That's happened with me before. Fortunately I got in this time. Good luck.

From my end it all seemed to work well enough, even though I made my order by iPhone!

Really looking forward to this and the Club Freebie.
Also looks like we all rushed and took the site down.
Sounds like they put a call into support on it.
Message by Twitter suggested not putting in your order a second time. I guess we will have to watch and see how this shakes out.
I'm confident I got my order put in successfully before the rush though.

FROM THEIR TWEET - Don't order anything until they fix it.

Good luck to my fellow Seibertronians, I hope that everyone who wants these exclusives is able to get them.

From their Twitter and Facebook it sounds like their phonelines are jammed rather than closed.

Well their server done broke, so you might still have a chance.

The error msg received provides that their office hours are 9:30am = 4:00 pm Central. What's funny is, at the bottom of the actual page, the hours are 9:00 am - 4:30 pm.
It's just frustrating because there seems to be a problem ordering items every year, and I really don't feel like going to the secondary market to purchase something because their system can't handle the transaction.

It's like some bad Las Vegas slot machine nightmare.
Come on... big money... no whammies!!!

Wow, yet another customer relations "oops" involving FunPub.
Don't hate on them though, because it isn't their fault.
I blame this guy...

Apparently online is working again now.

Agreed, but would've been MUCH better to just start beginning tomorrow morning so customers have the whole day to try and get in touch with them for problems.
It wouldn't be a big issue if everyone could put in their preorders this week, knowing that all would be honored.

Putting it up in the middle of the day is a lot more fair to people in different timezones though...if they put it up in the morning west coast folks would still be snoozing. This way they had time to build up so everyone could be aware of when to watch their computers.

I got the same spiel on the phone and to be fair on the 3rd attempt it worked. I copied all my details into notepad so I could paste back in rapidly!!

To be fair to TCC there do seem to be an insane number of people all trying to preorder at once. Although they brought it on themselves by making the figure half of a pair that every club member will get the other half of and, last year, reporting exactly how quickly Ramjet sold out.

"Transformers Collectors' Club (Official)
The items are going to be turned off on the Club store until the problem at the credit card processing company is resolved. We are NOT sold out. The majority are still available. Thank you for your patience."
I really appreciate them doing that. I just tried to order for the 3rd time, and freaked because both figures were missing from the "Pre-Orders" stack.

I appreciate a lot of things the club does and have definitely dropped a few grand with them, but they have a habit of finding new and exciting ways to piss off the fanbase.
Pete's FB comment where he told everyone to "ease off" is ignorant at best and arrogant at worst.

Runabout looks radical. I can't wait for Runamuck and Runabout to be on my Decepticon shelf.

Read up a few posts. They've been taken down until the situation gets resolved.
