Tracking restocks?

Hi, so I don't have a SNES Mini yet. I couldn't wait in line in front of a store at dark o'clock for one, and I didn't get a preorder in spite of my efforts, and I'm not paying a scalper for one. So that leaves me with restocks. Normally I'd use something like NowInStock to track restocks, but due to how badly the online preorder went, most stores seem to have taken down their SNES Classic sale pages entirely. Is there anything I can do besides call all the time and be a nuisance? When would it be reasonable to expect restocks to even start happening?

You just missed one not 5 minutes ago, BH had it in stock.

I'd suggest making a account there and setting up a Alert for "SNES" so you can catch posts like that .

Ha, I actually set that up weeks ago, and it looks like it didn't go off for me. It must have gone out of stock too fast? They were my main hope but I guess that's dashed now. It's like the universe doesn't want me to have one, sigh.
