Taking just a minute this morning to warn people if you deal with Replicarz be very careful. My last three orders have all been problems and other than offering excuses they do not seem to care. A shame my Dad dealt with them for almost 30 years, but all things change.

Sorry to hear of this Josh. I've purchased dozens; never a problem.

Did they correct whatever the problem was with your orders? Like Chris I've ordered from them on a few occasions both from their website and on Ebay. I've never had a problem. They have a pretty solid reputation in the hobby so I'm sure they would want to satisfy the customer one way or the other.

Three preorderes in a row they charged more for the product than the cost showed at the time of the preorder. They did offer to issue a credit but that misses the point, why would I order from them if I can't trust in them. I am sure many people would not say anything for five to ten dollars, great way to increase profits, should not have to contact them to say the price is more, they should honor the price at the time the preorder is requested. Just my opinion, but yes they did offer to issue a credit.

Some preorders can take years to produce, and be more costly than originally announced-makes sense the dealer has to pass that onto the customer, it costs them more .

Not an excuse but an explanation, is some items do get announced too soon, like the GMP '70 Super Bee (3 years) and the production & dealer pricing costs do go up. I remember one AutoART White Corvette that ended up costing us as a dealer very very close to the what the original retail price was, as it took so long to produce. Sometimes costs can be absorbed, sometimes simply can't. I of course do not know of the exact situation here, but those guys are pretty great usually. Sorry to hear of your problems with them, and thanks for the read.
