Re: FP Causality CA13

I've ordered two things from BBTS in the last two months and never got hit by customs. They were Platinum Predaking and the three triplechangers (Sandstorm, Blitzwing, and Springer).

Re: FP Causality CA13

I guess if canadian members would like to get ca13 at the early bird price and don't want to get customs fees, you're better off ordering from A3U since Automaton is sold out. A3U are in BC so no customs and shipping fees are flat rate of 9.99$. BBTS or TFSources shipping fees went way up last year. I'd say almost 50% more so your better off with A3U.

Re: FP Causality CA13

I have no clue what the hell happened to TFSources shipping fees. The day they started the free US shipping, the shipping fees went up. I do enjoy ordering from TFSource from time to time but I always feel like us non Americans are paying the price for the free US shipping promotion.

They wanted $26 shipping for CA-13. BBTS wanted $18 I think and I went with Captured Prey that is only asking for $13.

The biggest issue is the elbow part, the rest are very good. Just like I noticed at TFcon, the elbox is very hallow and looks weak, because it's the thighs of those two members.

Re: FP Causality CA13

It is my understanding that FP has solved the elbow issue for their next combiner.

People just look for any reason to hate.

$80 was a pipe dream. $100 could have happened if the e-tailers didn't get greedy.

-SNIP-
Not $80 lower but not $120 high and definitely not $150.
Not to try and stir any shit up, but weren't you the one that was telling everyone the $80 price claiming to have insider info and that the individual bots were priced higher than they should have to supplement the cost of Motormaster? I mean people get misinformation and make mistakes but that is the problem with rumors- make too many bold proclamations about rumors and you end up with no credibility.

Re: FP Causality CA13

I told you what I was told. TFCon 2012 FP said $50 and $80. I always knew $50 was a good price for the limbs but way too low a price for Deisel.

During personal chats with FP I found out that Deisel would cost more but they were working on a deal with etailers to get the price lower. I was also told that the limbs high price (and I agree $60 was high) was to get the Deisel price lower.

I also know that the talks with the etailers failed and at TFCon 2013 it was announced that Deisel would be $120. I know what FP could sell him for and I know that etailers are the one being greedy not FP and that CP (who I buy from and bought Deisel from) is not being completely truthful when he says he can not offer the loyalty discount because his profit margin is less than 3%.

Yes I said $80 because FP said $80. Inflation was horrible between 2012 and 2013 which is why prices went up.

I see people bitching at FP's lower prices and they praise TFC's super high prices for over sized deluxes with cheap engineering and mistakes that were made with Hercules.


Nothing I ever said about FP was ever rumour, they were facts and the facts changed with the passage of time.
