Can't believe my luck

Turns out I'm not so lucky. I've had my order cancelled too. "We had an initial allocation of stock from our supplier; however this has now been exhausted due to the influx of orders directed to us from OzBargain." Doesn't seem to matter that I ordered mine before the influx. Penalised for sharing the love. That sucks.

… just pre-ordered one of these. Shipping date approx. 25 Nov 2021

A quick Google search hoping for news that Microsoft had released more stock of the Halo Infinite Console revealed that Sanity is selling pre-orders.

Get in quick. These things sell like crazy!

e-parcel delivery is $9.95 for me. Checking for stock levels shows that there is no stock in store yet, but it's not expected until Nov 25 so that makes sense.

Release date of 25 Nov matches official (now updated) release date for the limited edition console.

No image due to new listing, probably just created the product page.

        Gonna charge back those mofos so hard..

    • I hope they get their Xboxs and not refunded.

    Curious if OP's order got cancelled?

    • +2

      Welp I got order confirmation at 13:56, guess refund email incoming soon.

      • My 13:28 order confirmation is still good. No refund email received yet

    • +6

      Well I just got back online at work to see what's happening with the orders, and I've got the cancellation email too. This sucks. I ordered before the influx from OzBargain but got swept up in the "cancel them all" tidal wave.

      This is what you get for trying to share the love. Probably would have myself a nifty new xbox next week if I kept my mouth shut.

      • +1

        That's what I thought, they will just get the money from us then return it after 2-3 months. This is not nice especially Christmas time is coming and you can use the fund to buy other things.

      • +3

        I don't think anyone actually got one, people are just saying they did. It's a common theme in these threads.

      • with deals like this…..wait for confirmation and THEN post it.

        • +1

          Lesson learnt!

          I did wait for order confirmation email, with information of expected ship date.

          Figured it was safe.

          If I waited till it shipped, I would've been waiting until the 25th Nov.

    So they put something up for sale before being able to secure stock?

    We had an initial allocation of stock from our supplier; however this has now been exhausted due to the influx of orders directed to us from OzBargain.

    Your order has now been cancelled and a full refund will be issued today

    We sincerely apologise for this inconvenience.

    • Yep damn wonder how many they had and I was too slow :O

    Cancelled email. Citing ozbargain lol

    They cancelled my order. Useless retailer can't even allocate stock properly.

  • Ordered at 1.44pm, got an email at 3.39 stating out of stock due to Ozbargain

  • +5

    Cancelled but, to give them their due, there was a well-written email apology with a valid reason for cancellation, and an immediate refund. No harm done.

  • Just received canccellation email. Refund to be processed today apparently.

  • +1

    Already got my refund. What an adventure.

  • Ordered at 10:15am (1:15pm) and received refund email, bummer.

  • Too those getting refund already, how did you pay?

    I got shipment confirmation. Thanks OP. Have to jump on the ship early.

      I call bull$h!t, but hey… good luck with it all ;).

      OP's order was cancelled, and you yet you reckon you're getting one?

  • I've ordered when it was 2 minutes from posting the deal, 61 clicks and i got "sorry" email. So if i didn't get it no one literally did, UNLESS you're networked in some way to something with the business, staff etc. Sent them back a nice F you email.

    Ordered 1:15pm PayPal.

      You got to monitor Ozbargain every minute not every 2 minute

    Suprised to see Sanity getting stock, i thought Farcebook/Scumtree/Fleabay was their official distribution, at least that's the only place i see them for sale…

    • +2

      It turns out that Sanity didn't even get any stock. They were selling what they didn't even have.

  • +1

    They can't even manufacture enough stock of the stock standard Xbox Series X let alone anything else. So what do they do. They start making a limited edition which they can't make enough of. So what are these scalpers doing to do when they do they secure this limited edition. Sell it on ebay for some thing like $2000 for an extremely hard to get Halo limited edition. The bots are what's going to secure these for the scalpers more than any one else.

    This is only feeding the scalper market.

  • Unreelable what a waste of time this company is

  • Do you guys have advice on how you keep on top of these offerings? They disappear in minutes! I can't stay on top of them.

    • +1

      They disappear so fast because the scalper bots are automatically constantly scanning for it to order it up. An actual human can't be faster than an automated computer bot.

      These scalpers will be right on this Halo limited editon for a nice right big profit through ebay. They will be citing rare limited edition for about 3 times the RRP. They're going to take big advantage of this.

    • I got mine through this Twitter account - https://twitter.com/AustraliaXSX?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctw…

      I had shortcuts in my browser to Target/MS/Big W and Ebay. All with my account details saved in Chrome with shipping addresses all loaded.

      About a month ago, MS had stock (it lasts like two minutes max everytime it comes on). I had one in my cart already as I had missed earlier in the day, hit checkout and the rest is beautiful 4k history.

      I was looking for one for a mate, I got the notification last week or the week before that EB Games had them for pre order in store only. Told his mrs, she raced to the local EB and got one of the spot.

      Make sure of course that you have volume up on your phone and notifications for twitter switched on. I got the one in about three weeks after using this method.

      • Did you get a regular series X or the halo edition?

        • Series X. There was an opportunity to get the Halo but the X was the one I preferred.

    • I found the regular X at my local Telstra store - took a week before they sold out so maybe ring yours.

"We had an initial allocation of stock from our supplier; however this has now been exhausted due to the influx of orders directed to us from OzBargain." Doesn't seem to matter that I ordered mine before the influx. Penalised for sharing the love.

    If op got cancelled and he/she/they ordered before posting, how can Sanity blame on the "influx"? Lamest excuse ever. Seems like a marketing expedition collecting people's details to add to their spamming database…

    • +2

      you know, everyone needs an excuse. The fact is not important.

    • So in other words they claim that their stock system over sold. How on Earth could that even happen in todays day and age. I thought we have automated computer systems to know how much stock there is so that shouldn't happen. Yeah i don't buy the excuse.

  • +1

    Only good thing about this was CashBack of $10

  • Another shitshow from another crappy store blaming OzB for their screw up.

    • There wouldn't be any problem if the stock system was up to scratch.

  • Are these consoles being shipping on 25/11?

    • You actually got one? When did you order it?

      • According to the lady I spoke to, they never had stock. It was a massive stuff up.

        The wording of the cancellation email turns out to be misleading. They never had stock. They perhaps thought their supplier had stock.
