    Error I had when checking out. Using Firefox on OS10.8.

    Proxy Error

    The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
    The proxy server could not handle the request POST /secure/checkout-transactional.html.

    Reason: Error reading from remote server

    Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

    I haven't got this to work, but I have received an email for creating my account, which includes the password in plain text.

    These guys are doing it wrong. Not keen to ever buy something from them if the password is not even hashed.

  • matt_will_fix_it on 19/11/2012 - 13:58

    These guys are doing it wrong.

    Maybe you are doing it wrong if you don't have unique passwords for each site you visit…

    I assume no site stores your details hashed, and if it does then its a bonus.

    • _Bruce_ on 19/11/2012 - 14:03
      +5

      I don't care that this password is exposed, I care that they did this at all. Would you trust them with your credit card? Would you add games that actually cost money to an account that is secured in this way?

      For people who reuse passwords (which is most people), everywhere that you use the same email address and password is now exploited. You should probably change them all.

      • ryang on 19/11/2012 - 15:08
        +4

        Would you trust them with your credit card?

        This.

        If you can't hash a password, you aren't getting my business. If you email my password in plain text, I'm deleting my account.

        Seriously.

        This shit isn't hard. I've been encrypting passwords for years, it's a one-liner… Even MySQL has a command for it!

      Users negging him:

      The site not working after half a dozen attempts is a perfectly valid reason to neg.

      What difference is it to you if there's a valid neg on this deal? Take a chill pill.

        With all respect, the deal will be alive for another 7 days. I'm sure all those complaining here will be able to access the site shortly and receive the games as posted above. At least posting the deal has made more people aware of it for when it does work.

        • ItsMeAgro on 19/11/2012 - 17:12
          +1

          Your guess that it will work eventually is as good as his guess that it won't.

          Regardless, it's not working now, and that's useful to know.

          Do you see what I mean? His contribution is useful, but suppressing his comment and neg, on the other hand, helps absolutely no-one.

      All the neg votes at your comment, when it's clear that you were right, and their site sucks at such basic things?!

  • g12345567 on 19/11/2012 - 14:12

    Agree here. Web site is slow as a snail at the moment.

    Error creating account. Even though I got sent registration email.
    Unable to login with newly created account.

    Either get "Invalid Login or password. Please try again or create a new account" or a "502 Proxy Error" message when I try logging in.

    Definitely looks like the server is overloaded and having issues. I will try again later and hopefully I will be able to login and download these.

    Thought I'd let ozbargain know that I finally got bioshock to go through. Got an email a few minutes ago. So positive vote from me.

    • CarbonTwelve on 19/11/2012 - 14:45

      Yeah, I'm getting the same while trying to get Midnight Club 2… I'm assuming it's just due to server load.

    • NFS on 19/11/2012 - 14:47

      I don't really know.
      I tried it, got the proxy error message "Proxy Error

      The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
      The proxy server could not handle the request POST /secure/checkout-transactional.html.

      Reason: Error reading from remote server

      Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

      Haven't received any keys (was done a good two hours ago) and whenever I try to do it again I get
      "Payment Refused You might not have entered your payment details correctly, or you might have been blocked by our security system."
      Perhaps it thinks it is already in my account??.

      It is either the site is getting really hammered and will just take time or the deal is off. Not sure.

      Good luck to all.
      :)

    Sorry to hear that so many are having trouble with the site. It is obviously under heavy load and you might have to wait a day or so until the site is more responsive. Do not panic, as long as the deal is continued, you will have until the 26th to purchase and download the games. The current download speed in any case is very slow, about 6 hours for one game.

    • CarbonTwelve on 19/11/2012 - 16:21

      They do say it's until 26th or they run out of keys. I suspect when you're offering popular games for free that you're probably going to run out of keys…

    Crap web site. I signed up earlier today and it wouldn't allow me to login with my new password, kept saying my user name and password were incorrect when I tried to log in. I tried again earlier this evening by creating another account with a different email address and got exactly the same error. Even though on both occasions I could request a lost password.

    Gave up. Revoked my positive vote. Crap like this does not deserve any positive votes unless it works and you can actually get the product.

    Hi.
    Ive started using the ozbargin website in the last week and
    found this ""deal/bargin/special" the WORST on offer

    May I suggest remove this company from ever being listed ever again.

    It seemed like a total scam to get people to sign up.
    I told 25 people about this offer, everyone went to sign up , everyone got the same thing , taking hours to respond , error messages with logging in , saying the account already existed.

    Myself it didnt work in Firefox , so I tired in IE , got a message saying I couldnt make the account as the name and email was used. So I asked for a password reset, to get a message saying the account on that email didnt exist.

    Worst offer of 2012 for me
