oh i see. i rarely order from amazon or ebay. the last time i did, i got a knock off when i wanted the official item. ;-; so yeah, i don't trust those sites all that much. at least, if i want official merch. if its for random stuff that is unbranded, i suppose i'd be fine.

I've had issues with ebay a few times before so I rarely use it. So far I only buy little figures from japanese sellers.

Amazon, I had an issue with a seller and learned to keep an eye on seller reviews and item reviews. Amazon refunded my money that the seller took from me and i haven't had issues since.

This issue is a Post Office issue as the post office is known for losing packages, and this time it just happened to be mine =A=...

I don't blame sellers for things the post office does, though it seems a lot of people on amazon will do just that. Terrible seller reviews just because the post office lost something or was very late in delivering it.

I see. Well I rarely buy stuff online unless its from a trusted site. Of course, its hard to bootleg something like a raw manga or light novel so I'm usually fine when it comes to ordering stuff.

Wow you’ve certainly had...issues. I’m glad I’ve never had that before. Apart from this time. But I’m just hoping they’ve got some strange shipping schedule or something.

xD yea..

UPS emailed me, they said that their scanners show they handed it off to the post office so there's nothing for them to do, for me to contact USPS, which I did, the same day. just waiting on USPS to email me back =A=

With the holidays, it could be that they haven't been able to get to your order yet to ship it? o3o I know sometimes places get overwhelmed with holiday orders.

NISA, they shipped my order.. I got it.. then they emailed me telling me they shipped it the next day x'D

I hope you get your stuff soon..

One website that I know that is FULL of fake stuff is WISH. o3o, it's terrible...

Yeah that’s what I thought. I notified them just right now though, just in case.
But yeah fake stuff is bad. I want the official stuff if it’s specifically merch for an official series. And especially for models and figurines. If it’s knock off, you can always tell by quality. And I want the best quality. If you’re gonna spend the money, of course you want the official stuff.

Yea, best to email/call and ask about it then wait.

Some of the stuff on Wish is so obviously fake it's redic x'D

Some dude in.. LA i think it was got arrested recently he was selling knockoffs of all sorts of stuff. >x<

I saw a few people report some sellers on amazon and post in the comments about the knock offs. to only buy from so-and-so that xxx shop sells fakes. It's good that people post about that to protect others.

Yeahh. Well lets hope they get back to me soon and I hope its just me being paranoid and they're just busy because of the holidays. XD;;

LOL I wouldn't know but I'll take your word for it.

That's nice of them. To inform others. I specifically checked on the original merchant's/brand's website to see if they had international retailers I could buy from. Never gonna trust some go-between site again. xD;;

The figures I saw on Wish, I could see them on rightstuf as well.. there were cracks in the plastic that shouldn'ta been there.. in places that made it funny to look at.. x'D Like, no wonder they were 80% cheaper x'D 20 bucks for a 200$ or so figure?! haha



Some official websites aren't safe to use either, Mom placed a 73$ order at Tommy Cash's official website (Johnny Cash's baby brother) .. This was back in August, I just put in a request for a refund today through paypal as we never got the order. =A= We called back in October, spoke to Tommy's wife directly... never heard back.

I can't wait for Amazon to extend their food store thing that uses foodstamps (EBT) in my state. it's set up in New York so far.. =A=

We have trouble getting transportation so online shopping is nice
