Buyer protection is up to 180 days, but this case sounds like a bit of a grey area.

Shipping's increased on this one to $40 from the usual $30.
Cancelling and reordering probably put me into split shipment number 3 due October 2016.

Were you able to reorder?
I still assumed SSC have like a 2/3 week time frame for Internationalists to order and once that time is up, we can't order.
Having said that, I haven't tried to order something after a supposed cut off date.
Am tempted just to save $20.
Can you please confirm you were able to reorder the Spacetrooper with the same SSC account (after cancelling)?
I tried to order a second one and I wasn't able to do so with my account (1 per account restriction). I just don't want to be unable to order it again with the $20 code after cancelling...

That's fine, but a merchant can't willfully refund any amount of the original transaction using PayPal's refund feature after 60 days, which means it will cost them more money to get funds back to the customer. IMO, anyone taking pre-orders for items that are months out needs to offer a 30-day refund window and take a Non-Refundable Deposit for anything beyond. That's fair for everyone.
Well it is good I asked for my refund sooner rather than later then. My paypal case is closed already. The seller willing gave me a refund after I escalated the case with paypal. I'm not sure why it took pulling teeth to get the money out of them, but they held on for dear life until the end. Thankfully I have the funds back in my paypal account. I ordered a replacement Stormtrooper from an Australian site and it has shipped already.
I still kind of want a Spacetrooper still, but I will most likely hold onto the funds to pay for one of my other preorders coming out in the distant future instead. I think Luke Skywalker is what's coming up next on my preorders most likely. He is still a few months away, but since my stuff selling has slowed down I will probably keep my money for now.

Considering this guy has been out overseas for awhile, I wonder why there have been no reviews and very little photos so far?? There's even been parted out figures on e-bay for several weeks now. Haven't ordered this guy yet and even have enough reward points to get him for free! Was gonna be this or Vader. I missed out on the single Stormtrooper release (I have a Marmit Stormtrooper and Sandtrooper and still love them!) but I'm sure they'll be more opportunities for a regular classic Stormtrooper with ESB and RotJ versions as well as the new Rogue One movie version. I'm positve they'll even be multiple Sandtroopers, but I'm sure this guy is a one and done figure... And that big gun is so cool!!

I'm just sad I missed the opportunity to pre-cancel this - because I was able to snag a Trooper 2-pack via BBTS.

I have a clean chest and back on the way. If it is possible, I'm going to mod the Spacetrooper to have the backpack and hose attach via magnets.

What is this han and chewie all over again? Just got a 2-4 week email.
Got a 2-4 week notification. If anyone is having buyers remorse, I'm still looking for a second one. 
Got the notice also. Looks like this will arrive about the time Luke Xwing is due.
Can you guess which I will keep?

Ha ha, I wasn't wrong. Email this morning saying it will be in in 2-4 weeks. Oh well, $20 saving with out dollar is like a bar of gold so I can live with the extra wait.
Yes, my reorder went though ok. I had two windows open and didn't cancel my original order until I was at the "place order" button for the new one. If there is a shipping restriction to your country it will say on the product page.

Momaw what code did you use. I might try the same. Am just concerned if I cancel I won't be able to re-order. Or isn't that a risk ? Did you then get a restatement of the 8 days notice ?
8 day notice prompted me to cancel...
...and reordered with $20 promo code.
I'd been holding off applying the code as it would then add the NRD and I wasn't 100% sure. I think I might have too many Stormtroopers. Is there some kind of support group that can help? You're all a bunch of enablers.
Notice is 2-4 weeks now. Trouble in Long beach port again. Lot of trouble out there.

I didn't get to keep the 8 days. Got a notice overnight for the new order at 2-4 weeks.
