I'm personally hovering over TrollandToad.com waiting to get some booster boxes, hoping I can click fast enough. You guys find any other good places?

Thanks for the tip on T&T. Down for a $50 box of INN for sure. Should get value out of that.

Yeah, it was a complete joke. It showed several boxes in stock, I tried to add multiple times and got errors or the site would time out. Finally it showed them as having none after about 10 minutes of trying. Coupled with previous poor experiences buying from T&T, I will definitely be wary of buying from them in the future.

Given how many people were likely waiting for the sale to go up (thus the slow website) and the incredibly cheap prices on the stuff they had for sale, I'm not at all surprised that everything sold out within probably a minute. These kinds of sales inevitably disappoint the ton of people that aren't able to buy the stuff in time, and only a few people are insanely happy they got stuff at half off. It may be better just to not have this kind of sale, but I don't view them any less favorably because of it.

Putting 1 box up and saying "Extremely Limited Quantities" is just bad business. They've definitely done more bad than good for their business with these "deals"

It looks more like a clumsy marketing move than something malicious. Among the online shops I buy from, T&T is definitely 1 of the more honest ones.
