    So according to their twitter feed, they are selling 2-1 between Runabout and Drift. Runabout being more popular wasn't a surprise, but the number of Drifts being sold surprised me... considering the lack of interest here at least.

    Since both were half sold within the last half hour, if there are about 3000 Runabouts, I'd be guessing that there are probably 1500-1800 Drifts.

    Since everyone has been waiting two days for the pre-orders to be re-opened, and expected it to be done at the same time of day, it's no surprise that they managed to sell 1000 units in under an hour. It would also mean a greater drop-off of orders now, as all those people have now purchased theirs.
    If I didn't have to go back to sleep, I'd be keen to watch the twitter feed over the next few hours to see how the sales go now that the rush would be mostly over.

    I suspect sales are slowing - they were the over 2000ish Over-runs mark about an hour ago.

    Managed go order the WA lot just a few minutes ago with now issues. And got the numbers I needed.

    No new twits (twats? I dont know the terminology) since an hour ago though. and That was 65% on Drift. No word on Runabout. Wonder if sales just dropped off after those waiting in anticipation got theirs?

    I had no issues at all and it looks like I am an hour or so later than everyone else. Darn humid hot nights!

    Good news though, their twitter feed says they should be shipped before Botcon!! When's Runamuck due?

    Nope, but they do reserve the right to limit quantities if required

    That is discussed here as well

    But I think the general consensus is an email scan is just as good. Although they may not care anymore, I changed my CC with the club and didn't have to fax off anything.
