    That Pixar box set could be good if the price lowers nicely. Will keep my eyes open later.

    Shame I'm always skint when these deals come around tho!

    Check the reviews. Looks dodgy

    That crucial SSD is tempting, crucial site quoting around €110 so it's a great saving.

    Ok I must be doing it wrong, I added a preorder item, then got my deal and checked out for free delivery. Then cancelled the preorder item and got charged postage on the smaller deal item.
    Should I have left the preorder item there for another while?
    Lost out on the deal as it was gone then for me to try again

    Cancel the preorder after you order (once you get the confirmation email). Free postage is not lost.

    it gives you the option of updating the postage, just back up and your order is there less the dummy item with free postage.

    Have been waiting to get a good SSD at a good price for a long time, so just got the MX100!
    I'm going to have a fun Christmas morning moving my install to the SSD haha.

    Really don't need another SSD. Joined the wait list anyway.

    That must be what I was doing wrong. I just kept clicking through and it updated the postage. Thanks

    If you refreshed the screen they tend to mix in with the rest of the deals.. scroll back

    On the waitlist for the Targus laptop bag. £21.99 seems like a great price. Good chance I wont get it at this stage though.

    Do the deals get better as the week goes on or what does anyone know?

    not really...what you will see is a few different deals across the days


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,359 ✭✭✭DubDJ


    Missed out on the SSD while trying to decide if I actually wanted it. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,734 ✭✭✭zarquon


    Some good stuff on amazon.de I'm hoping some of the same products show up later this week on amazon UK deals

    Reports of some titles not being region free. It seems they are region 2 though so you should be fine.

    Amazon.com is worlds apart from its UK portal. Even looking up links to discounts that may vaguely have any interest in its pretty terrible. Form what i can see most of the products are non reviewed well crap for want of a better word...

    Just picked up the Tiger junior drum kit for my nephew...........hope my sister has the space for it!

    What are the chances of something that sold out being on again later in the week? Was looking at lego art set

    terrible the way families can fall out like this:D:D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,923 ✭✭✭adocholiday


    Is there much point buying the like of TVs or Monitors in these deals or would I be better waiting for Cyber Monday?

    No way in hell is that xbox bundle worth £481.07; http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00P8WA81G

    Blatant false advertising to make the upcoming reduction look better.

    These are amazon prices

    Xbox one console with COD:AW AND Forza 5 £329
    Controller £34.85
    12 months gold £38.49

    total £402.34 and an extra game

    If they were to reduce an already discounted bundle it would be value; but even £100 off £481.07 wouldn't be worth it.
