Hello fellow Britainions, GAME is having a new bargain every hour at http://www.game.co.uk/24x7/

The first bargain was 40 DS Lites at £50 each, sold out within 5 minutes, eek! Check back at 1 PM for the next deal.

 

[Ninchilla]

Is this instore, too, or just on the site?
EDIT: Never mind, just online.

 

[Mama Smurf]

****!

£50?

...****

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Damn...

 

[fresquito]

Do they ship outside UK?

 

[JonathanEx]

****!

£50?

...****

Sounds just like my conversation with McBacon a few minutes ago...

Bacon: did you get a £50 DS Lite?
jonathanex: ****
jonathanex: forgot
Bacon: all sold out
jonathanex: ****
jonathanex: ****

 

[radioheadrule83]

I've already got one but DAMN, I would have had another at that price.

 

[Chibbi Brady]

Damn it, I was actually meaning to look at 12. Bah.

 

[Fallofmart]

BASTARDS

 

[Ghost]

muther trucker.


I already have one, but still.

How am i gonna get lunch before 1pm!?

 

[Ronok]

What else was there so far?

 

[Ghost]

Think that was the first one.

 

[Ronok]

..... Ok cool...... *preys for a cheap copy of NSMB or DSLite*

 

[ichigo kurosaki]

That was a good one. Too bad I was late for it

 

[Fallofmart]

Anychance we know what they are all going to be? I don't think I can check every hour

 

[JonathanEx]

No, they don't say. :/

Why bother doing it in a 24 hour thing though? It'd be better to do 2 seperate 12 hour ones, so you don't have the 3am ones where no-one is there.

 

[scarybore]

£50! **** thats just insane, I would have so bought that. I bet half of the ones sold are going on Ebay.

Oh well, thanks for reminding me of this, had totally forgotten about it.

 

[Ronok]

Oh wait.... That WAS a dsl! >.<;; I thought it said a standard ds. ; ; Noooo.....

 

[Ghost]

No, they don't say. :/

You'd be supprised


Brain Training for a £10 is the next one.


Thinking about it, other than NSMB theres not a lot i want for DS thats out now.

 

[ichigo kurosaki]

It's 13:00 already. Shouldn't there be something else, now?

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Brain Training £10. I'll pass on this one.

 

[Fowler]

50 Brain Trainings for 10 quid!

 

[PowWow]

BRAIN TRAINING £10 GOGOGOGO


Already have it

 

[jerrymaguire]

yeah...got it already...!

 

[The Friendly Monster]

All gone!

 

[Ronok]

Brain Training £10 I clicked on it..... I think I got it..... Now page is going slow lol.... Won't let me check out. v.v;;

 

[Fallofmart]

**** I DONT HAVE AN ACCOUNT

IM gonna miss it

 

[Mama Smurf]

****, I have to be quicker than that? :lol I refreshed constantly and immediately went through and clicked everything as fast as possible and it was already gone! I figured even if I didn't like the game I could sell it for a tenner.

 

[jerrymaguire]

haha...1st click, 50 left.

2nd click, 44 left.

3rd click - 1 left

4th click, website goes down. :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[The Friendly Monster]

Sign up for an account, there are 22 more goes.

 

[Infernal Monkey]

Haha holy shit, that was just after a minute

 

[Fallofmart]

**** it, this stuff is going so quickly I'm not even going to try.

 

[JonathanEx]

All gone... pretty quick, for Brain Training!

Very low stocks for a major retailer here, I'm thinking the low stocks are so people will just buy them anyway at full price when they sell out in 1 min.
Past 24 hours things like these have never been this popular though...

 

[Bo130]

Those are some amazing offers. Hoping to get at least one thing.

EDIT: Lol, website issues now - probably overload

 

[Ghost]

I have one in my basket but it wont let me buy it. :-/


Edit: Now its back to full price.

****s.

 

[scarybore]

Brain Training £10 I clicked on it..... I think I got it..... Now page is going slow lol.... Won't let me check out. v.v;;

Yeah, I'm on the confirm card details bit and it eventually gives a error. Meh stuff that, now it says I have nothing in the cart so I presume I was too slow

 

[Mama Smurf]

Hopefully there'll be some good stuff during the night when we'll have more chance. I really don't think I could have been any quicker, seems like a game won by those with the fastest connections.

 

[Ronok]

WTF am I getting screwed over here? I just went to checkout, entered all my details pressed confirm and got taken to:

Your basket is empty.

That's seriously lame!


EDIT: Yeah happened to someone else as well.... That was bs. >.>

 

[Dabookerman]

TETRIS £10 DO IT DO IT, i hope

 

[LOcKY]

i dont know why but i have a feeling that GAME will be using its statistics on how much their website is getting hits to marketing companies and in turn get them to advertise on their site.

Or am i looking too much into it? because i cant imagine they will get much profit for selling games at the price they are going for.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

NEW SUPER MARIO BROS £20

 

[The Friendly Monster]

NSMB £20, already got this one too.

 

[Nexus Zero]

Sold out already...

 

[Bo130]

Sold out:lol

 

[JonathanEx]

It was less than 20 seconds for this to sell out. F'ing hell.

 

[LOcKY]

HOYOLCRAP NSMB on SALE NOW!.. lol 30 sec and its sold out... i refuse to believe they are really selling stuff!! just an excuse to get as many hits on their website

 

[The Friendly Monster]

That's ridiculous. I'm hoping for some Gamecube loving.

 

[scarybore]

Oh for ****s sake checkout problem again and they are all sold out, seems like you have to be on of the luckiest bastards alive to actually buy anything :lol

 

[Ghost]

This is total bullshit, i added it to my basket at 14:00, clicked checkout, ive already saved my payment info so i just had to enter the security number and click order, that took about 10 seconds, and i still didnt get one.


I call scam on this.
