[[BEGIN NERD ANGER]]
So, I've been a member of GIJCC for about a year now, and between their seeming lack of knowledge of upcoming Joe items, poor and expensive newsletter, and lack of figures on their shop I've kinda had a nagging with them for a while, but today takes the cake. I got my Sting Raider and HAWK, and to my dismay, each figure's box had a gaping hole in the side! Now, luckily for me I guess, I'm a collector that does mostly opened figures/vehicles, but this ridiculous. What makes it more ridiculous is that THEY KNEW IT WAS SHIPPED THIS WAY! The figures were sent in a Wave 01 09 case with two of the four missing from the box and paper-padding around my figures. The box itself had NO damage whatsoever. Furthermore, it frustrates me to no end that they charge me nearly $12.00 to ship this box which they just reused and took over a week to ship once they got my order. *sigh* Needless to say, I'm thinking there is very slim chances of me renewing my officer membership in February.

I'd cancel it.
From what you're telling me they're not to use full with anything Joe wise. It also looks like they only give you grief. |

The only positive thing I can recall is A) getting a free figure (that you can buy) once you sign up and the one time they did get a special on the SDCC 2008 exclusives (Black/Blue CC and mini SE w/Timber) for $50.
Other than that, the newsletters are always behind what I can find here or on other sites, and is (IMO) very overpriced... |

I let my membership run out in October. I tried it for a year but was just really unimpressed with their operation.

Dude, that sucks. I hope you don't get charged a restocking fee if you want to return or exchange it.
I too let my membership run out in October. I just can't justify the high cost for a monthly newsletter when Joecanuck is free. Last edited by CG76; 12-09-2008 at 08:37 PM.. |

From what I remember, the news letter, from time to time, will include "exclusive" images of upcoming products that get released a few weeks later to the masses. The GIJCC really isn't worth much if you don't plan on going to the convention or spending a lot of money on their site buying merchandise, honestly. |
