Worst Black Friday ever

Yeah, I was about to order it, then saw the comment on here, aread right through the notes. I decided to pay a bit more for it instead and collected one in person. At least I know I have it then :smiley:

pfft £239.99!! I'll take my chances with Rakuten...

​Ah OK, that will teach me to read the small print in future. Might check out the Amazon deal shortly and if its any good will consider cancelling the Rakuten order.....

Wind Waker bundle coming up on Amazon at 7, for anyone looking for that


previous deal from a few months ago, not sure it will be this low

Yes but it depends how you read it and understand it "supplied as required" does not mean you get it without asking. It is Pixel Electronics after all, nothing is straight forward with this alleged teenager in his bedroom / Ratuken Seller. Most report not receiving adaptor in the dodgy reviews.

Many order without realising it is Euro version also. It should be clearer really.

It does say at the bottom of the description, so they would supply you the adapter in the uk?
Brand new
12 months manufacturer warranty
EURO unit - UK 3-pin plug adapter supplied as required
Tracked postage

If they did that would be cool

Maybe we could blag an amazon price match? Tis the season etc etc

It was out of stock before the deal went live at 5pm, so was greyed out straight away. The VIP access people got their limited supply

Ah yes, it was......guess I'll be buying the adaptor then. Thanks for the heads-up :neutral_face:

CON

This is what I am saying they are advertising deals for 5pm and then is no stock. Not even a pre order

i rang very and the guy did a stock check...sadly none left.

Yes it is all very Argos-ish behaviour from Very, which will unfortunately give them an Argos-ish reputation. One tiny nuggat and beam of light is Mario Kart 8 game is £29.99 on Amazon today, I got it for just under £26 provided by GameSeek via flubit, if any one wants to try that.

And also this £12.99 deal on the Mario Amiibo End Level Display is a little more consolation http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/amiibo-end-level-display-12-99-game-2335458?p=26599539

Spoke to customer service about Black Friday they said people are adding the items to there baskets before the deal goes live and then checking out the point I made is one is sold out and can't be added to the basket so the not all deals are live and valid. Guy tried to argue stating there must be to much users online

Its back on at 5pm

This deal was non existant even in the morning when I checked.and I have a very account.
And now its expired.

Also annoying knowing that the prices will probably plummet after Christmas and again when Nintendo's next console comes out :disappointed:

I believe my basic pack deal with SSB at £179.99 is still available. I was hoping for better today but it looks like it might not get any better.

I checked rakuten last night, wasn't anything cheaper than any other place

I got one for £207 from Rakuten using a 10% discount code (BLACK10) - this worked out at £207 in total. Not sure if that helps? Possibly 8% cashback through Quidco too if it's not declined...

Is it worth getting one for Mario kart? All the other games look garbage

Black friday is rubbish this year, cannot believe there are no WII u deals, not everyone wants a ps4 or xbox one.

Is this any good? http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B017XZ6YOU?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_image_3&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

Damn, wasn't sure whether the deal was decent at 1.30am when I had my VIP slot so didn't bother and now its out of stock

I might have to resort to buying a European version.... I expected more from Amazon with the Wii U.

Worst Black Friday ever

When will people realise Black Friday is just a marketing ploy. Get people in the frame of mind they are going to spend money. And what do they do?

There's got to be another half decent Wii U deal around somewhere. I was really hoping to get one sub £200 during Black Friday.

Expired now. Can't believe this really turned out to be the best Wii U deal so far.

saying out of stock now (225 sold) :disappointed:

TTypicall had a VIP slot but wasn't waitng up till 1.30am,

Yeah, showing as unavilable for me who didn't get VIP.

Just what I was waiting for great price thanks op!

All the deals are on the 3DS but even then its not as good as it appears given it is old models and quite often are including games that can be bought cheaply. I don't expect much deals for the Wii U tomorrow. Night, good luck folks, see you tomorrow :smiley:

Black friday is a major let down this year looks like that is going to be the best deal!

I have to get up in 5hrs, close to calling it a night. This psychological torture of consumers is disgusting. Anyone else feel like they are being held hostage. Sounds like Guantanamo Bay, okay its not, but this is not great is it.

Wish it was more than £30 off the usual selling price.

Argos website terribly slow, usual form for them. Smyths website nothing to see. Game is above RRP, and John Lewis don't have any Wii U console stock. Just put the kettle on for a black coffee.... long night ahead I fear :disappointed:

Damn

How do you register for vip ? I've got an account but nothing is coming up

The things we do for these kids:)

yeah went live 10 mins ago. Just some stuff same price as amazon / tesco etc

Is their stuff live already?

arggh i knew i should have done the vip thing, going to see if argos have any wii u deals and then call it a night, nearly spent £300 on tvs i dont need tonight already

might have clicked the vip invite email earlier tho..

Just bought thanks very much been after one for soms xmas. PS im not a VIP member either (i dont think ) lol

Now to look for game deals! Waiting on Argos

The Mario Wii U and Luigi Wii U, Premium Bundle are 2 good games any new Wii U owner will want anyway. If that goes under £200 could be a good option to.

Doesn't start till 7am for non VIP

I'm after a Mario maker one so heads up if anyone sees one! Let's all get the match sticks ready for tomorrow

You just had to click on the link - it's been advertised on the site for a few days, just had to register for a slot. Nothing to do with your account standing or anything.

Is there any chance this will be available to muggles? I've just set up an account...

Actually I don't have VIP, just a regular Very a/c so that takes away that option. Really just want to get this Wii U bundle bought then I can get off to bed. Argos black friday starts at 1am.... could be a long night?

No it doesn't :/

you have to have VIP slot and be logged in

I know I'm not sure whether to wait

oh I have VIP. not sure if should snap it up or not.... will we see an improvement on this elsewhere? And if get this on Amazon, have the option of cancelling with no hassle should something better appear.

Yeah says £279 for me, I can't see anything about VIP access, I've never used Very before.

It's live, just bought it. Need to have an account with them according to the wife.

CBA to register, let alone order from Very, will see what argos come up with in half an hour

my vip is due 1;15am

mind you it does say delivery 6 working days ATM

ah that explains it then, is this the only wii u bundle on offer?

Still £279 here too

£279.99

Yes I did register for VIP access

Not bad... queue amazon price match.

edit - says £279 on site...

Does the DL not work?

http://www.very.co.uk/nintendo-wii-u-mario-kart-8-hard-bundle-with-splatoon/1460708418.prd

that just goes to main page

£279 for me

I can't see it either, not live yet? Is this to happen at 1am or something?

I can't find the deal on the site?
