DarkStar189 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I got the bad luck going for me. I didn't have time earlier with the Target refresh. For Walmart now I was there minutes before 9pm,refreshing like crazy as the time came. When the page did refresh correctly there was never a button to click add to cart. Eventually got the email they were back in stock like 20min later and again couldn't get any where. Even did it on my pc on a 1GB fiber line. On one hand I appreciate them having an exact time to preorder. On the other it's pointless when everyone else is there to slam the servers.

Spork3245 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I think listing actual times is going to make it harder to get one. It allows POS scalpers to ready their bots. This article @JPDunks4shared in the RTX 3080 thread explains it pretty well: http://uk.pcmag.com//s/pcmag/favicon.ico UK.PCMAG.COM Based on a tweeted image, the bot was able to help one reseller score 42 units of the RTX 3080 from Nvidia’s website before it went out of stock.

I’m afraid it’s going to be worse. Microsoft is giving bots the opportunity to set up their scripts for a specific day and time. They will snag the majority of them.

Having actual listed times is apparently way worse than companies just going "IT'S UP NOW! GO GO GO"...
