I was on the product at 359 PM. I had time to change my mind 3 times . After seeing what 12 decks went forI changed to six then I changed to two . In retrospect I should have taken the 12 and make a few UC members happy..

I didn't get in on them coz I don't fancy the red variant. And not to bring anyone's hopes up, but I believe they're not completely sold out. It says 1000 will be offered at the shop, only 250 or so singles seem to be accounted for plus a handful of signed. There's still loads missing. Perhaps they will be available in brick form.

I appreciate your optimism and the information that you just provided. I do regret to inform you that I was sites mining the website and links 15 minutes prior to launch. after I made my hefty purchase of red Gator backs :-) I went back and added a 1000 to the cart and saw that it was only letting me purchase 695 cards. at that point every 60 seconds I was texting my wife to let her know how many cards were left until it sold out. :(

My interest in the Red Gatorbacks seriously waned about fifteen minutes before they became available on the website. Simply put, I fell asleep at the desk and quit caring about anything other sawing logs haha. My only regret, having to fall asleep in the desk chair and not going for a proper rest. Anything else is unreasonable really.

Usually I would be all upset, how could I have missed out? What the hell was I thinking? Why couldn't I keep my eyes open for 20 more minutes? Naa, not this time. I'm chalking it up to personal growth and being able to let go. (The green gators are my favorite and I have some.) Maybe I'll be able to trade for a deck at some point, maybe not. It is what it is. I'm okay with that.
TL:DR It's completely up to you.
We can still be friends.
I actually like playing cards.

This was ridiculous. More like a lottery. I was visiting a friend in the hospital, still set an alarm to remind me, went to my phone immediately, put 12 in my cart, went to purchase and it said they were sold out. Oh well. I guess I saved some money, but I knew I was going to profit off them as well.

Perhaps people have more in cart and they were released back in to the database or funds were declined on purchases etc? I think with the flooded amount of transactions going on the delay between the database and the website cart could have done this. Even after I made my purchase I'd go back and type in 1000 to see how many were left. Then you'd go to check out and it would say they were sold out. *shrugs* I consider myself lucky! :)

Wow. Well done Lord Nikon.! Tell me, Did you buy so many to sell on or are you keeping them all to yourself. Just interested as I may be interested in buying a couple from you if your selling. If your planning on keeping & using your stash then fair enough!

Also. What prices do people think these will be getting sold on for? No one, except the odd eBay knob with stupid prices will commit to a price. That's assuming a few re sellers got therr hands on them!
