Cancellation fees for SSC do not makes sense. I understand retailers charging the fee because they order a set quantity and if you back out then they are screwed with it but this is SSC's own product, not to mention the recent cancellations (if that is what they are) are based on SSC's incorrect identication of the edition size and by their own admittance its fully understandable to cancel not because of flipper but REALITY. If the SSC Exclusive and the Regular are the same price which they routinely are then why not get the EX? Its free. If you nabbed the ex and see a skyhigh ES then common sense would tell you that it will most likely be found on the secondary market for less not to mention if you weren't that fond of the Ex you can go through an AD for less.

If you cancel with SSC they are still getting the product because its all shipped to them anyway and they'll just sell it on their site, I don't see where a cancellation fee makes sense unless it were specifically in play to get real hardline baselines for determining edition sizes.

I order a lot. I cancel about 40% of my Pre-Orders due to multiple issues or even because I go the AD route or sometimes skip it in preference of another item. If SSC started charging fees and I wanted an Ex the simple solution would be not only not to order but just wait for second chance which has become almost a given on popular pieces.

It'd be hurtful to SSC because instead of trying to get something and making it work by the time of shipment people would just all in all pass and since it isn't really hurting SSC's bottom line since Edition Sizes are all predetermined and at any given moment you could have x amount of 1500 or 2500 in your warehouse at any given time it doesn't make good business sense either to push people towards getting away from even ordering a piece.

also agree with your points mike, i guess this has been talked about to death before and ssc seems to be happy with the status quo, so i guess anyone that doesn't like the ES when it should be about the statue in the first place needs to get real imo..

Who cares about cancellation fees ... let the collector cancell if they want to! The ES will be the same anyway.

If SS decided to charge cancellation fees, I would seriously cut back on my orders. I too cancel probably about half my orders, but I order a lot, so I'm sure SS appreciates the orders I do keep. If I knew it was a gamble and I'd be losing $20 here, $20 there, it would really bother me and I probably wouldn't support the company much. Keep the policy as it is now, and if SS delivers what's advertised and doesn't saturate the market with too high edition sizes and I'll probably be a collector for life.

Ditto, and well said.

Totally Agree. This is why I dont use Flexpay. I always forget to pay and lose $20.

Do you guys get a rush ordering stuff?
I don't understand a 40-50% cancel average...seems you guys dont have a grip on your wallets or just don't know what the hell you want.

Unfortunately some cancellations are justified when ssc final production pieces don't match the prototype. Toht fail anyone?(even though I kept him )

I think that's exactly it, the rush of getting an order in. I PO allmarvels except dios and then decide what still fits in my collection. Other stuff sounds good at the time, but when it comes timeto pay for it, if my tastes have changed or ES is too high and I know it will be available for less later, I'll cancel.

Finances aren't usually the reason i cancel, my wallets doing just fine, thank you.

lol, harsh. But you gotta give them credit for rasing the ES,making SS rent out bigger warehouse space, and giving us future discounts on items

 

[Eli26]

I believe that everything from Sideshow at this point will be hollow no matter the mass, height or girth of the statue. I think we've seen our last of the days of a solid mass as the Hulk that and probably the savings on shipping cost from Sideshow to us fellow Freak collectors.

Can you imagine the cost to ship Abomination if he weighed 63lbs, not only the weight then added customs and other expenses the US does not have like Canada?

Having said that about the Hulk PF, as solid as he was, his base feels hollow and cheap. The base is every bit as important as the rest of the piece.

You're welcome. I try my hardest.

Now let's talk about the ethics of flipping while were at it.
