The IPS Black Friday Sale is back again for 2009

The basics will be the same but for those of you that didn't partake in the craziness last year I will go over all the rules and regulations again:

1. The sale starts at 12:01 am FRIDAY MORNING. We had 50+ orders last year on THURSDAY morning so make sure you have the right day. We also had 10-15 orders at noon on Friday so it starts in the AM not the PM

Thanksgiving night / Friday morning at 12:01 the "Black Friday" banner at the top of the site will go live and the pricing is good for 48 hours when the banner is no longer active. However, to get the free parts and extremely discounted items you have to act fast! Last year we had well over 200 orders in the first 10 minutes so a quick trigger finger is a must

2. We are limiting the free "Give Away" items to one per customer while supplies last. You can check-out with as many as you want (To make sure you get something if what you really wanted gets sold out) but keep in mind that the longer you spend adding multiple things to your cart the more time that someone else has to add one thing and check-out to get what they really want.

3. There will be no preview this year as to what parts will be 100% free or extremely discounted -- you will have to find out at 12:01 and decide what to grab while you can! Last year we put up a preview for a day or two but that just gave some of you intellectual types the time to fill up your cart and wait for 12:01 to check-out Not this year!

4. If you jump the gun and order at 11:59 or 12:00 (Before the banner goes live) then the order does not count toward any of the promotional items. I will be going by my time here in Ohio (Eastern) and not by order number. With so many orders placed at the exact same time the order #s got all out of whack so it will go strictly by time (And seconds count!).

5. None of the Black Friday Sale pricing will include shipping as we have quite a few local customers that participate and they can just stop by to pick up their items. Shipping will be quoted per individual order. Shipping will be charged on 100% free items (They are not free and ship for free too) but typically it is $6-10 via USPS or FedEx depending on the size/weight of the part.

5. You have to click on the "Black Friday" banner to go find the discounted / FREE / sale items and promotions for the sale. Don't stay up until 3am finding MR2 parts for $0 and think that you will be getting them for free. If it is not on the BLACK FRIDAY page, it is not part of the 48-hour Sale.
