So...

Seen the banner -- HUGE DISCOUNTS, BLACK WEEK... blah blah

these HUGH Discounts are.... £7 - £10 off 80% of items on the list and the rest is like 2-5%


Sorry OCUK but your normal Weekly deals are better than this, Its UTTERLY Pathetic.

The ONLY deal i would say is worth anything is the 40" monitor one.
 
Okay, so the deals might not be particular good, but to say that they're pathetic smacks of an entitlement complex on your behalf.

Surely you understand the whole point of marketing like this is to whip people up in to a buying frenzy?

It's like you think they sell us stuff as a favour or something.

My only dissapointment is the u2515h isn't on offer. Fancied another couple of them :(.

Why would patheticly reduced prices whip people up into a buying frenzy?

Good discounts such as 20% would work. But not 5%
 
If you don't like the deals, don't purchase. It's really quite simple.

10% discount is pretty good, no? It's not like they are forced to reduce anything at all...
 
i'M STILL SEARCHING FOR THE ITEMS WHICH WHICH WERE GOING TO HAVE £1,000 OFF THEIR PRICE? Cant' see anything with more than a £100 off????

Black Friday section at present just has ONE SSD deal active in it, around 9am Thursday around 100 more products will appear in this section with upto 50% discount and upto £1000 knocked off the price. These deals will appear in the following url around 9am Thursday:

But it's money off... that's the bit you're not getting. There's nothing "pathetic" about that, you just seem to feel like you're entitled to more because of the "Black Friday" frenzy.

If there's something you want, and its price gets dropped by 5%, then you're saving money either way.

not listed on the black friday page.

Biggest discount is £250 I've found so far.

I want my £1,000 off item as advertised! (preferably something that was £1,010 to start with ;))

It's not disagreeing, it's the entitlement on display. There's nothing wrong with "I wish the discounts were bigger". The problem is that he appears to be foaming at the mouth about how they're not good enough for him.

I completely agree, just couldn't think of anything better to come up with. I'm struggling today.
