Pre-orders on TFSource are added to your stack as they come in stock and payment is processed. Once you top $150, you can ship all or part of your stack for free. I think the stack is good for 6 months before they require you to ship your stuff (similar to BBTS, perhaps). You can easily cancel any pre-order before it's in stock and added to your stack. I've never tried to get a refund on a paid item in my stack before it shipped. Not sure how they'd handle that. Pre-orders are not added to the private warehouse (stack) on HLJ. Only in-stock items that are paid are added to the stack. The private warehouse is only good for 60 days, then they make you ship it. Not sure how easy it is to cancel preorders as I haven't tried to do so.
tfsource. good prices and shipping has been a good price for me too. never had an issue with them and always my go to store.
BBTS is basically the gold standard. Easy canceling, great service/replacements, and your card isn't charged till your order ships. And I use Fed Ex, only 8 bucks on most orders. TFSource is a close second, however canceling is a pain and your card is charged right then for preorders. But they do give free shipping on orders over $150, which is handy if you go the 3P route.
I preordered Hasbro Devy with them before learning that Takara Devy would have better articulation, and canceling was a pain. I didn't use Stack and I had to do a chargeback through PayPal.
Has anyone here ordered from YaHobby? YaHobby.com - The Online Hobbies Store for Transformers Toys, Model Kits, Cosplay Costumes & more
Perhaps. Mainly, I wanted to see if someone has actually ordered from them that could discuss their experience, etc.
I don't know if anyone ever mentioned this about The Chosen Prime but they have a rewards system. For every $150 you spend you get $5 dollars worth of points which you can redeem for gift cards to be used to discount future purchases. There are no other sites out there that do something like this. The rewards program at TFsource is a joke. They give you points to select from a small collection of mostly junk. At TCP you can use your points on anything. Also as others have stated, TCP has the best customer service. I was really torn up about cancelling my MP-10 reissue to get the Hasbro version. Especially because it meant cancelling with TCP and going to BBTS. I was talking to Brandon of TCP and he had straight up told me that it was a wicked good deal and if I preferred the aesthetic to cancel and buy the one from BBTS. He treats you like a friend and I frequently have conversations with him over Facebook messenger. tldr: The Chosen Prime is GREAT!
