Do you think they'll restock any more, or is that it? I'm sad that so many people had to deal with glitches and got ganked in the end.

They shouldn't have bothered with the limit at all.Lol, then they'd be sold out in 2 minutes instead of 12
Yep. They shouldn't have bothered with the limit at all.
Well, the site is getting a HEAVY strain from all sorts of people getting stuff (and going around the one per household rule), so Hasbro can't be at fault for that. No matter how much you beef up a server, people are going to be using proxies, and being horrible people to screw other's over.That said if only they had Pay After Delivery from PayPal I could have grabbed her. I won't have money until Friday or Saturday ;o;/

The system should be able to see when two or three of the same toy is being sent to the same address. If proxies, etc were used to have them sent to different locations, that would be different.
odd ive been scoping out hasbros site all morning and it popped up as out of stock. darn. guess they are releasing them in small waves

Hasbro is probably having too much faith in people to abide by their rules (not just for Ditzy, but for all of their SDCC stuff) and made that you can't increase the quantity in each separate order. But when it gets run through as a new order it doesn't actually process an order was JUST made for that address. And proxies are just used to get past all the lag so people can do it faster, from my understanding on other toy sites.

Does this merit an angry letter to Hasbroken? I'm thinking yes. Who the hell has such a crappy check-out system, anyway? What's the point of signing up for an account if it affords you LESS SERVICE in the pursuit of an exclusive?! PS still pissedI had the same frickin' problem. And I have every intention of writing a really pissed email. Sooo dissapointed right now!I think I might too. I mean - what's the point of signing up to THEIR SITE if it means you get LESS SERVICE? :/ I'm really, really not okay with this. And, no offense to anyone else - but if their 'one perhousehold' plan is working so well, how come so many people got multiples? That probably goes double for resellers.Yeah, what was the point of the limit, then?Exactly. And yes, I'm bitter as hell right now - but if Hasbro says "the limit is one" and I got 0 and someone else got around the limit super friggin' easily, then yeah, Hasbro needs to freakin' check themselves before they wreck themselves. Pissed email is in process. Shall we make this the pissed email-writing thread? Email sent. And I'm not trying to be mean to those who got mulitples, but I'm sad that you guys were able to get 2 or 3 while some of us couldn't even get the one we were allowed.Exactly! I understand getting multiples (I would have too, I have sisters and friends who want one!), but ... if the rule was one per person, and I got NONE while people got two or three, yeah, I'm gonna feel ripped off. :/ Especially since I've been sitting here, for three days, for hours, with BRONCHITIS, and I got nothing.Yep. They shouldn't have bothered with the limit at all.
