Sold out, how many sales does that make?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Fewer than originally expected. Apple cut the initial production order[1]. Also, "selling out" is a hype generator now.

Yep. I released a new product last month and sold out! I sold 3.

…Has always been a hype generator.

To mostly Youtuber and other social media creators.

I bet it was scalpers

And I hope they can’t sell them because nobody actually wants to buy one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Probably not for the most part. You need to get a face scan for the customized foam insert, so buying one secondhand might be a pain.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

There’s a reason it’s called bleeding edge. Prefer someone else feel those pains.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

I don’t ski, so I’ll never be in the market for them.
