Keep trying. My wife's computer uses FireFox and she could see the add to cart button. I am using Explorer and couldn't see it.

and I used Chrome with no issues at all.

God, that was awful!  I picked 3 and hit 'add to cart', but nothing would go into my cart!!  I freaked and pulled out my old laptop, thankfully it was sleeping, and not actually shut down.

I wonder if it's something with this new laptop and/or IE9.

Wow there are 660 sets, that ought to take a while to sell out. What was the number of prior sets?

I had to go to a different computer to get it to show up. Very weird. I did get 3 sets though.

So with 660 sets and 2 bio's per set, that's 165 bio-sets of 8.  Series 7 only had 71 sets of 5, so these should actually be easier this time around if my math was correct.   


As long as we don't get doubles with our 3 sets you should be able to find them on ebay fairly cheap.

No joy here. Still no add to cart button. :(
I had the same problem....go back to the main Topps Online page, and start all over again selecting Entertainment -> Wacky Packages _> etc.

Holy Cow!  I was on the phone with Hipton when we both discovered that the Halloween wackys were there for sale!  We were talking about Erasers series 2!

Maybe Topps site is just overloaded. With 660 sets, I bet they're there for at least a few more minutes!

I'm glad I didn't break my computer when I couldn't see the add to cart button.

660 sets this time. We should be able to order more than 3 sets.
I agree...what was the total number of Halloween 2010 sets, 300? Hi Neil, with 660 sets this time around does Topps have a plan to open up the number of sets to unlimited after a certain time period if they don't sell out within a finite time window?

Thanks! Fatso

Yeah, that would be pretty nerve racking.  I was fumbling around trying to enter my credit card info before something happened and the site shut down.

Me too. I was freakin' refreshing to get the ADD TO CART to appear. Tried logging out, refreshing cache, etc. Had to switch from Firefox to IE although I added an eraser series 2 box earlier using Firefox. What up wit dat?

Last years Halloween series had 500 sets.  Even at 660 these will sell out very fast though.  I'll be surprised if they last a couple hours.

That's funny - I added a series 8 box to my cart earlier with IE, but I still can't see the Halloween PC ADD TO CART button using IE. I didn't purchase the series 8 box when using my wife's computer because I didn't want to waste any time!

Ah, don't be so sure.  I lost out on last year's Halloween set and had to be VERY patient before getting a set on ebay for 109.  Several went before for well over that price.

That is weird. This sounds like a cache issue but like I said, I refreshed my cache. Hmmm. I didn't even try on my iPad using Safari. It has troubles navigating the Topps on-line store site. Some of the drop downs won't show values. Jeeez, its frantic enough trying to "beat the clock" much less play what-web-browser-will-work-this-time.
