I know CIG is not at fault here and at this point has little (or no) control over what the re resellers do but I'd like to ask that if there is another promotion like the Optane one in the future to avoid alternate as a partner. I would suspect that every member of the German community that was looking forward to the Optane + Raven sale is pretty pissed of that alternate uses their exclusive status to sell the drives at twice the price. Again I know CIG can't do anything about this now, nor does it profit from it but it would be great if it's something we can learn from and avoid shady companies like alternate for future promotions.
