Good to know, I haven't heard anything from them since I placed the order. The order status has remained the same: processing. Did you receive a shipping email or anything?
I received a confirmation email on my order the day of. Maybe they were flooded with orders after mine and cannot process them?

Guess I dodged a bullet then?

I ordered mine right when this thread was made, and it came in the mail yesterday. didn't get a sipping notification or anything, it just showed up. the sale is storewide so it's probably just swamped with orders? I may have gotten mine so quick since I ordered so quickly

My charge back will go threw in 3 days if they do not replay. Im sad because I had some great stuff and cheap, but not willing to gamble with 300 dollars. I ordered on the 6th.

OP here.

I saw some people started worrying about the seller, so let me tell my experience.

Before I found this sale on their website, I have purchased from them several times. It usually took 2-3 weeks for delivery - a bit longer than other internet retailers. But in the end, they will send the item to you. I hope this helps. :wink:

No, I have no affiliation with them ... but I felt a bit responsible for those who were dissapointed with their service. :(

No problem

Post by evilanimation » Mon Nov 23, 2009 9:48 pm

I am one of those people who are burnt about there order so i am just angry about it, so I apologize for the accusation. I spent 300 bucks and its been 3 weeks, and nothing, no email, no phone, no nothing. I'm trying to do a paypal charge back but ill know in a couple of days on the outcome.

yes what bugs me is the lack of customer service......i don't care if they are going bankrupt, are swamped with orders, take 4 weeks to ship etc... . if they're busy ok. if it takes 4 weeks i don't care, but a simple reply to an email should be the least they could do

it seems like they are most likey are a small opperation and due to the bankruptcy they probably have very few people working.

Everything I ordered arrived yesterday, and amazingly it was on the exact day the UPS notification from a couple weeks ago indicated.

Ya True, This was my first order and my last order. Nothing should take 3 weeks to process. But note it will take 2 weeks more to get your money back. Its a jacked up process all together.

now this is just wierd......you look at the exact listing and notice they've still listed it as "in stock" but notice the price has gone up to $4.99 as opposed to $2.50 from before.

http://www.toyrocket.com/Indiana-Jones-C359.aspx

now, look through the IJ category.....notice the item is not listed :shock:

that's concerning

I don't understand a lack of patience when it comes to these clearance sales. After all, the items have been available a long time - if you cared to get them quickly you would have bought them already, right? When I am lucky enough to score great deals I give some leeway in delivery time. Who cares how long it takes?

For me it is more of the time frame and complete lack of communication making me wonder if I will ever receive my items. With Paypal I have a limited time to recoup my money if they have taken my money and ran.

The above post is correct.

Post by evilanimation » Wed Nov 25, 2009 12:52 pm

Digger i have a JSI f-14 to sell you at a clearance price of $50, but its will take 3 years to get and in that time i will not replay to your emails, phone calls or messages sent by pigeon, I may even die in that time but since its clearance it should be no big deal correct, you'll wait right. I need it paid in full up front, lets make a deal.

**This was a joke!! Doesn't that sound ridicules, well that what is happening to us.
