Sale issues: What now?

There were several items I was very interested in buying during the online sale. Some of them were unique and fell into categories that had significant discounts advertised.

But... when the online sale started and I went to look for those items, none of them were available. I tried searching for them individually as well as looking in the category that they had previously been in but they weren't able to be purchased online, so I assumed that they had been sold out and that was that...

Today when the regular website opened back up, almost all of them were back again, available for purchase and not sold out after-all. But the sale is over and there are no discounts anymore.

I don't think that there was anything shady involved, as there were lots of problems with the website and I am assuming that these items just never got properly loaded in due to the website problems that were going on during the sale.

My question is, is there any chance of being able to buy them with the discounts that they had when I should have been able to buy them during the sale but couldn't because of your website issues?

I'm asking here because I am likely not the only person that this sort of thing happened to and I bet other people would also like to know the same thing.

Thanks!
 
It's a very good observation but I believe they're not taking anymore orders so perhaps the site's database has glitched?

Would be a shame if you were right.... I wanted a hi power so bad lol.
 
Yeah, there was a problem with Reliable's database during first few hours of the online sales, it was only showing a fraction of items, the problem was discovered and fixed a few hours later.

I had the same issues around 7:30 pm Saturday but was able to find what I was looking for by doing a word search.
 
Sale is over guys. I think everybody and his neighbours would have bought a HP, an sx3 and an x-bolt had there been infinite stock. But there wasn't. So move on, there will be other sales.
 
When the online store opened they had problems, after a few complaints they got it sorted out and I was able to make my purchases without a hitch.
By 8pm PST everything fine for me...
 
There was a gun for sale on the EE that I really liked, but someone else bought it. I wanted it though. What’s going to happen in my situation?

In your situation, you're going to make an irrelevant and completely useless post on a forum and look like an idiot. Thanks for your contribution to this thread.

Hi @Loosethoughts, unfortunately all the high powers went really quickly in-store. It was one of the hot items for the day. Thanks for participating in the sale, keep posted for some other cool deals coming at the end of the month!

I'm sorry for bringing it up again @Reliable.
 
After discussions with some people who had sconcerns about products not being shown during the sale, then being listed again, we have gotten to the bottom of this. As some of you may know, we offer consignment services for used firearms. Due to the fact we don't own those, and don't set the pricing on them, consignment firearms were not offered during our customer appreciation sale. To try and prevent any confusion about why some used firearms would have been discounted, and some were not, we chose to de-list all those consignment products from our website for the duration of the sale. We hope this answers any remaining questions. Once again we'd like to thank everyone for participating in the the event, we had a lot of fun reading everyone's entries for our sale name, and seeing lots of faces new and familiar in the store during the sale!

The Reliable Gun Team!
