I got an email from Scoopon confirming the COTD flash sale. Below is the email:

The votes are in, and it's all about to start! Tomorrow (Tuesday) at 11AM AEDT, we'll be launching the latest edition of our "FLASH SALE" (our popular hour-by-hour sale where the products are decided by our customers). Simply enter the Catch of the Day site at 11 AM AEDT and we will be featuring 12 deals, one deal per hour on the hour. Here are some of the featured deals:

Apple TV – Just $39
Diablo III – Just $20
Traditional Black Havaianas – Just $1
Pandora Silver Bracelet – Just $10
WD 1TB Hard Drive - Just $49
Amazon Kindle - Just $59
and 6 more fabulous deals!

Remember, this is a members only promotion and as such you will be required to login to gain access. Also note that as always, the quantities on the flash sales are strictly limited and vary from deal to deal. We advise that anyone who may find a few server crashes or waiting around too stressful to give this event a miss. It gets pretty crowded, but there's always outstanding value in this amazingly democratic event!

It seem that they will be doing 1 deal/hour. I am not sure if its by the most popular order first or not.

If yes then it will be Diablo 3 from 11am-12am, then the Apple TV > WD 1TB Hard Drive > Amazon Kindle> Pandora Silver Bracelet and lastly $1 flip flop. They also said and 6 more fabulous deal, so may be they will might be doing the next 6 popular as well.
Good price but stock is limited and the server may crash. If you dont have the time or patient then just give it a miss as they suggested, dont go for it and then complain that they wasted your time. If you do have time and patient then good luck getting a great bargain.

Mod: Please let me remind you again the Voting Guidelines of OzBargain, especially regarding to the negative votes. We will revoke votes that do not have valid reason.

Not Okay —

COTD sucks

Okay —

Bait advertising — requirement membership but no stock

COTD's server crashes when I am trying to complete the transaction.

Their website is no usable.

Quantity is too limited to be called a deal.

  I got a copy of D3 as well. I was using the iPhone app on the iPad and it was smooth as. They must have separate servers or gateways to handle the apps as I am having enough trouble at the moment just refreshing the non-bargain page there now advertising the other sites (hardly counts as a bargain for this hour).
  Didn't read that it might be a digital copy and paid $7.95 for shipping. Oh.. paid via credit card.
  I know I'll be firing up the app again for the next rollover of the hour.

COTD is rubbish. This was my first time on the site, I created an account this morning, logged in 2mins before 1PM, waited for diablo, hit purchase, checkout… then WHAM! login again please, so i did, then 'cart empty' at 1.03. sorry sold out now, bye bye.

I'll never bother with these guys again.

Unfortunately the following order has not been processed due to a communication error. Your Credit Card account has NOT been charged.

To continue with your purchase, please place a new order on the website.

We apologise for any inconvenience.
Mirage on 22/05/2012 - 13:10

Seriously…. do you guys reckon anybody actually bought one?

I believe they probably use these 'popular' deals to lure the fish in so they can see if they can catch anyone purchasing their flip flops…. as all you see after the page refresh are those (now those wont be sold out anytime soon!)

Edit: wow cant believe mrjk got one!! lucky fish!
