After tediously refreshing this page for 3 days, I finally had success. Some tips: the “coming soon” button seems to become “preorder” a handful of times each day, at random times. It seems usually about every 1.5 to 3 hours. Upon clicking “preorder” you’re put in a line. It seems priority is given to whomever gets in line first (obviously). Usually you remain in line for about 30 seconds. Next, it will ask you to login (yes, even if you’re already logged in), and send a verification code to your phone. It’s very important to do this step as quickly as possible, because it seems you’re still technically “in line”, so whoever acts quickest, gets priority. I had numerous attempts where immediately after doing the login & phone verification, it said the item sold out. If you act quickly enough, it will put the item in your cart and provide 10 minutes to check out. VERY IMPORTANT: do not change the in-store pickup option. I tried switching to the ship option and it wouldn’t let me checkout, or switch back to in-store pickup. So that ended up being a wasted opportunity. I learned my lesson and kept in-store selected the next time, and checkout went smoothly. Good luck to everyone and hope this helps clarify things for you!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.After following this process over 50 times, the button disappears each time. I wait in the queue, I log back in again, tells me to please wait, then that window disappears and the button for pre-order disappears as well, nothing in the cart. I refresh the page to see "coming soon" mocking me time and time again. I wish this process would work for me instead of the thousands of scalpers on Ebay selling it for $500
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Read JakeG's answer. I used his method exactly and scored a copy. His excellent advice should really be the #1 answer.
