The site's "Deal of the Day" is a Cards Against Humanity item: a 300-card "Absurd Box" expansion pack.
People have been running into issues getting their orders to process.
Some users, including at Business Insider, have reported issues with the website recognizing their shipping address as a legitimate place in the U.S. (the website would not recognize BI's offices in New York or San Francisco as valid shipping addresses).
Yet some who successfully landed a deal from the site have posted their email confirmations to Twitter.

— bcterps (@bcterps) November 23, 2018Cards Against Humanity has a long history of pulling similar pranks for Black Friday and other special occasions.
Here are some of the other stunts Cards Against Humanity has pulled off in the past:
- The company bought land along the US-Mexico border last year to get in the way of President Donald Trump's proposed wall.
- For Black Friday 2017, the company joked it was moving away from its popular card game to instead sell "Original Prongles" potato chips.
- They bought a pricey advertisement slot for Super Bowl 2017, and what they aired was just a potato with the word "advertisement" on it.
- For Black Friday 2016, they asked people to donate money to dig a giant hole — and they raised more than $100,000.
- The Nuisance Committee, a super PAC backed by Cards Against Humanity, funded two billboards that appeared in October 2016: one comparing Trump to a troll in the online game "Overwatch," and the other written in Arabic for the sake of "driving Trump nuts."
- Cards Against Humanity launched the OK Cookie Company in August 2016 that let you ship mean fortune cookies to your friends.
- For Black Friday 2015, the company made thousands of dollars from people paying $5 to get literally nothing in return.
- For Black Friday 2014, the company sold out of 30,000 boxes of bull poop.
