Re: Lenovo A6000 Flash Sale Scam
Would you call all other companies in the same boat a SCAM?
Its a tried and tested model, there is a good side and a bad side to it!
Many people get frustrated over the long wait, and suddenly when it runs OOS in a matter of seconds. You could rather have started a thread seeking help from other fellow members to help you with the sale. Just incase if any member gets it in their cart, they could do a COD! Also its very clearly mentioned that it is available in the cart, if one gets hold of it successfully till 6PM.
Well it would be be fine if the sale was over in seconds.
But this sale got over in a Second i repeat 1 second only.
Now i don't see any way how all the ppl who were ordering the phone, order their phone in a second.
(adding to cart was toh out of question when the sale went OOS as soon as the countdown ended for 2pm.)
It might be a wrong way to compare but a train has 120-130 tatkal tickets but it takes even those ticket about a minute to go OOS.
And im pretty sure If lenovo was actually selling the phone it was selling more than 130 mobile phones.
And even i wasnt pretty sure about whether this thing has happened to me only or happened to everyone that's the reason i asked anyone if they could confirm if they got to order their phone.
Also called the CC of FK but they had a standard response ("sir hamara system abhi down hain iss issue ke liye aap 1 Ghante Baad wapus call kijiye")
Anything practically going out of stock in a second seems impossible to me.

Yes i might be wrong in comparing the Flash sale with the tatkal ticketing since i read that Redmi Note 4G went out of stock in just 4 seconds.
But still 4 seconds is 400% of a Second.
Plus im sure that not that many people were excited about buying the phone since the registration for the flash sale were open for full 2 days, which is not the case with redmi phones.
Could please anyone confirm if they got to play their order.
