Jazzinc 1/6 Batman 1989 Batmobile

[Captain Clown]

Yes.
I was able to move up into an earlier batch by paying off my Batwing.
IIRC, they contacted me via email to give me that option, I assume due to either cancellations or earlier batch customers needing more time to make payments.

Awesome, thank you.

Question for the expert jazzinc buyers,

This is my first purchase with them, I jumped and was able to secure their little 300 dollars NRD upcharge. Anyways, when I preordered, my payments fo rmy plan was 116 bucks and some change. I wake up this morning to make my monthly payment and its 249 dollars. Has anyone seen this before?

How many months did you set your payment plan? Are you backed up with the monthly payments? That 300 doesn't count towards the monthly due.

Everyything is fine.

For some reason, the system thinks I am behind, but I am not. I was clear past the threshold for the NRD. I was just shocked. I just paid it just to avoid any issues, but now payment are 99 bucks instead of 116 for the next 8 months.

Same thing happened with my account. I was past the threshold but was still billed $249 last month which didn't seem right. Then I saw future payments scheduled at $99, so I just paid it to avoid the hassle of trying to readjust the pay plan or what not.

The payment plan schedule doesn’t matter, as long as you pay your balance off by the end of the plan you’re fine, you do not have to pay every month. If you want to have a chance at moving up a batch, pay it off quickly.

Joost has explained this before. The system works as:
You place a pre-order with $100 deposit and the system calculates the monthly payment.
When the NRD changes to $300, the system recalculates what your monthly payment would have been and where you should be at this point if you had paid $300 in the beginning. So the system now thinks that you are behind and that is why you get a large payment.
For example: You bought the 89 Batmobile for $1500 on a 12 month payment plan. $100 NRD leaves $1400 over 12 months or $116.67/month. After 4 months production begins and the NRD changes to $300. You have paid at this point $100 NRD and 4x$116.67 or a total of $566.67.
But the system now assumes you to have paid $300 NRD which changes your monthly payment to $1200/12 or $100/month. Based on this schedule you should have paid $300 NRD and 4x$100 or a total of $700. The system believes you are behind by $700-$566.67 or $133.33. Month 5 payment rolls around and it will be $133.33 that you are “behind” and the additional month of $100 for a total of $233.33.

You can make up the “behind” portion in one month or use the whole payment plan to “catch up”. Nothing will happen to your order as long as you keep paying.

If you wanted to you could wait till the last month of the plan to pay it off completely as long as you’ve paid over the new NRD amount and nothing would happen to your order. His payment plans aren’t strict like Sideshows, the dates don’t matter if you’re on a manual plan instead of automatic. Automatic plan will charge your card every month on the listed date without fail, this is why I preferred manual.

So can we can delay some payments to get in the later batches?

I’m currently in the 3rd batch but want to push back into the 4th and final batch - not because I can’t afford to pay but I want to put off the shipment as long as possible.

I currently don’t have the space or display cases yet for the Batmobile - still need to make a Moducase order and move some furniture around.

It might be a better idea just to reach out to him and simply ask if he could put you in the fourth batch and continue to pay the man the money you owe him like you agreed to. That way, both of you could plan for it.

I was told from Jazzinc that when you’re on a manual payment plan, the specific scheduled payment dates don’t mean anything once you’ve paid over the $300 NRD. All that matters is it’s paid off by the end of the plan.

You can either continue with the dates, pay it all off in the last couple of months left, or pay it completely anywhere in between. This is not to get to be pushed into a later batch, you either pay completely by the last scheduled date or you lose your order.

 

[Captain Clown]

I’d be safe and still make regular payments. JazzInc’s website mentions that you have to make a payment at least every three months, or it could get cancelled.

Definitely this.
Joost is so accommodating regarding payment as it is, and they are a small family owned business. Don’t **** them over by withholding payments regularly.

If anyone has one of these signs for the 1989 batmobile they're willing to sell, please let me know.

Thanks!

I recently watched a YouTube video featuring the Batmobile 2022 by Rudy’s 1/6 World. In the video, there was a mention of loose wheels on the model. I'm curious to know if this is intentional design or a defect? It seems some people are considering canceling their preorders due to this issue. I hope Joost will address this concern, as I believe with the current strong support, this vehicle could really put Jazzinc on the map. I'm eager for the 1989 model to be excellent. And of course I look forward to updated design on the front turbine. Joost please take your time for this vehicle.

 

[BigWayne]

I have this vehicle and it’s absolutely not an issue. The wheels are big, they’re heavy, they’re well supported, and they’re fully posable. It’s interesting that someone would use the term “loose” to describe that. There’s nothing that’s actually going to come apart.

If there are people that are really considering canceling their order over that, then I would suggest that they were probably already looking for an out on their preorder. I suppose when you make a bad FOMO purchase decision, it saves a bit more ridicule to say you’re cancelling over some non-existent defect, rather that admitting that you were a sheep caught up in the moment. Such is the way of social media, I suppose.

. . . but if that means someone is going to be able to sell me one of the jazzinc signs I’ve been after. . .
