What price do you consider the same. The GG charges 250 plus shipping where other sites charge lower amounts plus shipping. So the other sites take your orders but don't gurantee it??

Yes. It's quite simple. On GG site, if you became a member (doesn't have to be Guild member which they have to pay $60/year), if you preorder it, it is guarantee. After a certain amount of time through GG, it becomes conditional. Anything left not ordered on there end are allocated to the other retailer.

For the first Sucker Punch (Baby Doll), on February 2011, GG will stop taking any orders on there site. There will be a 2 month allocation window before release date. Anything remainder will be allocated to the retailers. That means if they sold 400 on there official site, only 100 will be allocated.


I ordered one at GG & one at Mostwanted for the Babydoll. I have a feeling there will not be any allocations for this, therefore a lot of orders will not be filled within all the retailers.

So even if you pay more at GG, it is guaranteed! Its better to be safe then sorry on this. I believe this series will be hot!

Hope that helps

Just ordered through GG also. I don't care about getting her cheaper elsewhere, I just want to make sure I get one! And atleast GG guarantees it. This was the one I was hoping to get in the first place, so I am glad she was next up! Woo hoo!!verjoyed:

Its $225 plus shipping from GG with being in the club and you are guranteed your order.

While other sites may claim you will get them, they can be allocated like tons of times in the past from companies across the board.

If paying $60 is worth the piece of mind of getting them, plus seeing how sought out they are. Makes it tens times worth wild to be part of the club knowing i will get her, and a possible chance of them holding their value down the line.
