Sideshow Newsletter access?

[slynger]

okay, who broke the website . . . seriously SS, this is getting ridiculous. The website won't even load now. It loaded once but I couldn't even login. If it aint broke, don't fix it. Your upgrades are becoming scary downgrades.

 

[Kuzeh]

Yep, can't access either...
Is this due to high traffic? Any big pre-orders today?

 

[robomorph]

I've never been able to access the NL since it was supposedly upgraded. I get it by email now but it's impossible to access it via the SSC website. I've sent emails to CS about it but no response. So frustrating!

It's the 150 free 1/6th boba fett figures they are giving away in the newsletter with the freefett coupon in it. It's KILLING the site bandwidth right now.

Any chance SS can get their website sorted out. How long do you need? And how are international collectors ordering the new pre-orders? Nothing is up on the site. Are we expected to make expensive international calls?

still same thing now really tired

Sideshow seriously needs to consider changing their IT vendors. For an online retailer, their recent spate of IT related problems is cutting off the main links between Sideshow and it's core customer base.

Maybe this is why the figure prices have been going up. How much money can your IT department cost(milk) you when they have been "upgrading" this website for how many months now!?! Those IT guy must be laughing all the way to the bank and it just keeps going on and on and on. Totally Ridiculous!!!!!

May just be a clever way to circumvent all the affiliates
