Cyber Monday 2013 Deals: Motorola's Promo Moto X Deal On Hold As Company Website Goes Down, Will Resume On Wednesday At 12ET And Monday Next Week
Motorola has been producing quality phones the past year, but the Moto X may be one of the finest it has ever developed. And on Cyber Monday 2013 deals, it offered its flagship at only $349 off-contract.
But in the midst of the scuffle for the CDMA editions, Motorola's website suddenly went down.
Our website is down due to traffic & we're working quickly to restore it. Watch here for updates & for when our Cyber Monday deal starts.

The problem was soon announced, which pre-maturely halted the Cyber Monday deal even before it started.
We’re currently restoring online services. Some may have site-access, but Cyber Monday deal prices won’t begin until all systems are a go. — Motorola Mobility (@Motorola) December 2, 2013
A few hours later, the Motorola Twitter account tweeted that the CDMA version of the Moto X has already sold out. In addition, they also mentioned that the developer editions have been made available. However, several users are claiming that even the Moto X GSM and developer editions have sold out as well.
Less than an hour ago, Motorola apologized to its consumers and promised not one, but two days of promo deals for its Moto X and 'more devices'.
Our Moto X Moto Maker offer will go live at 12 ET on Wed and again on Monday. We apologize for the inconvenience. — Motorola Mobility (@Motorola) December 3, 2013
Sorry we left you hanging today. We want to make it up to you with 2 days of price promos on Wed and Mon. We’ve added more devices too. — Motorola Mobility (@Motorola) December 3, 2013
So much for Motorola's Cyber Monday deal, but at least it is willing to make up for the inconvenience it has caused potential buyers.
