The site must have been overwhelmed because progression time from screen to screen was very slow (I ran a speedtest and it was normal). And when I got to the end and placed the order, it did not go through. Site suggested I try again. After eight failures, I used a different credit card (the site suggested that I do this, too). I had been using the AS B of A card and it wouldn't work - tres ironic! The transaction went through with my AMEX card.

Anyway, all is well now but has anyone else had the same experience?
There were definitely issues right after the email dropped, but BAGTAG ramped up the servers and mitigated most of the payment issues within the first hour.
