atm. At first I supported you guys because I know how shit some ozbargainers are sometimes, it was not beyond any imagination that 3-40 units could be sold out in a glance. Thats why I voted the guy. But I was not born yesterday so I checked and 90% sure that he was/is an impostor.

          P/S: My "shame on YOU GUYD" above targeted some ozbargainers, not you guys Shopping Express though.

      • Mod: Personal Attack

        Everyone knew this deal would be a hot one, so why not take the time to prepare like a true ozbargainer would!?

        • "hired gun", what an ironic name. lol

    • I took less than 2 minutes to check out (8:02 on PC clock) but didn't get one, even though one was in my cart and I got re-directed to PAY PAL to pay. I'm not sure how this works, but when I have an item in my cart at the shops then its reserved for me until I pay, its off the shelf for other customers.

  • I'm going to wait and see what the Jan sales have to offer. I suspect the main retailers will have some boxing day specials. At least one can buy it on the spot.

  • Guys,

    I didn't buy one today, but I checked the shopping express website at 8:05pm tonight and it was still in stock, with it going out of stock at 8:06. So you had 5/6 minutes to buy instead of the 2 minutes people are saying…

    • You are wrong I am afraid, the website was not updated immediately.

  • No true, I checked out of PayPal at 8:02.

  • "One hour, one epic deal". If it last for 2 minutes or 6 minutes it still sucks just as hard.

  • Anyways, I went for the $339 offer without the keyboard, not as good a deal but still better than most other places.

  • Guys, from our experience from this deal:
    when a server is really stable,
    the first 5 to 10 minutes are what it takes all the stock out, even though it is 300/500 or 1000. As the highest traffic are this period. This is a lesson to learn, as mentioned earlier, we will try to source for more stock, but no promise yet. Also I will need to talk to the tech department to see if we can grab out the details of those adding to cart and give priority to them if we can get hold of more stock.

  • I managed to get one… created my account prior to the deal starting and just refreshed the page till the price dropped… got to say it was the fastest I've ever typed in my PayPal password!

  • +2

    Those that go for the tab with no keyboard today, if we manage to get new, the keyboard will be offered exclusively to them at the Epic total price.

    • Thanks, much appreciated, now that things have calmed down, I can see it's still not a bad deal without the keyboard, If you do get more keyboards, I am interested, My invoce Number is N0034057.

      • Got it. Will update you if we have good news.

      • phantomzzz,

        You bought the tab without keyboard, and as promised earlier, all people that bought the tab only deal shortly after the Kheob's keyboard will be offered to you, once we have finished the refund process. An email should be send to you instructing how to order the keyboard.

        • You're welcome, phantomzzz :P

    • What a joke haha. Buy at normal price today and we'll give u a good deal if we get more by some chance, maybe, some day. Scam.

      • +1

        that was a message send at the end of the deal for of those that bought the ones without keyboard. It was not a scam to increase the sales, if you checked the time it was sent. The 16GB tablet special price($339) ended 1 hour plus ago.

    Long time lurker… motivated to finally post since I also missed out on the deal.

    I understand how a seller may grossly underestimate demand and sell out quicker than expected. In ordinary circumstances I don't think they don't owe any apology or special deal to those who missed out.

    However, in the original post for the bargain, the rep used some seriously strong language, 'challenging' us to 'ozbargain' the deal, making claims of huge stock reserves etc etc. And then for the deal to last all of 5 minutes… it's annoying to say the least.

    That said, ShoppingExpress has apologised and tried to offer an alternate deal (which I also missed out on, grr). Still, I'd suggest that the rep not be so freaking cocky in the future. This website has proved time and again that it will snap up good deals in moments.

  • I got one… easy transaction..clicked right on 8.. checkout was smooth..

    • Come on, another lurker? Quelle surprise and what a coincidence. Why all come down to this?

      • What, you think I'm a plant, shill or otherwise act on behalf of Shopping Square? Can't be that hard to imagine that the problems with this deal have been significant enough to warrant bringing a few people out of the woodwork, can it?

        • No, I was talking abt sonja.

  • Interesting, its back in stock at $479 again. I thought it was sold out? Where is the extra stock coming from?

    • I would like to know as well ?

      • Hi Guys,

        They are sold out. If there are any extras coming in, we will arrange and see if there are other ways we can distribute this fairly.

  • Just had my confirmation email saying mine has been dispatched. I was one of the lucky ones it seems, was ready on 8, refreshing the page till the price dropped. Had already signed up to the website earlier so just used the browsers auto form filler for the delivery details and went paypal. Got my confirmation email at 8.02pm.

    I have to say though, from the original post it did sound like you guys had 'heaps' of stock and I was all ready to just rock up at half past or something to try my luck. Glad i didnt now.

    • We thought we HAD. But now we know how it feels like when orders are flying through from all places at a crazy speed. This is really a BIG experience. In a way, we are lucky only a few extra orders got through which luckily we reserved 5 piece earlier to make sure we can handle this type of situation. We are also glad that as a result, we did not need to refund customers for overselling as a result from this massive experience (thanks to the system). This is our epic sale that sold the most till date, and the Fastest to end (unfortunately)

      • I feel really lucky that I got mine on the first epic sale a few weeks ago. That is I was logging in from way over in western Australia, on Optus mobile broadband (said by many to be "not the sharpest knife in the drawer") so was behind the 8 ball from the start.

        But like leemako, I was right there at 5pm (wa time!), already registered and ready to go, but still got tangled up in the crash of the previous order software. But the shoppingexpress team cleared their software logjam, found my order within the electronic rubble and pushed it through by hand (thanks, guys & gals!)

        • thanks mate. and seems the jam packed traffic is better than the smooth traffic after all? I was honestly shocked our stocks just flew out so fast under this new server. I was typing on facebook and ozbargain on the first few minutes (and was quite satisfied our server did not crash as i already saw biggest traffic on this epic sale), and someone already started saying sold out.. :(

      • Why wasn't mine shipped yet? So much for guaranteed next day shipping. Can I cancel my order? INVOICE #: N0034035

        • Hi Kheob,

          I did a checkup for you: Your order was put on hold by our accounts. Today it has been released and if you still want we can dispatch today. Otherwise, we will cancel this order for you and issue you a full refund today. Please confirm asap.

        • Please cancel it or offer it to someone here who missed out. Thanks!

        • Hi Kheob,

          Thanks for the quick reply. Your order will be cancelled and a full refund back to you shortly.

        • Thank you.

        • Hi Kheob,

          I did a check for you, and it appears the refund has already been done today. Let me know if you need assistance on any other issues.

  • Hi rep, I missed out because I went through Paypal.. can I take kheob's cancelled order?

  • +2

    I need to come up with the best way to distribute this, give me a few more days. We may be able to source some more quantity stock.

  • Ok, cool.. I'll keep an eye out

  • I'm in Sydney CBD and still nothing arrived today. So it will be purchase Sunday night, Wednesday stil waiting. Guaranteed next day fail.

    • +1

      Hi FerretallicA,

      May i get your order number?
      It is guarantee next day dispatch - not next day delivery. We cannot guarantee any delay from Courier's end, we only do the fastest we can on our end.

      • Yeah I know, the dispatch notice was late Monday afternoon so it was never going to be delivered Monday but still fail on AusPost/courier/whoever to take so long to deliver 2 suburbs away :)

        • Hi FerretallicA,

          Might need to cut some slack for AusPost as it is christmas period. And we had EXTRA orders for them over the weekend :). Hopefully you receive it tomorrow. And congrats, it was quite a battle.

  • Rep, my order was delivered yesterday - thank you. However, I've received a tab with a defective screen… not happy at all! Ticket 5956 was logged via your website last night and I still haven't received a response. Has anyone else received faulty equipment from these 'Epic Hour' sales?
