15 minutes later and less than 2500 left.

 

[CaptainRichard]

I bought three to give away on my Twitch stream. Debating buying a couple more.

 

[that_frog_kurtis]

I just snagged 2, which was 2 more than I can afford right now. It's just food, I don't need it.

 

[GrammarGestapo]

why are we buying these? Aren't they supposed to be for the poor, miserable plebs that can't afford it? Ah well, I guess I'm old fashioned.

 

[that_frog_kurtis]

I guess everyone is, considering how quick they are moving. I am fairly certain that there aren't 5ooo potential backers that can afford $20 but not $45, and who know about the sale. All of the people that are in that bracket have probably already bought theirs and if they miss out then there's still unwanted AMD mustangs for cheap. CIG didn't make them non-giftable and only purchasable by new accounts, so really they are just a revenue gatherer under the guise of being charity.

And... sold out!

Javelin Wave 1 sold out fast.

 

[CaptainRichard]

Yep, all 5,000 have been sold. I ended up getting five total for giveaways. :)

 

[CaptainRichard]

Guys, I'm definitely giving one of these to a friend, but I'm considering giving the other four away on the forums to some non-backers.

I really do feel like these were meant for newcomers to Star Citizen and given that they sold out so fast, I'm thinking it was just a bunch of us regulars who bought them all, which is kind of a bummer now that I think about it.

So what do you think: Should I give these away on my Twitch stream or give them away on the RSI forum?

 

[Verticalmule]

yeah i bought one and gifting it to a friend, then convincing him to buy the$5 lx upgrade so he can get the 2 yr insurance and become a backer.

 

[Munken]

I got 3 of them. now i'll figure out what to do with them ^^

 

[Montoya]

I picked up 2 of them for friends that have not bothered buying anything yet.

You, Sir, are a genius. I completely forgot about this.

 

[CaptainRichard]

Confirmed. The Anniversary Sale LX upgrade does work with the discount starter ship. :D

Wait, no hangar?

Phew, thought I'd have to tell my friend to dock in russian's javelin.

Make that an Asteroid hangar and they'll sell for 60$ on the market.

I managed to buy one somehow? Were there multiple releases throughout the day? In any case, my friend is going to be getting my modded x52 and an Aurora game package.

Edit: the store said 1 left when I bought it. Dunno if I was genuinely lucky, or if there was a bit of hocus pocus happening.
