you guys need to read up on QA<p>The only way to use it between launches is to delete app and re-download from the app store<p>And the only way to figure that out was to follow them on twitter, 4 minutes before the launch. Anyone else just couldn't open the app<p>Awesome work guys, how about testing on "normal" products before asking companies to give you their most important launches of the season
I think this is a brilliant move. I've seen people lining up around the block at the sneaker shop near my house for a new release, so I'm sure there is the online equivalent.
Hello! I'm Tucker, Product Manager on Frenzy.<p>Frenzy came to be from one of Shopify's quarterly hackdays projects, with the goal of changing flash sales for both merchants and consumers forever.<p>Frenzy is the best way to buy from brands you love. Whether you’re looking to buy rare products, discover new ones, or learn about new brands, Frenzy is the place to do it. Rather than waiting in line at a retail store, missing out online, or simply forgetting about a sale – Frenzy puts the hype of the best product releases in your pocket. When you buy from a seller on Frenzy, it’s just like buying from them in person – but you can do it anywhere in the world.<p>Frenzy will be launching this week with merchants Kith, Love Your Melon, Raised by Wolves, Off the Hook, and more, who will be selling products exclusively on the app.<p>Happy to answer any questions!

Seems to be like ibood.com but as a service.
Really like the ibood concept as its European based, a lot of the deals you see online are exclusive to the US, hope that won't be the case with getfrenzy
I wish Amazon used this for their sale of the Classic NES (<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/11/nintendowned-amazon-sells-out-of-nes-classic-editions-in-null-seconds/" rel="nofollow">https://techcrunch.com/2016/11/11/nintendowned-amazon-sells-...</a>) flash sale.
This seems oddly worded:<p>"With Frenzy, there’s no limit to your sales volume, the number of products you can sell, <i>or the bandwidth you need.</i>" [emphasis added]
This sounds exciting specifically for selling tickets to anticipated events. The amount of servers crashing under load is too damn much in my experience.
