Official Ghostbusters PKE Meter Prop

I'm no programmer, but the "waiting room" business is a load of crap. Even I can write a cookie that will refresh your page automatically every five seconds until you make direct contact with my server. Whether you choose to wait the five seconds or manually refresh like mad is up to you. I personally refresh like crazy; that's how I got in. Unfortunately, I am running into an "error 1001" screen when I try to pay. This has happened before on this site; it's a Digital River glitch well known to those of us who collect Justice League figures on Matty. I just need to log out, log in again, and reorder. With the White Screen in between each step, of course....
 
Got mine. Accidentally added two more to the cart than I wanted to, but I didn't want to have to sit through the page refresh so I just bought them. The whole process took about 10 minutes.

It was advised to me to have a few pages open. I manually refreshed half of them and let the others load via the Matty system. They all pretty much loaded at the same time though.
 
If someone will order me one, I'll give them an extra $20. I've been sitting here for 20 minutes on 2 computers and an iPod Touch and it just keeps refreshing. The one time I got in, I put in my address info, hit the "continue button" and it went back to refresh. I have to get to work. If you get one for me, email me at stkstrm@aol.com and I'll settle up with you. If by some chance 2 or 3 of you order one on my behalf, don't sweat it, I'll buy them all for the same deal.

Thanks,

Gary
 
I finally gave up. I just went onto ebay and bought 2 for $75. Oh well. Still worth it.
 
I'm trying to amuse myself by imagining MattyCollector, the cartoon character, getting gang-raped by nerds, while making that cocky smirk on his face.

Anyone ever try this before? What happens usually on slam and cram days? Do these white boxes ever go away?

All too many times thanks to my DC Comics toy obsession. The White Screen will go away when traffic dies down. Depending on traffic it can take up to an hour; my record wait was an hour and 17 minutes but that was on a big "Masters of the Universe" toy day. That was when I tipped to the trick of manually refreshing despite what the site says.
 
I may have one for sale guys, I ordered one and realized I put an old postal code. I then went back and ordered again with correct information. So i may happen to get two and I really only need one.

So pm away guys and first one will get mine if infact I do end up getting it lol.

I am actually contacting customer service to fix first order, so its a good chance it wont be a problem
 
yeah if we could at least get an updated status of the stock, wed know if we need to keep sitting here or not
