I got excited by the news, though the "get prepared on funds" part gets me all cringy for some reason. :lol:


Have you paid in full too? I was confused as well, like I already paid, why are they telling us they will take the balance then. They started flexpay back on June 27th. So June,July,August, 3 flexpay periods, everyone who did that should be fully paid by now.. I paid off early and was expecting an email about when its going to ship. Waiting this extra month is gonna be tough. ](*,)

I didn't use flexpay. They charged me an initial deposit ($20) and the remaining will be taken from my card by the time they are ready to ship the statue.

I've received mine yesterday. I've yet to open it because I'm travelling and asked someone to pick it up for me.

Box intact so far. Really excited about it, but that price still... :shock:

I can't believe it! People already got it delivered and I haven't even recieved a payment note yet. Nothing!
But of course F4F is not hesitant to send me mails about what stupid shit they got up for preorder like every week!

I friggin payed them a fee when I preordered!

In that case you got to act fast and call them right away. I heard from some people who ordered from f4f before that when their final payment charge doesn't go through initially for whatever reason , the order is given to the next person in the waitlist.

EDIT: Actually I was checking, and I didn't receive any payment confirmation as well, but a shipping tracking number was issued to me.

I ordered the LE Lan Di statue the first day it became available.

I even received a Dark Souls statue offer email today,but have yet to receive a shipping confirmation email as well.

Maybe I got lucky and had mine shipped earlier. If I were to give an advice, to be certain I would check my credit card statement to see if payment went through (should be pretty recent) or contact f4f.

^I just checked my credit card info page and the payment hasn't gone through yet.

On the F4F site it still lists my order as "pending".

Pending is way better than either cancelled or payment declined. I wonder what's the holdup... It's not like they are making one at a time given their sweatshop like manufacturing scale.

I see the same thing "pending". Well, they can't just try to take the money and expect me to have it on my credit card without giving any info beforehand.

I wonder if they just stretch out the shipping country by country a lot. Where are you from, sand4fish, if I may ask?

December. It just wows me what they're doing with the statues. Or rather not doing...

Crazy, just stumbled across this topic and shocked to see that a few people have already had their statues nearly a month already. I preordered as soon as they went live, and fully paid up like a year ago...

Don't quite understand what they're doing lol :-k ....like no particular rush...it's been ages since they were announced, but just seems unusual that they'd send them in in drabs like this...surely they would send them all out at the same time?
