Marka few other options for consideration on limited supply drops:
- offer exclusively to first 100 people who voted on the item; this will also help you get more traction against your polls
- create an auction and use the profits to fund your advertising to expand your user base
- create a lottery system for first 200 people that choose to join, only those randomly selected will be charged
- let people know in advance for polls that the quantities will likely be limited on

MarkIt would be good if you released the drops at different times of day. There are group of us in New Zealand that have been really disappointed to miss out on the limited drops. They are released at 2:00am our time, when clearly we aren't checking our emails. As it is now we're excluded totally. If you hope to expand your customer base outside the US then you need to remove barriers for international customers.

We're sorry that you are disappointed that this collection sold out so quickly. Unfortunately it's often difficult to secure large quantities of highly desirable fabric. What most companies do is raise the price to decrease the demand (and generate more profit), whereas we list it at the same price regardless - this leads to selling out quickly.
We're still a new and growing site and are very open to suggestions. Given that we could only secure 53 bundles this time around, what does everybody propose as a solution to this problem? One option is to not offer it at all (which happens, although our threshold for this is about 20 units). Another option would be to not email people about it (there will be less disappointment...). Those are just a couple- we're happy to listen to your suggestions and see what we can do!
Thanks for your patience!
