Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I’m not ready to panic yet and assume that P1 is just trying to screw us. They have been pretty consistent with prices and this is a strange time... if shipping keeps getting higher I will worry about that as release gets closer.

This was their response which is fairly reasonable. Hopefully things will be resolved before this guy ships. He'll probably be delayed now anyway...




"Dear Customers,


We sincerely apologize for the sudden increase of the shipping fee. We are aware that drastic increase of the shipping cost for current items may be the reason of your dissatisfaction.
Unfortunately, the shipping fee has been increased by the courier companies due the pandemic, which is why we also had to change the shipping price. Also, we may have some system error on the shipping quotation for some of the products which we are currently investigating.
We will do our best to provide the best solution for all customers as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and stay safe.
Sincerely,


Prime 1 Studio"

No-one knows mate - not even PRIME1.

Their website says Aug-Dec 2020 but my guess would be Jan-May 2021 (a 5-month delay) given all the crap the world is going through.

I would be surprised if this shipped out in 2020.

I think they should’ve ate some of that shipping increase. Maybe they did. Who knows.

Someone in the Prime 1 FB group posted the response they got from the company.

Apparently the shipping rate update was meant to apply only to items currently available to ship, but due to a system error (I'm guessing more of an oversight) the change was applied to all items. The increase was also more drastic than intended in several cases. In light of this, they'll be going through each product individually to come up with updated rates.

If the cost is still too high, they're willing to hold items until it goes down again or cancel the order and refund the NRDs, customer's choice.

Prime1,
Fire up the production line please,
Statue Forum is waiting for the BG Cover art jungle version

From the 'comics pred line' only the Cracked Tusk has ES set (they lowered EX ES from 500 to 250?)

Unfortunately, The 'Big Game Predator' for this jungle pred still not known..

Wonder if this is due to a lack of preorders.

Maybe everyone holding off on the Jungle Hunter because it lacks an ES and they think it'll be abundant will actually cause it to be scarce.
