  LOL it was claimed before Amazon even refreshed the items on my computer. What was there like 5 in stock?

I say we all storm Sennheiser USA and burn it to the ground. Afterwards, lets all go hunt down the amazon CEO, Beezo, and tar and feather him. Whose with me?
 
I literally hit the add to cart icon within 5 seconds of the sale going live. Talk about lightening deals, sheesh.

Weird, I was able to add each one on cart, then look at percentage and it was at 25% claimed. After that I deleted both, then look at % claimed, it was 100%.

I got a pair of HD600... Went on waitlist and then it notified me that I could add to cart, which I did and completed the sale. Likely going to sell my HD650 when I get the HD600..

Do you guys want to organize at least 10 or 20 folks to e-mail Amazon and say that we are SERIOUSLY offended as Prime members and so on that we know they offered less headphones for an ENTIRE INTERNET worth of people than the average single Best Buy location carries of "Black Friday" special TVs and $199 laptops? I mean seriously. It is pretty much false advertising to show it as "look what you missed" when you guys were all sitting there on the trigger and not ONE of us got one. 
 
What Amazon didn't count on was ALL of us knowing that not a ONE of us got it -- and thinking we'd just 'assume' there were a lot.

I was checking out the Amazon deal and saw the claims get taken. It went from 0% --> 33% --> 67% -->100% so could be there were only 3 total for the HD650. Sellout time was about 8 seconds by my count. Good hunting! 
 
If it makes you feel better Massdrop still has the K7xx which I think is a better headphone at a better price.

Amazon Lightning Deal for HD 600/650 went so fast it gave me whiplash ... limped on over to Koss site which has Cyber Monday 40% off (I own an older set of Stax Lambda which is getting long in the tooth and ESP 950 is pulling at me again ... last year at this time I put ESP 950 in cart but got cold feet and let 40% off deal expire)
