I've found the "email me when it is in stock" feature on their website to be useful. I'm not sure how that would work for something that everyone is waiting for, though . . .
It's completely useless!
I'm still waiting for the email to tell me the GC .68P with he barber pole is in stock which I ordered on 9/27. Best thing to do is to bookmark the item & check it multiple of times per day.
