    • Nice! Some might call it cheating, others a loophole. For 99% off I think it's every man for himself…

    • How did u pay - cc or paypal?

      • Paypal onetouch. all my details are there ready to go

  • Some reason webjet is still showing in stock but out of stock label isn't on it

    • Same thing happened with the 32" TV for about 5-10mins after it sold out

  • wow just wow…

    • who got the apple tv

  • +1

    apple tv all gone

  • +1

    how…… seriously, I clicked on it within the second

  • Goodnight until tomorrow morning for the ps4.

  • +1

    FFS

  • Alright so my wife got the apple tv. Must be that NBN fibre :P I won the TV earlier. Guess I have to give the playstation a go to tomorrow then.

    EDIT: order #1154. They must have given lots of the webjet vouchers I reckon.

    • Congrats, i was able to get the TV aswell with NBN :P

  • GOT THE APPLE TV (profanity) YEA

  • Every time I've tried, I can add it to Cart but when I go to check out it says it's Out of Stock. I can re-add it to Cart but it still does the same thing. Is this happening to anyone else?

    • Means you are too late. But yes, items can be added for a while after they are gone, this happens to everyone.

      • Damn. Well done on your wins :)

  • I'm waiting for the DJI - PHANTOM 3 STANDARD - DRONE FOR BEGINNERS - 2.7K HD VIDEO $5

    • gone in 0.2 seconds

  • +1

    Here comes the question: wake up at 5:30am for the chance of a PS4 or just go screw it? There's probably only one or two to give away anyway.

    It'd help if they gave a "1 of 20" thing.

    • +2

      I have a decent connection but apparently decent isn't enough, people with nbn are going to beat anyone that's lower everytime no matter how quick you are

      • That's not exactly how ping works…

      • Girlfriend and I got the Tv and the apple tv using my optus cable.

        • Ok then more technically, people who are closer to western australia will probably win then, is that more accurate?

        • +1

          @smodahf: I live in sydney lulz, I think it's a random process of who can get through the traffic.

        • It's not really a fair system, should involve some kind of riddle or something, or an actual treasure hunt not this, how is this system fair and equal to everybody?
          I mean how is some 70 year old pensioner supposed to win if techno kids can spam f5 on a page that is well known by now

        • @smodahf: I wouldve much preferred like riddles and make it more fun tbh. I thought that's what it was gonna be.

        • @smodahf: It's called "click frenzy", not "riddle frenzy"

        • @John Kimble: You're absolutely right, but still…..

  • Even failed to checkout using my ultra fast 10Gbps interconnection - http://imgur.com/a/gMRxN
    :(

    Anyone else feel this exercise in fueling greediness and commercialism dirty at all?

    • +1

      I feel like I need to climb a mountain in Tibet and get some fresh air and perspective for a sec…

  • I feel sorry for all you people getting baited into this + wasting your time with pretty much 0% of getting anything

    • +2

      Yes.. I agree… No one else try. >:]

      • Yeah we are all losers here…… except for those people that actually got something ;)

  • Didn't even get the email…. bad form Click Frenzy! I was waiting on it to start checking again, and then I find out they're already gone. Oh well. I think I'm done. Curious though, other than the PS4 and Dr Dre headphones, does anyone know what else they're planning? I know there's a Samsung 55" at some point, anything else?

    • My email was late to arrive too, but I did eventually get it.

      The next email will bear clues for:
      $100.00 Westfield Gift Voucher $1
      Apple Ipad Mini 2 $2
      Series 6 Ultra HD SAMSUNG 55” TV $10
      DJI - PHANTOM 3 STANDARD - DRONE FOR BEGINNERS - 2.7K HD VIDEO $5

      • +1

        Thanks! I still haven't gotten mine actually… bit let down that I didn't get to go for the Webjet. I have to go to an interstate wedding in January and it could have paid for the hotel haha

  • Just got the last email after everything was gone. Am I surprised, not really.

    Almost a good viral campaign albeit the upcoming legal issues, good luck with it Click Bait Frenzy, you are almost as bad as Finderdotcomau.

  • Anyone staying up for the PS4? :P

  • +6

    Some tips that've proved successful for me. Been refreshing the shopify product page alone, stayed signed into the ClickFrenzy GoWild account with saved address and PayPal also signed in and ready to go. Make sure you get the confirmation page with the big tick and order number (with Google Map snapshot of your shipping address) to be absolutely certain. Seems from the posts here, the platform lags in updating the soldout status. If in doubt, the confirmation email was pretty much instantaneous ->
    "Congratulations - you have scored the bargain of a lifetime! Hi X, we're getting your order ready to be shipped. It will take up to 2 weeks to dispatch, and delivered with plenty of time before Christmas. We will notify you when it has been sent."

    In terms of predictability, it seems completely random as to when (in the 30min/1hr window) it goes up. Definitely no exact pattern to it. Most likely the pages are being published manually? For example, TV/FitBit/Apple TV were pretty early on in their promo windows, whereas the Webjet voucher banner link was up for a good 10min before the actual GoWild storepage worked.

    Based off order numbers, assuming it all started at #1000?, I reckon a few dozen fitbits, a handful (<5) TVs, a few dozen Webjets, and idk about the ATVs (probably only a handful too).

    As a reminder as per the email, the PS4 is in Office, 6-7am AEDT, and the Beats Headphones are in Luggage 7-8am. Unannounced times for 4 others ($100 westfield, Ipad Mini 2, 55" UHD Sammy and the Drone).

    • Even with PayPal One Touch turned on, you still have to click on confirm on the PayPal page so you get delayed by 1-2 seconds after clicking Pay with PayPal.

      No point of people going to the category pages when there's a direct link to the product page :P

      • Sorry if this sounds like a naive question but is the direct link you're talking about is the main page of the Click Frenzy Store (where you add these 'specials') or something else?

  • +1

    Time for bed. Will get up early and try for the PS4, but don't have much hope..

  • Beats headphones on

  • PS4 sold out at 6AM on the dot LOL

  • OMG.. absolute bullshit. Add the PS4 to cart the instant it came on.. sold out. back to sleep..

  • That was quick!

  • Ah ps4 sold out in the time it took me to press PayPal grr

  • +1

    Cool, got a PS4 for $4

  • Wow someone must have a buy bot running that was nuts

  • so, it was pointless

  • Gone within seconds

  • +1

    Ha what a joke. probably only 1 PS4. Sale should be called Click Baity. :)

    • At least 5 units I'm pretty sure.

  • +2

    I scored the PS4, email received confirming order!

    • +1

      Looks like you and one other Oz Bargainer scored the PS4, lucky!

      • +1

        Yeah I know, dam lucky! Just happened to refresh the page a couple of time before I saw it, that's when the heart rate jumped up a notch.

      • now it looks like 4 people on here scored a PS4, so at least a they had more then 1 unit available

    • how on earth did you confirm the order and pay so quickly? I had a page refresher on and clicked as soon as it came on, went to cart and clicked pay with paypal.. but saw the red "SOLD OUT" in the cart..

      • +1

        I was logged in with my details already registered with the site, and one-click Paypal active so I didn't have to fill out any forms once I added it to the cart.

  • +1

    I just got a PS4! Managed to snap up the Webjet voucher and Apple TV last night too :)

  • Absolute BS…. So I still had the Samsung TV in my cart when I was trying to checkout the PS4… by the time i removed it i knew i was too late :(

  • I failed to make a payment at one point

  • +1

    Was lucky enough to get one of the PS4s despite being a bit surprised that it was offered just after 6am and not later into the hour. However, I followed the advice which others here have suggested to have ready (eg; logging in early, filling-in addresses, etc) so was able to complete within 30 secs once I saw the item

    • +2

      30 seconds? I was there in a second and didn't get it lol

      • haha, I meant once I saw the item - it took 30 secs to add the PS4, confirm my address (which I entered previously) was correct and make the payment through PayPal (which I logged into before 6am)

      • yep.. me too.

    • +1

      If it actually took you 30 seconds, then I guess that definitely confirms that the product is held as soon as you click "checkout".

      • +3

        It is - that's Shopify's cart hold policy. Once you hit the Checkout button it checks inventory levels and if there is still one available it holds it for 5 minutes. That's why a lot of people have been able to add items to their cart but then receive an error message about stock levels once they attempt to checkout.

        • Seems pretty fair game to me. Better than the COTD policy

      • It seems like though from what others have said last night that you have to complete the transaction quickly. Don't have confirmation about that but if that's the case, it's like the Amazon 'lightning' deals where you have 15mins from when the item is added into your cart to complete the purchase otherwise.

  • +2

    i stole all your ps4s

    http://imgur.com/a/cMPF4

    • +1

      Haha Broden PS4 edition, if it was true.

    • In the imgur link it says PF4, you got scammed

  • Anyone know why the PS4 is no longer in the product listing whilst the other items are (marked as sold out)?

    • It's gone for me too, how weird. Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come.

      • Hoping this means it'll get re-released? Link is still live https://www.clickfrenzystore.com/products/4psn
        Also slightly different to other products in that there's no variant number in the URL. Might mean nothing but might mean something to you techies (if so, help a sister out, still no success).

        • That link gives 404 now. Other such as https://www.clickfrenzystore.com/products/fbp still works. Will be interesting to see if the next item shows up in the product listing at all or if maybe someone accidentally released the ps4 (since it was released on the dot very unexpectedly) and then they pulled it hoping no one had seen it yet :P

    • They've probably just scheduled the product to be unavailable after a certain time and haven't done it for the others. It looks like whoever set this site up has been a little sloppy… Being able to view the full product listing defeats the purpose of the treasure hunt!

      • its definitely not like that. I bought the whole PS4 thingy just in 10seconds. like when it was 6:00:10am i finished and paid. you MUST be quick thats the only way.

        • I meant in terms of the product's visibility on the site rather than availability. Once it becomes visible on the site it's fair game!

  • The banner was never placed up under office on the click frenzy website.

  • The playstation only appeared on the product page

  • +1

    I got one: http://imgur.com/a/chz9s
    I followed the advice given here (creating account, filling in address, etc.) and I agree with what some people have said about the order being held during checkout because when I checked out I had to enter my phone number which I forgot to add it last night adding a couple seconds to the process.

  • Where did the banner appear at?

    • Supposedly should have appeared under "office", but apparently it never went up. I think they effed up this one.

    • i never saw it appaer.. the ps4 only appeared on the product page on click frenzy

      • Where you refreshing at 6am (or 5am Brisbane) on the dot? It might have disappeared when sold out. Or maybe they screwed up.

  • wheres the beats?

  • What's up next?

    • be quiet cant you see everyone is refreshing?!

      • shit my F5 button just broke

  • +1

    so what do ppl make of the fact that the ps4 is not on the product page anymore after last hour's kaboodle.
    are they on to us?

    • They should of realised this from the get go, it's a pretty simplistic system to save time, very lazy and poor form considering the banner never even came up. I can see clickfrenzy getting into trouble on this one or at least a lot of angry e-mails
