Pheeewwww! Ordered 2 Over-Runs and a Drift, and received confirmation by e-mail! Not cheap by any means, especially due to excessive international shipping costs, but well worth it none-the-less I'm sure. Decided not to get a T-shirt, though...
From my end it all seemed to work well enough, even though I made my order by iPhone!

I tried to pre-order 4 times (using two separate cards) and each time I received an "unknown" card error. It seems I need to call in, but they closed shop 8 minutes ago. We'll see what's left tomorrow.

Got my order in, no way I was going to miss out on it this year.
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.

Looks like their system crashed. It'll be up shortly.
FROM THEIR TWEET - Don't order anything until they fix it.

Got em', thank goodness. They kill you on the shipping charges and even charge $3 extra for bubble wrap.
Good luck to my fellow Seibertronians, I hope that everyone who wants these exclusives is able to get them.

I managed to get my orders in, but from what I hear they are having server trouble now. Hopefully they get it resolved soon so that everyone else can get theirs.

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

Wow. They need a new system or SOMETHING. I've logged in, shopped, filled out the full page of form and credit card info and address... for an error. Maybe 10 or 15 times? Very frustrating.
It's like some bad Las Vegas slot machine nightmare.
Come on... big money... no whammies!!!

Well, at least they decided to put them up end of day on monday instead of friday like they did Botcon so if there are problems, people don't have to wait a whole weekend for service.

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 successfully talked to them on the phone. They said to continue trying to place an order until it was successful; they will not try to run the failed orders. Their system is being overwhelmed with volume.
(I had to try like fifteen times before my humble order for two Over-runs was successful.)

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.

From Facebook:
"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.

YAY! I got mine! I didn't actually want to get SG Drift, but I figured 3 months down the road, I'd just HAVE to have him because I'm a D about these things, so, Yay!
Runabout looks radical. I can't wait for Runamuck and Runabout to be on my Decepticon shelf.

Just for the record, NONE of you owe them an apology for placing multiple orders. The customers should be apologized to for this situation, not the other way around. I'm tired of people trying to make us feel guilty for being a fan and seeing people get abused like that. We're the customers. As customers, we should be happy and satisfied ... not feeling guilty for trying to purchase products from a company.
