2 minutes left and I can’t check out

Also not a fan of having VAT added at checkout, after I’ve already price compared against websites without factoring in VAT

I’ve literally spent the afternoon researching titles hope something comes of this

15min? 🤣

I started filling my basket one hour before the sale started, and finished checkout 1a.m. at night, total 7 hours... 😴

The Network release is atrocious - one of the few discs I returned as unwatchable - but has good extras (I kept the cheaper DVD for those). The fully restored TT release is a stunner in all the right ways and the only good transfer it's ever had on home video. Check out the user reviews of them for more detail.

What an absolute shi'iteshow.

Been able to get back on the website, now everything in my basket is back up to full price

Modman · 02-26-2021, 04:06 PM

BS everything in my cart has gone back to full price!

Network you don't even honour the tosh statements you put on your lousy website.

Elliot Coen · 02-26-2021, 04:07 PM

Well, looks like the prices have gone back up now. I hope the 5 people who managed to place an order this sale enjoy the films

fatboyslim142 · 02-26-2021, 04:08 PM

At least I an order in for this:

Modman · 02-26-2021, 04:15 PM

The moral of ther story is get your order in during the middle of the night.

Indiana Jonezzz... · 02-26-2021, 04:21 PM

Amazingly, I just managed to get an order in for 2 items at 5:04pm, took a while though!

I did, at 2am last night, this was a few last minute (last two hour) items, you don't happen to work in Network CS?

I assume BOTH items increased in price? During their previous offer/sale thing last month, both items I had in my basket went back to full price as I was in the process of checking out due to Paypal taking a long time to load. I didn't realise they'd gone back to full price till after I'd paid.

I quite like it. I picked up the DVD before the BD was released, and it looks good; lots of Riviera locales.

If you enjoy other ITC series from that era, I'm sure you'd get something out of it. Probably closest in style and feel would be The Persuaders.

Not a bad idea, but it was busy yesterday evening and needed to sleep, and I need to research titles before ordering. If the flash sale had been limited to a couple of hours as intended I would have struggled to manage.

No, I got both items at the discounted price. I checked as I was completing the order and it was confirmed in the confirmation e-mail. Not sure how I managed that after 5pm, but it seems to have worked. I though that maybe once you’re checking out, it keeps the price locked in, but then you said that didn’t happen with your previous order, so I have no idea.
