I managed to get all of mine through zingpopcultchure.com.au with way less drama than popcultcha this year, I didn't even know they were selling them but they are run by eb games which is owned by GameStop

They don't ship international, crap.

HUCKLEBERRY HOUND. THAT'S ALL.

It's obvious the website is ran by dingoes.

Postby **The Junior is I** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:54 pm

will it even load for you guys

Postby **emk194** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:55 pm

LOL nope. Just keep getting a blank screen.

Postby **rdgmjv11** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:55 pm

Nope, nothing

Postby **The Junior is I** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:56 pm

i'll do a lot for my sister but this is riduculous

Postby **BeefyPenguin** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:56 pm

obviously its not that easy to "prepare" for this. They take they site down to get ready for this and still this happens. There is just no preparing for this madness.

Cant compare PC to ANY OTHER SITE. PC is easly the most popular place to get con exclusives. Some of the rarest are available here at retail. I guarantee the traffic here is about 5000% higher then FP had. and prob EXTREMELY higher then last year flow of traffic.

Postby **emk194** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:57 pm

This was an epic fail by PC. Epic. Fail.

Postby **rdgmjv11** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:58 pm

There is preparing for this. You take your worst case scenario, and multiply it by 10, and beef your servers up to that level.

Companies consistently underestimate the amount of traffic they'll receive in situations like this. You'd think they'd learn.

I checked out at 7:30, it's been blank screen for the past 26 minutes! I have a PayPal receipt, but I never logged in when I checked out, so I'm SUPER nervous! I hope we all can get what we want tonight, but this is getting about two billion times more fustrating than I thought it would be!

Postby **thestewtaylor** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:59 pm

I've decided to get merlyn and grodd from forbidden planet so at least I'll have half of what I went onto pc to get!

Postby **luxunadidi** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 7:59 pm

I've gotten stuff added to my cart, just can't log in or checkout. I've done things like this a lot, so I'm fairly used to it, but this is frustrating. I wish my husband was here, he's better at this usually. I can tell you this, every time I've tried to buy something limited like this online, NO ONE prepares. Not enough. Everyone's site crashes and everything you want the most always seems to sell out right away. Lol.

I don't know that I'll give up right now, but I don't think I'll keep trying all that much - I can't even get any of my pages to load now. I hope everyone got what they wanted - or at least something they did.

Edit: It started working for me - I even got to my cart, but now I'm back to spinning tabs. Lol. Oh well. The chase is part of the fun.

I thought B&N was bad early this morning but this is a new level of fail.

Postby **The Junior is I** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:00 pm

white screen of death

Postby **emk194** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:01 pm

Not even close. Was able to add to cart and... that's it. Got to the checkout page once and couldn't get past that.

I'm no longer mad at B&N. This is ten times worse.

Thanks but no international shipping. It only lets u choose between two contries. So it looks like it's easier for Australia to get these.

Does anyone know when the green goblin will be available online?

Postby **The Minifigure Vinyl** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:11 pm

Now it says I have no items in my cart... I really hope my order went through!

Postby **emk194** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:11 pm

I got a paypal receipt. No order confirmation from PC. Not even on My Account page.

Postby **emk194** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:12 pm

OKAY WAIT.

You earned 92 for the order you just placed.
The pennies you earned are currently pending the completion of your order. You will be able to spend these pennies after we finish processing your order.

So... it went through??????

Postby **rdgmjv11** » Thu Jul 21, 2016 8:15 pm

I have everything in my cart...but I have two of one item. Not cool.

But it's moving. Very....very....slowly.....but it is moving.
