Never seen a company win the marketing game so hard, yet have zero product to sell, at least in NA. They say a speedmax cfr is about a month out from being in stock, but it's said that since last summer. They just keep pushing the dates.


They're not just pushing the dates. They're selling out their stock as it comes in. You're not fast enough pulling the trigger.

I bought one in July three weeks after deciding I wanted it. I've seen them come in stock multiple times since then.

Its been discussed on this forum multiple times recently the way to do it is run a scanner on the website that checks every couple minutes for them to come in stock and alert you in some way. I have a python script that I used and sent me a text to buy. I'm thinking of turning it into a free mini Saas but not sure I want to take that much risk of collecting data and all the GDPR restrictions.
Back in the summer I pretty much checked daily for my size to come in stock. One day, while getting close to the expected stock date, they simply changed the dates to another month a half out. If I missed an XL CFR coming in stock it was literally by hours or minutes.

Don't worry, I only played that game one time and went on an ordered a custom painted quintana roo that took about three weeks from custom order to delivery.


Minutes not hours. As said before there's quite a few people doing it the common sizes are going fast.

Just out of curiosity how many IMs did you do during the 2007-2009ish time period? Because I can assure you it was much tougher to register than buying a new speedmax is.
