Criterion Collection Store

Site's down for me.

Shoulda preloaded your cart and blocked off noon exactly to check out like sane, completely normal people

[therewillbeblus]

Same, it went down right before I placed my order and reset the cart when it went back on. Now officially under maintenance.

[Roger Ryan]

I was able to fill my cart, but couldn't place the order. This is the first time that's happened to me.

[What A Disgrace]

At long last, my F5 key stopped sticking.

Hah, exactly what I did, mainly because I figured something like this would happen. This is far from the first time a flash sale's crashed a vendor site.

Also, I splurged like hell - I still have a tax-free address, but with the way things are going, I'd expect that to end fairly soon so better take advantage of it while I still can.

I did this per usual, but then just as our department meeting was ending early as anticipated, my boss strolls in for a surprise visit with her newborn baby, pushing the meeting late and ruining my Criterion plans. Thanks, baby.

Indicator would have never let this happen

I'm confident that there's an Emily Post quote somewhere in Etiquette outlining how best to explain to young mothers that you're busy trying to buy a silent film about devil worship

[Boosmahn]

It'll probably be extended a bit, if that's any consolation.

[Bumstead]

While we wait, what are you guys/gals buying?

Before the crash™, my dreams contained:

BBS STORY boxset
KLUTE
1984

I'm a modest dreamer.

[Roger Ryan]

When was the last time a flash sale happened the same day that new releases were announced? Could that have screwed things up?

[FrauBlucher]

I will be surprised if announcements are today. I think they will wait till tomorrow.

[Lowry_Sam]

It's Up. But good luck trying to log into the site.

[agnamaracs]

I will be surprised if announcements are today. I think they will wait till tomorrow.

I say they postpone the sale until tomorrow and make announcements Thursday.

[Lowry_Sam]

They might have to given that the sale announcement seems to have overwhelmed the site even more than usual.

[swo17]

I was finally able to place an order

[FrauBlucher]

Kino knocked the CC site off line. They just announced their Halloween sale

[Roger Ryan]

Yeah, I was able to place my order fairly quickly a couple of moments ago.

[fdm]

Aha. Kept refreshing and kept getting the same error (that and using the wrong URL apparently). Starting from scratch, looks all better now. One last order to go.

[black&huge]

The Tati set is now unavailable. Seeing as there's about 16 hours left has there ever been a restock after a sell out for anything from past sales within the same sale period?

[swo17]

No

[DarkImbecile]

Flash sale extended to 2PM Eastern today, for the procrastinators among us

Just an fyi but as expected most of the bluray new releases are unavailable now.

[domino harvey]

Criterion still loves me, got a free Priority bump again for my order
