AD purchase and wait list data points?

None taken. I don’t have an emotional attachment to the idea.. and I get it would take a lot of buy in from everyone for this thread to have even marginal utility so it’s very flawed in that regard... but my thought was that most wait list info on the forum is spread out and difficult to find..even though there is a lot of it..and a recurring topic or subtopic on threads.. I read the forum a good bit since when I want a Rolex, I can’t just buy one and have a lot of time to look... lol.. I get exactly what you’re saying and I think the poster that said past something ‘like spend and location are the two biggest variables’ is correct... but even with the less than 20 posts I’ve read, I got useful info about wait experiences in the US south and even my home state/market that I found encouraging and interesting... and for people who don’t like wait list threads or data, I would think they too would benefit from it being consolidated and thus avoidable from the experience they are looking for...

My best bet is this thread dies pretty quick because it takes a lot of buy in to be useful and people won’t fill anything out.. but I appreciate all who posted because your responses have encouraged me that I might actually have a decent chance of scoring something quickly with some charm and luck in my area... not sure if I have either.. lol.. but I’m not paying 20k for a BNIB hulk on the grey market or giving up on the idea of getting one from an AD just yet. ;)

Thanks all for the replies and I really enjoy this forum!
