Oof. That's rough. But given how insanely profitable these ~90 minutes must have been for Valve, I'm sure they'll be back in stock in a few weeks since none of the components seem to have supply issues.
I managed to get one by just spam-clicking the continue button for about two minutes. I know, I'm part of the problem.

I never do that because there's not much I need enough to commit that much, but also because I'm worried that the next week thirty of them will show up on my doorstep and I'll realize I'm broke.

Same except for about 20 minutes, and that's after wasting like 5 minutes looking for my wallet lol, so apparently I bought one of the last ones in stock

Maybe they would have lost money overall. The store being down for 45 minutes, is not good fo business.
