Interestingly, I later got an e-mail from Phlster, so, that shows that nothing would have kept me from receiving an in-stock notification, had Phlster sent one.
“You left your shopping cart without completing your purchase just a bit ago. We are confident you will love our products. below is a coupon code that is good for free shipping for the next two days on us.“
Well, of course, I did not complete the order, because the two Enigmas, that had been in-stock when I started the transaction, were gone before I could complete the order. And, I doubt that discount code will be helpful, unless they miraculously stock more Enigmas this weekend. Sigh.
I understand that a wait-list is not the same thing as reserving the item, but why bother to maintain a wait-list, if it has no meaning?
