    This sucks as my cousin is going to Atlanta and he wanted to know if they would have them there so he could purchase 1 for himself, I guess this will dash his dreams :(

    I take a look each time I go to my Costco in San Diego, and he is still available. There were maybe 6-8 Metroplexes the other week. It started off with an entire pallet, a truly beautiful sight. I think it's been a month now, and they are almost sold out. So I think they have sold fairly well.

    You can always ask at the customer service counter, or call and have them look up the using the item number. My guess is that if your store hasn't gotten them in by now that they're not going to.

    The distribution of these was odd, at least locally. We have 5 (?) Costcos in the Twin Cities metro area, none of which got them in AFAIK. I believe there are only two outside of the metro, both of which ended up carrying Metroplex.

    Last weekend I still saw some at the CostCo in Mesquite. I am hoping my fiancee bought one for me for Christmas.

    There are three Costcos in my nearby area, and as far as I can tell none of them got it or will. Very disappointing. I've given them the item number and also the name.
