Could it be that some of you have slow internet, so the shipping calculation takes longer?

Google fiber here, no way in hell.

It's just luck based man.

 

[illproxy]

interesting all are gone now even the listings, maybe they gonna adjust make it one per? ehhh? hopin so

Weird.

Perhaps they are finally listening, if only to that one request.

That's the good stuff.

I have fiber. Well, to the power lines just outside, at least. My net is solid, I’d think.

i think only the tmnt sets were sold out before all the listings all vanished so couldn't be cuz they all out of each, really hope they changing the wording in descrip to one per for tomorrow

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

Yeah, hawkeye was still available.

 

[dmorson]

Any info on what time these went live today/will go live tomorrow? I'm in Indiana. Guessing 1pm?

 

[illproxy]

yeah i think GDT and groot were also there.

if no go on one per.i would rather then do a lottery at this point attached to customer emails that want a set but havent got one. but seein all listings gone makes me hopeful they will change to say one per.

12pm on the dot for me in WI

Honestly, a lottery would be interesting to see. You’re still playing the odds either way.

i would feel more comfortable with that, i was logged into pp and hit pay now when i was jacked this time, that stings much worse than not gettin one in lottery for some reason i think possibly.

Nah, they said 3 days, so they have a specific number for the 3 days. I'm sure they won't even sell them all at SDCC. Last year, the cartoon set was later available on BBTS.

I went only on Thursday at SDCC and it seemed like you could just walk up and get a cartoon set like it was no big deal. Bluefin/Bandai had really long lines but NECA seemed wide open. I probably should've bought one haha; I think I just got the SH Figuarts and figured I didn't need another set.

Also for what it's worth, I shared the link to that lengthy method cbulas1 (thanks!) posted yesterday on reddit and several people wrote that they got sets today using it.

It seems to work then, guys! Whoever is trying to get a set tomorrow, try it! It can only help your chances, not hurt them!

I just don't see how I could've done it any quicker. Literally all I had to do was add to cart, (wait in line ****ed me) then click on shipping (shipping wait ****ed me) then I'm at the final page and all I do is click and my CC info is saved with auto fill and the only typing I had to put in was a 3 digit # on the back of my CC. Still didn't get it...

LUCK BASED. If you're lucky the line and shipping wait doesn't get you.

 

[Jbeltram4]

The only fair way is one per customer/household/credit card, and I’d even go further to say one of only one set, so you can’t get one of each, it’s either or. I’m sure resellers would find a way around it still, but at least they’d have to work a little harder. A lottery would’ve been fair if from day one, but I can’t see many being happy with that at this point either.

 

[cbulas1]

It is true that having to wait for the virtual line or shipping methods/prices to load during the checkout process is completely out of our control. I didn't have any delay on those pages when I used my method to get a set yesterday, so if that happens to you (even if you use my method), I don't see a way around it, unfortunately.

 

[illproxy]

i bet we will get a statement via neca soon seein how they all still gone on site, must be a reason.

yeah same, literally no way i cloud have gone any quicker.

If it's luck, then it totally sucks.

NECA should really update that website for next year's exclusives, which I'm sure will include 7 inch movie villains or a few more cartoon characters.
