They were advertising 80+ in 3-4 weeks on 2nd dec so id be wary of these claims.

Maybe they got shafted from MS, which is more than likely.

I would pay very little notice to the numbers quoted on dabs. We have been using them for about 6 years at work, and I've had stuff that was "100+ in stock" not show up for over a week, but also stuff that was "due in 1-2 weeks" show up the next day.

Not saying don't use them, I have never really had that much trouble with them. Just take their quoted stock info with a pinch of salt. Or five.

No. That number is live so to speak. It's gone down from 84 this morning with people buying.

I do hope it isn't just guess work.
