We've seen, taken advantage of, missed out on, and cursed the poorly executed special 50% off sales at certain dealers like Wallbuys but there is one coming up that will last for 5 days and from a long standing dealer. From May 15 to May 20 DX is having a 50% off sale on over 40,000 items! I was chatting with Sandy last night and she told me about it. Looks like she started a thread for it in the commercial sellers spot. here. This sale looks HUGE. You have a week to start saving your pennies and dollars. ;)
I posted a quick blurb in the deal alert thread but figured I'd make another post here to make sure as many folks see it as possible.
There last 50% off five day sale was one that I spent a lot of time trying to take advantage of but failed each time. You had to put $100 exactly worth of stuff in your cart and be one of the first so many people to pay for it. Well it was never me and I tried all five nights and waited up and did the whole song and dance (jitterbug I think it was) but no luck.
Who knows maybe this one will be different. If so it will be the first time I order from them. I have looked at stuff there for years but always found a better deal someplace else.
Well thanks for the heads up both and the sale and so that I expect a good long wait if I do order.
Considering they have an old price for majority of items un-updated for years and over-expensive for others, they might even get near ebay/fasttech prices that way!
What more - you might even get your items before Christmas!
I might check it but knowing 99.98% of their listings is useless crap, keeps my expectations low.
hmm… yeah i remember that stupid total $100 in your cart sale… i didn’t get it either.
hopefully it will be simple as WB’s 50% new year’s sale… REAL SAVINGS on flashlights
I think the items will be carefully picked.
So - please - don’t buy crap, even if it’s 50% off.
But with these numbers - it’s more about making a mistake and honoring the orders - and that’s what BLF is about after all!
i got it twice, but i couldn’t take advantage of the second prize, i pressed pay with credit card by mistake and when i went back the code was missing… only one time is not bad, anyway
