That or they just weren't ready, servers are still borked. I have been able to access a few category sites like Canto where they have an exclusive, but the exclusive isn't listed just the regular books.

It was on twitter, kind of confusing that a couple of the exclusives are available. I know some titles like Canto are popular with scalpers but I'd be surprised if so much sold out so fast.

I was able to fight the 502 errors and put the My Little Pony issue in my cart (the not Transformer one) and then enter my shipping address. Now I just have a spinning circle that hasn't loaded the shipping cost. This is on the same page you enter your address and then calculates shipping based on address. I can't reload the page to make any difference because then I enter my address again and get the same spinning circle thinking about maybe working on calculating shipping costs. I've let the spinning circle think in the background for 10 minutes now while I go about my business and nothing so far. I'm not sure how anyone got to this stage and had the website work long enough to check out. Even if scalpers got 10 of each item, selling them out quickly, that's still 30 people that were able to get the website to work...which is doubtful. So maybe there is still hope that everything is not sold out.

This is like BF for Fandom.  All those gateway timeouts and not being able to check out is par for the course on BF.  Many of these companies are small.  I doubt they have the internet infrastructure to handle much volume.  If large companies can be brought to their knees during a sale event like this, little ones don't stand a chance.

Add to that all the people using snipers, buying bots.  A sale like this can be sold out in a few seconds.

Yep this is the difference between having a real comic con ticket.. and a free for all. We have no chance.
I am hoping Lego doesn't do an exclusive.
