Do we know if that is today? Checked but don't see anything right now.

Unless they're running late, don't think so. Last year they were advertised as much as any of the other deals. Process of elimination suggests that today is probably early bird redux or bundle deals at 5pm.

I guess it's possible they're going to do the flash sales at the weekend to maximise how many people can actually access them during the day.
 
So the remaining days which we know of are: 3 flash sales, redux, and bundle deals - which would take us to the 9th December.

We have some evidence there may be an additional last chance to buy day, but no idea what they have planned for the final few days.

I wonder if it's possible they've held something back, that they haven't told us about.

I could be mis-remembering but I'm sure they mentioned multiple music days
 
random inventory check:

"The Garden of Words" Steelbook is back in stock with 74 copies
"Cowboy Bebop" (standard edition) is back with 75 copies

from what I see there's no additional stock added to formerly sold out items in the "Last Chance" pool
(25 OOS/20 in stock, same as yesterday)

As xp_version1 mentioned I think there was 2 music days (I think there was 2 last year too).
Also I thought there was mention or implication of 2 days for redux (although 1 day would be preferable with the shipping, so maybe, again miss remembering).
And I thought there was a twitter post floating around that mentioned there was more last chance stuff (but maybe I missread) implying there would be another day.

Much less exciting than I thought then. I'm not a fan of how everything is split up; we're having to keep items in our basket in hope of that there's something for us in the next day's deals to get up over £50.

At this point, I may just have to take the £3.50 hit, there's a single-digit quantity left of something I want at the moment. Hopefully it'll last until 17:00 and there's something there for me.

I understand why they do it, they want customers to check the website everyday, but I'd much rather they just release everything, or at least most things, all at once.

Keep the flash sales to specific days, but there's no need to have a whole day reveal for vinyl, redux stuff, or bundle deals - just lump it in there with the B1G1F, CE, mystery boxes, and stocking filler stuff. Then again, they probably make it a daily thing so they aren't over swamped with orders to fulfil, perhaps.

Still though, the sale format is not ideal from a customer standpoint.

The cynic in me also suspects they do it to minimize the damage that can be done with the single-use 15/10% codes
 
Well it's been over 3 days since I placed my order and it is still unfulfilled and now half of the items have gone out of stock. I know they are probably backed up a bit with the sale but I know others have not only had theirs dispatched but also delivered ☹️

It's just rubbish AL shipping times during the Christmas period, it's a lottery.

Don't worry about your items going out of stock, the last chance stuff I purchased went OOS and was still shipped. It's likely just the sheer number of orders they're having to deal with.
 
Yeah my large orders from day 1 about 1 hour-ish in still haven't shipped, AllTheAnime just arn't fast at dispatching orders, the company they use for dispatching is used by alot of other big companies and black friday probably slow everything down with the amount of order other campanies used.
But yeah not unsual for very slow dispatches.

Also with MVM stock, im not sure how much they actually keep on hand and whether they order later on demand.

EDIT: Also on a slighty differnt note my MVM mystery bundles have dispatched

last time last chance wasn't updated until 9PM, if not maybe a few mins early but I remember it being pretty on time, to the point I already had everything I wanted to add in my cart from looking at the overall CEs/UEs in stock and only checked that page to see if i missed anything of interest, though i still missed out on Esca ult bc i was fussing around with my cart trying to hit 150 pounds of on sale items. Learned my lesson lol

On that note in stocks have gone from 240 - 246 since last time i checked so I think some more stuff is going to be added today or they're prepping for another one or ig someone cancelled a bunch of stuff but that's at least 7 restocks or new listings considering Snow White went oos in that interim as well. Im a bit suprised they didnt limit copies like they have with mystery boxes but oh well Snow white isn't too missed a loss for me

I think one of the new ones is Terror in Resonance CE not sure what else bc i dont pay attention if im not interested ^^;
