Reply To: GW: Why do they do it?

Why do they do it? Because for some reason FOMO drives people crazy and makes them buy shit they wouldn’t buy if they would take a minute or two to think about it. But since they all have been trained to expect things to not be available after day 1 they all go in with the mantra “to have is better then to want”.

It has been some time now that a company would bring something new to the table and you could be sure that that thing would be available consistently for the next weeks and months.

I can’t blame smaller or medium sized companies if they underestimate the sales of their products or want to go the safe route by limiting the first production run but bigger boys like G’Wullu do have the data and know rather exactly how much they will sell off. And they are taking full advantage of it.

ONLY WHILE SUPPLY LASTS!

The only way to get out of that is to either a) lock in an order the minute things are announced or b) simply don’t care about it and let others be the buying wankers.

For my part: I  out in my pre orders for SW:L and that’s it.
