Trident [emoji823] sold out everywhere (1 Viewer)

[Cody]

yup. I ordered 2 on different accounts by luck!!!!! they arrive Monday via regular shipping because I just left offshore(should of gotten 2 day shipping, and i didn't even use a coupoun code for a free item of the week. LOL BRS sale started 1am CTS instead of 2am CTS(midnight Pacific time according to Terrence). I'm keeping one, and the wife is selling the 2nd one. She said she wants some nice Lights but doesn't want to pay over $1000 for them. the instock email from BRS didn't arrived until 1:59am. and they were out of stock at 130am... i never received emails from Marinedepot.com, or SaltWaterAquarium.com. This roll out was a massive clusterf#@k of epic proportion!

They did this because they're not confident in their product. They had them beta tested but they're worried about cranking them out only to have failures. It's much cheaper to replace 500 of them than 5,000, which they knew that they could sell that many over night. Why wouldn't you strike while the iron is hot? They purchased this product from a guy at MACNA a couple years ago and had to delay the launch. Why the hold up after purchasing the rights to what was sold as a finished product? They're hedging their bets and testing the waters.

I didn't know that. I thought they designed it from start to finish . Thats news to me. Wify also notified me Trident #1 was sold for $1650!!!! so she is getting some new lights and #2 trident is paid for!

I love the idea since I already have an Apex but will be waiting a couple years for all you other people to work out the kinks.

I’ll Wait on the bullet proof time tested models to reveal themselves. In 3-4 years...there will be many more better options.

Don’t like buying prototype of anything. Will wait till at least 2nd generation.

I’m loving mine, the results seem to be right on point with my manual tests. Nice to be able to just look at my phone instead of breaking out all the test kits!
