    Most of the retailers have already revealed their sale items and prices to their email subscribers. I've yet to see a single in-demand item at an unusual price.

    Althought that said, Ozbargain is probably more price savvy than the general population. Judging by ClickFrenzy's facebook activity there will probably be plenty of sales carried through by the hype alone.

    • dirtybird on 20/11/2012 - 18:34

      The facebook crowd will swarm like angry bees just to be part of it.

  • dirtybird on 20/11/2012 - 18:33

    DSE 300x Wii (whites) - $98
    Thats before the staff put away 299 of them.

    Teds cameras, $100 off DSLRs if you spend over $900. What a joke, they are at least $200 overpriced anyway
    :(

  • CVonC on 20/11/2012 - 18:55

    mwave decided to jump the gun 10 mins early.. site is instabogged with nothing that great

  • powerhammer on 20/11/2012 - 18:58

    One minute before show time and it looks like the click frenzy site is grinding to a halt!

  • Wickzki49 on 20/11/2012 - 18:59

    Click Frenzy site is already hammered

    Is it just me? Their website feels a bit slow at the moment…

    • nismo on 20/11/2012 - 19:01

      Same here. I saw the countdown at 11 seconds and then it refreshed and hasn't come back!

  • pasey25 on 20/11/2012 - 18:59

    its before 7pm and I already can't get on the site

  • busky2k on 20/11/2012 - 19:00

    The site is dead. Reminds me of those CoTD sales. Hopeless!!

  • JeffreyM on 20/11/2012 - 19:00

    Nah, tried the second the countdown went to 0 and can't get on either

  • KKraig on 20/11/2012 - 19:00

    500 Errors on here too. THE INTERNET IS COLLAPSING! lol

    • scotty on 20/11/2012 - 19:09

      Our webserver running out of connections — should be fixed now.

      Currently there are 2300 HTTP connections doing 225 requests per second.

      • machej on 20/11/2012 - 19:31

        They should all be using amazon aws during this period. International links might be slow but at least they will have the capacity to serve customers. I hate these last second deals with 5 things priced at 90% off. It never works as planned.

        • scotty on 20/11/2012 - 19:35
          +1

          Amazon AWS opened their Sydney DC with EC2 and S3 just a few days ago…

        • machej on 20/11/2012 - 19:37

          I know, but it's more expensive. Just use US West and all is fine.

  • bobjane on 20/11/2012 - 19:01

    Click Frenzy's site is down.

    Did the retailers actually get anything out of this fiasco other than the right to attach the words "Click Frenzy" to their advertisements? I feel sorry for the stores that paid for this.

    • abc on 20/11/2012 - 19:54

      Wonder if they have any SLA's? :P

  • enjunuet on 20/11/2012 - 19:02

    Its 7pm and the site has already crashed. Cannot connect!

    Unsurprisingly, it's down.

    I'm getting 500 errors here. Click Frenzy broke the entire Internets.

  • wattstar on 20/11/2012 - 19:02

    Epic Fail! Must be using the same servers as catch of the day!

    • zelda707 on 20/11/2012 - 19:03

      they use the same hosting site

  • ThePistonHead on 20/11/2012 - 19:03

    DUmbasses, they made the page auto refresh at 7pm. Adding more load than they needed to.

  • abacus on 20/11/2012 - 19:03

    Well, they wanted an audience - it looks like they got that. Now it's their turn to deliver!

    Someone might need to change the subject heading to MASSIVE FAIL

    What was the point of registering for this event?

    It only asked for an e-mail address and a mobile number, it didn't even ask you to choose a password.

    For those who have actually managed to access the Click Frenzy website during the sale, what is the process involved in taking advantage of an offer?

    Seems like a scam to harvest e-mail addresses and mobile numbers.

    Surely Australian retailers could just start advertising discounted prices on their own websites without the need for something like this.

    • Gav on 20/11/2012 - 19:09

      No emails arriving either it seems! EDIT: Fixed.

    • zelda707 on 20/11/2012 - 19:42

      i didn't recieve an email from them, but i put a fake mobile number :)

    I got through.

    Gotcha. If only.

  • abacus on 20/11/2012 - 19:04

    They should have had the COTD disclaimer..'don't be mad with us…….even if there is only one ipad for sale….."

  • Dover on 20/11/2012 - 19:04

    Website is getting SMASHED!!!

    dick smith page refuses to load

    Edit: There's nothing good anyway, don't bother

  • dmorg78 on 20/11/2012 - 19:05

    They host with Crazy Domains?

    Surely after the Grays debacle a few weeks ago they would've learnt.

    • abc on 20/11/2012 - 19:55

    And their Facebook page is already having people chucking insults at them…

  • nataz6 on 20/11/2012 - 19:06

    What a flop! Click frenzy and kogan down. Can't wait to read the news on this one "Click frenzy a giant piece of doggie doo" lol

  • KKraig on 20/11/2012 - 19:06

    Myers website is struggling bad

  • boretentsu on 20/11/2012 - 19:06

    I can see all that extra money they spent to put on extra servers worked wonders….

  • vietbargain on 20/11/2012 - 19:06

    anticlimactic much?

    Between the cotd debacle and the clickfrenzy failed takeoff, it's been a day full of non-fulfillment, yet can't help but laugh about the whole situation.

    The one's who are laughing are the websites though, these guys would have made a lot of moolah regardless and a huge amount of awareness for their sites/events.

  • cliener on 20/11/2012 - 19:06

    Brilliant programming has the site using my computer's clock to work out the time. Since I'm in WA, apparently the sale will start in just under 3 hours.

  • turbo77 on 20/11/2012 - 19:07

    waste of time! all major retail sites down too. let riot out side!

  • Dover on 20/11/2012 - 19:07

    And Ch9 just advertised it again as the top story on ACA - so now another 10,000 people are trying to get on!!!

  • Tortyfoo on 20/11/2012 - 19:07

    And yet here in Brisbane countdown still says 54 minutes. Clearly can't handle different time zones!!

  • Wickzki49 on 20/11/2012 - 19:08

    I got the DSE Wii for $98 + $9.95 shipping. Anybody want it? Girlfriend doesn't want me to get it (ggrrr).

    • WT on 20/11/2012 - 19:19

      we just gave ours away, I dont think its been used yet lol

    • gummibears on 20/11/2012 - 19:23

      Unless you're really desperate for one, I don't see why you would get it. Prices have been dropping for ages now. The next generation is already out in the US aswell.

    • abc on 20/11/2012 - 19:56

      You'll struggle to break even selling on Ebay (incl P&P)

  • Derrick Crane on 20/11/2012 - 19:08

    And todays phrase is "Problem loading page"

  • turbo77 on 20/11/2012 - 19:08

    According to their fb page, "thousands are already buying" what???

  • phantom on 20/11/2012 - 19:08

    "Click Frenzy" must refer to the refresh/reload button (obviously not product listings for paid sponsor ads). Even google doesn't know what their refreshed home page looks like.

  • supersabroso on 20/11/2012 - 19:08
    +7

    The countdown represents the time before their website crashes. lol

    • hothed on 20/11/2012 - 19:12

      Haha. Yeah, I reckon!

  • OzChick on 20/11/2012 - 19:09

    Page wont load. No surprises there.

  • ModeratorJeffreyM on 20/11/2012 - 19:09

    Added links to Target and Masters deals above for those trying to get onto those websites

    • Gav on 20/11/2012 - 19:12

      Myer link is going to Masters. Did you do that? (oops)

  • KKraig on 20/11/2012 - 19:09

    Click frenzy = Crash frenzy!

  • rifter on 20/11/2012 - 19:10

    Use the google cache page

  • gambit_asdf on 20/11/2012 - 19:10

    And they said theres no queues when shopping online!

  • Gav on 20/11/2012 - 19:10

    That's it, I'm calling ACA! Oh wait, they've already paid for an advertorial on it, so that's not gonna work!

  • parcus on 20/11/2012 - 19:12

    Toysrus over capacity, myer & dse not even loading. Isn't this just fun.

    LOL clickFAIL.

    What do we do, just go to the websites without clicking through?
    Nice to be kicked off at 7PM. That was interesting.

  • slowmo on 20/11/2012 - 19:16

    lol.
    sorry Australia wannabe online retailers. try harder next time. black friday/cyber monday isn't just about slapping a few HTML code onto some web servers and bob's your uncle.

    • Gav on 20/11/2012 - 19:21

      Nor are lousy offers that are worse or, at best, as good as you normally do. "Doorbusters" are illegal, but there are no doors on the internet!

    This is awesome - got onto the Myer site and bought a Moran leather longe for $110, chopped across to Dick Smith and Bought an iPhone for $55, went to Target and bought up big there as well ………. then the wife woke me up and told me dinner was ready.
