I won't be purchasing anything else from them in the future that's not in stock
That's the way I feel. I have a few of their BSG items they'd made and I'm very happy with each, but I didn't order any of them based on the crushing level of feedback I was reading darned near anywhere within the hobby online that I looked. It's hard to ignore the massive majority of people responding to questions on their service.
I get a guy working in his basement, cranking out one custom order at a time, but this company isn't set up to appear in this light.
- Supplies late?
- Problems with the licensing?
- Went on a bender last night and you're too hung over to make or ship stuff?
- Dog Pregnant?
- Wife got fleas?
Hey, all that can be stuffed into a big sack marked, "NOT MY [bleep]-ING PROBLEM".
I can be patient for the time it takes, for example, to mail something, but I don't get why so many people defend this kind of business model. You give the money, and eventually, someday,
maybe you'll get your stuff. Uh, yeah... I don't roll like that. If you have the stuff to ship, let me know and I'll be happy to pay you then. Until that time, it's a normal business model to accept the risk and the expenses up front in anticipation for the payoff through profit later on. That's how all other people do business, folks!
If you want my money, you need to give me the stuff I paid for. If you can't grasp a simple concept like this, you should seek life elsewhere.
