Ignore the haters @cooey

Haters are gonna hate. If these two take their business elsewhere then thats an extra two copies avaliable on future GB’s for genuine members.

True, I agree with you and all Im saying is you should never a day before give a date to a pre order/group buy and at least give 1-2 weeks heads up because some members like you said have to work and can not check everyday...


So if those dedicated people work as well then they should be able to understand that telling members a day before is wrong and not enough time for all their members to be prepared. When we all work we cant check the thread everyday so if they are that dedicated, they should be considerate and give a better time frame for all the members that are interested in this purchase.. All that takes is an email in their newsletter or on the thread give a date a week or 2 prior to the group buy. Why couldnt he let us know the Group buy will be on Friday a week prior or 2 weeks, why a day before?

No good company will announce a pre order ls going live a day before and all their dates they know for a while.. They knew its coming out in May and they had an idea when the Group Buy will be, so there should be better preparation given and one day heads ups are not enough time.


I would say the same opinion if I bought it... Its not right for any item that they will have for sale to tell members a day before pre order. That is a unprofessional way to do it and HDN is a business. So, even group buys should be handled more professionally and announcing the pre order date a day before on a forum is not good!


There is no good reasoning to do it a day before and at least if they updated all the members in a reasonable time like at least a week then if members miss the purchase when they all got the info in a good amount of time is different then members not getting the info because it was randomly announced a day before is not right to do.


Im sure all the people at HDN doing group buys are wonderful people, but it still doesnt mean they should not be more considerste if they do a group buy not to announce the live sale a day before.


That is straight up ridiculous. I dont even care about not getting the item as much as not getting the group buy info in a timely manner! Not for a staff member to spontaneously come on the thread on a Thursday and say hey, the sale goes live tomorrow is flat out inconsiderate.

Just so you don't feel too bad, I too will have to go to the dreaded eBay, and hunt down the ultra cool x2 lenti. I too will have to deal with those hungry blood suckers, that gonna fleece me to death. All because I only managed to get the 1 click and the 1/4 slip. But seeing how awesome the DL is, I now have to go and pay the piper. Your not alone dude.

I’ve said my piece to you in your rant in the GB post. Sorry you missed out and better luck next time whether that’s with my GB or somewhere else.

Ok thanks for your reply. I will read it soon. Tale care

@BluSteel2012
Double Lenti secured and paid for

I just got my invoice from Kevin a few min ago

Nice one

This is going to be another beauty from Blufans .

 

[cooey]

Less reliable because over there we get given an exact time that the GB goes live. None of this “camp on your PC/phone for 3hrs until the host decides to do their job” stuff.

Oh, and from what I’ve read, your servers are still trash and the site buckled at live time? That’s never happened over there. And you don’t have to worry about checkout, which is just another factor to potentially go wrong. Over there it’s: put your name down, await the invoice PM. Done.

Considering we had over 200 purchases with no errors I’d say there was no worries with checkout.

You don’t like the way they GBs are run and evidently neither do other members. That’s fine. There’s other websites out there who run similar GBs, as you’ve rightly said and use. Please, go and use them and leave those spots for other people here who are happy with how they are run.

 

[Radagast]

It is getting boring now..if you are so dissatisfied feel free to go elsewhere. I think you made your points clear.

 

[Mickle_89]

@Troll - Er, I mean @Alf_1... What a douche move man So you're venting your anger towards HDN and its hosts simply because you weren't proactive enough to secure your own copy??? You have to put some effort in yourself if you want to buy! You can't expect to have it served on a silver platter everytime and at your own convenience. If you'd bothered to subscribe (click watch forum) in the GB section you would have received an email notifying you of the GB. So even if you weren't on HDN you would still receive that instant email alert. Very simple, no??? All info regarding the specified 3 hour window and even a link stating your very own timezone was added to the OP for all to see. But regardles, had you had your notification settings switched on for the GB section we wouldn't be having this conversation right now HDN as a site were also able to secure a very healthy qty so most had a good chance at grabbing their chosen copies too. May I poiltely suggest you man up or please do take your childish crap (and @Kirsty157188 ) elsewhere and don't forget to close the door on your way out. Much thanks bro

 

[cooey]

Ok thanks for your reply. I will read it soon. Tale care

Please do feel free to PM me if you want to discuss anything further. More than happy to have a chat.

 

[DMD4k]

Most people would not use their personal time and provide the effort required to host a GB. FWIW I appreciate it!

And having to put up with this BS.

 

[Alf_1]

Wow @Alf_1 - that was uncalled for.

If HDN sucks that much, you know what you can do.

Sorry, you misunderstood and even though im angry I didnt mean HDN sucks. I meant in my opinion the way we were informed sucks. i will read the replies and I agree with some of you that it doesns have to be a long heads up like a month but it could at least be a well or maybe 2 so all members have a chance to reas the thread..

We are all busy and not everyone wants to come to a thread everyday for purchase when they can give a more reasonalbe time. Havent you ever been taught in school not to wait ubtil the last minute for anyhting, so why is it ok to wait the last minute to announce the Group Buy?

 

[Sigill]

Ok guys, everyone has had there say now. Please remember GB host’s do this in their own time, I think we should be grateful that they are willing to help members obtain these items. There is a lot of hard work and effort put into these and I think the majority of members do appreciate this.
This conversation is going round in circles and just derailing the thread. If you have an issue please take it to PM.

 

[cooey]

You’ve already said (rather bluntly) that you won’t change the way you do things (even though there are people here asking you to consier an alternative... way to listen to your paying customers), so it’s a waste of time even trying to discuss this with you.

My business will remain elsewhere, don’t worry. Glad to see you’re open to change though.

I’m glad your business will remain elsewhere. Pleases me no-end.

Yes, I have said it bluntly because as it stands, it won’t change. Have you considered the fact that at the moment I can’t change how it works? If I could change it then of course I would. But that would demand better communication from Blufans which is out of my hands.

And to listen to paying customers.....again, over 200 purchases with a complete sell out. I think that says enough.

Of course though, it doesn’t matter what I say, I’ll never be in the right with you.

 

[cooey]

FYI they get paid to put up with the BS. Don’t just assume they’re all unpaid good samaritans.

I get paid?!

That’s news to me!!

 

[DMD4k]

FYI they get paid to put up with the BS. Don’t just assume they’re all unpaid good samaritans.

What’s your point?

 

[Alf_1]

Just in case you missed my reply to you @Alf_1 -

Steady on Tex!!

The thread was updated accordingly with live dates and times. Rather than blaming HDN why not help yourself and do the following -

1. Keep tabs on the product thread (all info is posted in the OP, it takes seconds to check)
2. ‘Watch’ and subscribe to the group buy forum so you get notifications and emails to when a new group buy goes live.

There was 24 hours advance notice of when the GB was going live. That might not be enough for you but unfortunately that’s tough. As I’ve said before, I run the GBs and I set them live at a time that is convenient to me, not you. Have you also considered that I might get the info at very short notice from Blufans?

Sorry you missed out and I hope you find one somewhere else.

I understand and thanks for your answer....

The only thing is, I am signed up and sunscribed to the grouo buy, but did not receive any notifications.. I saw another memebr say they were not getting notfocations as well, so maybe there is a glitch with some members not getting notifications..

I been following this thread for a while and a while back sogned uo for notfocations. I did not got one and I understand if Blufans told you om short notice, but why cant you even with Blufans telling you not give at least a weeks heads up?

Also, I understand you are doing it on your time, but your company is still making money on charging fees to buy these items and i feel like HDN should be a little more consoderate on telling a pre order time in a timely manner when you are making money off of us collectors. Am I wrong?

If you put in half the effort you have today to read the forum every day you’ll do fine on the next GB. You’ll see.

 

[stevo]

Ok, calm down all of you. I just checked eBay, and the verdict is good. The scalpers definitely didn't get a hold of this title. All I see there was the single lent for $120, and a 1 click for $290. Those are your choices so far Alf. Or I can sell you my 1/4 slip for $110. Trust me, these will go higher than the quoted prices. I don't see any of the DL that I'm looking for though.

 

[yeslek]

I wonder how someone can purchase in error

No but that how I scored my Blufans Doctor Strange double. Was lucky enough to take a members duplicate. Plus, wasn’t it you that alerted me to the left over/spare FAC GOTG2 Box?
So it’s happened

Though am not expecting the same luck again. Be like lightningh(excuse the pun) striking twice.

This GROUP BUY SUCKED!!!!!

There was no email or anything and everytime I checked this thread there was no clear info on when the group buy would happen and the only answer was soon.

Then all of a sudden with no warning or email to people signed up for uodates lets us know this was going up for sale.. Your group buy sucks and screw this site. Im done with it! You suck at giving customers a fair update and a better heads up. You suck!

There was an email.
Mine came through when I left the cinema*(due to no signal), approx 30mins after it went live. I just wasn’t quick enough, sadly.
It happens sometimes

That’s the double edged sword....mostly collectors got this which is how it should be, but means those who missed out will pay through the teeth if they want a copy. When scalpers get loads, it’s keeps the secondary prices low or close to face value at least.

Am half glad, but selfishly gutted at the prospect of paying double for this.

Genuine congrats to those that got in there quick enough though

Will have to see what Korean retailers or maybe Manta/FIlm Arena produce for this movie as am not comfortable shelling triple digits on a single steel. No matter how pretty the slip.

Yes, there was another member who said that they were not receiving the notifications. I know @apsmith21 was made aware of it but I don’t know what the outcome of that was.

HDN is not my company. I’m just a GB host. And yes, you are wrong. Have a read a few posts back mate regarding the fees that you mention.

 

[cooey]

I must’ve imagined AP Smith’s post looking for hosts then, promising Amazon gift cards as compensation...

Nope you didn’t imagine those at all, those posts are there. Nothing to do with me though.

You’ve said that I’m paid. I can assure you I’m not, you must’ve imagined that instead. But you won’t believe me anyway.
