Yes. Everything FAC#171 onwards will now be discless.

Yeah it´s probably right, I read it one more time, all that jibberish, and FAC´s from 171+ will be released without the discs with exceptions (they bought the discs sooner). Also, If some of those FAC´s will be released with discs afterall, they will offer it to a free sale on website (and they have prepared for it by raising the prices on all of those to 3599 CZK - ****ing disgusting

Thanks for the info. FAC is history then...

Just sent mail to cancel all open orders. What's next? Buying a new car and receive one without tires... you can buy them in our online store... a joke...

I'm betting it was a direct order. You just have to email them. Usually takes a few times, but eventually they'll edit your order.

Wrote them already, no answer so far, guess I need to keep trying.

Only FAC lineup or Black Barons too? Anyone knows?

I think their days are numbered to be fair , just look at the way they ask for money sometimes requiring it within 3 days of a GB then make you wait 14 + months for your goods.
They used to make some good editions and nice sets back in the day and remember when new releases averaged around £35- £40 now they often touch £65 + before postage and then they pull this discless **** on us.
Also don't get me started on incomplete sets when you start collecting.

Yeah their customer comms are poor. I've had to chase several times when I've need to edit orders recently.

It'll be the entire range. Black Barons and FAC. There will apparently be a few exceptions, and some with disc options, but they will be few and far between, and more expensive.

Just give us a release date for all your future editions Mr the owner of FilmArena.

3 months after last relase date, still nothing. So disgusting.

Totally agree. Shockingly poor service. I’m sure there’s a number of people on here who have a few pre-orders and are wondering whether we’ll ever receive our orders!

Exactly! Waiting for 4 items, ordered waaaaaaaay back, when they still wrote 'release date' with double t.....

Glad I got my cash back just about had it with these muppets and the way they now operate.

I thought they only do store credit refunds, or did you buy through a GB?
