rdrunner Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Just now, Kyp Durron said: Yeah, it is ridiculous, but I was serious when I said I'd call to have that site put up here as buyer beware in a sticky, if it hasn't been done already, I never checked, lol. To be fair, during previous POs when Shizuka and others were very active in posting live links to PO pages, they had labeled Nin nin game as a seller with "questionable reputation". Were they ever my first choice to order from? Absolutely not. But I have had good buying experience with them over the last year (better than another company that gets discussed a lot here), and so I thought I would place a PO and see what happens. Worst situation, is a drawn out fight with them with CC company stepping in to enforce a refund. But if they are really going to play the bait-and-switch game, that will be it with them for all of us. I think what we should do around PO date is to let other know how each of our orders turned out, and try to take a count of any PO cancellations, as solid data for future users when they decide whether to PO with them.

Kyp Durron Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Issues with this transaction? You have 180 days from the date of the transaction to open a dispute in the Resolution Center. ^ This is why I love Paypal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the silver lining (assuming the worst for now) to all this is that, we have a credible group size to give future MWF users feedback on this company, on how reliable they have been, and either way, I believe it will be useful data for others to make PO decisions in the future. We just have to be diligent to report back on our PO experience with Nin Nin in November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chronocidal Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Welp.. we'll see how this goes for the next few months. Right now, it's looking better to just repaint one of my Hikaru 1S copies. Will match the fast packs better anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yami4ct Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Yeah. With that length of PayPal protection should be zero risk here. Only way I can get screwed is price difference from when they start showing up on Mandy and when they decide to give me a cancellation. If they try to frakk around I’ll just PayPal dispute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're prolly competing with scalpers. either that or sentinel just makes a crap ton of them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
