Smiths Everest. Bots?

I tried to get an Everest this morning. I was able to put a white one I’m my cart, but the black one was never available. Mistake or are flipper bots now buying them all instantly?

There are always flippers, hard to find, sold out, etc. Whatever bs they can come out with to make a profit
Absolutely this. Flippers for these kind of microbrands are particularly infuriating. I remember when the PRS-60 came out and people were already flipping Some people really will get into this super niche part of an already very esoteric hobby and deny what is likely a collector from getting a great, moderately priced piece, just so you can flip it for a $200 profit? Super weak.

Absolutely this. Flippers for these kind of microbrands are particularly infuriating. I remember when the PRS-60 was released: within hours there were folks reselling them for $200-300 over MSRP.

Super weak.
Anything that is limited. Flippers will use it as an excuse to make a quick buck. The latest being the Seiko Kosuke Kawamura watch. The teal and black, people were trying to flog for £1k+. An absolute joke. Can't stand people like that
