Used our local card with a relative through marriage's address in states and payment was processed. This was a year and a half ago.

I always use my card and someone else's address - whatever kindly American I can beg into assisting me. I've not had any trouble yet.

My American friends were willing to help me out by providing a shipping address, but Hasbro is unwilling to accept money from anywhere but the US, even if the goods are being shipped to the US.
They've pissed me off. If they further snub Canada by making the 25th stuff unavailable up here, I'm done. Fuck them. I like the toys, but if the company doesn't want to deal with my country, I don't want to deal with them.

As for the 25th stuff not coming up here, where did you read that? I was wondering if we were getting screwed yet again or not.

I assume these are transformers movie stuff, but they are getting a lot of new stock in.... I bet that there WM and TRU are going to be the only non-hobby stores to look at.
We'll know soon enough.

The patriot in me applauds your stance. I've "man-cotted" businesses before but the Hasbro snub is huge.
We'll see what happens. ???
(and I assumed we wouldn't get the 25th stuff - but it was pure assumption)

I hope so. I called today as my order says "NOT SHIPPED" in red - which can't be a good thing. But the very rude American phone lady (unless their call centre is overseas) assured me that the order was sent to their warehouse. I'll have faith when the order is sent FROM their warehouse. ??? Maybe I'll call my credit card co and see if they took my money. Once they take my cash I'm golden. :)
My last order from Hasbro took a while, and I live in the states. Most of the wait was my order sitting in the warehouse, waiting to go through their shipping order system.

Man, this is not good for the line if they have to blow this stuff out like dollar store toy junk.

Hey, I was at 800 posts. :shifty:
Charles, you need to remember this phrase "Please ship item as gift and declare lowest possible value". Nine times out of ten there are no problems, especially if you get your friend to open your figures in advance for you.

Besides, I wanted everything in package this time. These are going to be my birthday presents Meaning I can't open them till the end of August... :-[ I like ripping the figures off the card, there's something very satisfying about it, considering that I built half my collection out of the $2 bin...
