track every store, not three

Three stores is enough to see whether the alerts are any good. It isn't enough to actually win anything, because the single biggest factor in buying at retail is how many places you're watching when stock appears.

Drops aren't synchronised. An artist store, a label store and three independent shops all get their own allocation of the same release and all list it at their own time. The person who gets one is rarely faster than you. They were watching the shop you were not.

how it works

  1. 01

    Pick a plan by category

    Music covers every merch and vinyl store. Collectables covers every card, toy and figure retailer. Both covers all of it.

  2. 02

    Switch on everything you would buy from

    No counting against a limit, so there's no reason to leave a shop off and hope.

  3. 03

    Request what is missing

    Premium accounts can request a store that's not tracked yet.

why it matters

  1. Breadth beats speed

    On a split release, the number of shops you watch decides your chances far more than your reaction time does.

  2. Regional fallbacks

    The same item sells out at different times in the UK, US, EU and Australia. More regions means more chances at the same thing.

  3. The quiet shops

    Independent retailers restock at RRP long after the big names have gone, precisely because fewer people watch them.

questions

How many stores can I track for free?

Three in total, and you choose which. That covers one artist store plus a couple of shops, which is enough to judge the alerts but not enough for a split release.

Is unlimited really unlimited?

Within your plan's category, yes. Music covers every merch and vinyl store, Collectables covers every collectables retailer, and Both covers everything tracked.

What happens to my stores if I cancel?

You keep your account and drop back to the free three-store limit. Your keywords and Vault are not deleted.

Can I ask for a store that isn't listed?

Yes, store requests are a Premium feature. The stores page shows everything currently tracked.
