Any trick to ordering from Gentle Giant?

I know it is.

Someone over at RS actually posted on the message board the web link to the order pages.

It's not a fun experience that's for sure. I'll wait for the dust to settle and then offer up my Shock Trooper to a board member. Glad I got the Mara bust, I hope she's not the only EU character they do.

next time we need to set up a system to send out a pm to all of us for these as soon as one of us get the email it actually went out at like 3 but didnt find out until after 4

Email, what email? Still dont have one. I got my order comfirmation email. I tried to add it again and it said it was there for all of the email address I added.

hmm, so can u get more than 1 of these busts? it seems w/ all the BS and hecticness w/ me trying to order, i may have ordered Mara twice. do they have a 1 per card/address policy?

 

[jason2885]

I got one in one account but not on my school account. really annoying. Im glad you and loki both got one and everything is good. Well hopefully when they ship them we can :chew :chew :chew :chew :chew :chew

Yes they have a 1 per household order but they should just cancel one order I would think. I ordered Mara and cant wait to get her now.

I still haven't got he actual e-mail from GG. You need to get on the Rebelscum list. Although some of them got the e-mail and did not forward it on. I'm guessing they wanted more time to order it themselves. Too bad the shopping cart didn't work.

Then spideymike forwarded it and the links did not work. By that time they had already posted the links in the forum.

from GG e-mail:

- Previous online releases have been met with non-Collector's Club traffic attempting to order items and the resulting crashing of our online store. In an effort to curb this, we are sending this email with the link to the product page all at once.
- Limit one per person, per order. Only one order will be accepted per Collector’s Club member per day. Any attempts to place multiple orders with the same email address, ! ;shipping address, or credit card number will be canceled without notification.
- Due to our contractual requirements, we can only directly ship Star Wars product to the U.S., Canada and Puerto Rico.

I never have registered at RS. Too much argueing and not enough disscussion go on over there.

I never have gotten the original email in my college account not the order email. I only ordered one set of them. I did forget the bust up though.

Well, I was worried that I wouldn't be around when the Mara bust went up so I gave in and bought one off eBay two weeks ago. Now I was able to get one today at the regular price, so I guess I will stick the other one back on eBay and try to get some of that money back. I wish I had just a little more patience, and I wouldn't get myself into situations like this...

 

[jason2885]

Im surprised Mara is still available. I wonder how many of these were really left.

 

[jason2885]

How long does it normally take for an order from GG to ship.

I already have my Luke on order now through Fireside.

I found a 501st for $70 does anyone know anywhere where I can get him cheaper

Luckily I lost a couple auctions and was able to save some money. Usually I dont have this kind of luck but it worked out for me this time.

 

[jason2885]

Mara is now sold out.

Amazing! I'm a Collector Club member and still don't have my e-mail from them. Since I was able to get at SDCC, I wasn't going to attempt to get the Malfoy, but had planned to forward my e-mail to those who I knew were still hoping to get this second chance. Very very unfortunate. I had encouraged folks to join the Collectors' Club for just this reason. What's the point if GG can't do this right?

 

[Mookeylama]

well w/ alot of people not getting the email, i'm really glad i made this thread so as to at least alert some. it was my 1st time ordering from GG and i must say i hated every second of it.

also seems i did order 2 Maras so watch both get canceled w/ my luck.

 

[jason2885]

Thanks I was about to go out to the gf when I saw this thread. I guess we were one of the few who got an email.
