I had only planned on getting one anyway, a didn't think it wise to get picky. if some people were prompted to create an account at checkout, that may have take longer than the timeout and they got theirs booted from cart. lot's of possibilities for why. every site I've seen the code for has a cart timer, where cart item is returned to main inventory after a period. if you go to checkout after the timeout, it tries to re-reserve the item, unless the inventory is exhausted then you are screwed.

    Not the case. I went immediately to the checkout. I was almost done when the system went down. I couldn't complete the checkout due to the system failing. They even apologized for the glitch and posted the apology on line. They failed, not me, and they admitted it. I got the boot at 9:04 EST. I already had an account and they had my CC number on file. I do business with them often. The same thing happened to several people that I know of and it happened to all of us at exactly the same time. You can't blame it on us waiting too long to check out.

    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!
