You all saw this post. Well I did write him. Over 1 month ago. Told him I was willing to order but needed an estimate on the shipping.
Two weeks passed, I wrote again. This guy "Paul" asked me for more patience. Ok
Another 2 weeks passed, I asked again for an estimated shipping quote. I mean if I ask any company located in a 3rd world country for a shipping quote, I think I wouldn't have to wait a bloody month. Well Paul replied and asked why I was in such a hurry. They would be working on it and they will inform international customers about shipping costs to their various destinations.
Guys, just a reminder. That was 5 days ago and tomorrow that endo will disappear on Chronicles homepage and it will become $ 1000.- more expensive with Cinemaquette.
So I replied that I was kind in a hurry because of the deadline.
Next thing Paul replies, that he didn't know about a deadline.... ( Ok, what exactly is Paul's position in that company again ?) He promised to look for shipping quotes and I quote "
asap". Yesterday I wrote again and offered to place an order even without knowing their sipping price. (I mean I've ordered their 1st version, so I knew the drill and what to expect) But as their webpage still had the same disclaimer "only local distribution" I wanted to have a confirmation from Paul if I can place the order. His reply was and I quote again "
Go ahead and place an order and I will authorize the purchase". So I placed my order, my credit card was charged for the $ 2'000.- deposit.
Today comes the big surprise. Got an e-mail from Chronicle stating that my order was canceled.
My deposit was refunded. I checked online and I already got a deficit due to currency conversion.
I immediately wrote Paul again and do you guys want to know what he wrote me?

So why the frenchtoast ask us international customers in this very forum to directly write him in the first place ???????
Well to moral of the story; I saved 10 grand, will never ever visit their FB page again and I just hope, really hope from the bottom of my heart that Chronicle won't be able to acquire any Terminator license at all like never EVER again !!
