    honestly, they still take their time back in starfield/ssr/ssp days but after they got hyped up in the Aria, they just released whatever they can find in their basement

      in their basement

      Oh that reminds me of the limited cable fiasco they had. Their boss was clearing out the storage and found a bunch of old silver-plated cables he’s forgotten from waaay back. It was discolored but the end result was a super beautiful pink-blue. Since there wasn’t many, so he decided to do a limited sale on Taobao just to clear the stock (what’s left of them at least, after his employees went through them, lol). Condition was you buy Lan, there will be an option to add ¥25 or something to get the cable as an accessory. There was about some hundreds in number.

      He forgot about scalpers.

      So nobody really got the cables. They refunded the 25. I haven’t checked how much the scalpers are reselling them.
