I am happy that the park came up with some more...hopefully everyone who couldn’t get one the first time will get one this time. 

If these ones are ready, then what about the ones on backorder? Im just curious.

They mention taking orders.  They don't suggest it's shipping immediately.

I would imagine they made all they could (or know exactly how many more they can make), filled all the orders they had, and are now selling what's left. 

 

^Alright. Sorry about that! (My piece is already ordered) 

I have an order set to come in early Feb. so these that they're selling now probably won't come in until early April at the earliest. (I got mine in the morning on Sunday)

As of this evening, they de-listed the track pieces from the Kings Island Gear website.  I assume they will be back tomorrow.

I should be good though as IceePirate has my piece already ordered. (Was done last month on the first round, will be here in January i think)

Just ordered mine online, just want to say thanks to Don and team for putting some stock online.  My son is considered high risk so I wasn't able to make it to the park to purchase this back in October, I'm glad I didn't miss out.

I got my order placed, received my confirmation, and the site says sold out already.  Not sure how many were available but they went very quickly.

Logged in at 758 item was not up yet.  Went to site as soon as 800 hit and went through payment process and it was already sold out.  These went in like 30 seconds. All payment fields were auto filled in and it took me less than half minute to hit check out.  They were gone by then.

That was quick, I managed to get mine but man, those went quick, sorry to anyone who missed out!

I'm just really disappointed.  If I see a ton of these out on ebay come March or whenever delivery hits, ill be really upset that they didn't cap the amount available to buy per transaction at 2-4. That way real fans had a chance to buy online before it went to resellers.  I got a notice they were sold out before 8:01 so these went faster than tickets to a guns and roses concert. 

They literally could have sold obtuse pieces of Vortex for $100 a FOOT, but here we are. Folks fighting over a 1.5" piece all dazzled up, and getting mad at those who sell them on ebay.

They did cap it at 2 per person, people who bought 4 or more for purposes of reselling would've used friends and family who don't really need to be together to buy it.

 I was shocked when I went to purchase one and they were all sold out so quickly.

That is good to know, thank you!
