With Amazon directly yes...both products checked and both warranties with manufacturers lasting the full term so no issues there

The BBC News channel did a massive story on this earlier, was nothing but a 5 minute advert for Amazon.

The exact item you want isn't on offer, so the whole thing is a joke? Not everything goes on sale and yes, obviously the newer, more premium things are less likely to be. As with most sales, you pick through and look for some bargains though, of which there were a few.
Not so exciting, but I'd been thinking about the Withings Blood Pressure monitor, to go with the Withings Body+ scales and Sleep Tracker Matt I have from them, and it was reduced from £89 to £63, so took the plunge.
Kind of want the Shark Vacuum that's on offer but only because it's on offerour Dyson is ancient mind
I bought that one, £112 for a shark vacuum was a pretty decent deal. Got new carpets being fitted and th older Hoover wasn’t up tot the job..

An advert for Amazon mentioning the Worldwide strikes by workers wanting better working conditions?
Soldato
No, an advert for the two days of Prime thing. Nothing about any strikes.
The headset was simply an example. I tend to go for the more premium items so I am always left wanting.
Soldato
Yes and I would suggest it's a little naive to expect the newest and best stuff to be what they discount. That doesn't make it a joke...

I am glad it's over, I keep finding things that i want yesterday, I kept buying things every hour!

Easy to check: https://uk.camelcamelcamel.com/
The two items I bought were the cheapest they have ever been...

That link should be so well known by now that it shouldn't need a mention. When people say it's a good deal I take it that they already checked it against camel to know that it is, not that they think it is base on the numbers on the Amazon Page.
For example the PS/LR bundle it was listed as £120 down to £70, when I know, even without checking, the normal price is £100. So the savings is £30, not £50 as it was suggesting, but one click on camel will tell you the same. So that was a no brainer purchase, software is something I need and useful. It also seldom gets discounted either apart from this and Black Friday.
I will buy another come Black Friday and stack them.
..but it doesn't capture prime/black-friday/daily deals themselves does it ? nearly opened a thread on this ...
equally when amazon talk about deals they are not constrained by X% cheaper than average price over last 90days - is it ? that bricks and mortar shops use
hotuk is more valuable to see previous deals .. slightly different models that might be better value .....
It might miss the 'prime day' deals from its tracking due to the way they're set up for prime accounts but it normally tracks the discounts from all other sales events that are just straight sales / lightning deals

There's a Chrome plugin that puts a graph directly into the Amazon product listing. Much easier than camel Fairly sure that marks lightning deals too.
