But it's back to "unavailable" no? I can't check right now but my script stopped acting up
They did this on purpose, I swear.
Next time they change it to "baguette"
BaguetteSoon
A few hours ago they switched it to "comingSoon" for a few minutes and then back again. And 10 minutes ago the API was acting up, got a 500 on the availability endpoint between UTC13:39 and 13:43
They even added it on the website:
Ouch, sorry about message bomb I didn't handle API errors very well and it look like OVH just re-deployed their API endpoints in EU region, hence change in response, hence message flood. Should be fixed now.
But is re-stock finally happening?
KS-LE-1 32GB 3x480GB SSD is available right now at RBX
Don't think so, I already said I marry someone if I get my KS-A delivered.
That would be never, ever.
i will marry too if they give me my orders and this is not a lie.
So I managed to get my hands on a KS-2 order, in Poland Warsaw, after days of refreshing and refreshing, created account, placed order, added PayPal, money held and I could not be more excited waiting for the manual order review process to be approved and get my hands on a sleeper build!
Lo and behold, the next day, they email me with a order cancellation notice, citing "incomplete profile or billing method does not add up". I have purchased servers from all major providers using the very same PayPal account, have over $100/month going for servers and yet they pull such a fast one on me since they do not want to bother giving away the server it seems.
To be honest, the support was extremely rude, started a live chat and got a single line response maybe your profile is incomplete, and ends chat, just like that, so abruptly.
The only field not filled out is the postcode - which is optional in the form, and in my country of residence does not exist so there were no problems with the profile either, but it seems they really want to keep my server for themselves
The "baguetteSoon" seems to have only affected the KS-A.
My other hunts are still running.
Coming soon is another way to say "out of stock" now...?
I think it has always be like that, isn't it?
I recall it is Soon Available...something
My best guess, most bots started flooding the OVH API with orders.
So they reverted the change.
Seems like the KS-A order that i've paid yesterday has fallen, they refunded.
The only one is still up without cancellation email.
EDIT:
Just realized this on the active order:
Seems like it can be cancelled as well
@Neon Does your order shows this?
Same here, everything is cancelled from my side KS-EA + KS-E
KS-LE 4,5,6 Has been restocked
KS LE 1, 2, 3 , A, B, C, D, and E seem to have been removed from the list.
Yeah, not visible on the web, but still available in catalogue & availability API
I don't think the sold out servers will be restocked.
I asked my OVH account manager and they said they don't know when the servers will be available again. They even asked me to provide the specifications I need so they can try to find an alternative
Since Octave mentioned restock of the LE servers during the upcoming weeks, I guess that this is over for the moment, and that the next time frame to get LE or flash sales will be for Christmas/New Year. That is too bad, because I will be back hibernating by that time ...
So, that's it folks? Party is over and we need to clean up and take out the trash? Switch the lights bots off?
Oh, I have no idea. With OVH anything can happen anytime. So, I think it can still be good idea to keep watching. But it's also possible the LE and Flash sales return with different references or price, I don't know.
Some intern who usuall> @SteveMC said:
I kind of remember that two or three years ago the KS-LE-x of that area was restocked out of the blue after the sales had ended, for a very short while, like a swan song, but I'm not sure if my memory can be trusted.
