How does one increase sales by not selling?

This is crap. Once again apple is creating a false shortage to increase its sales. The ‘Oh no, I`ll never get one’ mentality. The first poster is correct. Always call the store, regardless of what some webpage says.

After driving an hour one way, I learned the hard way that the web page is inaccurate and apparently is NOT “updated hourly” as Apple claims on their site. I checked the page yesterday before I left home and 3 times on my way there. In fact, I checked it a couple minutes before walking in the store and it said they had it available. They did not. In fact, 3 hours later the page still said they had it in stock. 6 hours later it still said they had it. I called the store again after I left to see what was up and they were still out. So the web page is not a reliable indicator. In fact, I found it to be worse than useless. CALL BEFORE GOING!
