    IS toyarena a trustworthy site to shop from? I'm thinking about buying green giant from there but it looks fake to me. Their facebook also has a lot of posts of users looking for customer service and getting no replies.

    I have made no purchases from their online store, but buying from them at their botcon booth they were very helpful. The people in my eyes are extremely trustworthy

    So I went to the checkout and put in Green Giant, and BAM! 50$ in taxes, bringing it up to 400$. For that I might as well have gone to TFS and waited for the preorder to restock.

    Thanks for your time man!

    I've had good experiences with them :) 

    Also, if it wasn't a trustworthy store, it wouldn't be allowed to be a site sponsor :wink:

    They are a great store to order from. I purchased my Green Giant from their site. You got hit with taxes you and Toyarena are located both in California. They ship out of City of Industry, if I'm remembering right. That's unfortunate for you. They should have a coupon online though (pretty sure it is USAGround) for free shipping. But they are a trustworthy site.

    Toyarena is legit. Simple as that.

    Did Jux ever get his Predaking from Bill's toys and games?

    That was it, wasn't it?

    I have ordered from them once online and several times in person at their Frank and Sons booth.

    They don't charge tax if you buy it in person, especially with cash. Plus you can haggle.
