This was bullshit, had it in my cart the minute it became available but it was impossible to checkout on mobile. All my friends on pc bought theirs on easily
That was my situation too initially. I first tried while using my Steam Deck and it kept running into errors during checkout. So I yeeted myself to my main desktop where it went through without a hitch.
Mobile always seems less stable than desktop when making purchases.
It was probably easier to spam continue in PC vs mobile. It wasn’t until I got good at hitting continue before it scrolled I got through.
I got mine in via Firefox on Android, but it definitely took some persistence.
If it makes you feel better, I was on desktop (web) (and mobile and when I was getting desperate deck, lol) and my order didn't go through until xx:31. I think it really was just random.
I tired buying on PC but couldn't get it to go through. Started trying on mobile, and that was where I finally got my order in.
