My guess is that a lot of these are going to go through. I think it is just happening slow because of the mass orders they received. Maybe they had to unload all those games for Tax purposes like some kind of tax loophole

Hey everyone. I got a couple of games but most of these deals were dead by the time I stumbled across them. Question for those of you who know:
Is this normal for overstock.com or did they make a mistake and we all caught it before they could fix it?
It will make a difference as to whether I bother with ever going to the site again in hopes of finding a deal because all that's there now is a bunch of non-deals and in the past I have never really found anything there either.
Sorry if this was brought up earlier but I just can't read through 38 pages of text to see.

They have decent deals from time to time but nothing quite like last night's sale from what I have seen

Especially when you know nothing about Art and Music........I didn't even know you existed until you made that comment to my posting. Should have kept your cocksmoking mouth shut in the first place then you wouldn't have become a round red thing.......I am really joking around but you just don't "get" the joke...Lighten up and pull the corn cobb out of there..it's just a joke...

I have over 40 guitars ....I have one of those SG supreme's in Green (I think it's called emerald burst or something like that) and everyone thinks it is ugly. It looks better in the pictures than it does in person. Good thing I got it for free from Gibson....The Les Paul on the other hand, sounds amazing and I always get comments on how beautiful it is. The tone is so sweeeeet
xzafixz
09-29-2004, 04:50 AM
I'm too modern to apperciate les pauls look, i could understand how it would be considered good looking or what not but i just don't like it. SG on the other hand i can relate to, i think it is the best looking guitar out, but that is all opinion. The fact that Les Pauls have the best sound around, that isn't opinion, thats a fact.

I'm with you there, naked gun and total recall would have been excellent, I had to settle for Seabiscuit and School of Rock. I want to see seabiscuit, but I thought school of rock was so-so. I'd gladly trade school of rock for naked gun (fat chance I know) or total recall. I don't really remember the other movies.

i doubt that the can, and if they would they would be slapped with so many lawsuits they wouldnt know what to do. More like overstock knew they made the mistake, but instead of cancelling they filled the orders thinking many of the people who got in on this order will return. Yea they migh to lost tons of money but they might get alot more then that in return business. I know for a fact if my stuff comes in real good shape i will shop there again

I'll be the first one in line to file one. It just wrong to change the contract after signing one. I'm sure they now know about it .

I've got a theory on why this happened. I work for the government and our fiscal year ends in Sept and begins in Oct. Do some businesses follow that schedule as well? being these deals happened in late Sept. Maybe they had to hit some kind of level of profit for it to be a successful year or quarter or something

I dont see how they could possibly be making any profit of these games, obivously the government section you work for hasnt told you that you have to pay for an item before you sell it, and Im pretty damn sure they paid more for the item, the workers, the packaging, and the shipping, than the customers did.

They probably paid for the item a long time ago decided it was taking more money to store it then it would to sell it at a loss. Or maybe they just wanted to draw more people to their site I bet they get three times the page visits a day now

you may be right, I had 3 little orders for myself (I've learned with these types of deals not to dick around and slowly add stuff, go for the top 2 or 3 things u want then make another order and get the next couple things. Repeat until either they are sold out of stuff you want, or got everything you want) and 1 big ordered filled with X-mass presents. The 3 little orders shipped, but the big one hasn't yet.

Ad there I sat, all smug, laughing knowingly at these maroons trying to pile onto a "deal" that's obviously going to be rejected, ending in a slew of "Bastards! I'm a lawyer and I know blah blah blah can't do that! Let's from a class-action"-type comments.
And now the orders are going through, and I'm glad I held my tounge, as it would be very tired from eating my words.
Congrats to all who got in on the deal. I was too late to the boards to climb aboard myself (it was already on page 28, only 9 hours later), but I take some small pleasure in knowing that so many seemed to get in on such a great deal. And no small displeasure that I am not among that number.

I don't mean to rain on your parade, bro, but calm the ego down a bit. Contrary to what you said. You were just the first one to post here about it. You deserve some praise for filling everyone in, but don't get out of control.
My order confirmation arrived at 5:30pm -- an hour and a half before your post went up. I didn't post about it because my close (real-life) friend couldn't order, and I wanted to give him a chance to get some goods before I posted and everything disappeared. By the time I was ready to post, the crap had hit the fan.
I'm not mentioning this NOT because I want to make myself look cool. I just see you getting a little too self-inflated (a shout-out from Cheapy D? come on...), and want to make sure you don't grow into a monster.

I assumed he just meant it would have been nice if it had lasted long enough to be a front page deal. Maybe I misunderstood.

I have to admit that I'm shocked that Overstock is actually shipping these.
I missed out, but glad that those of you who were in the right place at the right time are getting what you ordered.
Props to Gycot for finding this. I think the title was hilarious.
"More random overstockage-2 dollar deals"
You made it sound as if they were minor, crappy games.
NFL Street, Sonic Adventure, Dues Ex, Amplitude, Arc the Lad, Wario Ware.....
Incredible deals.
Here's hoping CC has some $5 madness on some of those.

How am I being ungrateful? As I said, I saw the deal before the post was posted. It kind of goes to show that no deal stays hidden for long, with all the CAGers on the prowl.
I agree with everyone that this was one of the biggest deals of the year (or, at least, I'll think that once my order is in my hands). I also agree that gycott seems like a cool guy. I just want him to stay like that.

Did you even read my post? Nothing I said insinuates that I don't appreciate the deal. Hell, I'm the one who posted that people who missed out shouldn't be wishing ill on those who were able to take advantage it.
If Gycott meant that he would've liked to see the deal posted on CAG's front page when he said he was hoping for a "shoutout from Cheapy D," then I misunderstood and I apologize.

I did read your post, and I guess I could have put a few more words in mine, it was meant to be read as
"everyone but ViolentLee appreciates [Gycot posting] this deal". Since you already knew about the deal, and were, in fact, sitting on it in an attempt to keep people from finding out about it until your friend could order, it stands to reason that you did not appreciate him posting it.

Blessed is he who in the name of charity and goodwill shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children.
And I will strike down upon thee with great fury and furious anger those who attempt to poison and disturb my brother.
And you will Know my name is the Lord when I lay my Vengeance upon thee.

DHL isn't a new shipping company, they're an older company that's been around almost as long as UPS and FedEx. They merged with Airborne Express a year or so ago, and they're finally finishing up the merger with Airborne, which is why you're seeing the yellow trucks and the DHL logo'd stuff, where you used to see the stuff for Airborne. Up until a few months ago, you could go to http://www.airborne.com and still get the Airborne Express page. Now, it redirects to http://www.dhl-usa.com , which is their main page.

violentlee...congratulations you inspired me to make my 3rd cag comic...without further delay...i present!!!
You cared enough to spend your time -- time which could've otherwise been spent playing games or earning a living -- to make a comic about me. I'm touched.
That's pretty much how it went down, two. Except dude was on his way out the door for a work-related meeting, and my tongue wasn't sticking out.

Man, if this hadn't occured during Monday Night Football I would have been in.
I see they have a lot of those titles back in stock for $20-$30. I'm just hoping they clearance them out again.
I too was watching MNF ( My Cowboys were playing, how could I not watch?) Luckily I checked here around halftime and got in on the scraps at least.

Last thing I wanted was to alienate/piss off the CAG community. I should've kept my big mouth shut in the first place. I can admit defeat when I've made a mistake. No need for me to keep attacking those who merely point out my wrongdoing.

Been looking forward to Dirt to Daytona, as its career mode seems really cool. Also never played NFL Street, and excited to play Wario GC after beating it on GBA.

That's why I didn't pay $30 for Wario GCN when it came out. But I think my girlfriend will dig it, and I have a few other friends who liked it on GBA to play with.
It HAS to be way better than Mario Party, in my opinion. I hate that series, and I mean hate.

Here is an email I recieved from them from one of my dvds that got cancelled. Looks like I get $2.42 back on my card from each dvd and I also get a $3.00 coupon for their site...
Dear Devin,
Please accept our apologies for not yet having shipped out the Sci-Fi
Monsters Classics (6-pk/DVD) that you ordered. I
can understand your frustration and apologize for the inconvenience.
We go to great lengths to ship with accuracy, and we take pride in our
fulfillment.
Unfortunately, the item ordered is no longer in stock. Since we deal
in the liquidation of merchandise, products featured on our site tend to
sell out quickly. Still, we should not have taken an order for an item
we are unable to ship. We use an inventory control database to prevent
this from happening, but some error has apparently occurred in the
process. I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience that this error on our
part has caused you.
I have issued credit to your card for the total amount of this item,
$2.42. Please allow eight to ten business days for your bank to process
this transaction.
In addition, I have issued a $3 coupon to your account in hopes of
compensating you for this inconvenience.
Again, we apologize for any frustration or disappointment caused, and
we hope to serve you in the future. Please let me know if I may be of
additional assistance and we invite you to visit our site for new,
excellent values that post daily.
Sincerely,
Isaac M.
Research Team
www.Overstock.com
Devin, though this order did not meet your expectations, I do hope you
will give us a second chance to show you that we are committed to
customer satisfaction and to providing quality products. The great products
mentioned below have all received fantastic reviews from our customers.
Pure Apathy
10-01-2004, 11:28 PM

That happens from time to time with their tracking. I have had orders in the past that showed as shipped from a certain destination, then a few days later showed no information available. They always have showed up so I wouldn't worry, yet.

Overstock ships media mail, meaning last possible priority, it might not come for a few days, it is possible to take 2 weeks.

Your item was accepted at 10:54 pm on October 04, 2004 in SALT LAKE CITY, UT 84199. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.

I orderd something from atlanta once didn't get it for two weeks. It went to Va first then texas then back to Ga Then to gainesville! It was we tard did! I keep looking at the tracking and going " Why in the blue heel is is game in Virgina and tExas! I live in Ga. It came from GA! Geez

Both of my undelivered orders say this when I go to track them with the tracking #
" No information is available for this item. Please contact the sender. "
I wonder what is going on, if I don't get the orders by tomorrow I think I am going to have to e-mail overstock.

It took them since saturday to get my order from Colorado to New Jersey. At this rate, I'll be able to play Wario Ware with Jesus after the second coming.
