PetarB Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 1/72 Macross ll Super Valkyrie 04/09 Hmmm... I'll believe it when I see it. Do you know how long I've been waiting on 'pre-order' status for the mk2 Valkyrie? 1.5 years. Every month, when it approaches the date available, the date gets put forward another month. It's ridiculous, and unprofessional. Quote
PetarB Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Just realised, the 'due date' is today. :rolleyes: Quote
promethuem5 Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 Petar, you realize the preorders only get filled once they have enough people waiting, right? The dates are really just placeholders... Quote
PetarB Posted April 8, 2008 Posted April 8, 2008 The dates are really just placeholders... Then why bother having them at all? They've just confused Klam here, and probably a lot of other hopeful people. I understand pre-orders need to be filled. But advertising due dates, with no intention of following through is just dishonest. Once again, some of these have new dates every month for over a year. Quote

Well, It says "Estimated Arrival Date Wednesday 09 April, 2008" hope this is ture Quote
007-vf1 Posted April 9, 2008 Posted April 9, 2008 Petar is so right about this. Waiting over a year for a given "estimate" date of arrival is way unprofessional and plain evil. Think it out of the box for a minute .. "It's estimated that your tax return will arrive in 5 days.." Or even better - "I shipped your item last week... Wait a few more days...or a couple of weeks..or.." ha,ha,ha!!.. I've also been waiting for over a year for my naked girl with sword model..man you should see the anxiety every time I see that estimated date? unfair i tell you... Quote
Fly4victory Posted April 9, 2008 Posted April 9, 2008 I got the VF-4 over three years ago. I have been waiting over two years for the a second VF-4, VF-11, and VF-2SS. Wonder if I will have to reorder. Thanks for the good news. Quote
VF-2SS-BloodPhoenix Posted April 11, 2008 Posted April 11, 2008 Hmmm... I'll believe it when I see it. Do you know how long I've been waiting on 'pre-order' status for the mk2 Valkyrie? 1.5 years. Every month, when it approaches the date available, the date gets put forward another month. It's ridiculous, and unprofessional. Hey PetarB, I have the 1/72 scale VF-2SS kit if you're looking for it. It's unassembled and I only attempted a minor excess shave on one part, but didn't do much else with the kit. Let me know if you want photos. Quote

Oh I wish I wish that e2046 would get these kits.......and the date is now april 30 or may 10th..... When it's in stock I'll grab them, but not this preorder crap Fool me once shame on you fool me twice shame on me Quote
Duymon Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 (edited) I've been waiting on a gundam sniper kit for the last 3 years. The date gets pushed back a day after each "due date". It's been so long that I prolly will never get it since the cc I used to Preorder it expires in a month Edited April 18, 2008 by Duymon Quote
PetarB Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 RE: 1/72 Macross ll Super Valkyrie 04/09 Just got an email from Henry, telling me this kit is available and requesting payment. Better late than never....! Quote

PetarB Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Well Klam, if you're going to hold Hobbyfan to account for their 'dates', I predict this will be a very long thread.... Quote
klam1020 Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 Well Klam, if you're going to hold Hobbyfan to account for their 'dates', I predict this will be a very long thread.... Well, I just need a VF-11 Fighter but it seems that Volk009 have already given up his project Quote
