I have not had one add since Sunday morning. I am not in Vine jail. Reaching out to find people in the same boat!

I keep checking this board to see if anyone is as confused as I am. Can someone detect any kind of pattern with the drops? I seem to get 2 to 3 adds sometime in the middle of the night and that's it. I even tried to stay awake for a few hours (not a big deal as I am reading a great book) and I never see anything.

Is this the new RFY ? 3 items after midnight EST and that's it? Last night's drop was 3 ink toners.

Was there a RFY drop or just random items? I kept checking but did not have anything at 11:30 EST but at 12:20 EST I had 3 items. I had to do some work, so could not check between 11:30 EST and 12:20 EST, which, of cours, means there was a drop. Vine hates me lol. What time was it at? thank you.

We just had several bags just drop in AI.

They were gone almost the millisecond they hit my queue. There is one I really liked but I could not even click on it to see more info.

Did someone here get it per chance? It's not a backpack. It's taupe and appears to have some kind of design like flowers? But could be another design.

Could you post a pix on here so I can save it for my wishlist? I do that with items I consider purchasing.

Lucky you! Thanks for any help.

Ever since Vine changed the drop times, a week ago, I have not ordered one thing from my RFY, whether expensive or not. During the evening drops, I was previously offered some interesting items. Yes, most were "ungettable" because I was "too slow" to get them, but at least they were offered. Now, I get about 8 items, per night, consisting mostly of stuff like water filters for refrigerators (i dont have) and gauze in every size you can think of. At least I would average 1 to 2 ordered items per week from the evening drops.

In full disclosure, during my last evening drop, I was offered a Dyson which I did not get because I clicked 5 seconds too late, but literally since then, nothing at any price point, of remote interest. How much gauze does someone need?

I know the few items I am being offered are pretty crappy because they just sit in the queue for 24 hours, so they are not appealing to others either.

To be clear, I am not even expecting expensive items, just items that I can use.

I even made sure to check OFTEN, so often and I have not seen anything drop and quickly get snatched up.

I am very puzzled by why I got decent stuff (even when they disappeared quickly) during the evening drops, but now that it is early to late morning I see nothing interesting at all. I know it's only been a week, but there is a substantial difference, in items, between the 2 drop times.

Also, yes, I know, I sound self entitled and ungrateful.....let me say it, so whoever wants to "accuse me of that" can just scroll past. This is a discussion board and I am hoping others will share their situations, thoughts and experiences..

ETA: At this rate I might not make 80 items.

I have been checking quite a lot, when i can, because I cannot detect the new pattern for drops. But I cannot sit and just refresh either. I randomly clicked and saw a Dyson vacuum, immediately tried to take it and, of course, it was gone. I had never seen a vacuum before.

This one hurts because the vacuum I now have is on its last legs. But, I DO have plenty of water filters and I don't understand why people are not grabbing those LOL.

After weeks of no picks, a nice coffee machine dropped on Tuesday and was delivered yesterday. Unfortunately, I received a baseball cap, instead, under that tracking number. It's obvious that the mistake was from Amazon. The label on the package I got was not tampered with, at all,and of course, the envelope containing the hat was unopened with no damage. Also, I see the driver all the time and I really do not suspect him. I did call the delivery company and the driver called me back as he was searching for the box on his truck and nothing. For once, I truly believe this was not a delivery issue.

I believe a warehouse worker, at Amazon, accidentally inverted the labels and because of this, right now, somewhere in canada, someone is enjoying a coffee machine because I doubt they will ever call Amazon to report the error.

While I know that I can ask to have this item removed from my queue (Vine cs) and that I will not get a replacement (sucks but okay) I want to call and actually talk to someone at Amazon to put this in my file and maybe, just maybe, it will trickle down somehow to the employee at Amazon who can't, apparently, read an order right! How do you confuse a baseball hat with a coffee machine?

I know Vine Customer service is useless when it comes to follow up, but maybe regular CS is better?

I am pissed and I am sorry for the vendor who now will be short a review through no fault of either of us.

Should I just let this one go and just have it removed by Vine? I would really appreciate your thoughts.

When the drop occured at 8pm EST I was offered gift bags and nothing after that. My RFY had two items from the day before, so 3 items in my RFY total. Then the gift bags disappeared too, leaving me with the same two items. I went to bed and when I got up for a bathroom trip around 2amEST I checked and my queue was empty and has been ever since.

I am not in VINE jail, so I am wondering if anybody else is seeing this or has seen it. I know someone posted about an empty queue last week, but it's weird because this has not happened in a long time.

I am just wondering if anyone has seen items in AFA (other than the items that lingered for months)?

If so what were they?

I have noticed that some nights, I am lucky enough to actually get stuff I want, However, there are THOSE nights where absolutely anything I want is giving me the red box.

Tonight, I got the blue box "not everything in your queue can be seen" or whatever the wording is. Basically, when you see this it means something was going to drop but it was taken before it could physically drop. I saw something that looked like a TV, but immediately got the blue box.

I have tried for 4 things and got nothing, so this is my cue to get some rest.Just sayin...

This is my RFY since last night. I am so tired of getting random useless (urine bag part?) parts AND toners. I finally averaged out my RFY over a month and I get 4 random parts in every RFY per day and 2 toners for the same period. Yes, some days I have 10 items, but it's not exciting if it's full of parts. So, for me:

I would ask Amazon to creare a category called "parts" and one called "toners". but they would only be accessible if you searched that particular category. They would never appear in any of the 3 queues.

What about you?

I haven't had any adds in my RFY between 8pm EST and midnight EST for two weeks now. A few are added sometime after midnight.but I use to get a few earlier and now nothing. Anyone else.

EDITED to add EST time zone.

I guess it's "one of those nights" on Vine. I was offered two items and both were gone in nano seconds AND the Glade item in Available for All is unable to be taken....sigh.

This has been my RFY since 7pm last night. Anyone want to share their misery . lol
