Absolutely no intentions of reselling and I got screwed because of that.

That played into resellers hands waiting with bots and page monitors and cart links and...
It only threw off "regular" buyers.

That's cool but it screws over a lot of us regular people when you announce that you're gonna drop at 10 AM EST and then just decide to it 50 minutes early.

I'm also on the West Coast, so 7 AM drop is still pretty early for me. If you announce a drop at 10 AM EST/7 AM PST, I'm waking up at 6:30.

Lol sorry, by then I already lost track of time, with all the camping and refreshing.
Anyway I think that random drops actually benefits bots more than actual human buyers.

If they were planning on dropping at a different time, at least have the courtesy to drop after said time to give people a chance.

true they shouldve dropped at 7:09 with a redirect link to another site where you can cop so the bots could get lost

Yeah a little change like that would have went a long way. It's a real simple thing to do that would've helped a lot of people.
What's funny is that these companies have very smart IT professionals that could very easily throw a curve ball to bots if they really wanted to, but it seems they couldn't care less, as long as their inventory sells that's all that matters.

Definitely was for me. Limiting to boutiques and no national retailers with the exception of Barney's made this vastly more difficult than the previous 2.

Yeah. I think the moonrocks took the place of the tan 350s tho. Unless they plan on releasing them with Season 2, cause they fall in line with the color palette of the clothes.
