I had to do a little research.It must have been about 3/26/01 give or take,when I found it.The temporary receipt I first received is dated for 3/30/01 and that would have been a few days after I first found it.I still have the "list" and I did indeed call every store on the list except for the U.K.,Japan,and the two in Germany. Now that my memory has been stirred,,,when I first contacted Craigs Music,the salesman told me he was pretty sure it was still available but that I would have to call back in a 1/2 hour or so to talk to the manager to make sure.(that was a long 1/2 hour) It was during this time that I called the rest on the list.
As for the purchase date You are referring to,I don't know if that would officialy qualify in the category of "last",being that it was a backed out of prior deal? I cannot say for sure,but this was probably one of the two or 3 later callbacks I got from being on about 20 waiting lists I was on ,just in case of an event such as the one You refered to.The store in Nazereth had 20 on their list...
Anyway,it really does'nt matter to me if I got the last one or not,but its fun to talk and wonder about.
