At least they're making somewhat of an effort...I guess. They now only accept a month's worth of orders then stop - i.e. if you call after, say, the 10th of the month, they won't take your order - you have to wait until the first of the following month
I'm not sure how that really helps, other than to thwart some orders and send the people to either eBay or their competitor. IMHO, they should either increase supply (hire some more damn people already) or decrease demand(raise prices). They're just lucky China or India (in horsehide only of course) aren't jumping in on this.
The eBay phenomenon is a natural result of capitalism. No different then the Wii resellers at Christmas. Hate it all you want, but it's probably going to get worse as Milt Sparks says they've now clamped down on orders that they interpret are being purchased for resale.
