There is a single page where they are ALL listed.

Each item has a time it gets put on sale.

Once item is added to basket (like all regular items), you have 15 mins to checkout or it goes back to the pool.

There is a countdown until they go on sale.

There is a limited stock on most items, rule of thumb is the better the bargain, the less the stock. So 50" Plasma TV for £500? There may be 1 or 2. £2 plastic ducks? There could be thousands. It seems things that don't get sold reappears later in the week. ala Avatar DVD last year for £9.99.

The good stuff are "hinted" and not listed. It'll say the department it belongs to and genre.

Electronic - Action.

That is likely to be a computer game.

What I do is in the morning, check out what has been listed, then set an alarm to "bid" (when I say bid, I mean ADD TO BASKET before everyone else) when the item's time is up for sale.

You don't need to stay on the page like a hawk for the whole day, you will know pretty much what is on sale from the start of the day.

Confused

Is this the page?

http://www.amazon.co.uk/b/ref=gb_co...m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_r=1AG15AEXJ7F44YAMCM52

And is the next sale at 12am, coundowns got 30mins on it.

So what a a 50" TV be hinted as?

Raymond Lin · 18 Nov 2012 at 23:38

What I am describing are the lighting deals, which are the best deals.

Craterloads · 18 Nov 2012 at 23:41

Where are they, so at 12am do the lightning deals start?

Do you just click on the black friday icon qhich takes you here: http://www.amazon.co.uk/b?ref_=amb_...rd_i=thankyou-289171994445444-136154403098698

Raymond Lin · 18 Nov 2012 at 23:43

You'll see when it starts.

Search the forum for black friday to find last year's thread to get an idea.

mrk · 18 Nov 2012 at 23:44

Yeah I missed last year's deals, I kept hawkeyeing items at work too but every time I went to get something it was gone :/

Craterloads · 18 Nov 2012 at 23:44

will do, just reading the amazon faq.

Is a sit and wait type of thing?

And will it begin tonight at 12?

Was there actually anything decent last year? I remember Raymond going on about a juicer or something but that's about it.

I think there was some Kenwood mixer thing that was like £75 off (was still like £170 or something).

My juicer was half price from £70 to £35.

I got a Brun Electric shaver half price for £45, self cleaning one.

Modern Warfare for the Xbox for £18 was good, it was a new game that came out 2 weeks prior. I sold it in CEX for £30 when it arrived.

Snap. I'm guessing Black Ops 2 will feature in it this year.

is it best to have 1 click buy enabled?

Are waiting up for the deals Raymond?

Raymond Lin · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:02

1 click enabled gives you No advantage except you lose the 15min cool off time.

Craterloads · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:06

ok, i see now deals are up.

Is it a good idea to book mark what you want? For example i want darksiders 2 on PS3. So if i click on the link and bookmark it. Tommorrow when its live i can just go stright to my bookmark?

Raymond Lin · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:07

Just set your alarm, the deals are time released. The page does not need to be refreshed.

I think you need to buy it from that page, inside that window.

Just above the timer will pop up a button.

Craterloads · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:16

Just thinking by the time you have scrolled to the item you want, could be sold. So better just to bookmark it or leave the page open.

Raymond Lin · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:20

This is the juicer

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0007XHGHA/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00

This is the shaver now, was worth more then.

Craterloads · 19 Nov 2012 at 00:22

Note - A lot of the stuff will be CRAP and a lot of tat. Seriously now, I say 90-95% of the stuff is utter rubbish. i.e. the watches will be a rubbish one. Some TV's are not full HD. Lot of kids toys. Good electronic stuff are few and far between. Do not get tempted to buy something because it is a bargain. Last year I ended up with a juicer (albeit a decent one), decent electric shaver, and Modern Warfare 3 for £18.

Hence, when it drops, add it to basket regardless, you have 15 mins to do your research.

One-Click means you end up over paying unnecessarily.
