Drivers: Horray, a new car from our Overlord!
Drivers: I ordered mine. Me too! OMG me too! WTFROFLOMGBBQ I ordered mine!!!1shiftone!
...
Drivers: My kit is here. It's so beautiful, I can't wait to drive it.
Drivers: It drove great, right into the wall. Now it's broken and there are no parts.
Drivers: You suck XRay, how dare you sell me this car before spares were available.
Drivers: You're the great Overlord, you must protect us from ourselves.

XRay: STFU


Okay, I see your point. You guys are right, XRay is just terrible for this parts situation. Clearly they deserve your ire.
