<p>[QUOTE="vorador, post: 1290090, member: 17969"]Wow! I can't believe it's sold out already. I'm glad I decided to try and get this at noon instead of waiting till this evening like I did for the past 4 five-ounce ATB's. I kind of wished I ordered 2 but I'm happy with one. I understand why people are upset about those who ordered more than 1 set to flip. It's like people that bought multiple PS3's or iPhone's to sell for a profit (most of the time an obscene profit) and thereby depriving the chance for some people to get it at the initial price. It's especially disconcerting when some of the sellers involved don't even keep 1 product for themselves but are just in for the profit. That kind of behavior screws over the actual fans of the product that want it not for profit, but for its own sake. At the same time I understand that those who did buy 5 sets were playing by the rules of the mint and that's the way it goes sometimes. There's a difference between what you <u>should</u> do and what you <u>can</u> do. And most of the time I side with what you <u>can</u> do. I think the mint should have limited the first 60,000 to just 1 per household and then increased the limit after that. Oh well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
