      It's not sold out, as long as the deal has 500 likes at 4pm, then they will release them at 4pm.

    • Mea Culpa - must apologise to Catch of the Day - thought that the large "SOLD OUT" label on the web link actually meant sold out not wait til 4pm to see 500 people think getting a free item was desirable.

  • +1

    I think it opens at 4pm

    • yep. the sale will be available at 4pm.

  • +2

    I'm still weary after the Shopping Square debacle so will reserve voting until later

    • god, shopping square was so bad it was almost funny, but cotd is actually a bit more reputable from my experience

  • hopefully no one will neg this one :-)

    how can it be sold out when it doesn't start till 4pm?

    • because they don't have the functionality to mark it as an 'upcoming' deal.

      • thanks for explaining georgejungle

    Oh god here we go again, ahh interesting to see how this qualifies as a bargain as it is not yet available although yesterdays pens were a good example of something that seemed dodgy but turned out alright for the lucky winners

      I would not be enumerating my poultry just yet.

        zero. you have zero chickens.

    I just see this as spamming your facebook page.

  • +1

    I had no issues with getting my pen yesterday, I was online just before 7pm, refreshed the page, no lag at all and got the confirmation of the order straightaway.

  • How's this work? Will anyone who presses the "Like" button be eligible or is it only available to Facebook users?

    • -1

      you have to be logged into facebook to Like anything far as I'm aware
      you have to order the headphones themselves from the website at 4pm EST today to receive them
      don't make us hold your hand now

      • -1

        You don't have to be logged into anything, the Like thing is just an additional thing they've added to their site, they took the idea from Facebook, you don't have to even add them to Facebook, you can click Like on their page still.

        It's just a counter they've added to the website, they took the word "Like" from Facebook because that's where they are announcing these deals, so people would be familiar with it.

        • +1

          Actually, the "Like" button on their site DOES require you to be signed in to Facebook.. I just tried clicking on it, from their site, and it asked me to login in a popup window that was connecting to Facebook.

          It'll simply be fetching the number of 'likes' from Facebook and displaying it on their site.

          And it's easy to get confused with the wording. They tell you to 'like' it then come back and 'bite'. WTF does all that mean in real terms - who knows! :P

          • @ryang: Hmm I could be wrong, cos I'm always signed into facebook? Dunno.

  • +3

    Is it seriously this hard to comprehend a deal? It says exactly what they are doing, "If 500 people "like" this, we will give them away for free" It doesn't say the FIRST 500 to click on "Like" will get one, they are not sold out, they haven't even started selling them yet. Jesus christ some people.

      I've bought many many things from COTD and they've always sent me exactly what I ordered, sometimes they even threw in an extra little something.

    • +4

      don't be a hater dude. it's free pen and headphones :-)

    • Why in God's name would you vote neg?

    • +1

      Hmm.. Interesting how i am still getting neg votes even after their server crashes…

  • why would you neg something that is free? i guess it is pot luck if u get it if there is only 500 and the servers are busy, so it is a bit like a competition but with a reasonable chance of winning. no need to buy something from them.

  • +1

    This promotion is also a bit dodgy.

    On the COTD Small Fish page it says: Exclusively for fans of the Catch Facebook - Click here to become a fan.

    From Facebook’s Terms, section 3.9 (http://www.facebook.com/terms.php):
    “You will not offer any contest, giveaway, or sweepstakes (“promotion”) on Facebook without our prior written consent. If we consent, you take full responsibility for the promotion, and will follow our Promotions Guidelines and all applicable laws. “

    And from the Promotion Guidelines:
    “You cannot: Administer a promotion that users automatically enter by becoming a fan of your Page.”

    • The users have to do more than becoming a fan of the page.

      You probably don't even have to like it to be eligible.

      • +1

        You may be right, but what does this mean then?: Exclusively for fans of the Catch Facebook

    • All that says is that they need Facebooks approval, which I'm sure they got, and also, you are not entering a promotion at all. You are buying a product, even though it's free.

      • This statement does suggest a promotion: Exclusively for fans of the Catch Facebook - Click here to become a fan.

        All a bit ambiguous. If not dodgy, it's at least misinformation on COTD's part to get their fan count up.

        It looks like Shopping Square didn't get permission for their promotion, that's why their Facebook page was deleted.

    ehhh. Why does everything require facebook these days? :/

  • -1

    Damn how about a warning in the main blurb about it being a link to a facebook page? I stupidly clicked the screenshot/icon with even looking at it, thinking it'd take me to the CoTD page. Facebook is banned at my work - got the "red screen of death" with work's filtering software. :(

    • The screenshot and link is clearly marked facebook..

    • How is not a deal?

  • -1

    Gone nau. Lamezorz.

    • youre more lame…its not even activated yet it will only come alive at 4pm

  • What a smart way to advertise, with free stuff on facebook likes, once a person presses like, it shows up on their profile, advertising to 200-300+ people.. then a chain reaction starts. :)

    • create an account with no friend ;P

      • haha. i'm just saying the concept in general. :)

  • I'm not registered with FB (or Myspace or twitter) but am still eligible to get the headphones at 4pm. Got a pen yesterday too. Also, I can still watch their FB page.

  • Yeah I think cotd is smarter than shopping square with the promotion. They are trying to encourage "LIKES" on the facebook page without directly saying that you will get the product, might still be not completely legitimate but better than the shopping square flop.

    The pens deal worked yesterday… (expect to see it in the mail some time soon) :) I figure this will be just the same.. Cool i need a new pair of earphones as well :)

  • What.. checked 3:48PM and it was already SOLD OUT?? is this true ?

    • Nah they don't UNLOCK the deal till 4pm. refresh at 4pm you should be right.

    • You even said you checked at 3:48pm.. It's not 4pm yet buddy..

    • It's amazing how nobody reads the description of the title(posts too) :)

      • P.S.
        If i put my PC clock 10 minutes ahead will the offer unlock?(just joking)

      • Doesn't really bother me; gives me a better chance of picking one up if most people seeing this offer have reading comprehension issues! Probably explains why it took a surprisingly long time to get rid of 500 pens yesterday, too… :)

  • I have a feeling that its gonna be alot slower than yesterdays, its sorta slowing down already
