Just curious if you have to find deals when they are first posted or if the purchase prices at the listed stores just rapidly changes all the time.
It is common and you need to be careful with checking prices even when a deal is first posted. Also deals will close and there will be deadlines to submit tracking numbers or you may need to cancel orders depending on the group. You definitely need to have a good tracking system in place.
