System Error lead to me not getting my chosen item

Today (31 Oct 2015) I promptly checked the takealot app at 09h02, to see what daily deals were on offer. I noticed that there was a Toshiba portable H/Drive on sale for R499. I promptly added it to my cart and attempted to purchase it numerous times but to no avail as the app gave an error stating \unable to p**** item"or something to that effect. <br> <br> I tried calling TakeALot at 09h36 but recieved no response to the point that I finished my airtime. I then recieved a call from a lady from *** at 14h03 to enquire as to why I had phoned takealot. I advised her of the occurrence but she advised that there was a system error which prevented my from completing my purchase and once the error was fixed the 400+ items sold out. <br> <br> Considering the time I tried to purchase the item and the fact that it was a system error gave enough reason for me to be offered the product at the advertised price but this lady refused"
