You might want to log in to your account and make sure it shows up as an option to purchase. Mine didn't, so I went to a license dealer and they couldn't find it to sell to me either.

I called the WDFW licensing number and after waiting on hold for a while a nice lady got it all straightened out and I went ahead and bought it online. Got it in the mail in less than a week.

Number to call would be 902-2464

Yes. I had 10 points for the one I drew.

Thanks for clearing. I was curious and went to look, and I have the option to buy it. It's not grey out.
