i agree, they have tons of flexibility. once upon a time, long, long ago, in my early years on tPF, someone posted pre-sale dates on a thread, so i just "happened" into a store during the pre-sale and was invited to purchase whatever i wanted

given the economy is worse now than back then, i would assume pre-sale is not that exclusive..... and for any newbie BV tPFers who read this thread, not to worry, we all have favorite SAs like Bryan (

btw, i have not been able to get pre-sale starting next week confirmed. i was told it was closer to the end of may when the actual sale is starting. no big deal for me either way, i can wait.
