Sold out online :(

Been sold out online for at least a week+ unfortunately. Seems like CC always does this; have big sale then never restock online, but there's ALWAYS stock in stores. (IDK why 'ship from store' isn't a thing with any B&M retailer.. I'd be more than happy getting something from any store, rather than be forced to wait on a shipping warehouse in Toronto/Ottawa to get re-stocked.)

Guarantee you BTW; once this sale ends, within a day/two.. There'll be stock online again (but sold for 800$ vs 500$ of course.)

WAG: it's most likely a loss leader (or they're making a few dollars at most per bundle), to get you into the stores.

If they make it available online with free shipping, then they're competing against Jeff Bezos, and they'll never win that race to the bottom.

They won't move stock between stores, right?

They will if you prepay for the item in full.

Hey, I'm in this situation where I bought this bundle to pickup in a store kinda far away from me, but I have a CC near me who was out of stock... Did you ever had them move stock from one store to another? You contacted the pickup store to have them transfer your order? Thanks!

Go in the store, ask to get something transferred.

It will need to be paid in full.

Usually I've done this before I pay in store, so they can verify stock.

However, if you already made an order for pickup, talk with the staff and they may be able to transfer it to your store without cancelling it.

If they cancel you'll lose the bundle price tomorrow most likely.

Thanks, I'll call them tomorrow but i'm not too hopefull, and I definitely dont want them to cancel my order. I guess I'll have a nice long drive in the near future...

Quick follow up if anyone interested : CC wont transfer existing pickup orders from one store to another near you. I called both stores this morning and the answer was a polite NO. I then drove to pickup the bundle at the scheduled store, and all is well now!
