It looks like they will offer a different item each day. Today's item sucks lol.

Oh it sucks. I won't earn my silver status until the end of January and you have to have that for all of the tournament tickets which is all I wanted to buy.

Thanks for the heads up on the sale. I will have to check it out.

The $11 Sunday ticket (1/24) and $50 reward bonus (1/25) are good value and pretty close to the end of the month if you can get it by then.

Will they update me to silver as soon as I get 750 VPP"s this month?

Yes

Todays:

Category: Clothing
Original Price: 1,700
Discount Price: 850
Discount Percentage: 50%Date: 01/12/2010

I wonder if they will all be 50% off... a couple of the $265 bonuses @ 50% off would rather rock

Officially from Pokerstars:

"Players can only purchase one of each discounted item, and items cannot be transferred between players."

Not so official (so don't hold me to this):

BONUS (Day) Original Price Discounted Price Discount % $/FPP
$50 VIP Bonus (1/25): 5,000 3,000 40% .01667
$285 VIP Bonus (1/26): 25,000 20,000 20% .01425
$650 VIP Bonus (1/31): 50,000 40,000 20% .01625
$1500 VIP Bonus (1/15): 100,000 85,000 15% .01765

So I guess I need to hit silver by 1/25 to buy the $50 bonus.

Yea, I'm going to get the $50 bonus and maybe one of the tournament tickets.

Today's sale, mini chipset 25% off.

I don't get it.It says vip bonus (not cash)explain this please.

Its like a deposit bonus, you have to earn vpps to get the money credited to your account...but not nearly as many as a deposit bonus. Its 350vpp to release the $50, you have 90 days from activation or it expires and you wasted your fpps.

Tempted to get the watch. Will definitely get the cash bonuses as well 'cept the $250 one which is poor value for me. Will buy the steps and possible the $215 SM ticket. Still thinking what else I can spend my VPP's on

You spend your fpps on these not your vpps right?

I think I will pass on the spade stress toy today lol. I did buy the $27 step 2 ticket yesterday though.

Just received this message and the item is now out of stock

Doesnt look like I will be getting the hoodie.

Anyone else experienced anything similar?

Hello aukallsopp,

Due to the huge number of orders for the Spade Design Hooded Sweatshirt during the January Sale, there may be a delay in sending out all the items.

We anticipated that this would be a popular item, but we were taken by surprise at just how popular. Due to the unprecedented demand we cannot meet all requests from our existing stock.

Rest assured all orders will be fulfilled, and many of them within the usual timeframe. For those that experience a delay, we are extremely sorry.

Thank you for your understanding and patience in this matter.

Regards,

Bob
PokerStars VIP Club

Probably should mention that the whole list of items to be put on sale including the day on which they are sold is available at 2+2:

That's a shame, I have the black hoodie and absolutely love it. It's a good quality piece.
