    Can anyone use this site? I still cannot get anything after posting XD

  • wfdTamar on 10/10/2010 - 11:04

    People - c'mon. A short description of what the site actually sells would be helpful!

    • fuzor on 10/10/2010 - 11:07

      Ok added. I managed to get 3 movies, but missed out on the ones that i actually wanted. Namely whisper of the heart and grave of the fireflies

  • WingedNike on 10/10/2010 - 11:05

    Servers overloaded… can't get anything :(

    • WingedNike on 10/10/2010 - 11:20

      Just bought Baccano and Gundam 00 series 1!
      Took me about an hour to order them though, the site is severely overloaded.

      • fuzor on 10/10/2010 - 11:31

        !!! How did you do it? i'm on the payment page and its loading for like half an hour already.
        Edit. OK just got my order through. Got 5 cm per second, girl who leapt through time and millenium actress. Took so long…Im outter here

        • WingedNike on 10/10/2010 - 19:23

          Nice haul, I didn't manage to look at the movies - just stuck with the series I knew I wanted. I would have got more if their site worked properly >.>

          • fuzor on 11/10/2010 - 00:33

            @WingedNike: Thanks :D same to you. I would have got whisper of the heart too but it went out of stock before the sale even began…

    lol another case of a sale as a load testing exercise for their server admins.
    They've been pushing this sale on their mailing list, etc as a special, time limited sale… you might that they would expect/prepare for more visitors/hour than usual :^{

      bah - finally gave up without being able to buy anything….

  • Barf on 10/10/2010 - 12:09

    I waited about an hour for my order to go through when it finally seemed like it had, it then said my cart was empty, it had 8 items in it

  • Sutekh on 10/10/2010 - 12:23

    Yup, utterly ridiculous. My cart has cleared on me twice.

  • exe on 10/10/2010 - 13:36

    Once I used once of their 20$ vouchers on the site, the stuff never arrived.

    • You and Me on 10/10/2010 - 14:48

      I like Madman. I've bought successfully from them.

  • dmtdude on 10/10/2010 - 14:35

    Whoops! Something went wrong. LOL, I could already tell something was wrong with how long it took you to tell me that something was wrong. Guess I'll have to keep trying because it's a great offer.

  • vwh on 10/10/2010 - 14:37

    Fail!!! Classic COTD moments.

    Madman posted this on their facebook page:
    "Hey guys, we're doing as much as we can, our servers are just getting pounded many many times more than any other sale we've had…"

  • Sutekh on 10/10/2010 - 15:27

    Madman posted this on their facebook page:

    You win internet… You win.

    Due to incredible levels of enthusiasm for the 10/10/10 promo, our website is very nearly dead. We will shortly be ending the promo and I believe taking the site offline to pick up the pieces.

    BUT DON'T FRET… We’ll see to it that everyone gets their chance to pick up a crazy bargain in the very near future.

    Keep an eye out here, on the site and on our Twitter feed for all the latest updates.

    We hope to have news for you in a day or two, once our servers stop smouldering…

  • elegantegotist on 10/10/2010 - 16:53

    It was the same when they had this a couple of years ago

    • WingedNike on 10/10/2010 - 19:24

      Back then they extended the sale for another day after the servers crashed, to allow people fair time to shop. I think that they will be unable to do that this time, as their website is broken into tiny pieces lol.

  • ssxmal on 10/10/2010 - 20:03

    hopeless…

  • kez26 on 10/10/2010 - 22:14

    managed to get one thing into my cart, but couldn't pay for it before they took the site down :(

  • Yuri Lowell on 10/10/2010 - 23:10

    Lol they never learn. During Madgate a few years back the website died in just a couple of hours too.

    • fuzor on 11/10/2010 - 00:32

      I think they're renewing the sale later on. I'll keep you guys posted :D

    • uraha on 11/10/2010 - 01:00

      this time they died in less than 1h…couldn't buy anything :(

  • Nezuji on 11/10/2010 - 10:03

    They posted it on their Facebook page but didn't send it to their e-mail subscribers? Of their last four online sales I've had an e-mail regarding only one of them. They never miss sending me their regular monthly e-mails, though. What's up with that, I wonder?

  • fufufu on 12/10/2010 - 13:49

    So…are they going to have the sale again or what? I couldn't get on the site at all that day.

  • fuzor on 13/10/2010 - 20:00
