Same boat. Shortly after placing the order, it's no longer available to order for pickup online, but the order status is still "Locating Item" 4-5 hours later.

My cancellation emails are trickling in now. Dang it.

did they state reason? sold out or limit exceeded?

Was able to get some by doing store pickup, thankfully no cancellations and some more available once I got to the store

Well, most of the SoCal stores near me now show out of stock. All of them had plentiful this morning 😳

It finally hit Reddit this afternoon. Perhaps that's why?

Unavailable. That's it.

I didn't push my luck and only ordered one from B&N after they hit the stores.  Just received it in the mail today.

Probably, I just picked up my last three. I had called early to have them on hold. 

Was able to snag six total. 1 shipped online, 1 for store pickup, and 4 in-store sweep. Most stores around me got in 4-5 total sets and all are now OOS.

Same here. 6 total from the same store. Now all gone..

Other store in town received theirs last night though I didn't see the inventory update until first thing this morning.  Ordered 1 for pickup and went to store as it opened.  They had 1 left + my order.  She told me they got ~10 and that they pretty much sold out immediately.  Got lucky there were a couple left to grab apparently.  She told me what the other store did as well and that it appeared they could order no more.  

While I do assume this will pop up on SAH as a GWP at some point, after the Barnes run out of their shipment, I think the race is on with this set.  

FWIW - this is on the stonewars list of EOL.

Hoping for a quick adios. Kind of like the Harry and Hedwig Brickheadz

Was able to pick up 14 total, across state lines and 4 stores. All were call ahead and paid over the phone, to avoid any misfits from claiming they were theirs (my paranoia [emoji23]).

Nice work. I managed to get 6, but I only have 1 store within 100 miles of me. Would be great if these are done..

Just received the two I ordered online for shipping. All six orders I placed for store pickup were cancelled. I feel lucky for snagging two.

Looks like sellers are dumping inventory. I’m holding back, let’s see how this plays out. Get rid of the bottom feeders and see where this goes.

I don't mind picking up some scraps here and there! I'm not moving any of mine yet either...these are going in the vault.

Stonewars saying that The Book of Monsters is planned to be a GWP w/ HP sets in early 2021

https://www.stonewars.de/news/lego-harry-potter-30628-monsterbuch-der-monster/

"We put out feelers for you and asked what the plan is with the set. And even if there is unfortunately no official information, it currently looks as if the set will appear as a free supplement in the brand stores and in the LEGO online shop in the coming weeks . As we were informed, however, it is not yet entirely clear when the time will come. It will probably only be available as a free supplement (presumably only with LEGO Harry Potter sets) in 2021, but at least. That would perhaps be offered in January for the first LEGO Harry Potter novelties in 2021 ..."

Does anyone know when this set first became available as a GWP? Was it around Black Friday?
