highly doubtful. hondos showing up at walmarts say that this is just a blunder with their preordering and supply system. im just completely amazed they didnt have enough for every order, considering yellow jacket lukes sat by themselves on full pegs for months there was never a moment you couldnt waltz in and buy one.

It sucks because it appears that preorders are canceled in the order they are received, and if they fill orders, it’s the back end, not the front

I'll be VERY tempted, the next time a Walmart exclusive drops (for something I'm genuinely wanting).... To put in a double pre-order immediately....wait a bit (like, an hour), then put in a single pre-order, wait a bit longer (couple more hours), then another dbl pre-order. Then, *if* the item is still available the next day, boom, another pre-order the next day, and so on. Just to sit back and see WTF happens.

That seems to be how the fulfillment (or cancellation) order is working out. I ordered nine Mandos during the later availability window (December-ish maybe) and have had four ship today, with the other five still outstanding. The comments I’ve read and chats with friends all seem to indicate the “Day 1” orders being cancelled.

No, I get it, Jay. I'm a guy who seems like he knows all the answers, but the inner workings of Walmart online are confounding, even for me.
I had actually ordered the original listing that was at 24.99 before they updated it, but cancelled as soon as the other went live, so I was pretty close to the front of the line, as well. Maybe there is some merit to the theory that these were on those containers that are in the bottom of the PAcific. |

I’m futilely putting Walmart on blast. They told me cancellations were due to a system Issue.
Pretty non responsive overall. I was respectfully aggressive. They are supposedly giving me a $15 promo. Rather have the shit I ordered, especially when they’re apparently sending multiple units to others. Fucking asshats.

I ordered 2 Mando's. 1 was canceled and the other shipped today, with FedEx delivery tomorrow.

So, my Mando and Child was canceled. Very useful pre-order, as usual.
