Leia is about to ship!!! woo hoo!

[Gruson]

1/4 Leia is almost here!

At this time, we would like to inform you that this item is estimated to arrive into our warehouse within the next 7-10 days. We will BEGIN “pre-authorizing” credit cards for this purchase starting on July 14, 2006, in the sequence in which all of the pre-orders for this item were placed. A “pre-auth” is not a direct charge, but is a “hold” of funds pending the shipment of your order. Your credit card will be charged once the item is shipped from our warehouse.

NICE!

[pixletwin]

Wow. Its gonna be a great next couple of weeks for us all, isn't it? :D

[tomandshell]

Getting this before I leave for SDCC is going to be a VERY close thing. Actually, with all the hits in my credit card in the two weeks before Comic Con, I might not have enough money left to actually take the trip!

[Batty]

First Kit, now Leia! Excellent, Smithers!

[oxbeard]

Got my notice as well. Glad to see it, but it's going to be close here as well.

I've figured it out Tom! Sideshow wants to make sure we have no money left to spend on other companies at SDCC!!! :google

Seriously though, it really is becoming a hard month and only two weeks till SDCC. I wish Sideshow could somehow schedule these a little better with consideration for something as big as SDCC.

[KitFisto]

Just checked my e-mail when I saw this thread and I had my notice too.:chew

here's where Dusty posts "We could hold them in the warehouse in the future and not ship them ASAP from here on out. Would that help?" :lol

Ive reduced my ordering from "What I want" down to "What I REALLY want" to help alleviate this issue. It truely is tough to keep up finacially sometimes.

I had to do the same thing. And due to space and current funds, she was a casualty.

[tomandshell]

I have been forced to sell a large percentage of my Sideshow/Weta LOTR items to be able to afford all of my July expenses. :monkey2 :monkey2 :monkey2 :monkey2 :monkey2

(There is no way that I will be cancelling Leia, or any Star Wars PF for that matter. If I have to sell everything else and keep just one line, that would be it.)

Me too. Unfortunately, most of the stuff I want falls into the "What I REALLY want" category. :lol

Between all the great pieces SS and GG are producing, it's hard not to order.

you all sound like a bunch of Spice Girls :lol

[Batty]

You can call me PF Spice.

[tomandshell]

I have dibs on "Boba Spice."




Batty, shouldn't you be "Old Spice"?

Thanks Tom! :rotfl :rotfl :rotfl

[Agent0028]

I call Drunky Spice.

It's going to be a busy couple weeks with shipping. How odd that she never showed up as shipping in 30 days in the newsletter nor a 20-25 day warning. Not that I'm complaining, because this is a very pleasant surprise!

[LOTRFan]

Off to the bay to find her ... :monkey5

[tomandshell]

This is actually good news. I want Hulk, Kit Fisto, and Leia to all be paid for and shipped before I head off to Comic Con. It will be expensive, but I can head to San Diego and not have to worry about how much to save for pending charges. It will be good to know exactly how much is available to spend since my Sideshow orders will be all paid for.

:D

[Zoomaround]

I was pleasantly surprised to receive the e-mail as well. Thankfully, I saved money for Leia but I'm not sure how my credit card is going to hold up after Comic Con.

[carbo-fation]

Got my notice as well! Now my CC is getting charged for Leia, Hulk, Iron Man, Spider Man and Kit. I want to cancel one of these but just can't bring myself to do it! :monkey4

Which Spider-Man? The PF figure? :confused:

[carbo-fation]

Which Spider-Man? The PF figure? :confused:

Yeah. I got a notice saying that they'll start charging my card the same time the Hulk gets charged. It's the exclusive PF!

[gambit]

Oh this is bad news

I probably will be cancelling my spider exclusive

anyway, I never like the sculp so far :monkey3

[oxbeard]

I hadn't got any notice about Spidey. If this is true, I may have to cancel and pick him up later as well.

actually I did not get it yet as well,

may be SS do not want to scare us by sending all the item mails at once :lol

[lcummins]

This is interesting... I haven't received a notice either! Man, I didn't think this month could get any worse... :monkey2

[Agent0028]

I have the reg Spidey on order through a dealer, so I personally hope he's coming soon. Sorry to all of you who may have to cancel, I know its never an easy decision to make.

[theropod]

What happened to the 25 day notice? Who wants to buy my unopened exclusive Grievous so that I can pay for Leia?

Don't know about ebay, but Bart Simpson got $5 from Milhouse for his.
