Re: Northmen Collectibles - not impressed
Seems like distributors should allow stores to reduce their preorder numbers if a figure gets significantly delayed. Though I suppose if the manufacturer refuses to allow the distributors to reduce their preorders in these cases then that’s the origin of the problem. Basically the manufacturer should lose preorders if they delay the toy, as that’s their responsibility. If manufacturers pass the risk to distributors (won’t let them reduce preorders when there is a big delay) then it seems like the distributors pass that issue right along to the stores who then pass it to the consumer.
The negative impact of a delay should be borne by the manufacturer, not the consumer, not the distributors, not the stores. Feels like a broken system.
