      • They removed the product page, expecting it to return at 7pm smh

        • Possibly. The GoPro 5 Session never had a product page.

  • +1

    Jesus, they must have had very few fitbits.

    • +1

      yah 2

      • Think everyone was there for QC35 anyway

    • Typical COTD sales then.

    • -1

      Or lots of customers?

  • +2

    When they post the fitbit deal, I was thinking whether I really need it and whether it was a really good bargain. Then I did a little googling and came back to the website, still available, checkout, entering the CC info, bang! OUT OF STOCK! Feeling I have saved $108.5 !

    • +2

      Yep same story here.

  • +5

    Waste of time. This deal should be deleted, it's free advertising for them

    • +2

      ^ - forcing visitors to subscribe to the site, limited supply of products with no actual timetable provided leading people to aimlessly re-visit the site.

      • -2

        How are they forcing visitors to visit and re-visit the site?

        Is it COTD's fault if people visit and re-visit the site on their own free will?

        • I didn't say they were forcing visitors to visit the site, rather I said they are forcing visitors to subscribe. Plus people are going to aimlessly re-visit the site every hour since they've completely randomised when items will be on sale.

        • @Baebs: Not me…I'm over this sale already. Good luck everyone!

        • -1

          @Baebs:

          rather I said they are forcing visitors to subscribe.

          How are they forcing visitors to subscribe? If visitors aren't happy with giving an email address, real or otherwise, they can simply close the window and walk away.

          Of course in reality, people will just enter in any random email address and enter the site, while those who complain will just miss out on possible deals.

  • i want to check out the Kayano 23 shoes, but are there any direct links to the deals? i can't find the special on their website.

    • Deals are released every hour, only the Fitbit charge 2 came so far at 10am (eastern time).

    • Direct links are only posted when they actually go on sale.

  • +10

    This was taken from a story on Today Tonight which aired last night.

    Looks like they only have six QC35's in stock. Good luck everyone!

    • GOOD LUCK

    • +1

      Wow… Just wow…
      If there are indeed only six, this is pretty scummy practice by CotD, especially with non-skippable email sub screen.

      • +1

        It's very very typical of CoTD and their sales.
        Seriously they do it every time.

        • You're 100% certain that one screenshot is representative of their entire inventory?

        • +1

          @eug: I'm not saying it is, I'm saying they always have incredibly limited stock but never disclose that's the case.

        • -2

          @theguyrules: That's how these sales work, and that's why they put the tickbox on their webpage telling you to expect things to sell out quick.

          Regardless of stock levels though, they do have lots and lots of customers, so it's inevitable that hot items will sell out fast. Even if they had 200 pairs of QC35s, which is a respectable stock amount, at that price I bet they'd sell out in a few minutes. There are probably thousands of people around the country after a pair, wouldn't you agree?

          @theguyrules:

          I'm saying they always have incredibly limited stock but never disclose that's the case.

          Missed this?

        • @eug:
          Hey thanks for the update 3 hours later.

          Obviously I saw that, but it doesn't say 'we have incredibly limited stock', so it's misleading.

        • +1

          @theguyrules:

          Hey thanks for the update 3 hours later.

          You're welcome!

          but it doesn't say 'we have incredibly limited stock', so it's misleading.

          What does "Limited quantities - get in quick" mean to you?

        • +1

          @eug: You're right, I missed that. Maybe should have circled it better.
          Regardless I'm glad that a bunch of Ozbargainers managed to get a pair.

    • Lol I thought maybe 10 pairs but 6, geez it's your lucky day if you land one.
      On a plus side the site is handling the traffic quite well so far.

    • +1

      if you look closely in the distance, there looks like another 6.
      might be something else htough, forgib me if wrong

    • Distorted shot? Different model? They look like round earcups, not oval.

      • Good spot. They do look strange.

  • +2

    11am deals CRAP

    • +2

      No need for a George Foreman Grill? :D

  • +2

    Is it possible to add items to cart and pay at end of day therefore to only pay shipping once?

    • +1

      sign up for club catch using a new email ;) free shipping :D

      • obly for items over $50

  • They'll do it at 12pm when everyone goes on lunch hour and that will jam up all the network system when everyone tries to access cotd at the same time.

  • Since no one has asked… anyone knows if we can claim tax refund on goods sold by COTD when we go abroad? Thanks in advance

  • Wait! You can't even visit the site without signing up with an email? To hell with that, and their dodgy deals.

  • +2

    I had a live chat with Christian (Customer Support Hero) he can confirm there's At least a hundred of Bose CQ35 headphones for tonights promotion.

    • Is it tonight then that they'll release it?

      • +1

        My money is on they'll bring out the QC35 at the last possible moment.

    • +1

      will there be more fitbit?

      • +1

        Just start a live chat with COTD

        • Gilbert (fellow hero) didn't seem to know any info about release times. fyi

        • Fitbit was a good price, they didnt even bother to advertise it beforehand

  • It seems like I ploy to get loads of people on the website, hanging around for the day before eventually giving in and buying the tuna so at least they got a deal. Then they have a bunch of traffic, loads of people subscribed to emails, and all for 6 QC35's that they probably bought during the eBay $100 deal.

  • 11am: 3DS bundle, sennheiser momentums, other assorted nondescript stuff
    well i got what i was looking for. not the biggest steal probably better ones on boxing day but i aint waiting
    easier pickup than adidases from footlocker, finally i don't cop an L
    thank you OP, Good luck everyone else

  • is it even worth getting raybans due to chance of fakes ? might just use the instore 30% off sunglases hut deal

    • they're 98.25% not fake, but 80% probably parallel import, i.e. intended for retail in bangladesh or some shit like that you feel?

  • +1

    What's with the ridiculous "subscribe to our email" each time you visit the bloody site!!!

    the "special" prices arn't anything to write home about either.

  • I can't find anything in the original advertisement, and everything similar is 20% or more expensive. This isn't a deal, its a bait and switch.

    • Surprise surprise. The Asics Kayano 23's that were used in advertising the sale, and available BEFORE the sale, but nowhere to be soon DURING the sale, are NOW available again. Isn't that a coincidence.

      I've had a gutful of this pathetic behaviour. Does anyone else know if this has been reported to NSW Fair Trading that I can lend support to, or should I start my own complaint?

        Was it nowhere to be seen, or did you just miss it?

        Before you waste their time, better make sure you didn't just miss it.

  • ray band is out buy some ugly

    IF I HAVE TO READ ANOTHER POST ABOUT:

    1. Tax Refund Scheme/ GST invoices;
    2. COTD marketing techniques ala dodgy practices;
    3. People missing out on items

    I WILL DIE FROM CRINGING TOO HARD.

  • Any idea if COTD will accept cancelling an order or return?

    Its T&C states that return acceptance is at their sole discretion… dodgy

  • gone so quick Calvin Klein Euphoria For Men EDT 100mL

    • Did it? That was the only thing I wanted to buy, but there's no way in hell that I was gonna be on that bloody site for hours to see when they put it on.

  • THE BOSES ARE OUT

    What a bunch of con artists. Wait all day and checkout instantly at 15:00:36 and no QC35's in stock.
