Within the first minute, every package except the 14ks seemed to have been taken into at least one basket already. Some got released later, but this was the fastest I’ve seen the lots locked up in a basket when it comes to Choice packages.

At around 1:38pm NYC time, a first offer had sold out. At around 1:45-1:48pm a second offer had sold out. By 1:54-1:56pm the third offer had sold out.

The remaining 14k offer is still tied up at 2:16pm with one package nursed by me and perhaps a couple of others being nursed by some other(s) still. But they’ve been as good as locked up since at least 1:30pm or so except for the re-released.
am i the only one completely shocked and confused by this purchasing frenzy behavior? not just choice pts. we talking ALL packages that get nuked like taylor swift era tix. makes no sense. all prior years, we would still see plenty IHG and HH. its almost like a broker is purchasing these via bot. this doesnt make sense. i suspect something is up. i havent been able to load up on anything this year.
