interesting, I wonder if they are doing that for the other deals?

I'm on of the people that tried (and failed) to get the original promotion from Amazon on Saturday. Just got an email from them saying if you order by 11/14, you can still get the $100 promo code. Not sure if this is only for those that ordered and then canceled after not getting the promo.

I tried to get the deal for $100 promotional code for future purchase when buying the Xbox 360 Arcade for $199.99, went through the checkout, and then found that I didn't get the lightning deal, even though I clicked right away and followed instructions....I cancelled the order, but just got this in my e-mail, I know a lot of people were in the same position as me....

todays deals sucked !

I ordered 5 seconds after the gold box opened and missed it, so I canceled. Did you email them and receive this response or did they send it to you unsolicited?

Showing full price for me.

Yup...got the same email...very considerate of Amazon. Might not jump on it though cause I made the same order and it went through at 3pm EST when my 9am order didn't pass.

Mods can move/merge/delete as they see fit. Just wanted to give a HU, as I know there were a *lot* of unhappy people about the Cart shennanigans.

I see myself and some other posted this at the same time, and my thread came later --- please delete, it doesn't appear that I can....

Nevermind! I got the email too:

I'm not sure if this applies to everyone or to those who ordered and canceled.
