I should be on their mailing list but did not get this email. I just checked their website but saw no sign of an upcoming sale.

Any other details they mention in the email you received? I assume you received the email today?

I received the Estes One Day Universal Astrocam Sale email one minute after TigerHawk did. See attached images below from the email.

This is the link to the sale whenever it begins in the morning (no set time given) on Jan. 16, 2022:

Odd. I didn't get it either. But I'll certainly be interested in looking in on the sale in the morning.

When I do a search for the Universal Astrocam on the Estes website, I get the sale pop-up image shown below. When I click on the Shop Sale button, the site says that it is password protected and it asks for my password. When I enter my Estes account password, nothing happens, at least, not yet. I suppose I'll have to keep trying.

Kind regards,

I'm not much of a rocket-cam user, but how can one pass up a deal like this? Ordered two, plus something to get me over $50 free shipping. Wish the 3" Big Red Max NC had been in stock.

Huh, I just noticed the YORF time is 1 hour off, at least for CST.

I was able to order also. It did take multiple attempts, as I kept getting 504 errors on the site. Must have been lots of people accessing it.

Looks like Estes is continuing the sale, but at 25% off instead of yesterday’s 50%. Covers the Astrocam a few other rockets.

I tried to log in several times on the initial 50% off but couldn't get in. Notified Estes. Got an email that their IT fixed the issue. But, by then, the 50% sale was over. They never offered to let me complete the purchase.
