Re: Northmen Collectibles - not impressed
I guess we're so passionate that our emotions get in the way.
I once met up with a board member for a deal and found out he messed up my order. In good faith, I paid him the full amount, took home the part of the order that was right, and promised to meet later for the rest.
When I followed up with him several days later, he wrote me a long lecture on why I shouldn't pester him. Even though I was the wronged party, I suppressed my anger, stayed focus, found in the lecture the words "I'm working on it", which was exactly what I wanted and responded with "Thank you for the update."
To his credit, he apologized the next day for his behaviour (due to other circumstances) and closed the deal.
I think it would have turned out badly if I acted on my initial reaction.

Not if I can help it!
Can I bump this thing like a sale thread?

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
NMCToys has Scorponok up for PreOrder @ $249 with an ETA of June. Looks like the same re-issue run that BBTS also has up in the US. He was $299 at TRU unless you got him on the clearance price of $249.

I've noticed the 2nd releases are cheaper. This also happened with Jetfire 2nd release that's also up for pre-order.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
Be careful with NMC, I've heard nothing but horror stories about them in the Star Wars community.

A. Scorp was 249 at Tru. He was never 299. 20% off he was 200. Couldn't tell you about Jetfire other than his MSRP. Was 119.99, but Tru bumped his price up to 129.99 (did the same for sky lynx). Amazon kept him at the 120 mark when he was still readily in stock.
Scorp was never 300.
B. Northmen collectibles are absolute trash. I have my story. Other tf collectors, marvel, etc, all have similar. Horrible owner who goes off on people and notoriously poor at fulfilling preorders.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
Ah you're right. I got him at 200 not 250 from TRU. Should have double checked my numbers before posting.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion
Products show up 6-8 months after everyone else gets them, if you contact him to ask where your stuff is, he goes off and is quite rude, and if you want to cancel a pre-order, he charges 10%. One person in my Star Wars group said even when he was unable to get the product, he'd only offer another figure, or a refund minus the 10%, for a figure he couldn't get.

Yeah, no point ordering from NMC. I have 2 orders from them that were supposed to be released months ago and they still don't have them. I'm going to try to explain that to him and if he tells me about the 10% fee, I'll just open a Paypal case. Funny thing is too, if you look at the site, everything is literally a preorder, even stuff that's supposed to be released. Sorry for the small rant, just making sure people know a shady seller.
