I was trying to get this http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2....6r8w&cid=60427 (Comforter) and http://www.overstock.com/cgi-bin/d2....R85A&cid=60428 (Duvet). So I click one link and add to the cart and then click on the other and add to cart.. However when I add the 2nd item.. the discount for the first item is no longer applied in my shopping cart. It doesn't work.. try it out. How would I make so I order both items in one order both discounted?! Its killing me!!

Thanx lights!
Are the Catalog #'s better?

It looks like they discounted our manager. He has fallen victim to the Philosopher!

no, he works all days of the week including the weekends. he actually IS a manager at overstock (it's not just a title) and has other responsibilities at the company... this effort to provide the specials for got apex forum members is actually "kind of sort of" a beta test, if you will, for both of us.... he's offering it to us because he likes you guys (yes, really) and is severely limiting what other sites will be given this opportunity. if it is successful this month, we'll (hopefully) get a chance to continue it.... otherwise, it may get dropped depending on how nice we are and how successful it is. so the schedule he came up with to post the deals we ask for here on monday, wednesday, and friday, i THINK, is for him to keep his sanity and more importantly, to keep from getting bludgeoned by his web developing team in creating these specialized links. hope this all makes sense....

btw, this wasn't really directed at faither. you just happened to ask a relevant question and i took the opportunity to go deeper into it.

you know what.... you're actually sort of right. the difference for me, is that it doesn't work with 2 other products, but not the products you want. i've sent an email to him regarding it and will let you know when i hear back. i'm sure we can fix this or at least, come up with a solution for you to order both. hang on for a just a little while longer....

The problem lies within our system. It does not allow you to "stack" coupons. This is to prevent coupon abuse. Let's say for example I give you guys a deal on a comforter set at the same time as a 12% off promotion. If not for our system, you could get my discount plus the 12%. We would lose a TON of money that way. The best solution is to either order the items separately then send me the invoice # and I will credit you for shipping, or place them both on one order and then send me the invoice # and I will credit you the discount amount.

I hope this helps!!

Here are the deals I was able to do based on your requests. These expire on 12/22 (even the Dell printer). These discounts range from 13% - 18.75%.

$15 off Superior Comforter Set

$15 off Shantung Luxury Comforter Set

$25 off KitchenAid Gourmet Essentials 14-piece Cookware

$5 off Etonic Women's StreetFighter Classic Running Shoes

$25 off Nikon N55 35mm SLR Camera with 28-80mm Lens

$25 off Dell A922 Photo All-in-One Printer

P.S. Mr. Overstock Manager, thank you for the A922 deal!

Thumbs up How about these....

Hello Apex and Overstock Manager,

You must be kidding me. I simply ask for a reduction in price and you actually give it to me. Finally a business relationship that helps the little guys wallet out. Keep the creative ideas flowing.

Now my requests:

White Gold Tanzanite and Diamond Earrings
Catalog #: 948254
and
Catalog #: 959550


Swiss Army Brushed Stainless Esquire Knife
Catalog #: 960405


Thank you

Thank you for the help on the comforters!

Is there anything you can do with Catalog #: 1002612 (or a comparable poker set).

Thanks, again!

Thank you very much.

One question...Is there anyway to chose an expedited shipping method that would be delivered by Christmas? This item doesn't have the little "in time for Christmas" notation. Thanks again!

The expedited shipping options are available when you proceed to checkout.

Overstock Manager:

The item on which you provided the discount does not allow for expedited shipping (called the 800 number and they said it must be coming from a warehouse outside the Continental US).

Would you be able to provide a discount on Catalog #: 412869 or Catalog #: 412870. These two items have expedited shipping as an option.

I appreciate your consideration.
