The eStore might have a few problems, but it's not a scam. You won't lose your money if the product is out of stock - but if it said "In Stock" then there shouldn't be any problem anyway.

The players were sold out - on paper - but there will be cases where a sale was not completed and the goods will be released back to stock. I daresay SB are also locating inventory that was set aside elsewhere (retail for example) and reassigning it to the eStore for clearance.
