Yeah but its still very stupid to assume that their servers wont get hit with a crap load of buyers all at the same time when pulling off sales like this. They should have at least had other servers on standby to cope with this. Its turned into a PR disaster instead of being a happy customer day lol. Search google for "ebuyer fiasco" and look at the search returns allready just from today
