They pumped the prices of everything since yesterday by about 20%, still cheaper but worth noting.

Not the ones I'm interested in, thankfully.

There was a bug in the system recently whereby VAT wasn't being added until checkout. So everything appeared to be 20% cheaper. They corrected that last Monday as far as I know.

Code's not working for me yet although the countdown has stopped and it says sale is now on.

I know one of the titles i was thinking of getting was £6 on the site when i looked at it a few days before,it's £10 now.

Aaand the site's crashed. Fatal error.

jackranderson · 02-25-2021, 05:03 PM

Fatal error.

Network site ****ing up during a sale. Who could’ve predicted that?

Dallasnorthforty · 02-25-2021, 05:04 PM

What a joke.

grahams76 · 02-25-2021, 05:05 PM

What a surprise. Why they thought giving everyone a day to prepare for a 4-hour window would work? Having said that, there can't be that many people trying to make a purchase, surely.

dbvsh · 02-25-2021, 05:06 PM

Site popped back up for me but still claims the code is invalid. Helpful!

grahams76 · 02-25-2021, 05:06 PM

Voucher code is invalid.

Everyone apart from Network themselves.

They know their website crashes on high traffic, so what do they do? Announce a flash sale.

"The voucher code is invalid". I love it.

And then forget to activate the discount code. Classic.

grahams76 · 02-25-2021, 05:13 PM

From Twitter: "Apologies Andrew, we currently have unprecedented levels of traffic. Our IT team is looking into it, thanks for your patience. We'll be back shortly."

"Unprecedented". Imagine it's like the Glastonbury website the moment tickets go on sale.

McCrutchy · 02-25-2021, 05:15 PM

The best part is that the sale is off-hours, so few if any from Network are aware of it not working at the start, and it will be fixed more slowly.
