Интересно наблюдать как информационные технологии с треском провалились...

It is interesting to observe how information technology failed miserably under the weight of rush demand before the new year and the increase in the price of equipment. All these your online stores, databases, all of this are completely out of sync and have lost relevance due to the fact that during the day the situation changes faster than any information is updated anywhere else.

In Google’s search results, the prices in the cache are old, on Yandex.Market some of the goods are actually absent (of those that are available there), while the cache hasn’t been updated for others - it shows “from 20 thousand rubles,” and when you click on the link, everywhere 35 thousand. Some stores generally disconnected from the Market (or have never been there). On almost all sites, the word "in stock" for a scarce product was a lie. Somewhere, polishing meant the presence of a supplier in the warehouse, and not on their own (in more decent stores this is called "custom"). When ordering, it turns out that the availability is not confirmed, because the supplier has nothing left or the price has increased, the order is canceled. In other stores, availability is honestly written about their own warehouse, but the information on the site is not updated online, and “available” does not guarantee absolutely anything - most goods are no longer in stock because, for example, they were bought today or a couple of days ago. Even if you yourself bought the last product in the warehouse, you know that for sure and have already paid for it, it will be listed as available for a few more days and you yourself can see it on the site. What can we say about orders that are first filled out and then paid to the courier upon delivery - these will hang in stock because you can cancel the order at any time (accordingly, several orders will be accepted for one product at a time).

Online completely lost its meaning. I help my parents buy a stove and my third order has already been canceled in various online stores (including large ones, like Technosila). At all stages - from the choice to the order - there are no guarantees of price, availability, delivery, or relevant information, nothing. Nothing can be confirmed either - the phones are overloaded, the operator can easily wait an hour, no one calls back in response to requests. For good products, the Internet and technology have suddenly lost their meaning. Although it would seem that it’s difficult: to create a single database, where “out of stock” appears on the site at the time of shipment, and when you click on “place an order” on the site, the goods are reserved and no one else can sell it in an offline store. Yes, and the cache can be updated more often, if these are realities, the search engines for flights somehow manage to always show up-to-date information. Almost everywhere orders on the site are nothing more than an email "to sort out such an order manually", there is no connection between the warehouse base, the store base, and the catalog of online stores. Even leaders like Ulmart show in stock something that is no longer in stock for several days. It seems that in order to buy a stove, you will have to bypass the half of the city’s shops in the old fashioned way. In general, I was disappointed in the depth of technology implementation.
