You would think accurate inventory for website orders (especially on SKUs that retail for $1200) would be "no brainer" for one of the world's greatest computing companies.
So, to make matters worse, the "customer service" told me to order when the card is back in stock. Which was a few minutes after the call. This time I chose a different payment method (direct via credit card), as this way I should not be charged prior to shipping or if they do I can decline it with the credit card company without canceling the order.

Can you describe your X-plane rig and what you do with it. I have an interest in Flight Sim but it's a shallow interest that I have currently satisfied with Microsoft Flight and War Thunder.
I have been skydiving for 2 years and decided to now get my private pilots certificate. In order to aid with flight training I use Xplane. Ideally you want to take real lessons more than on the weekend, but working full time, makes this difficult for me. Besides that some maneuvers can be practiced great on a simulator by yourself as crashing the plane in Xplane is not nearly as bad as in real life.
In order to get a good view I use 3 screens (2 x HD (L/R) and 1x 4k (center)), For controls I have the Logitech set-up with Yoke, Pedals, levers, 1 instrument panes (as some things are hard to see on the screen) 1 switch panel, I pair this with my galaxy s3 tablet on which I run Garmin Pilot in simulator mode.
I have been thinking about a VR headset, however the problem is that, AFAIK they are not AR and hence I would not be able to use the proper flight controls
