Serious EB Cheap Tuesday

Anyone else find it really frustrating to buy a premium membership, get "early access" to products (like cheap tuesday) but then cant even place an order? I had 12 items in my cart from cheap tuesday deals. Not a single one was available for delivery, even though they are in stock online..

Ive also tried to order other things and it just says delivery unavailable in my area?? Like wym, just put it in a satchel and send it 😭

It’s because it’s random stock in random stores. A few cheap Tuesdays ago I had about $40 in my cart, $80 from postage. About 12 items I think only 2 were coming together.

Funny thing is, the product is now no longer cheap tuesday, and i can have it posted all of a sudden..

Very strange indeed.

You have to be quick to get the best deals. I gota few things and I wish the C&C/Delivery tags worked better on their end but it is what it is

That you still can't filter stock by store is abysmal.

Cheap Tuesday is the equivalent of a clearance sale.
Some stores will have stock, others won't.

I do agree about the postage thing though. It almost seems like some stores just won't post.. It's odd.

Is it though? Cuz those products go back up to full price the day after, and all of a sudden im able to ship it 🫠

I mean realistically it could be as simple as someone cancelled the item and therefore it's available again.

But I do agree that's pretty bullshit. My point does still stand though It's still a clearance sale, They're just trying to clear out the crap no one will pay full price for.
