Stalking Tips & Tricks

Regarding cancelled orders:

Order can get cancelled within seconds or within hours. It depends on the situation. Below are the reasons noted by fellow tpf members:
1) someone may have checked out before you and item went out of stock
2) you’ve reached purchase limit (see #13 under terms of purchase - online orders) on LV website

Best is to call 1866 number to understand why your order was cancelled.

I believe once status updates to “Order in Preparation”, your order should get shipped.
I’ve had an item in order preparation get cancelled recently
 
Because of this thread, I started stalking the monogram Pochette Metis about ten minutes ago and managed to submit my order a minute ago. I followed the tips (add to wishlist, staying logged in, updating all information, etc.) and it was almost like magic that the bag came back in stock three times before I got it to ATB and checkout. That was some luck. Thanks, tPFers! Hopefully this order gets shipped.

Congrats!! And welcome to the Métis club
 
Thank you!

I am really holding my breath hoping I got a good one that doesn't suffer from the construction issues mentioned by entirely too many folks here. Let's call me cautiously optimistic.

I have issue with the one I got...minor misalignment of the print which I'm willing to overlook but I just found nicks/peelings of the canvas around the corner. I managed to order a 2nd one and is on its way so I'm hopeful that it'll be better. Hope yours arrive in perfect condition!

Once you're able to get the item in your cart, checkout with Paypal. It's way faster and smoother (assuming you have your shipping address and cc's setup on Paypal already). I'm not sure how people are staying logged in on the site.... the website always logs me out so having my cc on file doesn't really help.
 
2 things what worked for me:
1) Put items on your wishlist and refresh from there. There seems to be a lag with the update in product page vs wishlist. I know clicking the status seems like time wasted but this seems to beat the lag on the product page update.

2) USA Website consistently restocked between 8:15PM and 8:30PM EST. The website obviously restocks throughout the day but the times mentioned have been consistent. I’ve also called this out on the stalking thread but question has been asked multiple times.

i know people’s tips will get lost within the thread once more and more people post, but the key is using the search feature!

good luck to all

:lol: HaHA I started the stalking thread. It was all for chit chat about what you were stalking while you kept refreshing the site. Funny that there are rules now about no talking.
Lol I agree. I was also discussing other things but apparently some people are getting annoyed. I get it. But this can be a secondary source for stalking. Just a lvoer trying to help others I guess...

Agreed. I never stay logged in but once I do my PayPal account is linked and ready to go
