From this video, store staff and other customers have to intervene to stop the fight.

Many queued for hours before Starbucks store was even opened on Tuesday, 26 February 2019, the day it was launched. At least one person is reported to spend the night waiting in a tent until Starbucks opens.

That's pretty crazy.

It's sold out by now but no fear, you can find all things via Taobao, and other reseller platforms. Each Starbucks paw cup retails for a hefty ¥199  or SGD 40. Sources show that some even sell it online for as much as  ¥1,800 SGD 363!

Starbucks also announced, they will release another 1,500 mugs on their online stores, but the date is still a mystery. I guess.
