Any that auto opened still got it, but it's still 23 people out of a lot of orders so low chance you would get the credit.
Thanks @VirMach for the generosity!
I didn't got it but congrats for the lucky ones who got the $5 or $10 credits
I am surprised this giveaway doesn't take up 20 pages and 500 comments unlike a certain thread.
It is kinda sad that only 24 out of 40 didn't create ticket though, that's 60%. I always thought there are more people who are more patients and wait for the event to be over.
If I got the 8.88$ Ryzen deal, I could resell it to MJJ at 88.8$
It would be another fine day for Capitalism
You're the first and only person to actually follow those instructions, with the second one having done so about 15 minutes ago. As a result you pretty much got it fixed pretty quick as you mentioned, in front of all the others and you know what, I'll let you do a spin for your special. Provide order ID quoting this message (only @hk5354) and I'll do a spin on your BF Special which we're not usually doing.
@Virmach Brilliant job at keeping the flash sale going, with what appeared to be zero glitches this side of The Pond.
Thanks for the business card win but save on your (extortionate) postal costs and give as a pressie to your favourite nephew/niece, or someone deserving.
Was sad due to the lack of multi-IP but still I managed to"refresh" some of my other VPSes and overall I ended up with about the same amount of active services.
Take Care.
I got 5$ of store credit. Thanks VirMach.
I did open a ticket during the flash sale and I then felt embarrassed because of it, so I closed it at that time within a minute.
It was my mistake to order without turning off the VPN and I lost the deal.
However, I waited and got a better deal.
I'm thinking of doing a willy wonka golden ticket meme with the business cards so you might still want to redeem yours. This is the most clear hint I've ever given out.
got 5$! thanks @VirMach, look forward to your next flash sale
I go and install a server and look at all the banter I miss.
I don't even have open tickets, I think I deserve the 10 usd LOL
Similar, still keeping the same amount of my accounts thanks to the mediocre FS of this year.
Btw, why there are so many unsavory Buffalo deals?
I don't even order any services.
I think I deserve 10 slaps on the wrist LOL.
I see VirBot ended sale with a legendary $8.88 bang! Thanks for that VirMach and even more thanks for sticking to the "new tradition" at this point, I guess :-)
I really hope someone active from him got the $8.88 however, not that everything was sniped for resell
Personally haven't bought anything from Flash sales this year, mostly because the stuff I wanted was when sleeping and I am waiting for Ryzens, I trust that the curse will be broken one day and they will go full blaze production international ready.
There is less and less people complaining that something went wrong or money charged, but no service... not even one post with WHMCS ON FIRE, IT'S FINE DOG - I guess volume of deals was little lower... but still I must say this sale went better that previous.
Also not many people shitting here, only few selected spam theirs RYZEN UPGRAD HOW WHEN GIVE WHEEL? Few I said? There is mostly one >:D
Thanks for the sale VirMach, I hope in spite of everything happen you had some times for the actual family/friends holidays there and did not spent 159815898598 hours at office.
Happy Christmas (

Unfortunately, they do look mostly sniped. I'm investigating it further before I say anything though.
(edit) Oh wait I said something.
WTF?!!!
It> @VirMach said:
wow, It is my honor that be the first one and so amazing to get the spin. It is a great Christmas gift for me
Thank you so much!

Yeah, it looks like we're going to have another one of those situations where we have to enforce our policies strictly. Most of these, not just the $8.88 but $9.88 and so on were sniped. It's a very obvious pattern, by trying too hard not to be obvious (orders from Albania, Argentina, Andorra, American Samoa.)
Many if not all using VirMach IP addresses on their order, as in VPN or using a server to place the order.
All of them are using the same affiliate, perhaps the creator of the bot or maybe it was all some strategy posted by some affiliate.
Worst case it's the same person and he was so greedy he had to also self-refer himself which would end up being pretty hilarious and easy to deal with once I look into that further.
I'm just trying not to have any false positives before I absolutely decimate these accounts (not really, they'll just get a refund and a warning to migrate off) so I'm running it through other logs as well.
The hardest part will be figuring out how to award these slots to others.
Only advice I can give to people around here is to not try to purchase any of these unofficially because you might be royally screwed in a couple days.
Did anyone here actually legitimately get the $8.88, $9.88, $10.88, $11.88 specials? It will be very helpful if you speak up now with your order IDs.

you deserve one FAT32
You could give a $8.88 slot to FAT32 I don't think anyone would argue that ...

The great $ X.88 controversy begins.

I actually offered something I personally think reasonable for it on VirMach's PM (Definitely not for free), if not it will be unfair for others...
I nominate @FrankZ because he has been eyeing on those 4.34 deals for a while, and definitely deserve it especially with those train and bus numbers.
yay so that means I still have a slight chance to got the 8.88 deal
order #1344440
I wish to get the $8.88
