Hey TB'ers!

Help me out: how do I increase my chances of getting a Fliptop next time they're available? (I missed out today by a mile).

I (naively) thought they would be made available during the day (April 2nd), during business hours, but it turns out they were on sale late last night or maybe at midnight - is that normal for a release for a new batch of pedals?

Any idea when they'd become available again...? (are there somewhat regular intervals between availabilities?)

I'd really like to score one of these and support a fellow Ontarian.

Thanks!

I think you’ll get your Fliptop eventually - but hey, as a Canadian - you have to bring it strong. Let’s see hearty breakfasts, bacon anything - whisky drenched dinners - moose tracks. Read the 51,662 previous messages - and you will likely have a Fliptop. Try it - it works! Also, buy when in stock.

Okay you're from Ottawa, so not really Ontario, not really Quebec... kind of no man's land, so we have to treat you with suspicion for a while. If you like bacon, that will stand you in good stead. Possibly.

Now that that's out pdf the way... Keep your eyes on the classifieds - there will be some available in about 10 days... trust me on this. If not, they will likely be released again in a few weeks... just takes some patience. Definitely worth waiting for in my opinion.
 
Today's magic combo... some days ago the delivery moose brought a few pedals. It took me a few days to get to them, so I didn't really break them out until yesterday. Tried the Locust Star... didn't really get it. Tried the Solarian... didn't really get it. Tried the Filptop Boost... got it, but thought it needed something. So I plugged it into the Solarian... Now THAT I got.

The Solarian sounds even better if you plug it in to my board by shipping it to me for money.
