whats up with the zebronics mp3 player and dinner set? oscillating between available and sold out 
I ordered an LG Fridge today. After 3 hours I got an Order cancelled message.
Reason:
"You made an excellent choice by deciding to purchase one of the top selling products on Flipkart. However, due to high demand for this item and in order to provide all customers an equal opportunity to avail this great deal we had to cancel the following items in your Order."

Its really NO Sale that is happening, just mind wash the customer into believing he/she is getting huge discounts and put the damn item in cart and later sent an apology mail saying that the item is not available. The site is tempting you to do an impulse purchase, nothing but mind games, looks like FK is winning and customers losing! Just look at the number of cancelled sales and the money in their coffers, the interest on the money hoarded for say "x" period of time!
Customers really need to take a different route, atleast till this so called #BigBillionDay is over!

Its load balancing. FK already crashed twice. So they disabled features which are not really necessary. And yes, ranting on reviews is not the way to do it. It's a product review, not review of FK and you review it once you have received the item
I'm not getting the idea behind this. If people are not able to buy the items they are offering, then what's the point of this sale and all? They invested huge amount in Ads and all. But no one is able to buy the (lucrative) offers, which are ofcourse false.
But, there are some legitimate offers too, but 90% of that also is cheaper in Amazon / Snapdeal. So it's just that they increased the price and now providing discounts. But the point is, very low number of people are buying those items.
So what's the point actually? What's the profit?

It's marketing. and cleverly done at one. They have not spent huge amount on this. And penetration and reach what they have achieved today would have required lot more.
also, I am impressed by SD. They turned this whole thing and now majority of traffic is on SD also. You can see in FB comments about people recommending SD in comments. Some of them will be obviously paid by SD, but it's working.

I bought a sandisk pendrive early today for 193 rs. Sandisk 16gb usb otg dual pendrive.
I wanted to buy a Redmi 1s early today, so added one to cart and while proceeding, after confirming everything, it said something went wrong and showed nothing in my orders. So I quickly added another to cart and proceeded.
And now I have 2 confirmed orders from flipkart and no way to cancel one.
I just wish they had better servers.
Both if these are COD. So, what happens if I dont pay for the other one ? Will flipkart blacklist me or something? :/
