Just a heads up that CowBoom [cowboom.com] is no more and it will now be Best Buy Outlet.
All items on CowBoom's site is OOS. All items are being consolidated to BBO. Currently the sign in system on CowBoom is not working. If you have any issues contact CowBoom directly here [cowboom.com].

Then they changed it to five minutes before cowboom deal of the day started where you could add these items. You had to find the item normally, but it wasn't that bad but you only had a limited time. I only focused on the video game category because it was most profitable. Particularly the wii u with gamepad for $99, doesn't matter about accessories because they go on Ebay $99+ each without it. I would checkout with 10 of these each time they had a deal, more if I used multiple addresses.
Then this news came. Going to miss the site, it was truly great if you knew the inside and out and were constantly checking every day at the correct time.
Will Cowboom continue offering auctions for Best Buy, or will Best Buy use eBay instead, or will Best Buy completely stop offering auctions on their used products?
This totally sucks. I have had very good experience with Cowboom, and always appreciate their excellent return policy and customer support.
Whenever something good changes, it is almost universally for the worse.

Just paid for a PS4 1TB system that I got for $200 and a iPad Air 128gb for $230, won them in auction the day they announced they were closing....great deals, glad I got in on a few deals when I did
1. Ipad 3 (back in 2013) for $219
2. Xbox 360 for $70 (2013)
3. PS Vita $75 (early 2013)
4. Playstation TV $35 (2015)
5. Unbranded windows tablet $49 (2015)
6. Samsung Gear Fit $30 (black friday like deal 2015)
Not to mention all the people I told about these deals and were able to get similar deals. There's no place like cowboom and the Best Buy Outlet is expensive, almost as much as new!
We can use Best Buy rewards, Best Buy coupon and promos, Best Buy credit, and don't have to deal with resellers buying the entire stock right when the servers reset. Perhaps returns can also be processed in-store?
Bad enough that we all fear higher prices on BBO... but nothing is available right now, and who knows when it WILL be available.
Also, I ordered an iPad 3 just before they switched Friday... I'm still waiting a tracking number. Ugh.
