Got this email from Honeycomb:
We have reopened our web shop for the Bravo Throttle Quadrant!
We have a limited amount of units available from week 5 production. Units will start shipping December 30th 2020
I immediately went to their site and GUESS WHAT??? They were already all sold. Bummer
Yeah, it’s crazy. It’s almost like watching people horde TP for a viral pandemic. What’s crazy is you have some not even keep it and attempt to sell them for twice the price. Forget that. My patience always pays off.
If everyone boycotted E-bay for any of the FS stuff, those people would lose lots of money, and go out of business. Don’t get me wrong, we need business, it needs to be responsible, and to operate balanced. People being people, not counting on that happening any time soon. I will not buy any FS gear on E-bay period. I can wait for years for the supply chain to catch up. Patient like a cat playing with mouse.
Sporty’s was taking orders for February 9th deliveries this week. You have to wait a bit, but at least you’ll be in line and paying retail.
And scalping Bravo’s on ebay should be punishable by chemical castration.
I ordered mine the day they went on sale on the 1st Sept and am still waiting!
Keep checking out the website, I got the same email and got one, two hours after the email was sent. Shipping on 30 Dec.
See this was the thing that really peeved me when I reported the eBay scalping to them. If it had been me at the customer support desk receiving an email like the on I sent I would have said, look, I can’t help you with the scalping end, I’m sorry, but give me your info and if one comes available I can put in an order for you. But nope…
