dont simply flame..go see first or call them first..
xl already got stock of your transformer since last wednesday.
unless you pre order or reserve..then you better call them..think it wont last that long in their shop

XL will have another shipment for transformer by ship and will arrive either today or tomorro..

just like i said above..you need to call and reserve on the very day its arrive..
if you wait..take your sweet time..people will grab it first.

i am able to buy the starscream on the day it arrive..i didnt pre order or anything but still manage to buy..early bird get the worm

and for dc..i always hate that shop..not only lousy but also no customer service one..always think people no money to buy stuff in their shop

which ignis you want? i think as long as the stuff never arrive yet..you can go ask xl if you can pre order it or not

take a pic and show dud, show your receipt as well

got many people that have pre-order from them but didnt get it yet

since you said you got it, can show ? i am sure will got many people like to see how a walk-in customer can get it before those who have already pre-order

YOU think i talk SHIT here?
if i said i got it means i got it la..
and i always take picture of my stuff and post in my toys gallery
dont simply shot people if you dont know who you are trying to shoot la bro..
go BTS then go ask sam at XL!

yes i am a walk in customer and i still get it..
cause i always do that and i get my stuff even if it a hot seller..
stay with their forum and see what arrive today..then at night you go buy it la..
or if you cannot go..call them to reserve..

next time ask nicely on how i do it..not simply come and SHOOT poeple like that!

Finally experience the rudeness of Auntie DC... in sg wang

Yesterday i went to sg wang wanting to buy a Revoltech as my birthday present for myself.

Went to d first store in front of DC.. selling d kit for rm 88, Go to Auntie DC selling for rm 85..

So I asked the auntie.. " can i have a look at this box" ( the revoltech is kept in glass display case)

Auntie: " Have a look? How u wanna look at it?"
Me: " I wanna see wats at the back of d box"
Auntie: " Usually We dont take them out one" (VERY IRRITATED TONE)
Me: " So you mean, I can only have a look d box when i confirmed wanna buy?"
Auntie : "YES"
Me: " In that case, nvrmind, THANK YOU"

I Go straight to d store infront to buy , willing to pay Extra rm 3 oso feels better than the rude service. I feel like wanna tell her that many of us has complaint about her rude attitude, n now i really experience the real thing.. But on second thought... don wanna argue with her..la
*
that bloody auntie can go to hell with her son and her shop..lol
yes stardust is their agent..lol
next time if you wanna buy revoltech and can pay RM80..then go to Time Machine at BTS..derrick's mother better than other auntie at a toy shops...lol

Hmm for my own feeling, sometime i quite don't like XL, why? Sometime the stock finish is because ppl booked, ok fine is my fault that i too late to get, so i just can touch touch and watch the box that ppl booked. Sometime not stick price on the product, if i take many box go ask i dont know what will happen after that. Sometime..... quite expensive alot.
*
ok..first..before you fire..let me explain about XL

they always bring stuff limited and most of the time they bring just enough for pre order and also a few very very few extras for selling..cause not all sutff can be sell and end up stay at the shop there forever...

if you dont want to booked or po it..then be fast..call them once the item arrive to booked your...yes they got limited stuff most of the time..but i have no problem getting anything from them also so far..

about their price and price tag..

first price tag..they do know about the price but usually new stuff they never stick price for first few days..u know why? cause they got lots of spy coming in everyday to check their prices...ahem ahem that bloody people from DC!!!

prices most of the time expensive from others you said...

you see how fast their stuff arrive than other shops? they most of the time get it as soon as japan release...so meaning they use to ship their stock by air...

other shop have to wait few week after japan release then only they can get..so meaning they use by sea...so cheaper shipment

their gundam always expensive cause of air...the same as some pvc...

so know the root first before disliking something...

I see, ok then next time i ask them for the price. VincC454 see you give out some many information XD, are you XL fan's XD.
Ops and stay cool, I'm not firing, just talking about own feeling, a shop selling a product with out price tag will give customer a feeling, what feeling? When you feel it then u automaticly know it XD.

im no fan to any shops...i will go to any toy shop if im in their area...

but whoever also will have their most prefer shop right...

which one you prefer more...bad and rude attitude shop owner or a owner that never put a price tag on their stuff

Well, my 2 cents is that XL-Shop's HQ at Tmn Putra, Ampang has the best service and range of figures.  I'm a collector of soccer figurines (Soccerserie) and I just bought from this place last weekend, and it was a breeze.  The salesperson was also very helpful while the range of figurines available were almost complete, which can be expected at the HQ.  I've been to the MVMM and BTS outlets, and let's just say the service is not that better off than DC.  However, the shop may occupy 2 shoplots, but still very limited space as too many stuff!

So my recommendation is XL-Shop HQ.  Also bought from Ult Toys @ 1U (New Wing) and the guy there is quite friendly as well.  But his range is quite limited and store is quite cramped as well.

actually both xl brand at bts and mv only use 1 shop lot...mv one is much more cramp and small...especially when they bring in new stuff...

yes ampang one service very good...but that place is very far and hard to go...not to mention hard to find..

Em does XL got pre order when going to their shop and not through online.
Like when i read a gundam model book then i go there make a pre order from them.
*
yes..xl got pre order most of the stuff..you just need to walk in to the shop and ask them...pre order price at xl usually will be cheaper around rm10 to rm20 from the retail price later on.

whatever also about pre ordering..its better for you to go to the shop rather than doing it from their website...unless you are not from kl la..then you no choice

but want to ask.. why certain shop can bring and pre-order kind of eg. Transformers item, while another shop is not?

is there any alliance for all of this shop? so that different shop untung differently..

or the shop owner got big lobang to selling the stock for his/her shop only..

else?
