Unable to locate USD 2.50/m plan

Does anyone know what's going on?

Out of stock is normal with buyvm.
Question should be "Unable to locate USD 2.50/m plan"
Looks like they have discontinued it silently.
Have you tried contacting them ?
@Francisco , 512 MB plan no longer available?
Official answer from Fran on their Discord:
only if you could somehow ask the provider directly... Like a ticket or chat with sales on the website.
I am slowly getting going to join cult 'This is just a spam to make Fran show up on main page' with just another topic.
Good....man
It looks like you also can't buy a additional regular ip address anymore.
Congrats on your first post
Do you have any script/bot that tells you about people who made their first post?
Is this true @Francisco ?
We've limited additional IP's at the moment since we've had some abuse with that. Users that need to add/remove can ticket and we'll gladly fill the order.
As for 512's, we don't intend to stock them for the rest of the year. They've been a bit problematic for CPU abuse so until I finish the CPU capping stuff we'll just restrict them.
I have no idea if they'll come back next year, we'll see how it goes.
I recommend not cancelling yours if you think you'll need it down the road
Francisco
That’s unfortunate, I need Miami for the set and my OCD means I’ll have to cancel the other three!
We've helped a few users that need/want it for Anycast once that's enabled.
I don't know if you're trolling or not these days, but if you have services, just ticket, we'll help you out.
Francisco
That, my dear, makes two of us.
Ever the consummate professional.
First time idling something would've been useful. 😢
I recently cancelled two which I actually need now.
Rookie error. This is why we idle sir
Can I request one in Miami for Anycast once you require it? I'm averaging ~1-3% CPU usage on my 512MB VPSes in New York and Luxembourg.
What if I want to downgrade a 4096MB VPS to 512MB at some point?
Edit: Sorry, didn't see your "We've helped a few users that need/want it " comment above - I loaded the thread before you posted that.
Anycast users will be given reserved stock to make sure they don't get screwed
Downgrading isn't possible.
Francisco
Provide IPv6 Only option and adjust the price even lower.
I’m lazy so I’ll just ask here; any slabs in Luxembourg soon?
Having a hell of a time getting new drives. I keep getting sold 'new to us' drives, which usually have 4 - 5 years on them. I've sent back a couple orders already for that.
This will cause nothing but grief I feel. People buying it then charging back/raging because they can't connect. Blah bah, NAT sucks.
Francisco
I think they are meaning with no IPv4 at all. No NAT. Just IPv6.
I'm specifically on the lookout for IPv6-only servers this BF, provided they are proportionately priced given the lack of expensive IPv4.
I just think it's a headache waiting to happen.
Could be an option for people using our private LAN's and have their own gateway box, but yeah.
Francisco
Wish i could transfer my 512 but Karen said no.
If Karen says no, it’s for a good reason.
I was going to offer mine up for transfer, especially given that there’s no LUX slabs on the horizon, but if Karen says no I guess they’re just not getting renewed.
Slabs always come up on the 1st. You can ticket right at the start of the month and she'll try to reserve stock for active users before new bloods.
She's blocking transfers on 512MB's so we don't have another 128MB black market fiasco like we did many years ago.
Francisco
Ye I'm thinking about not renewing, maybe @Francisco could change that ROFL
If you're annoyed over the lack of a slab then i'd ask in the ticket if she has anything.
We get around 10 - 30TB per month in LUX during the 1st week. I'll ask her to reserve the December stock for active degenerates.
