I just received this email:



Hello all,

Due to the high bandwidth demand for the Transformers' Club and BotCon products, we had been forced to take the store offline.
Currently, we are awaiting sizing by our ISP to move the store to a larger server. We don't have a time frame on this yet.
In the meantime, we are deactivating the BotCon and Club Exclusive products and we are turning the store back on so that people can join the club.

Thanks for your patience and support.

We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your enthusiasm about these products and will provide you with an update when these products are available agian.

They should just turn the fax machine back on and take orders that way.

That's a joke TFCC - please don't actually attempt that. Or do, it would be pretty funny.

 

Things did seem to run more smoothly back when they did it that way. Plus, the threat of someone breaking into their online shop to steal personal info was non-existent back then.

 

Based on their recent performances, the amount of people doing that probably won't absorb much bandwidth.

 

 


....and let the games begin.........................




NOW!

 

  they cannot catch a break! Shit man.

 

^ That's a pretty distorted perspective. There's tons of criticism about the Club here. It's just that some people get really really MAD BRO about it and threads just become pages of toxic bitchery.

 

Days later and they still don't have a time frame on when the bandwidth will be adjusted? Wow.

 

Nope, not at all.

 

TFCC Store back online?

I think the store is back online for Runamuck. I already got one the last time they went up so I cant test the checkout process. Seems they are offering first class mail now

I swear, it's almost like they enjoy the abuse and provoke people to get more of it. I've seen bigger places go out of business for lesser things, so it absolutely boggles the mind as to how or why these guys are even still allowed to run this shoestring operation.

True but before there was an actual message at the store saying it was offline. i got all the way to the complete your order stage,

 

2012: Not the year of TFCC.

 

Still can't handle your own website, eh TFCC? Maybe you should just sell your shit on ebay.

 

But then they would have to accept paypal.

 

Got my second Runamuck from the other day before the meltdown. They at least shipped fast

 

Got my Runamuck in the mail today as well. I went with Priority Mail if that helps anyone guess shipping duration.

At least my spare Runabout is happy now...lol
