I have to admit that I was one of those that e-mailed Curt on a monthly basis to check up on the status of my ROCC pre-order. At least he gave me an estimated time of when his orders will arrive, around January and February. I'll be concerned if my order is not processed by March.

Well that is good to know. I'd rather have a suggested date given then no idea at all. It's not the end of the world if I have to wait, I just want to know that he is indeed getting the orders in. But I have to agree with you comment about March. If by then I haven't recieved my orders then I would be asking for a full refund. At that point I think I'd call it quits on collecting toys. Maybe I'd finish off the original ARAH run but even that would be questionable. I've given up on the new Sigma Six cartoon and stopped watching it. It's just like the new Transformer cartoons. They are nothing like the shows I grew up loving.

Still, I do want to see what the ROCC looks like as well as that new Hiss tank. I can't be sure what I'll do. I'd rather have the stuff I ordered than a refund, that's for sure. I love the Dreadnoks and that is part of what I'm waiting for.

wave 2 will arrive and you will all get your orders

spillspleen your post here is a slam at me and totally uncalled for.

i will refund your money asap

lmk if you want a check or paypal. im done with that kind of bs

the delay has nothing to do with when i had preorders up.

i have never screwed anyone on a preorder and i take offense to sugesstions that i have.

any issues in the past were taken care of by me at my expense. and to be honest i lose about 5.00 per order for canadaian customers so forgive me for being a bit hardnosed on this

wave 1 was delayed almost 4 months from the time they were first sold by hasbro. wave 2 looks like it will be the same and it has only been 2 months.

you have issues with my delivery time call hasbro.

they are the idiots handling the shipments. not me.

they dont even have wave 3 on their own site yet.

Sorry Curt, but I'm not going to do that. It's not anything negative perse, but I'm not the kind of guy that would post 3rd or 4th party info as truth, when I have no idea as to the validity of the claim(s) - just that I'd heard them.

[BIGFAN]

then please pm me so i can give you the facts

[morgardee]

Glad to hear from you Curt. As I said, I don't mind waiting but I was wondering what was going on. Assuming that Loops time reference is correct waiting a bit longer isn't a big deal for me.

When I meant I was screwed on pre-orders, this wasn't a shot at you Curt.  I didn't make it clear but it was Hasbro I was making reference to.  They have cancelled orders on Curt, which in turn screwed up the pre-orders I made.  Curt does make the effort to replace the cancelled items or give me store credit instead but you shouldn't have to play this Hasbro game.

But I can't tie up money in pre-orders any more.  My travel expenses lately have been around 1,500 for work, in which I have to wait a month or two to get that money back from the office.  So I can't have money tied up money in pre-orders as I may need my Joe funds to get foreign figures that come up out of no where. Pass up a HTF foreign figure like a Funskool Bat,  I might as well do this

I can't figure out why non GI JOE sites like bigbad whatever gets product from Hasbro first and Curt has to wait months later to get it.  I won't play this game as I stick to Curt for USA online business.

Guess it's time for me to jump in?

Curt, I think Stealth was referring to me, and the 'hold up' for my stock getting here - I don't think it was directed specifically at you.

Spill didn't come out and say he pre-ordered from you on this site (No clue about other ones).

I would of had no idea he pre-ordered from you had you not replied. :-)

I don't think anyone is blaming 'you' for their items being delayed.
Since you're the one that took the pre-orders, the crap falls on you sure, but you and I both know who the crap should be falling on - the folks that supply it - and Hasbro.

Take it easy on Curt guys - I've had a few (more than a few) waves show up late - IF at all.

It's ALWAYS out of my hands....... Trust me, there's a reason I don't have any DTC items yet - or TNA items for that matter.

In my honest opinion, the best companies to deal with are the 'new' ones - or smaller one. Jakks Pacific has only screwed me once....... compared to the rest, that's a friggin blessing!

And remember everyone, patience is a @%#@ing virtue. Today's hot item is tomorrow's pegwarmer. The "gotta have it now" mentality is kinda silly.

Pre-orders in general are a risky endeavour and if you're willing to pay for something that the seller doesn't have yet, you're taking a risk. Be prepared for the consequences.

Partially, you are correct Mike.

At any rate,I'd rather it just be dropped.

Hello BHT please help me out here wih this post?I do not want a flame and will not go any further than the post below?but please let me vent!!!!

Damed Viper...does it not suck to have to bite your lip?

Madman and Agent Loop are in the same loop I am...how many others are out there?

Curt you have my e-mail use it for once and I say that like everything else I do with no ill intentions!!! :shifty: I did say take your time becuse I am in no rush but I never once thought that this much time would pass. He never once e-mailed me and said anything about these figures. When I e-mail him I get e-mails like ?No? and Still Looking?.  Then they turned to? ?Hey I have the figure but no accessories.? Or ?I am making a trade for this figure but the other guy is slow? Yes I would say so? 6 to 12 moths for a trade?  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:

So now you can see from my point of view how I might feel (I Hope!!) The guy has me by the family jewels.  :x If I say anything there goes my pre-order?my two figures and I already lost some accessories.

Without stating the obvious what do you guys think I can do? (obvious is I should have cut this guy loose the first time he messed up?or the second?or the third)!

I am in a real mess now "I guess and was all it my fault in the end?"
