Found it for $138 on Amazon, delivery between Jan 17-20. Feels kinda like a scam, but if it is Amazon will give my money back so I swiped the card. Hooray!
As predicted, it's a scam. Just got an email saying the seller is out of stock and wouldn't be able to deliver until May, despite showing on Amazon that they have 30+ in stock. This is a pretty common thing (sellers listing inventory as available that doesn't actually exist; when they figure out they can't order it from their supplier they just delay it until the end of time) and I've got burned by it before; hopefully Amazon can make it right. Requested cancellation, hopefully I'll see the money back soon. Wish Amazon could figure out how to curb this practice.

That sucks hopefully Amazon get it sorted quickly. I didn't realize there were scams on Amazon, I thought they had a decent process for being able to sell on there.
Sam, did you and Pete happen to eat brunch at The Iron Horse Hotel in Milwaukee? I was very impressed by the brunch at Smyth...
I worked all weekend, but I did grab sushi with a former co-worker Saturday night, which was nice.
I did eat at the Iron Horse for breakfast once. I stayed there for Mr. Collins' wedding. The brunch was good, but not outstanding. The Ambassador only offered their brunch on Sunday. You would order whatever you wanted, and they would make it fresh to order. You could order as many plates of things as you wanted for a flat rate. The food was outstanding.
Iron Horse is great, Ambassador is very good. Seriously though, brunch is such a huge thing here -- almost every restaurant in town kills it with their brunch game. You've all seen the sobelman's bloody marys, right?
This is a real thing that you can order for brunch. Note the smaller bloody mary as a chaser (bloodies are typically served with a small beer here in MKE as a chaser).
Next time we do something in milwaukee, we'll have to take a little brunch tour of some of my favorites.
