    I didn't want it anyway! (sulk)

    EDIT: I should add that actually I didn't, but thought this was the normal monthly restock day and surprised to see it go so quickly.

    Actually no make it a 1GB VM and a 512GB slab sorry for the hassle

    it was at 13-14 stock for like hours I think

    then when I sent the link it quickly went to 12 and then 11

    are you guys seriously getting 2GB VM's for $7?

    how wealthy are you?

    Stock lasts for some time but restock of 1GB is minimal. 2GB is getting all of the love.

    Yeah, I know... I've been meaning to get NY and LV to go with my LUX so I can do anycast for literally over a year, but I always forget to check back just after the start of the month. I don't really need it yet, so no biggie.

    I was just surprised to see every size slab at 0 immediately after you posted the link. I don't need slabs as I don't use much disk except for backups.

    And I mean, it's a victim of its own success scenario. I'd hardly restock 1GB in their shoes either. The price/GB is the same, but the cost of the IP is static. If they get all of their stock sold out within hours/days when when barely restocking the 1GB, it makes sense to do so. I'm honestly super glad for their success, it's just annoying as a lowender that more and more often $7 is the starting price now, not $3.50.

  • emghemgh Member, Megathread Squad

    Just as I posted the link, stock went from 13 to now 10 one at a time :D

    It was steady before that lol

    Lux is a fine location. Lots of issues so I dont blame them from abandoning it. Curious to see how it works out in NL. If good, I'm ordering again and replace a vps from another host.

    There's LOTS of great providers in NL, I don't see there being such a high demand for VPS basically starting at 7/mo in NL

    Their pricing is fine.

    Their competitors aren't random no-name brands that started last year doing $2.50/mo 6GB RAM boxes or whatever. Their pricing is more in line with Vultr, DigitalOcean, and other very popular and production ready setups. The price they charge is still low considering you can get anycast, block storage, private networking, BGP, etc. All things Joe Schmoe with a $100 LLC registration and some old Xeon somewhere isn't offering.

    I've got like $160/mo worth of boxes with BuyVM and even though I could trim that fat and get rid of quite a few, I probably won't.

    Many providers compete on price. Some compete on features and quality. In my mind, BuyVM has always been the latter.

    Thats been a big complaint for a long time, us not being able to keep up with stock.

    We did better with that during COVID times, but it just became too much to do alone.

    Scale in what way? I've had VMs upgraded to the next largest plan / upgraded via ticket in the past and storage can be upgraded (slab).

    Stock issues aside, they scale just the same as any other provider represented here besides the few that let you pick/choose every resource you want exactly.

    Where the company is registered doesn’t matter in practice since they rely on ’law of the land’, although it might matter if they’re sued etc but I wouldn’t know.
