Has anyone actually gotten a text with this yet? I'm on day 12 and haven't seen any yet.

You should have received 2 at this point.

The first being the welcome text when you signed up, the second being an update text last week regarding the missed pings and the blog post.

If not, PM me or give me a ring and we can take a look and figure out what is wrong
 
I saw that,

I've been working on writing a scraper for them today.

I currently am looking at:
https://www.midwayusa.com/
https://www.natchezss.com/
https://www.sportsmans.com/
https://www.brownells.com/
https://www.basspro.com/
https://www.precisionreloading.com/
https://palmettostatearmory.com/
http://www.selwayarmory.com/
https://www.powdervalleyinc.com/
https://www.midsouthshooterssupply.com/
https://www.grafs.com/
https://www.ballisticproducts.com/
https://fedarm.com/
https://www.evergladesammo.com/
https://rbsammo.com/
https://www.finfeatherfur.com/
https://www.sportsmansden.com/
https://www.outdoorlimited.com/

This site looks very suspicious when I first came across it so I didn't write one for it.
Didn't seem trust worthy, I will deploy it when my buddy who ordered from them gets his in hand.

Can anyone vouch for this site?

Yes. They are solid.... but their website is one of the worst to push an order through on. Took me three hours to push my primer order through but it did eventually go.

I know you set this up for primers but you might think about going for powders as well before the mass’s do. It’s somewhat of an untapped market at the moment, I snagged 8 pounds of Retumbo today by my Jamaican friend :) Just a thought since certain powders are more rare than primers are.

I need to figure out the logistics of setting it up for powder.

Many different powders, and I'd be annoyed if I was told each time any powder was placed in stock.

Need to segment them somehow. For example, I only shoot 2 calibers truthfully.

There are many more powders than primers, it would require a lot more hours.

I would like to do it, but I'd need to know the interest.


Maybe I'll put an email sign up on the website, if we hit XX number I'll fast track that.
 
We've yet to see a single ping from the service, for the one lonely item (Small Rifle Primers). I'd suggest not getting too far ahead of things until the service proves beneficial to someone.

Even at whatever point all the bugs are worked out, it will require a large element of luck. If you're not already on your computer, and if you don't see the ping instantly when it comes in, and if you don't respond within literal seconds to it... you're probably SOL. And since most of us don't spend 24x7 on our computers, that's a pretty large ask.

Don't worry, I was never going to start another module until all the kinks are fixed.

You do have to be very fast, as time goes on and people calm down I have a feeling you won't have to be as fast...

But I can plot the time until the product goes out of stock for each retailer as I get more data and see if that is increasing.

You think primers are bad. Try buying a GPU. Bots everywhere.

GPU's used to be only useful for gaming..

Then came CUDA, and now gamers have to fight with Machine Learning use cases, Crypto, and scalpers at once.

I bet Nvidia is choking supply a bit too. Makes them look really good!!
