Claim and use are two different things though. People were not asking about using it on a level 20 or whatever but claim it so they can use it when they hit 40.
Simple answer is: game doesn't work like that. They could of course change it to suit the needs of a few lower-levels during the annual give-away, or they could not change it to make sure that people don't rush and buy lots of TRIBBLE they can't use when they start off with the game to the maddened cries of being "cheated".
While it may be disappointing that you didn't get this one T5 cruiser the fix does involve taking the safeties off the C-store.

I must have been blind, I looked all monday for the fed ship but could not find it on my lvl 40 character.
Since it was not a regular sale item it showed as being available and not the usual 100% off text. I guess this made it more difficult to spot as I know it took me a minute or so longer to notice.
What should have been done was that the ship(s) should have been in a requisition box like the Dyson ships were. That way, if you were under-level, you had to wait until you were able to captain the ship before you could access it.

Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
Why they put it in the store is questionable.
