Bots programs are designed to buy up all stock. The moment it goes live, the bots snipe everything in process. Obviously you can't buy in your cart. I am sitting here refreshing, it never went live as I can see.

Bots would also have to add to cart to complete the script. Some of us would see the "Add to Cart" button but it's not there.

It did go "live" and still is "live" except the Ship It button is broken. The entire right hand side used to only say "SOLD OUT" until 2:08 PM. Then suddenly it showed 3 new regions with completely different text and a "Ship It" button.

Bots cannot buy it all up that fast. They don't even know how much stock there is to buy. Trust me, those of us on the ball here would have been able to get some, but there's some kind of bug.

Exactly. I get no traction on the app or on the website. And my result is "out of stock" followed by "NOt sold at -store near you-". It doesn't even list my store.

I'm about to walk away to work on something. I don't want to sit here all afternoon for these things.

I've been refreshing right with you...and yes the bots move that fast, which is why these figures sell out in under a minute or less

I thought you told me to give up. What do your sources say I should do? Please let me borrow one of your bots.

Crazy that NECA does not address the issues or apologize. They stay silent on their socials. On IG atleast, nothing has been said. Alot of angry people

Try logging in and/or setting a ZIP code for your primary store.
Mine knows I want to ship it to my zip code and displays my zip code next to the Ship It button.
Or maybe if you're international it just knows not to show it at all.

Also try pushing CTRL+F5 to refresh instead of just plain refresh, as your browser could be caching? IDK
