A bit more sarcastic than unsatisfying.
I can appreciate that you have a product that has a demand that well exceeds the supply. I am willing to wait for a notification or wait on a list however, you offer neither.
I enjoy your product and have a simple question.....How do I purchase it?
So here's where I'm going to do my best to keep my cool... because the passive aggressive nature of your your question is framed around a premise that isn't entirely true.
It's unfair to say I offer neither... I had lists... those are no more. I DO HAVE product notifications on the site, and when I use them 500-600 people attack the site and crash it. When they crash it they scream at me, and even worse, the site messes up the transactions.
I'm right here between this big rock and this really hard place. No matter what I do, SOMEBODY will get angry at me for not doing it some other way.
They say "you can't please all the people all the time" but lately, I can't please anybody ever, and pointed questions about "how do I buy one" are just the tip of the iceberg.
But to answer your question, for fear of sounding condescending, you purchase it just like any other product... you wait until they are available and you buy one.
I guess you're asking for a way to cut corners, but there simply aren't any shortcuts. There are no guarantees and if there were, the folks that have been following this thread since January and still don't have one yet would more than likely come ahead of a person that is more or less new to the thread.
I don't really have a better answer than the obvious one.
I KNOW the demand is high, and I am working hard to deliver as many as I can. I have a full time job PLUS this PV business, and if you wish for it to be different, then feel free to do so, but I'm doing the best I can.
