GIVE ME a "B", GIVE ME an "S"

WHAT'S THAT SPELL? WHAT'S THAT SPELL?

GO TEAM !!!



Most humorus post in weeks. LOL

Johnny boy and Code 3 still can't get it right. What bs.

"Last week Code 3 management made a decision to stop any further shipments...". Then there should have been an email LAST WEEK. Not wait another 5 or so days. Once again a day late and $200 dollars short.

The biggest load of BS ever heard:

"First and foremost strives to please the collector base."

Then they should have addressed this issue the first day it was obvious there was a mass problem, not 3 weeks later. And please quit with "they had to research the scope, magnitude, and cause of the problem". No they didn't - they could have release SOME kind of statement once it was apparent there was a problem.

How does the lack of having customer service reps on site strive to please the collector? Once again, had there been a live person to talk to from day 1, this problem could have been resolve 10x faster. Some people have yet to receive a personal email response 3 weeks later.

Again, maybe if John was doing his job, instead of talking about all the snow, his cancelled trips, his wifes injury, the move...EXCUSE AFTER EXCUSE, this would have been resolved in a more effective and expedient matter.

Got any more lies for us Mr.Dunkel?? Oh wait, you were too afraid to even put your name on that announcement. Real management accountability in action.

I just don't get it. Nobody who received a defective squirt was going to loose their money. So that can't be the source of this outrage. Having your money tied up in a refund process could certain raise some ire.

But is it the model, or want of the model, that has everyone so hot? Meaning, are the affected parties panties in such tightly wound wads because they, well, just want the **** model. And are p'ed that they can't get at this time, under optimum/regular conditions?

let's say you want to keep the model for the collection. And can repair the possible damage. Instead of re imbursing the returns, why don't sent the buyers a fixed amount in return as a coupon for the next buy?

Having not ordered the truck (and thankful to all of you for the valuable information you have posted about your experience), I don't know what I would do.

If I had a perfect truck--and face it, I don't know if there's any there--I would probably want it for my collection, yet I would feel that $200 is a rip off b/c down the line, you're ultimately going see those trucks sold "AS-IS" for $29.99 with a disclaimer saying that no refunds/all sales final. And the kit bashers will have a field day transforming an otherwise piece of junk into a thing of beauty.

I think anyone that ordered the piece (and keeps it) should be entitled to a $100 credit. Anyone that ordered it and returned it should get, nominally, a $25 credit just for the sake of aggrivation.

When you consider how the SPS sold for $325 (I bought it at that price) and now they can't give it away for $99, there is clearly still being made at that price.

Sure vouchers may put a small dent in the Code 3 kitty, but they need to look in the mirror and ask themselves what's more important, take a hit now b/c of their q/c issues and maintain a loyal collector following or risk not doing anything and having the one's that kept them afloat from the get go take their money elsewhere never to do return business.

Not much of a decision as far as I'm concerned, but I'm pretty good at spending other people's money

My 2 Lincolns.....

Funny how this terrible packaging can remove paint, delete parts and spirit them out of the box and make decals crooked!
