Black Library fiction The End and the Death - Volume III

[Kenzaburo]

Wait time is more than an hour - time I simply don‘t have this morning. You gotta be kidding me. Does this mean that I‘m in a queue with tons of bots or just you fine gents?

I'm so annoyed with myself, accidentally opened the site earlier than intended, my queue was 30 minutes which would have meant I got in just after 10am, but got in early, just got booted out at 9.40am and now my queue is an hour...... sigh...... 

I checked the website around 9:29 and yeah I got 5 min queue...

[m_r_parker]

I have one tab remaining, says it's 12 minutes. Was 8 a minutes ago. I think my luck has run out this time....

 

EDIT - Now it's 16 minutes...

And yet janna_43 on ebay has multiple copies to sell somehow?!

[Son of Rawl]

This is just depressing while waiting in the queue.

It's got to be bots surely. Ebay is already showing dozens of copies.

 

this is actually worse than the old system

I'm still at over an hour for everything. Went all the way down to 20mins and now all the way back up. Either way I'm done with anything limited edition from Games Workshop ever again.

Agreed. This isn't even slightly worth it.

[OpossumStrong]

Ok guys I don't know what happened, I had over a hour queue and then it just let me in...

 

[Wisesamwise]

Sigh. Also had the same problem as most of you... Got on early, joined the queue, got into the site at 9.30 and didnt know I had a 10min slot. Happily looking about at LImp and booted out. 
Now an hour queue.

Fashionproduct2020 has 6 copies on ebay!

[Matcap86]

You can quit boys, my wife went to the shop in the hopes of skipping the queue but it went out of stock couple minutes ago. First one I missed in the whole range. :cuss: this :cuss:ing bull:cuss:.

It is beyond me how they could’ve made the entire system worse. And yet they seem to have done it. Before I seemed to have at least a tiny chance in hell, now I‘m expected to wait in a queue while bots have seemingly circumvented everything. Jeeesus.

I think you shouldn't advertise them like this 

[m_r_parker]

I'm in - doesn't say it's out of stock, but when adding to cart it says Insufficient Stock

they should be named and shamed and reported to GW; must be a store employee or something similar, using their shop terminal before opening?!!

What I don't understand is, when I joined the queue earlier there was a notice (which I haven't seen before) saying that, effectively, the site was region locked, so orders outside of your region wouldn't be fulfilled.

In other words, I couldn't, for example, change my location to another hemisphere and get the book early. So, ho are there sellers on e-bay with copies that hadn't even gone on sale yet?

I have only missed 2 of these limited editions so far, but this one looks like it would have been impossible even from the start. 

[Dried]

I got all the previous books...
I entered at 9:59 and it was already sold out.
I'm disgusted.

[Matcap86]

Lol my queue windows went back up to over an hour again. So it's been fluctuating between 15 minutes and more than an hour left for 3 quarters of an hour now. 

 

Oh well, at least this :cuss: show is done with.

Before I had the impression that I could get a chance with some timing and brute-forcing with F5. Now I‘m still at over an hour wait time, the thing is sold out and multiple copies on eBay where sellers got more than copy to sell. What the hell happened here?

Actually way more effective way is to report trough ebay, first of all they are selling something that they don't own and some of them wont state this in the description ( the rules requires it), price gouging can be used as a reason too. 
 

The problem is, that most of them are sellers with high rep, and the max ebay can do is to ask them to change the description...

I didn't meant to cover over them.

The abomination of a new website happened. With scalpers taking gleefull advantage apparently. 

[m_r_parker]

I knew my luck would run out eventually. But on the last one, when I have all the others...

I want to punch a wall.

 

Time to go out for a walk. Perhaps some fresh air, some exercise, and a cup of coffee may make my mood better. I doubt it...
