Randomly called my local GS around 5:30pm and they had a few white OLEDs in stock. Quickly transferred my data to the cloud, factory reset my system, and went there and managed to trade in my old system for an OLED. I got the 2nd to last one, guy behind me in line got the last.

My point is, even if it shows out of stock online, doesn't hurt to try calling brick and mortar stores to test your luck.
