I'll admit it, I was intrigued by the Firebird Flake release. Intrigued enough to set an Outlook calendar reminder to log in at 3:00 my time to buy a few tins. But it's been 43 minutes and after several 404 errors over the first 10 or 15 minutes they put me people into a virtual line.

Not that I'm the busiest guy in the world, but no tobacco is worth waiting around that long for. If it's not sold out, I'll try again in a few hours.

I am no webmaster, but would imagine there is no one to blame other than the quantity of people trying to access the site.

Has anyone seen the “queue” page on this site before? Sounds like a good set-up if it were to work properly.

I just got in after patient waiting and placed an order. Don't refresh...just sit in the virtual lobby and let the clock tick down.

P.S. wow....it did sell out! That was fast.

Finally got through the waiting room only to find it was all sold out.

How annoying, SP really need to figure their side of things out, especially if they're coming out with new Small Batches every other week.
