SS4, didn't get on

Tony G's pretty quick.
I got in fast, but didn't check out until..
Order Date: Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:56:22
My invoice# was 1528

Then i went back and put another in cart.. contemplating a 2nd order for any compadres that might be worthy of such a gift.. then my cart got dumped.

Their system is kind of messed up...

Order Date: Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:50:19
My invoice # was 1532

How can you check out 6 minutes later than I did and have a lower invoice #??? :confused: :confused: :confused:

the "Order Date" is different on the e-mail confirmation, compared to on https://shop.scrapyardknives.com/orderHistory.hg (Account History on Scrap Yard server)

I *think* the Invoice #'s correlate with the latter Order Date (from Account History on Scrap Yard Server)
 
I had an early order...and thought I had a knife.

Until I just got the dreaded e-mail.

No luck...no knife.
 
Just wondering if any of you guys that got the dreaded email scored the first time around???
Maybe they are taking the orders from those that didn't score the first time.
Just a thought.

My invoice # was 1569, seems like they'll be a lot of bad luck e-mails, I'm not sure how they'll break it down, next time check out as fast as you can or be out of luck I guess, I'm sure they'll revamp the system after this.
 
..next time check out as fast as you can or be out of luck I guess..
THAT goes without saying!
and i quote Kenny Rogers:..
"you never count your money.. when sittin at the table.. there'll be time enough for countin.. when the dealin's done"

nah.. that quote's not right.. lemme think of another one..
 
Invoice ID: 0000001545

Order Date: Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:36:56

That's at least 20 minutes before I completed my order...
 
The scrap yard database invoice says...

Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:56:47

And my email confirmation says

Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:50:19

check your acct history on scrapyard server.. mine was discrepant too..


Scrapyard server:
Order Date: Thu, Jan 4, 2007 18:56:22

E-mail confirmation:
Order Date: Thu, Jan 4, 2007 17:38:19

Invoice #: 1528
 
Something is definately off, I added to cart as soon as they came up, checked out shortly after, when the wife left the room and after I finished all that I posted here on BF that I scored one, time I posted on BF was 8:59 EST, third to do so not that it matters.
 
Just got my note no SS love for me either, drats, wished I had got that primos earlier

?8:59:??  1569  highway74  (dread e-mail, time from Bladeforum time)


Sorted by Invoice #

Yep, Invoice# pretty much corresponds with Server time.

Ironball's is weird.. u sure that's Server time?

Server time & E-mail Confirmation time are different.

"3rd SS4 Offer" on night of 1-8-07 was a Scam.
 
Invoice ID: 0000001557

Server, Invoice#, User
Time

18:47:55, 1557, Jaxx (err.. u sure that's Server time? hmm.. still wouldn't correlate tho)

18:55:18, 1538, Tony G (dunno why this one's off)

18:55:49, 1526, bld522

18:56:22, 1528, tony22r

18:56:47, 1532, Lil' Foo

?8:59:??, 1569, highway74 (time from Bladeforum time)


it's almost linear.. Tony G's throws it off.
Jaxx throws it off too..


My email confirmation in the order date/time field says 18:52:47 but my invoice ID is 1542. My time is before everyone, but I have the highest invoice ID except highway74.

I guess I'll stop trying to figure this out and just wait to get an email one way or another.
 
I think everyone's except Jaxx and Roppda are off the SYKW database... Jaxx & Roppda, do you know your time stamp on SYKW?

My email said 8:50:19... SYKW said 18:56
 
Obviously I don't think the timestamps are reliable. Not sure how they are obtained, weather from the e-commerce server that handeled your transaction, your local system or from some other source. I say this because the times seem to wildly fluctuate. For example my e-mail shows the time 03:06:36 which is just plain wrong. I think the only thing you can go by is the invoice number.

Invoicing most likely only occurs after the payment portion of checkout is completed where all transactions increment the invoice number ensuring no duplicates and the actual order that orders were completed. I'm just glad I was getting setup early for my F5ing and typed fast as hell. For what its worth, I missed out on the first offering completely so this is my first SS4 score.
 
This is my invoice time on their server 18:58:10.

And I have no bad news yet.
