I just received this from Blitzway:

Dear Customer

Thanks for the order and very sorry about this late response.
We will forward your order to our European Distributor, www.heo.com

I just received this from Blitzway:

Please complete the following form if you want to request a business account.

[Shoo]

Yeah, I already e-mailed both Blitzway and heo about it. I'm awaiting their response.

I received this:

Dear Customer

Thanks for the order and very sorry about the late response.

As you may know, since this product is quite big, shipping cost is too expensive as well as high customs fees.

We are now about to make an agreement with North American distributor and if we forward your order to them,
you don't have to spend lots of money for just shipping and customs.

Besides, the distributor may provide payment plan which we don't.

Please understand the circumstance we have and wait a little bit more.

Please do not worry about your order as your order is accepted and the product will be delivered to you whatever it takes.

We will keep your order till we get a distributor.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any question.

Best

Won

From the email I received, it seems Aus/NZ peeps might have to go through an unknown (at this time) Australian distributor. Blitzway seems to still be working on it.

 

[mrchris]

so you pay blitzway for the statue/or the ''found'' distributor for your country (uk/eu for me) and you have no idea who it is till you get an email saying here's the retailer who will ship your statue at $599.99? (after blitzway ship to them 1st).then you still have to find out the shipping cost from them...crazy

 

[Lawrence]

To my understanding, it simply sounded like we'd be dealing directly with the distributer, once one is found for us. I don't think we'd be paying anything to Blitzway directly.

That's the way I'm reading it anyway.

 

[Centurion]

So it is true. They launched the figure prematurely.
The fact that they admitted to not yet having a N. American distributor is disconcerting to me for obvious reasons.

Yes, that's exactly what is meant.
Geez, that could be anybody: SSC, Diamond, etc. Hell, BBTS might just buy a few hundred direct from Blitzway.

 

[mrchris]

so we can PO. AND not pay anything for 5-6 weeks till retail sale going by what blitzway are saying..my concern is will the distributor stick with the $599.99 price or bump it up?

 

[Shoo]

Yeah, I already e-mailed both Blitzway and heo about it. I'm awaiting their response.

Just got this new mail from Blitzway:

They do retail sales, confirmed by their CEO.
They will contact you and do not worry about your order.
It will be delivered whatever it takes.
We will keep your order till your order completed.
In case you don't get it, we will provide you directly.

I hope they do contact me soon, as I don't find the last line very reassuring. If I have to pay shipping from Korea, I'll probably pass.

That's an absolute joke to be honest.
