Before selling out RK and some other HK-based resellers were the first ones to receive shipment, so perhaps the producer is aiming at satisfying all the websites before going back to RK again. It would have been good/fair for RK to put up a notice indicating that they only had pre-orders for their second batch - I might have just ordered from eHobbyBaseShop instead.

I agree with you here, as when I paid for my set it was under the impression that I was purchasing something that was actually in-stock - A couple of days or a week later, I find out that I had apparently placed a Pre-Order for a set drawn from a future 2nd batch.

I put it down to a site maintenance issue, but I'm finding myself increasingly drawn to the camp calling for RK to update their Website infrastructure; Sure, what they have currently works better than FunPub's ever did but I'm certain that RK could benefit greatly from a more contemporary website.

As it stands now, it looks like I wont get my own set until late October... Seems most of my big purchases this year will be arriving in the last 3 months of the year & I don't know whether I'm happy or not with this.

I put my order in with TFS on 26/04 and I'm still waiting, despite 2 shipments coming and going at BBTS. Not that I blame TFS, it's really MT's fault for not shipping in a fair and orderly way.

RK unfortunately has always had 'Instock' for items that are opened for Pre-order rather than readily available. It is something that has long been an issue and yet to be rectified although it would be very easy to do so.
