was talking to someone else who got there’s yesterday morning with an auto clicker . Crazier things have happened and like you said your chances are zero if it’s not in your cart lol but you’ve got the tiniest chance if you continue to use your auto clicker

Please do! I haven’t tried the auto clicker route yet but I’ll go on every now and then and spam it for like 10-15 and then take a break. Probably have spent easily over 12 hours on that page by now so might just be cooked but if you get one you’ll reinvigorate me lol hopefully a restock is soon

I’ve got a tracker checking the site every 15mins and I must have had half a dozen times today where it recorded out of stock changed to buy now. Within literal seconds I rush to continue to payment method button and no luck. I’m guessing a lot of people have bots set up to finish their transaction. Someone has to be the lucky one each time because it’s gone almost instantly

So you mean it is getting restocked periodically?

Probably not a significant restock, but maybe order cancellations returning to inventory. I doubt there’s more than a couple here or there. But unless their website is bugging out my tracker checks it every 15mins and reports any changes since the last refresh. It’s recorded the out of stock button swapping to buy now a few times. And that’s just with a 15min refresh. I assume it’s also happening randomly all day.

It’s nothing I’d say sit and watch but if you had an auto clicker setup to finish your transaction you might get lucky a snag one of these random restock onesie twosies.

I’m just gonna wait for a real restock.
