It really is quite insane. No way in hell I'd buy a single one at any of the current frenzy prices.

I don't particularly care for the gougers, but welcome to supply/demand and the free market.

I support the idea of laissez-faire capitalism, not that we're really anywhere near a true free market or laissez-faire, but I think I'm more annoyed by the people that are willing to actually pay these prices.

A fool and his money.........

I call it the Twinkie Effect.
People who wouldn't normally buy something will purchase one (or more) if the item may no longer be available in hopes to see how much some sucker will pay for it on ebay.

That is such bullshit, the two of you entered into an purchase agreement, funds have changed hands, and now they are reversing it. This really sounds like a breach of contract. I'd call an attorney, then call them and make a bunch of threats...

Re: Magazine Buying Frenzy

ESPECIALLY if they didn't have that notice out when your purchase was made....

Re: Magazine Buying Frenzy

You can't even get on their website, it's blocked and the page states the following....
<span style="color: #FF0000">
<span style="font-weight: bold">EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY
DUE TO A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN SALES VOLUME, WE HAVE BEEN FORCED TO TEMPORARILY SUSPEND ONLINE ORDERS. ORDERS ALREADY PLACED MAY TAKE 5-8 DAYS TO PROCESS. MAGAZINE QUANTITIES ARE VERY LIMITED & PRICES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME!
Unfortunately there will be some orders that cannot be fulfilled due to inventory shortages. We Sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and are doing our best to fill all orders that we can.
YOU MAY CALL 800-588-9500 TO PLACE AN ORDER. OUR PHONES HAVE BEEN OVERWHELMED AS WELL AND YOU MAY EXPERIENCE DELAYS IN GETTING THROUGH!
