<p>[QUOTE="Vess1, post: 7887679, member: 13650"]If the site had run as it did for the Morgans, you wouldn't have gotten one. You basically lucked out this time as the site had a total melt down for the first hour and a half and then started working so that most people could get through the check out process an hour and a half into it. They then sold about 1 to 2k a minute until they were gone in the final 45 minutes or so.</p><p><br /></p><p> There's no way to know what's going to happen when they have a release like this. Something was going on and you just expect them to be gone in 15 to 30 minutes. But at one per household and individual accounts all logged in to get them one at a time, it bogged the whole process down enough so that you could log in 2 hrs into it and still get them. Mainly because so many were shut out for the first hour with locked up computers. I couldn't even get the homepage to load for some time. I had to sign back in several times to get back to the cart for chances to checkout and finalize. The process took an hour for me.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
