Pre-ordered Venusaur on Ami, still trying to find a Mewtwo at a decent price. Hoping my Charizard will be here next week!

You might want to just snag one off the bay or something now while they're not too bad. my gut says these will be climbing...

sucks that Venasaur is sold out at BBTS, don't think I want to order from HLJ or AmiAmi as I know they like to blacklist people etc.

What do you mean amiami likes to blacklist people? I haven't ordered too much from them just each of the pokemon pieces but I never heard anything bad.

Apparently when they send you the final invoice to pay, if you choose not to pay or ask to cancel,they blacklist you. Which prohibits you from ever ordering feom them again. I can neither confirm nor deny this.

In all fairness if it's true, I'd do the same to online buyers if I had a negative experience with a transaction...

 

[Darth Vader]

but they blacklist you if once you order you cancel at all that means for example you have 2 hot toys and a figma on order and even if you cancel just the figma from the website that's it they delete your account and ban you.

Blacklisting buyers? Eh I agree and disagree with it. I understand why you would permantly turn someone away, but then again you might end up losing revenue in the long run.

There has been many times that BBTS got something I ordered in and I cancel, but they keep the money and it becomes store credit and I end up using it eventually. But there has been times where they took my money and I requested it back and I got it, but it was legitimate since I didn't have enough in my bank account to survive for the week until I got paid

Not that extreme, i cancel stuff on HLJ every so often and am fine

 

[Biojex]

Apparently Amiami will sometimes give you a warning before they blacklist you.

 

[Privyet]

What if SSC blacklisted Ppl that would suck

 

[blood]

the more people they blacklist the more chance you have on scoring a pre-order on some figure

 

[Biojex]

that IS true.

Hey guys do you know how reasonable shipping costs are on ami ami? just went to make a pre order for venusaur but it says shipping costs are calculated after order is placed and don't wanna get burned!

 

[Biojex]

What shipping method did you choose?

I reccomend small air packet as it's only about $10 and arrives in about a week.

Sweet man I went for small air packet so that's a relief, thanks for that, shame I gotta wait for August now for it to be released!

Blacklisting? Not out of the norm. I block every single buyer on ebay who asks mundane questions, returns an item, does not pay, etc.

I've also been on the receiving end on another small hobby store. I bought a diecast Lamborghini and received it with minor factory paint chips. I asked for a return and it was accepted with no questions asked. I tried ordering another item a few weeks later and it was cancelled.

QTF. You have to be this way, buyers will @(@! with you. I'm so sick of dealing with ebay and all of the ##*! buyers. Who bids on something for $40 and then asks for two+ weeks to pay for it? B/S! I had a buyer win four things from me and only pay for two, after ten days. This was after constant polite but firm messaging on my part. Just to get rid of the head ache I said I'd cancel the other two items, and the buyer still hasn't responded.

So you know, these stores are dealing with the same idiots we are. If you can't get your act together and know what you want, tough @(!*. We all run into problems, but if you can't budget for a $40 purchase months in advance, what are you doing collecting?

Mewtwo is way cooler than I would have expected him to be. I always thought he was a pretty boring character but Bandai made him super cool.
