What happened there was due to the long wait, people cancelled their Harley orders so he had extra ex's and he put them up for sale.

I laugh when I hear anybody talking about long waits. All you have to do to get over that is preorder something from PCS. HA! Fully paid Juri and she is over two years since that.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Yeah, I don't remember Harley being that far off, unless there was a delay I missed. The PO cut off was in mid August and I thought it was supposed to ship in December. It ended up shipping late February.

Wait times never bother me, once I’ve got my preorder in it will get here when it gets here! I’d rather it take the time and be done right rather than rushed to meet a deadline. That being said while I may be flexible with time lines that is not the case with quality, god help you if I’m paying good money for a shoddy product or damaged due to chinchy packaging! Luckily I’m in good hands with Tweeterhead as everything I’ve gotten has been top notch.

Chad mentioned on his facebook live videos he will be giving himself more time for statue releases he has been a little over aggressive on when they will release. I think generally the waits have been very reasonable and he keeps us well informed.

While I agree that delays due to improving a product are fine (eg DC Melissa Benoist Supergirl statue), giving companies preorder money for 1-year-plus is like giving them an interest-free loan.

Yes because all those licenses rights, artists and factories work for free until we the consumer pay for the product.
