> [@WretchedRapture](#): > > I got one! ;D > > And Chris was worried they wouldn’t sell. lmao. Maybe this was a selling strategy? Sell fifty, let those fifty people hype it up, then release the massive run after he feels the hype has been generated? (Not that it wasn’t already hyped before release…) But I think this yoyo is going to sell REALLY well, if today was any indication. ---

Yeah, if Chris released a huge amount of yeti’s, you guys wouldn’t have felt the need to rush and immediately buy them the second they dropped. Good strategy. (I’m still butthurt about missing these because of an extended game of LoL) ---

I’m literally crying… I bought it as soon as 10 hit. Yet it says I didn’t get one. I’m so mad idk what to do. I bought a prepaid visa just for this. Now that is 60 bucks down the drain. I am a loyal customer. Ive only been with yoyoexpert for 3 months and have spent over a thousand bucks. I really hope they fix this. If not I’m gone forever… ---

If not I’m gone forever… Don’t blame YYE… It’s not their fault. Stuff happens. We were all very lucky to get one, and there will be more. It was really luck of the draw. I was lucky to have all my info ready to go, and got one right when the site started to get REALLY slow. Took forever to load the checkout. I thought it would be crazy, maybe not this crazy, but I came ready. I figured there would only be around 20ish, but there were a few more. Besides, read this! There’s going to be ALOT more of these: > [@CLYW YETI](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/clyw-yeti/56160/192): > > This was an ‘initial pre-release’ only - it was super small and we knew there would not be anywhere near enough to go around but Chris wanted to have a small pre-release timed with worlds. He has a lot of black ones that are still yet to be finished in assembly - so more to come. Appreciate everyone’s patience and apologies to those who were not able to get one - but they will return soon! ---
