That zombie set is tempting

Man... those are all appealing at that price. Don't suppose there's a way to join in time to get in on the deal for those of us not already members?

The website appears to be down shortly after the advertised start time.

I don't know what I expected...

Had I not just been sent to the poor house by car repairs, I'd probably fall to the temptation of that Zombie set.

They were there at 12:05 eastern time. I clicked add to my cart on the Zombie set at $150.00 and then the screen flipped to an error message saying page not available.

And then whole site would not come up for me at all. Now it says they are out of stock when added. Oh well. I don't really have time today to keep checking for some random restocks. I guess I'm keeping my money.

Yup, terrible setup. I was trying for the transformer crossover sets. It let me put them in my cart then kept crashing. When it finally loaded, it said I had multiple of each in cart. When I tried to edit it down to one each, it said not enough in stock.

They are in Texas which means they operate on central time. So whenever they post a time one should expect them to use their local time.
Maybe that was their problem. They should have shut down the entire website until they were ready.

I'm not sure what the problem is, but they sure make it seem like a very difficult task to sell products online.

I expected it to start at midnight central time, but happened to check at midnight eastern time and the sale had started. That is when I had the problems mentioned above.
I was about to send an email to the club just now, complaining about the performance (for all the good or would do) when I decided to check the site again at about 8:45 am central time. I noticed it was showing me all specials, for both the Joe club and Transformers club, so I tried the Marissa and Old Snake packs again and it let me order them. Now to see if I get them.

The comments on the GIJCC Facebook post about the server crash are hilarious.
