$66 a piece about 30 minutes ago.

The site was jammed. I called to check it out and it was legit. Just the indigo ones, though. They are out of stock as it was a limited time deal.

So was anyone able to order after this thread was posted?

What do you think'll happen if they sell more then they have? Aren't the Indego Gamecubes out of production?

Well, it says "backorder" when in the cart now. I'm still curious as to if they will/can fill backorders?

I tried, but it won't let you check out when something's backordered and out of stock.

Trust me guys, they aren't in stock. I called the CSR and she said that they only had a really limited quantity and sold out of them in about 20 minutes. Any ones that show backorder or any order placed now will be cancelled.

Im wondering why they dont update the site with out of stock. Last night when I read this it said In Stock, and this morning it says limited quantities, so I give them a call and say its out of stock. Ughghgh
