People would've still gone to the site, browsed and (if they were so inclined - which many are probably not) bought random shit regardless. The difference is they're not going to the site expecting some huge prize, rather the hopes they'll maybe get lucky and something they really want would be included in this.
Nope. Fomo is a powerful motivator. They are masters of generating it. It’s funny to see folks still falling for it.
Agree to disagree here I guess.
Taking reddit as the temperature gauge. I've seen disappointments after TBTs. The hype is there, as well as the disappointment. People are checking it, and being disappointed that there's nothing there that they wanted, or that they only had a couple of copies of what they did.
They want you to be disappointed because you talk about it. I bet they do a similar “sale” next year. I’m telling you this is a pattern they have been at for at least six years at this point.
to be fair, reddit is never a temperature gauge of anything remotely reasonable. the VMP subreddit is particularly awful.
It's a tire fire, but at least you can make some assumptions based on how big the tire fire is.
The very top of the page and their marketing emails always note that the stock quantities are extremely limited and expect them to go fast. In a way they're damned if they do, damned if they don't.
both of these are really excellent. people are truly sleeping on them if they don't have them. that King Curtis was one of my favorite "new" discoveries from VMP in awhile.
People complain. Give them paradise, they'll tell you it's too bright.
This!!!!!! I saw this coming a mile away…not surprised by the store drop and the backlash at all
