Just checked my order 2 x 120GB and it was cancelled too

Thanks again OP

Got the same cancellation email four days after I placed my order.

I had ordered the Freeagent Go Drive 120Gb for $28.99.

Scr*w their 10% offer. They S_ck!!

Don't hate seagate hate the people who ordered more than one, they are the real ones to blame...

Is there no way for the community to hold Seagate responsible for filling their orders? I ordered mine about 30 seconds after the post appeared on FW and they kept taking orders for drives for quite a while after mine. When did those of you who got yours place your orders?

Imagine all the people who have already responded to this thread and multiply that by 5,000 now do tell me a system that can track that in less than 2 hours of passing time.

Are you trying to say that an inventory system can't keep up with a huge volume of orders?
Oh come on!!
Its just a matter of the ordering system communicating each order to the inventory system. When the inventory system runs out of stock, it rejects the order immediately. Seems pretty simple to me, unless a company is too disorganized to keep an accurate inventory count, then its not so easy.

Haven't you ever shopped on-line and they tell you how many are in-stock before you even put it in your cart?

Do you realize the amount of computing power it takes to run a database that large, much less being hit as though it was being DDoS'ed, a lot the time the CPU usage runs from 40% to 80% on a good day.
But I could have sworn you said to them it would be OK with you to cancel if that happened and you would not object right? I mean after all you can't place an order without accepting that as an agreement. So why all the anger? If anything they should be complaining to you about you harassing them for not doing what you said you would

I placed the order for my daughters and mine (120gb) one hour after Iceui2 posted the deal

But it is not OK to send me %10 off, it is like laughing at meor like throwing me a bone like I am a dog.

You are a dog...
