Linden Lab pulled down the Starter Vehicle Pack that was a part of its Friday launch of Second Life on Amazon within just minutes or within a couple of hours of the announcement of its availability, depending on whom you ask.
The pack included a hoverboard vehicle and L$1000 (a little under four US dollars in Second Life currency) and was limited to one-per-customer. Intended to sell for USD9.95, the pack was a free promotion for the weekend, but was removed quite promptly after the announcement.
Peter Gray, spokesperson for Linden Lab, tells us why the offer was pulled.

I’m going to talk about expectation management and Second Life, so it is only fitting that I first talk about Star Wars, in 1977.
