Footloose is coming!
- Thread starter Monkeywrench
- Start date
The issue that caused the problem with Friday's relaunch of the store software has been corrected. We will go live at noon on Monday, August 6, CDT.
We will continue to add our older inventory into the stores each day. We did not want the loading of older inventory to delay the stores' reopening.
For the Transformers Club members: There is not anything new at this time, we are just updating your store code.
For the Joe Club members:
Once again: note that there are LIMITS on the loose Footloose, carded Footloose and signed carded Footloose membership figures.
You are limited to ONE of each (per membership account) until we see how the demand goes. We can track exactly how many of each are ordered by account. If you place more than one order, we WILL CANCEL all of your orders and charge you a 25% administration fee. Please do not try this as we want as many members as possible to get these figures at the offering price. Quantities are limited.
Thanks for your support!

Just saw that. I'm going to be doing well to dodge meetings around that time tomorrow to get in a purchase. Friday was the perfect window, but with only 3 days left at my job, the next 3 days are going to be busy wrapping things up for my Wednesday deadline.
If the stupid fuckers could've not botched this the first half dozen times...

You want a signed one? I'll get one of those (if I can, that is) if you don't mind it being scribbled on by someone nobody cares about. Haha.
If I get a second carded one with my girlfriend's account, I already promised it to Eddie. (It's essentially Eddie's membership anyways, since he got the bagged version in the first place at cost.)
I need to figure out this scalping thing a bit better...

fuck the signed one lol.
I'm not tripping. I already have my loose one. I would just sell them off anyway

Both my memberships seem to be active. I'm debating loading my CC info in tonight, you think that'll save any time? Hah. Last time I blatantly clicked DO NOT SAVE INFO, but I just got a new card in the mail yesterday so I'll be cancelling the old card once my purchase clears.
You may want to watch using the same card on both accounts though. Not sure if they will catch it and say you are buying mutables. I doubt they would considering who we are talking about but just a thought.
I have a Vanilla pre-loaded $100 gift card I plan to use on the alternate one. There's no name on the card, which I think I can simply input her name and it works.
And they can suck my ass on the 2 memberships thing... I would've only gotten one had they had their shit together like last year and let us order mutables up front instead of having to get two shitty magazine subs each month to get a second figure. It's their own fault I've got two as it is.

Well HTS will flag orders on different accounts with the same credit card. I talked to the "security department" that deals with orders and when exclusives are up and they catch it in time your order can be canceled. Not sure if the club would be the same way. Considering the source I highly doubt it. I'm surprised they can wipe their own ass to be honest.
I doubt they really can. I'm sure they will call it something else though to cover their ass. I would think they have had some legal advice over the last few months. You get one pissed off fanboy and they will figure a way to make their lives miserable.
I was finally able to sign in and get my account ready. I had to get my password changed cuz it wasn't working.
Seems like a lazy issue/lack of ability in their system that they can't automatically limit it to one per account, that's why they have to go the honor system route. I don't think they can legally charge the "admin fee" bullshit, and if they did and cancelled my order, I'd have my CC block that shit. Especially since they pulled the crap earlier this year with my CC info getting compromised in the first place.
Since I'm technically getting a carded FL for another member here (Eddie) with my second membership anyways, besides it being a roundabout method, it's technically his membership. He did pay for it, after all. So I don't feel bad about doing it.
Yeah, bet they all it "restocking fee"...I know many places charge you that on returns, and that's probably what they'd consider it
Yeah they really have to do a lot of work to see if there's been multiple purchases per account...a database query? It's not like someone is actually putting the damn thing in a box and lining them up and saying "oh damn these two boxes are going to the same house...I better put one back and charge him for carrying back to the shelf."
I wish I could say the limit is because the club is genuinely looking out for fans so they could all get one...unfortunately, its so EVERY fan HAS to sign up for their dumb a$$ membership...just looking out for their own a$$..."we care about the fans"...BS!!
It's probably as much to save them from getting bitched at as anything else, so they don't have the HTS "we let teh scalpers buy whole cases" problem.
I have this thing that everytime I see the -arama suffix added to words I'm reminded of this Video store in the small town I grew up in.
There were two movie stores for renting games and movies (NES and VHS right!) and the one called Video-arama I wasn't allowed to go inside. The owner was a dirty wife-beater wearing-not-shaved-in-a-week pedophile looking mofo and he had a small supply of legit movies and games in the front and a big ass room in the back full of porn.
And coincidentally, look how shady the Club has been the past year...

I need to find out who does their IT/web hosting/all that so I can recommend that no one ever use them ever.
