Put off a tad by the whole the bots basically form shinguards for the legs (the laziest of gestalt design), but then at 2 bots already pre ordered I'm committed to seeing this through.

I've had a POL sitting on BBTS that I haven't touched for almost a year now and it hasn't shipped... from memory the official rule is 180 days from the last purchase added but I guess they don't always enforce this.

I went ahead and slapped down pre-orders for the first two of these guys. I'll ship my POL once the whole set is out.

Huh, interesting. I guess you could probably email them and ask them to extend it anyway if it was just waiting on one single item anyway...

I've said this before, but POL is pretty over rated. At most, you're probably saving $30-$40 over an entire year by combining a bunch of tf's together and shipping them as one big parcel rather than two smaller ones.

I'd rather have the stuff to enjoy and put on display than have it languish in BBTS' storage room for a year just to save a few bucks.

we don't really have much of a choice atm with RK screwing things up with FP.

Exactly. Captured Prey would like to add a PoL feature in the future which would be GREAT since they generally have the better US-based prices on 3P stuff. Plus, Sidecutter's a good guy a spends a lot of time on the TFW boards communicating with folks.

For sure. I went BBTS this time as I remembered I already had some things sitting there from like April last year when they had their big 3rd party sale.

Im going to broke by the end of this week if these preorders keep going up at this rate

My last POL I shipped last year saved me around $45 in postage on 3 items. Depending on what your buying and how much it weighs, as that is how postage on additional items is calculated (for my shipping option, $6 per pound), it can be definitely worth it.

Think you're missing the point. Sure, there are savings to be had. I'm not denying that. But over the course of an entire year, the $40 you're saving just simply means that you've got stuff on the other side of the world that you can't enjoy.

The POL option works wonders for pre-orders though, which I completely forgot about in my previous post

I really want to ship my POL soon explicitly because of this reason, I can feel Assaulter and Function X Code taunting me with their MISB-ness..
