My wife was on this expensive customizable couch website looking at bean bags and I joined on my own screen eventually making a sofa with 123 seats. Their couch configuration thing appears to have no limits. I'm most surprised that they think it'll only take 1-2 weeks to ship.
(Maybe I've already been on vacation too long.)

Too many web storefronts don't do any capacity checks. My local wings shop got in big trouble on Super Bowl Sunday because they took too many online orders and couldn't fill them in a timely manner. We waited over an hour from when they said it'd be ready for it to actually be ready and people at the store were getting pissed

Iโ€™ve had that happen with Buffalo Wild Wings (they fry in beef tallow so it makes me feel less sinful) on a Sunday. With most things, I donโ€™t mind a wait. I mostly mind my expectations being violated.

That's the thing, we got an email saying the order is ready but when we got there we still had to wait an hour. My guess is they configured the ready email to send out X minutes after the order rather than based on any real time data or input from the restaurant

Missed that one!

We bought a Sactional (not that large, though), because I enjoyed all the different configurations so much.

We used to have three pillow sacs when we were in California. They make good stuff.

Have you considered living in a couch?
reply
The website doesn't allow 3-D configurations, but that doesn't mean they're impossible.

With that many couches, and a bunch of blankets, I could make a hell of a fort.

We also wondered that. Too expensive to find out. I bet they'd call.

This is the entire reason to become a billionaire. If you were Bezos, you could just click the fucking button and see what happened. Then build some place to put it.
God damn it I would make an awesome billionaire.

I don't think so. You would stay humble and stack sats.
reply
I like to think that's a compliment. Don't correct me if not.
But I would be humble, sat-stacking, and with a very large couch in a pole barn somewhere.
If it ever happens, check your DMs, I will invite you for a beer.
