I waitlisted like the DAY after it sold out
I WL'd the same day it sold out. We'll see what happens. I wouldn't count on a conversion until right around the time this is ready to ship.
I am 99.99% sure your waitlist will be converted. The question is are you 100% sure you want this if it's converted?
I think some people jump on the waitlist just because it's sell out but still not 100% sure if they want it or not. In hand pics will help to make the decision I am sure.
