well more money saved.at least
Not quite. I got my Magneto back in April and haven't heard from my middleman since. Either I'll have to get lucky and find some other reputable guy or I'm pretty much out of luck because I'm not paying any crazy amount of second hand prices for these things. That's too bad too because XM is what got me back into collecting after several years.

Sucks for all, but at least you did manage to get Magneto, that's definitely a win. And you have a cool Legend of Zelda name, so extra win.

XM hopes and dreams are fading wide scale...

I don't think so. Most people have to understand that the world is not America-centric nor Marvel-centric.

Total BS. They should have made this effective on future orders not past orders. Holding PayPal fees because they screwed up.

I see what you're saying, but my comment wasn't about the world nor America's place in it.

Looks like a certain other industry player got their way then. Very sad that they find more time and effort to try scupper other producers (not just XM) efforts rather than putting it into their own product / QC thereof. If they did the latter then perhaps people wouldn't have looked to XM as much as they did in the first place.

I know people will say it's business and all that but it's a bit sad that it went this way. They must either be pooping themselves or have already felt it hard on their bottom line.

People will find a way to work around this so all SS will have succeeded in is one / all of the following:

a) divert some custom back to themselves (their aim)
b) pissed people off and turned them off SS partly or altogether
c) create a new industry for those based in Singapore to act as middle men.

Nice one.

Best of luck to all who got this message.
