Hi, has anyone bought from Action Robo before? I have seen them mentioned recently on FB but haven't tried them. I may have heard them mentioned elsewhere previously too. I think they are based in Hong Kong. Looking to see if anyone has any feedback or stories before I think about plunging in...

Action Robo is very good. I used them a couple of years ago with no problems.
Also been to their shop in HK and the owner is really good.

I used them as recently as last week. They took a few days to post but other than that I'm happy with them.

I've spent way too much time on these chargebacks. My bank is giving me the cold shoulder on this last grand. I don't know what to do. This company sucks.

Mr Lam and his wife run the shop in HK but they also have a day jobs they both do plus look after their little one so little delays can happen.

Ok cheers, good to see some.people have used them. I ended up making an order with RK instead as they had a couple more things I wanted but i will definitely keep an eye out for this store too.

I go into their shop semi-regularly.
As mentioned, they have day jobs so even the shop is only opened for limited hours (after 5 pm).

Whilst I haven't brought stuff shipped from them (I buy in-store) they are definitely a legitimate shop/business who have a very good reputation on the ground here. I've always found them to be happy and helpful although can be a little over-priced on their official Hasbro/Takara stuff compared to other stores nearby. Sometimes I will pay the higher price if I can't find something at my other regular haunts or for the peace of mind of legitimacy.

Got an order from them today. All good on speed and handling, though I wish they had a set-currency option on the site rather than defaulting to US$.
