I think you are overhyping this.
I believe that only the clearly visible icons will be sold; the blurred icons are just used to fill up the space but they won't be on sale.
Considering that there are five items and only three hours, I think it's safe to say there will be two items per hour for the second and third hour.

If you are really anxious to know what is behind Treek, check out their Instagram post: On that image, the icons are aligned a little bit differently, and you can see that the Ivory Mouse Horranth is hidden behind Treek in the picture from the main page. But like I wrote, it is blurred, so I don't think the Ivory Mouse Horranth will be part of the sale.

To add to the confusion, the Facebook post says 3PM to 6AM GMT (instead of the correct times, 2PM to 5PM GMT), which is why some people think it will go on for 15 hours, while it only lasts 3 hours.

Edit: Never mind, 9AM to 12AM is 15 hours... So it goes on from 2pm to 5am (GMT), not 5pm if I am thinking correctly. So maybe all fifteen items will be sold, even the blurred ones?

9 AM to 12 AM is 15 hours. 9 AM to 12 PM is three.

It is 15 hours, they just borked their GMT correction again. The CDT is right (9am-12am) and there's no way this promotion that warranted being on the front screen is only going to be 3 hours.

Now I'm definitely just guessing that the icons will match up, but there are 15 of them so there's the right number and the first one on the list was the first one on sale, so it's a reasonable guess.
One can only match, move by move, the machinations of fate, and thus defy the tyrannous stars. ~Kain

Looks like we will get:
  • Armored Woodland Varactyl
  • Unlock for Treek (Mercenary Contract)
  • 5x XP Boost
  • Sienar PR-3 speeder
  • Eradicator's armor set and mask
Awesome if that's the list. We remain at a rock-steady zero desire to spend my pile of cartel coins.

Of course they have a sale on Treek during work hours...

I assume each item will only be available for the hour that it is announced?

Yeah sorry, I messed up 12am and 12pm... So the sale will be going on for 15 hours, and the main page should read 2PM-5AM GMT instead of 2PM-5PM GMT. With DarthDymond's help, these should be most of the items that will be on sale. I listed the start time and the sale will end one hour later.

  • 10am CDT / 3pm GMT: Republic's Red / Imperial's Purple Engine Reactant for 36 CC each (90% off)
  • 11am CDT / 4pm GMT: Dye Module Kit for 40 CC (80% off), White and Deep Pink Dye Module (600 CC), Deep Pink and White Dye Module (600 CC)
  • 12pm CDT / 5pm GMT: Mercenary Contract (Treek) for 420 CC (80% off)
  • 1pm CDT / 6pm GMT: Valiant Jedi armor set for 144 CC (90% off)
  • 2pm CDT / 7pm GMT: 5-Pack: Major Experience Boost
  • 3pm CDT / 8pm GMT: Sienar PR-3 speeder
  • 4pm CDT / 9pm GMT: ??

Hmm, veractyl I gots, don't need anymore question marks I'm pretty good on those, don't need a treek, horinth or XP packs. Speeder? Maybe, armors, I've got armor coming out my, erm, ears, yeah we'll go with ears. Name change, I still have my thanks for being a customer name change I haven't used. Don't need the species unlock, but maybe if at a decent price, and maybe the taun taun. Well, looks like I'm good for the day.
I'll tell you what, then. Why don't you call me some time when you have no class?
