I tried joining and pre-ordering the day Over-run was offered, and my account was about (literally) ten cents short for both, so it declined. Or so I thought.
The next days I saw that funds for just the membership were being held, but not processed, in my bank account. I thought,"That's fine, the membership will process today, and I'll just pre-order Over-run then".
It literally took a week for the payment to process, and after two emails (met with no response at all) I finally got confirmation of membership, far after the pre-orders were sold out.
You know, cool, fine, they were dealing with a ton of crap I'm sure, with the credit card situation and processing orders on top of that. Again, tooooootally understand. My fault for waiting.
In any event, out of the blue I got an email from someone there saying they saw my card declined on the pre-order, and would I like to reprocess the order. I contacted them immediately, spoke with an extremely friendly and helpful employee, and was assured that they would run my card Thursday or Friday.
As of today, I still don't have a charge for Over-run. I mean, I guess it's POSSIBLE that it was run...but probably not. I just got off the phone with FunPub and after relaying who I spoke with last week I got a very pleasant,"Alright then, I'll leave a note on her desk. She's on vacation for the next week."
ARRRGHHHH
That one...wasn't my fault. Cripes. Its only a toy its only a toy its only a toy...

Or in April. Which would be better.

I would assume that they wouldn't ship the freebie until after the renewal deadline, but I also thought that Runabout wouldn't be shipping for 2-6 weeks from now, so who knows?

Transformers Collector Club 2012 Exclusive Overrun and Shattered Glass Drift! After several issues with this figure, the earlier than expected shipping notice has certainly done much to mend the wounds of the painful pre-ordering disaster. Although the actual shipping date is listed as February 15th, this is much sooner than anticipated. Seibertron.com members have come forward with a shipping notice for TFCC Exclusive Shatterred Glass Drift as well! If you pre-ordered Overrun or Drift, make sure to verify your mailing address here at the TFCC Club Store!
For those of you who are receiving ship notifications, did you preorder before or after the credit card provider issues? I was able to get my preorders in the first time around, but I have not received any ship notifications yet. Just wondering if these ship in order of preorder receipt, or just randomly... Just curious if anyone who preordered post cc issues has received a ship notification?

Going by my order number I was one of the first to place an order (I was randomly dicking around in the preorder section of the club store before the announcement went up) and it looks like I was among the first to get a shipping email, so the answer is...maybe?Guitarbot wrote:

I'm just hopping its after the renewal date... since I still need to renew. Shit would suck if they shipped them out now, and replaced it with Dion.
I'm still kinda wary about their creditcard service though... considering everything that has happened.

I don't believe they are coming from overseas. I mean, I know they are manufactured overseas (what isn't these days?), but I believe they will shipping to us from inside the US.

Yeah I'm in England, and I'm highly dubious that it is runabout already. All I have is a card saying that I need to sign for an international item. This means that I need to run down to my local post depot to pick it up. But unfortunately, due to work, I cannot get the parcel until Saturday
Thinking about it, the parcel may be my Malaysian DVD of RID I ordered. Who Knows

I imagine so, it doesn't seem like even the US orders are shipping until tomorrow so I doubt they sent out the international ones already...

You spoke to Angie, I'd bet. I'm in the same boat, but I managed to get an email from her this morning. From what she said, you should get a charge on your card later this week. I'm guessing it will be after all the legit online preorders ship out, then they'll start processing the leftovers.

Friend, I don't know how to say this.... He's been gone for awhile. BUT! You might possibly find him on the secondary, so if you renew, get the freebie now....Later, you can pick up Mr. Overrun.

Seriously? Oh well. Looks like I've got 100$ that I'd budgeted to send the Club back in my pocket. I missed the sold-out announcement, obviously. Curse you busy lifestyle and satisfying yet time-consuming occupation!

Well thanks for the post. The funpub employee I e-mailed about getting my address fixed was Angie. If you hadn't shared that, my e-mail would have been sitting in her mailbox for a week, and my package probably would've gotten lost.
I e-mailed Brian. Hopefully he can get to my e-mail before my package ships out.

Thanks for the information! Yeah, it was Angie, but I didn't want to be all naming names especially since she went out of her way to help me out.

After several issues with this figure, the earlier than expected shipping notice has certainly done much to mend the wounds of the painful pre-ordering disaster.
Can someone please explain to me how a few weeks earlier shipping date has "done much to mend the wounds" of fans who have either had their credit cards run or been forced to take precautions to guard against it?
I didn't think so.

I know it sounds fickle, but when I got my shipping notice, I felt better.

Prime Evil did me a massive solid and ordered one for me on the last day they were available so I'm getting mine right before the shirts start shipping at the earliest. The only thing I'm worried about now is getting Runamuck before I move in June-July. Still this calls for a celebration!
