When this idea was announced, I was really excited about it/ When the list leaked I was committed, even though I only wanted 5 or 6 of them. But as time went on, and the delays after delays, bugs in the system and what not, I am now not so sure if I want to participate. The price will obviously be high, and with prices going up in all our lives, an example being fuel going up to nearly 5 dollars a gallon by Summer, and what not. I am unsure. I Also think if they cant get the bugs out of they're system in a timely manner, then whats to say there may be more problems down the road with the actual delivery of them? I dont want to wait until we're in 2013 before finishing the service, and judging by the delays now, I see that as a possibility. I am still on the fence, and was wondering if any input from fellow tankers could help me n a decision.
so what do ya'll think? |

See the thread about the credit card issue.
Right now there is no decision to make as they said they won't start the FSS until the current credit card issue is resolved. At that point, then there will be decisions to make. But the prevailing feeling is that no one trusts the Club right now and they'll have to do alot in order to earn that trust back for people to feel comfortable joining the FSS with a credit card.

For myself, its not on my radar anymore. The club has sooo many problems right now that I don't want to risk it. Heck, if they switched to Paypal payments, I would still be anxious about if they were really secure or if there was some kind of worm in their system. They are a long way from earning my trust.
My decision has nothing to do with price or how many figures I liked in the FSS. It has to do with the club. They are pushing like they want the FSS to come out soon - probably to recoup some of the capital they put into it already - but right now it would likely be an abject failure. They are going to have work out A LOT of bugs and earn people's trust over time to make this happen.

um wow, I hadn't looked at that thread since it started a few weeks or so ago. So I had no idea that's what part of the issue with the club was. having read that now, ( Thanks Troynos for the direction) I am even more cautious about it. I wonder if maybe getting the ones I want off of e-bay or tanker trade might be safer, and cheaper in the long run.

Couldn't care less for the set now. I was really pumped for about a month but now with the credit card fraud, the long long wait I am not interested. Also I am getting a full voltron with 6 figures for roughly the same price which is baffling.
I am fully aware of why a GI JOE figure could cost upwards to $32 shipped each I just don't think I need toe participate in awarding that price. So much other things in the world that I could buy instead of a Tan Grunt.

No. It was more like a gutshot.

I will pass on the FSS as well, Not only because I was hit with $4000 in Fraud charges that I'm still dealing with my bank on. but the figs are way over priced and they way over charge on the shipping fees.
