This is the problem with exclusives. Clearly there is a high demand for this configuration, so after the first exclusive run, it should become a stock item.
I can't believe DLT is making any money on this as they are losing sales on everything else while this continues. Pre-orders or a lottery list might be a better choice going forward.

30 minutes of limited or no web sales. DLT must be hating life right now.

Also, I guess people in Hawaii can never get these exclusives. Probably all East Coasters snapping them up.

I like the lottery idea. That’s how some of our public/state land is decided for hunting privileges in the fall. Seems to be the best route when the demand exceeds the availability so greatly.

They could do it almost like a preorder. Pay your $5, and if you weren’t selected, get your $5 back. If you were, congrats, pay the remainder.

The magic time has come and gone and there was no magic. Server errors continue. I wonder if some people are ordering or if there is no access. I tried phone but they wouldn't sell. They said keep hitting refresh.

Where do you see a "$40" profit for ANYONE that sells a sprint? If Joe blow pays $150 and sells for $250, that's $100. Doesn't matter if he bought 1 or 4

They have a pretty tech saavy operation over there with countdown timers, instagram, text alerts, a nice website, etc. You would think they would beef up their servers for this.

Very doubtful. I tried several different ways and nada. Even a private IDSN line and nothing.
