Did this occur when you were processing your order (check out)? I personally am not partaking in the deal, but placing things in the basket to play. :)
I do know the site is as slow as molasses.

hope this works my kid reads a book a week.

Did you get an order placed? <hope so>

luck I guess

Bugaboo! :( Looks like their whole site just went down.

Did ANYONE get an order placed?

I was finally able to add an item to my cart and it placed 5 of the same items in the cart.
Now it is giving the service temporarily unavailable message.

I kept refreshing at each screen until I got it to go through. After I entetrerd my info on the final confirmation page it changed the price and said "Customer Service 80% Off Cart is not eligible for promotion -$0.00 "

I just tried and this is what I am getting.

Oops! The promotion code you entered is expired.

THis is what I got. Bummer, that would have been really really awesome.

From my understanding this is now dead, but gonna leave it here for a bit, just in case someone gets lucky. <fingers crossed for ya>

Almost 400 views here on GD, did ANYONE GET AN ORDER Through????
I know of other people getting the deal to go through, but don't know of any GD'ers. Please say yes!

I am still trying. It keeps telling me that the site is down but as soon as I find out I will post.

Some tricks of the trade are: refreshing the screen when you get an error message (But DON'T do this if you are at 'submit order' area) and also when you get an error message try hitting the back button once and try again.

I got it to work. Hoping the orders aren't cancelled!


Item Total $61.94
Customer Service 80% Off -$49.55
Shipping $4.96
Tax $1.22

ORDER TOTAL$18.57

The code worked a/o 8:15pm. I kept having to refresh the page at each step during the checkout process but it went thru. Got a confirmation email so i'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I am VERY glad to see that 2 Gd'ers got in. I am hoping others did too.

woot!
I got mine to go through, and I made it 2-3 day deliver for only a dollar more, so will see if it actually goes through!

Anyone having any luck.... I have 3 items in my shopping cart and still trying to get a few more things....:D This is hilarious I can't see everyone who is here only that their are 45 of us:eyepoppin not near as may as before ... :shock:

I finally gave up. It let me get all the way to entering the credit card info, waited, waited, waited and then "our site is down...." Refreshed and tried 3 more times but couldn't get it to go through.

Thanks for the OP anyway.

Here is what is coming up on mine which is confusing me

It took it off but looks like it added it back on.

Is that on the order page? Or your order confirmation email? Or before you submit the order?

It said to confirm order or cancel order right below the totals

I just got it to go through with the 80% off but when I hit confirm order it gave me an page unavailable. Should I hit refresh? I dont want to be charged twice.

This is all I get now :( and it doesn't budge!!!

Yep, their site just officially went completely down now. Sorry to those that didn't get in. Glad for those that did. Keep us posted on whether you get order cancellations and if and when orders do arrive.
My fingers are crossed.

I was seconds too late for my good order. I did pick up Heroes season 2 at 9:26. It kept saying 'server down'. I hit retry several times. It never said order completed, but I had 2 comfirmations for the same order in my inbox.

If I was just a LITTLe faster, I would have got Ariel, Heroes season 1, and a book I've been wanting for 30.06 (.01 shy of the $25 FS)

Their site is back up and the code is not working!!!! Great for those who were able to get it to work :yup: .... ;) ..... I sure hope they don't cancel your orders....

^ I wanna know too?

No cancelation for me as of yet. Knock on wood they don't cancel it.

Hi Everyone. Just a quick update: I got an email this evening around 9:45ET saying that my order has been shipped, see below. Since today is a holiday, i guess it wouldn't have shipped out yet, so i'm still crossing my fingers i'll still get my I Love Lucy Series Box Set. Good luck to all.
