This guy will have to wait for his younger brother.

It was available to buy starting noon local time. I refreshed the page until the buy option became available, but kept getting an error when submitting payment. Waited about half an hour and now it’s sold out. Ni modo I guess.

    Oof. That’s rough. But given how insanely profitable these ~90 minutes must have been for Valve, I’m sure they’ll be back in stock in a few weeks since none of the components seem to have supply issues.

    I managed to get one by just spam-clicking the continue button for about two minutes. I know, I’m part of the problem.

      I tried that too but stopped because I thought it might think I was a bot.

      I never do that because there’s not much I need enough to commit that much, but also because I’m worried that the next week thirty of them will show up on my doorstep and I’ll realize I’m broke.

      Maybe they would have lost money overall. The store being down for 45 minutes, is not good fo business.
