Although it sucks if they do, not exactly sneaky when their policy says no cancellations. Plus, I thought people escalating this issue are the ones who say they never want to do business with NY again so not a big deal if so. Not sure what else people expect to hear from them. They said they will send out orders when they get the items. Just wait. If they say something different like they can't get the item and you aren't happy with their resolution, tell your cc company. Simple and stress free.

Nope. If you want a refund, just tell your cc company what happened.

The PayPal dispute deadline doesn't matter as long as you didn't use PayPal funds to pay.

Seems to be that same 2nd one that was listed since there are only three total still. Someone keeps screwing with them on that one.

Good points @Arthurius No middlemen would be a great idea but we could get into long term effects forever. One thing would be designers/manufacturers becoming retail and marketing companies, which could increase their costs and prices. Anyways, I'm happy to see 3P getting into Macross.

$45 seems to be the price. That's what it was on taobao too after conversion. Main thing I was thinking is free shipping and rewards if we can get these from one of the shops that offer those benefits.

Haha ok. I personally don't care about anything but the toy I get in my hand and if I am a fan of anything, it's just of the designers who came up with it. I don't care what company makes it or sells it to me as long as the toy I end up with is to my liking and I get it for the lowest price I can. I look forward to everyone who waits to get their orders so we can move past this and talk about those toys that we all love.

I contacted The Chosen Prime to ask if they would carry the Fexthobby Macross products and they said yes. No word on when but it's likely these will be readily available like most 3P products. I did see them on Taobao already, seemingly sold directly by Fans Hobby.

Just balancing things out. You guys are all NY fanboios when it comes to preorder nights.

This is pretty much what I've been saying the whole time. It's highly likely that NY takes more orders just based on how long their preorder period stays open. Everyone is so quick to blast NY because they aren't the first to get their toy or some other complaint but NY still keeps offering the fanbase the cheapest options for the toys we all want and people still keep ordering from them.

Looks like a good candidate to wear the Thunder Hummer armor.

That's odd...seems like it was the same one available before because only two have come up before at Mandarake and there are still only two shown as ever available.

Thanks for the details! I guess I should check to see if my cc was charged or just authorized.

Your most recent Macross or toy purchase! General thread.

Ah thanks! Just looked at your adapters for model kits. I have no idea what to use for the F-14 I just got. I noticed it came with a Flightpose type stand. Maybe someday you can get a deal with some manufacturers to have your stands included as factory stands? Only reason I would recommend using a credit card is that you can find ones with no foreign transaction fee and that goes a long way if you are buying a lot of toys from Japan. I always pay my balances in full every month. Unless of course I have a 0% interest deal because free loans are something worth taking advantage of. -
All possibilities. I did not know about the different order limits but I have noticed AE often closes preorders before Bandai. It most likely means they have fewer accounts to order from compared to NY. Very interesting. This might support the idea that NY has several different sources that provide their TWE releases. The picture this is painting to me is that these companies have their set sources for TWE and those sources may fluctuate at times. It certainly seems like NY has an enormous resource for TWEs based on their history of always staying open past the deadline and delivering. This tells me they know they have a certain amount ordered and can keep taking preorders well past the bandai deadline as long as they know they have it covered, which is usually the case. I'm looking forward to how this all turns out because it might give some more insight as to how these online shops operate and it's an interesting topic to me considering how much I buy from them.

Nice! Is that a prebuilt model like Calibre Wings? Is it diecast? -
Nice Valk and car! Congrats! As for AE, they seemed to have filled all their orders but they also close their preorder period the soonest. If I recall correctly, they usually close their TWE orders even before the Bandai deadline. That would mean it's likely they don't order as many as other ships like NY. Anyways, a couple people have confirmed since my last post that the PayPal dispute deadline doesn't matter when you pay through them with a credit card and same holds true if you use bank funds. So, no need to worry about getting your money back if that is your concern. For anyone who's still think it's better not to wait, you know how to reach me.

Not sure how many times I have to say it but as long as you didn't use PayPal funds to pay, the PayPal dispute deadline doesn't matter. To think NY is waiting for such an inconsequential deadline just so they can try to screw a bunch of their customers (and fail) is completely unfounded.

As cool as I think this is, I'm going to complain about it some more. Wish the missiles were more standard canon looking reactive missiles.

I have a pending order. They're not closed.

Very good advise. We are all just having fun here but when it comes time, there are people who will put things in real perspective. We can't be responsible for anyone else here and just have to assume we are all adults who can take care of ourselves. Many of us joke about exploding wallets and selling organs for this stuff but again, just jokes. If this becomes a real problem for anyone, best thing to do is get off the internet and reflect on your real life. For me personally, I don't care about money...I hate it and the whole system we live in that puts it above all else including our own lives. But I understand the need for it in our reality. I live my life how I want and don't worry about the money part. If I need more money, I just make more money. Not everyone can sustain that lifestyle though so you have to look at yourself and your own perception of reality. -
What pay later option? I didn't see it.
