Seibertron.com is a Transformers fansite. It is not a fansite about 3rd party products. I do NOT care for 3rd party products. I am TIRED of seeing the stuff here on this site. That's all it comes down to.

Here's what I think happened. Keep in mind this is my own oppinion based on what I've seen.
Last time club exclusives were available (Seacons and Nightbeat), BBTS picked them up very quickly, undercuting the club store's non-member price by about 20 dollars for Nightbeat, and IIRC about 50 bucks for the Seacons.
Seacons sold like hotcakes and I believe that BBTS' stock of them sold out faster than the club's. Of course BBTS had a smaller stock, but I think you see my point. BBTS took money away from the Club. If they had 100 sets of Seacons, then that's 5,000 dollars that the club, theoretically didn't get. Of course this is hypothetical; there would've been a mix of members/non-members purchasing them, so we'll average it out to 2,500 dollars per 100 units.
Fast forward to 2 weeks back, when Counterpunch was being touted as a sure-fire sell out. The Club could have realised 2 factors. 1) Most fans are online during the weekend and 2) BBTS and other resellers don't typically operate on weekends. This lead to (IMO) the club getting far more money from non-members paying them. Since P/CP sold out my 11am monday morning, BBTS didn't get the chance to secure any stock.

+1, hope it will be cheaper since it is a deluxe.
