Sold Out Due to High Demand

At the opening, participants of the Starbucks Odyssey Discord group complained of difficulty accessing the site and error warnings, with the site being swamped by the demand. Although there were some problems, the collection nevertheless sold out in approx 18 mins, and demand for it on the secondary market was high. A Siren Stamp now starts at a minimum of $550.
