I ordered this as soon as it went up on osb and still not had this yet anyone received theirs yet?
 
Yeah just I ordered mine and paid in full day it went live so would of thought I would o been first batch,
 
Depends how many he had in for the first batch. He dispatches on a first in first out basis.
If you paid in full then the preorder will have been live for a few days before you ordered and people that are flex paying will have been able to place their deposit on day one.

No offence intended folks...

I don't mean this in quite the way it sounds, but...good grief are there still folks that have not had this yet?!?

Is this the average delay for someone not ordering from SSC direct? I have no real experience as most of my more recent HT/Medicoms have come from SSC direct and the remainder from my local UK supplier.

It just seems like a really long haul, I mean it will be worth it, but...I thought I had patience!
 
Yep, still waiting. I'm not prepared to pay somewhere between £30 and £50 extra in FedEx charges per figure just to get them a few months early.

By waiting I can get an extra couple of figures per year, while its not much, it's worth the wait to me.

Well, that certainly does put it into perspective when expressed like that. It is most reasonable indeed.

One that I shall seriously consider when my current batch of POs gets worked through (most are on Flex and older than 48hrs so I would be charged something as a cancellation fee for them).
 
Yeah, I like to order early with OSB, pay the initial deposit generally as soon as the preorder goes up (to tray and get into the first batch in case there is a split shipment) and then clear the balance when the figure becomes available.

I also paid for OSB's year of shipping for £15 which runs out in April, which 8 of my preorders have been eligible for so far, saving me around £70 or £80.
 
Ok here are photos of the Stuttgart Loki scarves. I'm thinking maybe I should start a new thread for these in the "interest" area?

She sent me three new scarves, one of which was adjustable (it was pinned shorter to show two lengths). In order from biggest to smallest....I didn't do a lot of futzing with the clothes, but I did try to leave the jacket open so that you could see the full width of each scarf.

1. This is the original scarf that she sent.

2. Next smallest, this one is the same width, but about 1.5" shorter. Also looks like she used different tassles on the end.

3. This one is the same length, but she had pinned it back so that it was a little over an inch shorter. Also the pattern is smaller. So this is the pinned back, shorter length:

4. Same scarf, pin removed for a longer length. This is the same length as #2.

5. Smallest of the bunch, this one is even shorter and more narrow.

She will be watching our comments here, so feel free to post your thoughts.

I think number 5 looks the most accurate myself. The narrower the better imo.
 
send them back then ~ maybe she'll still exchange them. i ordered mine before the adjustment was made too.

To be fair, it's not that bad. Although it's probably closer to 1/4 than 1/6, the person selling them clearly was not aware. And they were not all that expensive.
I have made do with the one i have on Loki.
I'll just have to grin and bear it, lol.
