I said ultimately, not timely or within estimated delivery dates. Don't get me wrong, I am still waiting a lot more than most people, but I also trade it off against the low prices I am paying.Quote:

Everyone adds their cut. So unless PC is in the top five of sellers they won't be getting much, and perhaps they may get what the secondary (and later down the line) distributors can't sell. Interestingly PC many months ago said they are one of the players that gets to "sit" at the Tak/Tom table, somehow I don't think that was entirely true, much like a lot of their statements; but one thing I do sense is they don't plan on going out of business anytime soon, so offering refunds is a smart way to go.Quote:

I swear the only useful thing coming from this thread lately is the boost to our post numbers :p
Damn, the secret's out!Quote:

Something changed. :mad:
I agree. What changed was their volume. They went from a relatively small customer base to a huge base within a few months.Quote:

I just hope at least my dirge arrives on time...had to sneak his pre-order during a work "break" and I surely hope I was one of the first 50 or so people...but I'm dreaming.
Lets just hope come the 15th things start moving, we know they're still sending stuff, just not the stuff we went there for it seems.
To grow has been scotts intention the whole time. Unfortunately he did this with no foresight. Throwing out cheapest prices, energon rewards, coupons, vouchers, free shipping, competitions, you know, all the shiny stuff that easily attracts customers, yet never gave any thought to how he'd service those customers when their numbers grew and assumed we'd be happy waiting indefinitely in the dark.Quote:

Still waiting for grapple 😴
