got a leaflet with a cotd order which offers free shipping for orders over $80 from their popup christmas sale until the 14th Nov
Says to visit: www.cotd.com.au/xmas
Have tried and it works on other things on the site, not just the xmas sale
seems to be just 1 use per acct
Whilst probably not a valid enough reason for a neg, you're pretty right. This time of the year is anecdotally a bad time to order with COTD in my experience.
In their defence it's no doubt a busy time for them; however, they do a pretty half-assed job of handling it & make a lot of mistakes IME.
Sweet, i just used it buy some sheets. The 1000TC Canningvale set is so amazing. I bought some 6 months ago and now am getting some more.
For a 1000TC Queen set, under $90 is a unbelievable. And Canningvale is a great brand!!
I bought the same sheets a few months back. Was very disappointed. Were the worst 1000TC sheets I have ever bought. They pilled up after about 2 weeks. The Target 1000TC sheets I had for 3 years hit them for 6.
A lot of OzB'ers have reported this about the COTD 1000TC sheet sets in the past IIRC.
aside from a few good deals on tech and luggage sets most of the stuff on cotd seems to be overpriced junk you can find in $2 shops. Even brand-name stuff aren't always legit. ordered some parker pens last time and the quality was shocking. wouldn't have touched it for 50c let alone the $20 or something ridiculous they charged.
Yep, they do a lot of shonky stuff like getting manufacturer bundles & splitting up the components, then selling them at a 'reduced' price only to make it up again with additional shipping on the partner component…dodgy.
Chances are by the time you get your item it will be christmas next year. Good early order deal for 2013.
