I don't think anyone was 'blaming' them, rather just seeking confirmation.

A lot of online stores take upfront payment, such as AnimeExport etc. It probably helps to keep their prices cheaper (AE is even cheaper than Amazon JP!). It's a bit of a pain for customers if you don't have the funds then and there. One suggestion to PC may be just to let us know about the price of upcoming toys that will be available for preorder so that we can start saving up earlier, then when preorders open we can just throw our money at you.
