Why was my kindle deal deleted?

Jul 14, 2012 8:48 PM

It followed all the rules as far as I'm aware. It's good at every Office Max in the US?

Could it have been a duplicate? Or did it require Facebook or other social media to activate? Both of those are no-no's...

I didn't see it and I try to follow Kindle deals pretty closely. So, is there any chance that this deal doesn't start until tomorrow (Sunday)? If this is the case, then you posted a pre-deal and you would have to re-post the deal tomorrow.

Nope no facebook or anything you just have to walk into the store and check out. And it's a current promotion because I picked mine up today. @barnabee: Just walk into office max and get a kindle keyboard for $50wifi, $79 3g, and $124 for the 3g without offers. I did post a $5 off coupon I found off google but requires no signing up to anything or anything else.

@dravack: That's a great deal! Why don't you re-post it and see what happens. The worst thing "they" can do to you is delete it again.

I agree with @barnabee, go and repost. Might have been an accidental deletion.

@dravack: your I WANT ONE link takes you to a store locator page, not a product information page. which might be why it was deleted.

@moosezilla: yeah but Office Max doesn't sell kindles online only in-store so was the best option I had really. That or just link to kindle accessories.

@dravack: Only one way I know of to get an official type answer: paging @Thunderthighs
Can you help out here? Thank you.

@moosezilla: Well this one hasn't gotten deleted yet so might of just been an accident or something silly. So long as its up now I don't mind.

Yeah, no idea. Our log shows that things are deleted but now why. Booboo, change of heart, who knows.

@moosezilla: I love the whole "Bewitched" way that this paging thing works. "Paging Dr. Bombay/Thunderthighs, come right away." And then thunderthighs is right here!

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
