HOT! Free Beats Wireless Headphones!

[Yammer]

Some of my orders show the discount in the account

Interesting, so you have some and some?

[as2]

its people that order 1000 that ruin it for everyone else

It's people that spread these that ruin it for everyone.

Heard of someone who ordered a 1000 of them. Not a chance getting honored. Wouldn't waste my time on this.

I hear where he's coming from. I'd rather have a one in a million chance of making $150k than a 5% chance of getting a pair of decent headphones for $10.

Ever heard of lottery tickets??

Powerball/megamillions vs. Scratchoffs...

I placed 3 orders, 1 well before the others, with regular shipping, and 2 later, with next day shipping. Originally I only received a confirmation for the first, but overnight I got email for the other 2. Last night, none were appearing in my accounts online, but now all are. The first order reflects the discount while the other 2 do not. They may be adjusting the orders with next day shipping first, and will deal with the others after.

I'm just curious how does it work?! When are deals posted to the main site and when not??

I understand that if this deal would be posted chances the deal should be honored are far less likely. Still I don't get the line when deals are or aren't posted.

This has been discussed in the HT claim thread. Deals are posted by humans, 2 in particular, so it goes by their discretion and mood.

Similar, but I think they are adjusting second and further orders to full price. The first order I placed on the first account shows the discounted price, next two are full price. First on the second acct (which was placed after those three, and with expedited shipping) is showing discounted price.

I don't have emails showing the discounted price but that wouldn't stop me from disputing.

Interesting. I made 3 separate accounts, 3 seperate address, 3 seperate names. Paid with 3 seperate cards and one through PayPal.

It depends on a ton of things:

(in no order)

1) The kickback dan and co receives from affiliate links (think: insanely heavy leaning towards amz deals)
2) The popularity of the item:
    a)on ddf and/or
    b)on the "other" blogs
3) Exactly as @as2 and @ben89 said, only dan and jj have the nuclear codes so it's entirely up to them (think: sports related items, star trek  )
4) As of late, there's been a few complaints about the type and frequency of deals (too many items of too little value or items of value to a very small demographic) so the vetting is extra cautious these days.
5) The  availability of the item, not to be confused with #2, something can be extremely popular but if it's targeted to 5 people it's pointless sending it out to the masses 

PS - IMHO this hasn't had an official update since 7/10 so I think things are changing anyway (or they are still busy with the new site)

14 years of learning when deals have a chance of being honored (or being compensated) and when they don't.

Ohh a response from the king himself!

So you are saying no one will have success in any way pulling it through?!

Your kidding?! When deals like these go viral and the deal last for more than 2 minutes, the order quantity is usually more than the manufacturer ever produced, in this case Beats.
