Still waiting on mine. Has anyone on here ordered from Canada? I can't access the tracking number and this thing apparently shipped about a month ago Right here. Same boat as you. |

It’s usually worth it when you factor in the guarantee of getting one not missing it in the wild, along with not having to drive around to hunt it down and the fact that you get it a month or more earlier than retail. No doubt, there's pros and cons for everything. But also I feel it’s worth it paying an extra $8 for an elite but not an extra $40 for an exclusive lol. I missed the Mr. T so I’ve accepted I won’t get one. |

...some of y'all still complain about this despite it being explained thousands of times between case breakdowns and premium for the overnight delivery, huh? Please explain to me how case breakdowns and overnight shipping costs effect SDCC Mr.T which you didn't order directly from the factory or have shipped overnight like your regular product or your practice of jacking up the price of your exclusives to secondary market prices once stock gets low. Cause to me those things seem completely unrelated. |

Shipped a month ago and no info under tracking. Still hasn’t arrived for me. At this point I’m not sure if I missed it, or it’s still sitting somewhere collecting dust before it finally arrives. |

There’s a Pitney Bowes soulless warehouse 2 minutes from my home, and I’m just imagining Mr. T being imprisoned there.
EE didn’t reply to my e-mail about refunding my shipping, so I might have to give them a call.

...some of y'all still complain about this despite it being explained thousands of times between case breakdowns and premium for the overnight delivery, huh? Please explain to me how case breakdowns and overnight shipping costs effect SDCC Mr.T which you didn't order directly from the factory or have shipped overnight like your regular product or your practice of jacking up the price of your exclusives to secondary market prices once stock gets low. Cause to me those things seem completely unrelated. You're taking my quote out of context to a degree but I did make it in the Mr. T thread, so I guess I'll bite. My response was directly related to the couple of posts right before mine, which were talking about the pricing in general. I was more shocked to see that than the discussions surrounding the Mr. T, which is a frustration I can understand. But the 'overlord' comment is laughable and that sort of thing always has been an annoyance to me. No one at Ringside is puppeteering action figure sales to purposely make collectors upset and frustrated. For a secondary market item like Mr. T (which, is secondary even to RSC, because it isn't their exclusive), there are a few things that would factor into it but it's probably good to keep in mind RSC has to pay the current secondary market price for it in the first place, whatever that might be. Especially as, after each day and as they sell out where they're supposed to be regularly available, this just goes up. If RSC puts it up for sale either at the MSRP or 'slightly' above just to make a few 'figure-lottery winners' happy (meaning whoever can get to it on the site at that price first), we're probably losing money after getting it shipped and paying the current secondary market cost, even. I'm not going to get into specifics of where the judgement comes from as it's not my call (and frankly not really anyone's business), but it wasn't put up for anything close to the scalper costs I've seen at all (which have, since this was up on RSC, cooled down significantly, but were upwards of $100 to $125 bucks...which is too much). So, to make it available to some loyal customers who are willing to pay within a range that keeps us below some of the more massively inflated costs, RSC usually grabs a few pieces of these types of items here and there and puts them up, and it ends there. The price HAS to be set based on the current secondary market value to a degree or we will a.) have scalpers buy them back from RSC and just re-sell at an even higher price or b.) lose money and still have a bunch of folks dissatisfied that we only had a few available. As far as RSC exclusives in particular and how when the stock gets low the price goes up, I don't know what to tell you there. Again, RSC has to be competitive with the scalper market. Can't have some dweeb when RSC is low on an exclusive buying the rest of them up at a low price and then selling them for 100 bucks a pop...where does that put our loyal customer base? Most exclusives in my experience are available for a pretty long time and some even have additional restockings, so it's not like your opportunities to get them at the standard price aren't there. If someone doesn't want to pull the trigger at an earlier price that's their issue. If you want to be angry...secondary market scalpers who inflate the price fast and high on purpose and the people who actually pay that amount are still the ones you should be mad at. Anyone who can't wait for something to come back in stock in situations like this are directly causing your issue. |
