OK so I preordered my Encore Omega and encore Starscream ( which they have on stock already) with Transfigure toys.... that was last 23rd of January , paid immediately by wire transfer the next day - in FULL and an email with the receipt details. That payment has gone through successfully as verified by internet banking. received a reply from them same day that they will immediately verify and contact me when the payment has been in their account ( which I KNOW IT DID BY NOW). Didn't make contact or buggered them when my delivery will be. Coz I presumed it will take like mebbe the LATEST the transfer will get is the Monday of next week - 28th. BUt Im pretty sure it was already in their account as of 25th - Ive made enough wire transfers to know that it did, surely ( ebay has a lot to do with it). Then I receive from them an order update saying still awaiting payment!!!!! WTF!!!! Sent them just now an email copy pasting my my original email with the bank receipt (updated) from St george internet banking system. .... Fact is whats bugging me is this nagging feeling that Im gonna get f@$*d again by this same company ( although new owner) with regards to their service and I really had a bad time with the previous owner.

OK so previous order story ( that is why I said hating again) MP Megs and Kissplay cassettes.... sent me MP megs... didnt contact me for ages to confirm that Kissplay will NEVER arrive and had to emial incessantly just to get a freaking refund! Refund happened , but really if I hadnt contacted him he would just gone off and never even bothered to offer it in the first place?!?!
then these new owners keep sending out oh so many email promotions re: change in management etc etc.... now situation above comes and as I ve mentioned Im having a horrible gut feeling Im in for another bumpy ride... but Im still hoping for the best coz if they botch this one up AGAIN. O H#%$ with them!!!!!

By all means my Encore Screamer should have been status - sent ( via post) or along the way thru post already but NOOOOOOO status AWAITING FREAKING PAYMENT!!!??? HOW slooooooooow are they!!! :mad::mad::mad:
It wouldve been faster had I won an auction from ebay!! My goodness!
Sorry guys for ranting but this is just one of my pet peeves!! With the way they're starting to act up - I might just get my OMega eventually Xmas next year from them :mad::mad::mad: seeing how slow they are - that is if they dont get bankcrupt again...

MOds please transfer accordingly where this topic may be appropriate

I had huge problems with the new owner too when I bought the upgrade kit for 'the figure who we shall not name'.

I figured that it was a stuff up on his part for being new at the business despite a lot persisting due to unanswered emails and the like. By now for sure he should be up to scratch on how the business works to provide a decent service.

Liege, try to get your money back, don't risk it and preorder from Fan2Fan or HLJ. I would gladly make an order on your behalf and you can transfer me the money when they request payment for it.

Yes SW omega is months away but they are taking pre orders and payment for it now. So I paid up front and now they are saying in the update of my account ( status) still waiting for payment which really riled me off as I've already paid them the very next day they required it. And the fact that Encore Starscream is in their possession already ( stock ready) I would have expected it delivered by now. BUt nooooo after a week already past, they update my status still to not yet paid - WTF and where would my deposit be?? They cannot claim that they haven't received it coz as per internet banking ( st. George) data it was a successful transfer - and I didn't get any of their account #s or anything incorrect as I copy paste account /BSB # from their message to me. I have always had good feedback even in my 2 ebay accounts of due to the fact that I pay immediately as much as possible so I can budget the remainder of my cashflow easily.. I will sort this out with them Kup. BUt I will take you up on your offer as well. If it appears they stuff me up at least I have backup and If they manage to pull through.. THIS wil be the LAST time I ever transact with these people. Plus it wouldn't hurt to have two minty Omegas :D. Please tell me how much would I need to transfer to your account Kup. I should be able to do it this payday, if its not too late for the HLJ preorder ( crossess fingers). MAny many many thanks Kup, your a lifesaver!

$70 for Encore Starscream & $65 each for Ironhide & Ratchet :eek:

i paid $70.49 inc shipping from HLJ for both Ironhide & Ratchet

the only thing i'd consider buying from them is MP-05 if i didn't have one already

most scalpers have better prices than they do:cool:

hey liege, did you follow up with communications after the transaction?

not that I have had any experience with them, but I'm finding even on ebay, each time something is done... you need to communicate.

anyway, it doesn't appear that they are a reputable company to deal with.

just a thought, liegeprime... I thought Transfigure has moved to Sydney?

looking at some of their items on ebay.. and in the description it says...

Day time pick up location, Banksmeadow, NSW.
Night time and Holiday pick up location, EPPING, NSW.
Pick up detail will be provided via phone call.

perhaps can go and hassle them :D

NO need as the email had them heads up and awake already... they already sent .. quickly i might add - Encore screamer ( see acqui thread) with a little extra. Hopefully though when Omega goes in stock I dont have to go through another ordeal. But then I got a backup plan thanks to Kup.
