I was on top of it. Deal was dead a few seconds after the shellshocker posted. Oh well, least now I'm forced to get something faster/newer.

Good God... I was able to add to cart at 10:01, OOS by 10:03. Newegg, for shame...

Oh well though, I've been just fine with 128gb, it was just a deal that could not be passed up. I should actually thank Newegg, lol.
 
Quickly selling out is better for us impulse buyers 🙂

True 'dat! I have ZERO need for yet another SSD, even at 256GB (already have four Indilinx 256GB drives here and there). I was going to order one anyways, but I missed out. *WHEW*
 
Well I was looking to get a 120Gb SSD and they all cost around $200, even more for the real good ones. Just hope it doesn't crap the bed on me.

It's been in and out of stock TWICE since the first sell-out.

Like I said, keep refreshing the page if you really want one.

Now that's complete B.S. - I got an order in [edit:confirmed on web and everything] and then got the "Sorry, it went OOS" e-mail [edit:showing 10:03:53 order time]. If they're filling orders after those they accepted and then declined, that's complete and total crap!!!!!

Ow mine went through and it was 10:02:45 AM. Just a matter of seconds. I went through Paypal so it was faster than plggung in all the #'s and names for the credit card.
 
Reminds me of the Black Friday deal last year (or any Woot BoC), back when I was trying to get a 16GB SDHC card for $10 after rebate from Newegg. I was camped out, had the thing already in my cart, just needed to proceed into checkout at the stroke of midnight, which I did. And still missed the deal. I had been considering this deal, but figured that it would probably turn into a stampede, and that helped temper that impulse-buy temptation, so I didn't even try for it. I'm glad that I didn't. 🙂

What? The normal checkout is pretty fast. Newegg's site is faster for me than PayPal's site. Just click add to cart, click check out, type in password and click to continue, type in saved CC security code and click to continue, click on check box at very bottom saying you agree to the sale, click the buy button, done!

Yeah I don't save my CC info on any site.
 
Haha - there is a bunch starting to show up on *bay already. One read "due to the holiday" is the reason for the shipping delay.
 
I forgot until 5 minutes after the sale started, they were all gone. Figures. They must have had a dozen of them, or some stupid sh*t like that.
