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.
I ran a bot to get my Speedmax. Ran it for three months on the CF7 eTap and CF8, before a CF8 actually came in stock. My bot refreshed the page every two minutes. The bot was only pinging the text changes on the page as the dates were changing (getting pushed), not because bikes were coming in stock and selling. The CF 7 eTap has been getting pushed back since at least October when I first tried to get one. It has been getting pushed and pushed without a single bike coming in stock on the website. Just got pushed again a week or 2 ago (stopped running my bot after settling for a CF8 when it finally came in stock, after losing all hope for a CF7 in 2023)
