Posting about it here definitely won’t help your chances of getting 3, seeing as Garrett has been active in the threads, and there’s a strict 2 box limit per customer, posted directly on the page where they’re sold.

I know. Giving it my best shot since I got SCREWED OVER. If they were smart, they would let me have the third box.

Man, relax. When people refresh like you tried to, that is what bogs down servers, as each refresh is a new query to the server. By doing so you probably actually screwed yourself out of seeing them in stock.

Just a bit flustered. Nvm. Hopefully, I’ll score something good on black friday. It’s just… frustrating when you don’t even get a chance to see it in stock. Yesterday, I was stuck at the purchasing part; today, I didn’t even get that far.

I got screwed over because there was supposed to be an announcement on this thread of when the countdown clocks started. There wasn’t. Just “Welp…those $100 and $200 boxes sold out pretty quick”. Unbelievable.

I get your frustration man, but unfortunately that’s just the way it is with these boxes. Every year it’s a wild free-for-all where lots of people miss out. I was really hoping to grab a collectors box, but by the time I got there they were all gone on all 3 days. Yes, it kinda sucks, but it hasn’t upset me or ruined my day, because I’m keeping it in perspective.

If anything look at it this way, you can take that $200 that you would have spent on some yoyos that you may or may not have liked/wanted, and you can use it to buy some yoyos that you actually really want and know you’ll enjoy. Heck for all we know, the collectors boxes could just be full of popstars… 😛

I’m just really hoping that Totalartist managed to bag a collectors box. If she missed out on one it’d just be a travesty, and we all know it.

“If they were smart”. ?

Be Glad that I am not the Shot-Caller on this one, lol.

I’ll announce it here. If I get the big box from the grand prize, I’m going to do a monster give away. I see maybe 2-3 throws in there that I’d like to try, so I’d probably keep those and have a random giveaway for the rest of them ;D

I second this. If I win it I’ll also be giving a bunch away. There are a couple that I know I’d keep, but other than that I’ll be more than happy to share with people.

Cut him some slack. Everybody’s pissed here, because Yoyoexpert didn’t hold up their end.

They said everybody’s getting a PM, and it’ll be released on the announcement. Well, nobody was PM’ed, and it everything was sold out before the announcement. I’m still upset with myself, not because I wasn’t fast enough, but because Yoyoexpert opened it up before they commented on the thread, which defeats the purpose of them announcing it in the first place.

That meant that anybody who trusted Yoyoexpert didn’t get a box. That’s just bad business.
