I set an alarm at 4AM NZ for the OnePlus preorder, it was a huge pain in the ass. They were running Magento (!) on what appeared to be AWS and expecting Cloudflare to magically pick up all the slack. Guess they never heard of load testing (or at least a static PayPal cart as a bulletproof failsafe).
Apparently they also had a bunch of staff in the office at the time; wonder if they at least attempted to spin up a few more servers and increase the DB instance size?
