Hex house disappeared before announced time

I noticed this as well!
It wasn't just the Hex House: the entire Nights of the Dead category on the Marketplace disappeared an hour before NotD ended, so 11pm PST on 11/3 instead of midnight. My blind guess is that someone forgot to account for daylight savings somewhere.
And like you, that means that I didn't get to make some last minute impulse buys. If that evening's convo in the homeshow channel was anything to go by, it seems that quite a few folks stumbled headfirst into the locked door here.

I saw it at 11.40 pm pst, at that time it was 8.40 am here (I am in Europe).
I went to grab a coffee, came back 5 mins later with the intention to buy it with another char, so changed to that one, and it was gone.
At this point it was 8.45 am cet.
I even went on Google to check the timing, and there it said, that the time was 11.45 pm pst.
So basically it disappeared within 5 mins.
Please devs.....give us one more day to buy the items we wanted.

I was disappointed in this as well. I was actually going to get one more of the hex house, and a few other odds and ends from notd.
Guess they saved me money.
I really hate to say it because I do like most of the devs in this game, but I have kinda come to expect this sort of sloppiness overall. That is not a dev thing. That is a management thing. (For them is it low resource? Then stop putting effort into adding more over-complications into game such as researching {for decorators this was a HORRIBLE idea-ask me why,} and more time into neatening things up.) I suppose they can loathe me for saying this, but its the truth. We all pay for this game (and it is a lot,) I can at least think they should do better.

Huh, how about that...did this differ across servers? I'm on AB, and on my end, the entire NotD category had winked out of existence when I checked just a few min past 11 PST; couldn't have been later than 10 min past the hour. I'd been looking at it sometime around 9 or 10pm, but I can't recall exactly when, hence that blind guess that it disappeared due to some daylight savings screw-up.
I know it wasn't just AB that lost it around that time, though, since folks from other servers were reporting the same issue on Homeshow, but unfortunately I don't remember which ones in particular.

I think you are right, the daylight savings change wasn't planned for.
Hopefully because we were shorted that hour (yes some of us were doing last minute shopping and buying of the hex house and recipe book) they will put it all back up for 1 more day. All we can do is cross our fingers.
That'd be nice, but I wouldn't hold out for it, especially given how crowded the calendar is in the near future.
It'd be good to hear some word about whatever bug this was having been found and fixed, and maybe some assurances that the same inventory will be available again next year.

I even petitioned it in game same day as i posted here, and no answer neither here or in game....
I only just resubbed, but if the ppl responsible can't even be bothered answering the players, I am going to cancel my sub.
I don't intend to pay money to someone who doesn't give a rats a** about their customers....we already get enough of that when shopping online.
