>>2316620 It's not going to update but don't worry, it should still arrive, if not BBTS is pretty bro. When this mistake happens it almost never updates. I had this happen to me once and called them in a panic, they said it would update, it didn't. The next day I got the package.
If you send out a package make absolutely sure they scan it in so the tracking number is "active". Sometimes they are lazy and decide they don't want to do that. Specifically request it if you don't see them scan it in.
Luckily my local post office isn't a gigantic clusterfuck so the people there are nice, do their job properly and don't need to be asked. I've heard of some places giving people a hard time over it though.

>>2316628 Thanks.
Now, could a lesser person take advantage of this, ie. file a claim it never arrived etc.? I won't...probably. I'm sure it will arrive but I see flaws in this.

>>2316630 I've seen complaints on eBay forums regarding it. However, eBay is the buyers friend even in cases where the buyer is clearly scamming or lying their asses off. It's hard for a seller to ever win a dispute on eBay. You are a lot less likely to get away with such nonsense with PayPal or standard credit card processing.
Also, the thing you have to understand is they will scan the package once it's delivered. The tracking is essentially worthless but unless something goes horribly wrong (someone doesn't do their job) they WILL scan it upon delivery. Then the system will finally update.
If they don't scan it on delivery I suggest you call the USPS and get that guy fired by complaining up a storm. The last thing we need is lazy mailmen who don't scan packages upon delivery encouraging scammers to screw over people.

When I read this thread I get the feeling that the US post is awful. I mean there is some stuff with some postmen wrong here too, but usually every normal package is insured to a certain amount and they don't drop it off somewhere if nobody is there.

The only time shit ever goes wrong is when I try to get a package from England. I swear, there must be some sort of bad blood between the two, because I can't get things shipped for a reasonable price or with tracking, and I've lost two items through that(Half a black Unicron: the main body. Wings and minicon arrived fine. Other was some Mighty Max shit) and everything else takes like 2 to 3 months even with reasonable shipping.

I'm pretty sure they were only available through ganbaride machines. you might as well print out your own.

>>2316616 Ah, I see... As a somewhat fan of the show, I wanted to collect all the main Decade cards, meaning to say his Henshin, Slash, Blast and Final Attack Ride card. Weird to have all of them included with toys except for Blast...

Quoted By:
>>2316618 Henshin comes with the belt(duh)
Slash comes with the Ridebooker(as you know)
Illusion and blast never got made. A lot of people have made recreations though, so it wont be impossible to find.
Final Attack Ride card came with the Final Attack Ride Decade figure, so that might be hard to find.
I tried to do exactly what you're doing when the series came out OP. You're best just to find some quality card stock and recreate your own.

Just snagged this guy from the Balls*Mart clearance toy isle. He is quite awesome. Though it would weigh him down too much for urban fighting, I wish he had a way to carry all the awesome gear he comes way. Either way, I was glad to snag him. I need to get a bunch more. Who else found something awesome recently?

>>2316226 he wasn't rare, people were just lazy about buying him until well after the fact.
Anonymous
>>2316477 He was sort of rare in brick-and-mortar stores in a lot of regions. Wave 2 hit right after wave 1 and because of the glut of Arctic Destros / Dustys most stores didn't stock the wave 2 revision assortment w/wave 1 figures that was meant to help compensate for the quick release of the second wave.

He was uncommon, but if you came in frequently, you'd find him at least once a week or more.
