I cannot see no cyber deals on amazon ?

There are deals they're just not very good and not very cyber.

It's kind of strange really, Amazon.de don't seem to have any cyber monday deals either despite the fact that they had a banner on the homepage counting down to it the whole of last week.

I've been keeping an eye on Amazon most of last week and maybe it's me but their "deals" weren't particularly great for the most part I thought, and anything that might have been of interest sold out so fast as to be pointless.

January sale next I guess.

Found it was the exact same.. I felt I was trampled on by a virtual queue for anything good that came up!!..waste of time:rolleyes:

I had a couple of things I was looking for come up and I got maybe 20% off. Which isn't earth shattering but I was going to buy them> very anyway. Nothing so cheap I couldn't say no.

got stuff earlier in the week but saw that some prices went up not long before the sale

Was going to post about amazon Germany, but here is a list of a lot of stores/sites partaking in cyber monday - http://www.cybermonday.de/

Unfortunately feck all links.

i think it was important to check camelcamelcamel.com because you need to see what exactly is a good bargain on amazon

Very handy site, as you can set it for email reminders if the price changes, although Amazon's Wishlist sometimes tells me on the way to the checkout also if the price increases/decreases.

i got everything that i tried to get....didnt get let down once

apope8 · 05-12-2013 10:44am

Got an email this morning to say that none of my items could be delivered. This is the same address I use all the time for amazon. Anybody else have the same problem?

tony1980 · 05-12-2013 11:07am

I have got everything so far, I was out of work sick yesterday, came in this morning and there was 10 packages there for me including the TV from Amazon Germany

tooth*grinder · 05-12-2013 11:23am

The feckers still havn't even shipped mine :mad:

tk123 · 05-12-2013 11:35am

I got an unexpected mail from them yesterday giving me a goodwill refund on a netgear wifi repeater because they felt they could have offered a better price! €5 back

Ivefoundgod · 05-12-2013 11:43am

My TV is being "transported to the delivery depot" since 2:50pm yesterday. Hoping it gets to me today.

Mine arrived today. Ordered on Tuesday the 26th. So took 9 days.

slave1 · 05-12-2013 12:11pm

Yeah, delivery is slow at the minute, my multi orders are taking around 7-9days to deliver when at normal times I'd expect 2-4days.

Ivefoundgod · 05-12-2013 12:33pm

I received 3 books I ordered within about 3 days, came via An Post. These weren't part of the Black Friday deals but it seems delivery a bit hit and miss at the moment. Not too surprising when Monday was busiest day of the year for them.

hoodwinked · 05-12-2013 12:35pm

i made two separate orders,

1: 27th November - Dispatched Due today - just arrived with An Post, its all books though, i have more books arriving on monday so i'll update then with which courier.

2: 30th November - Dispatched due monday

GrumPy · 05-12-2013 12:37pm

Some stuff I ordered took longer than usual, others super quick. I guess they are getting hammered at this time of year. Stupid amount of orders per second.

I'd love to see the stats! :eek:

beauf · 05-12-2013 12:42pm

Every thing I ordered more than 5 days ago has arrived.

But alas no, shipping today

I got Books delivered by An Post so still using them. Maybe not for all orders.
