Just throwing this out there... If anyone gets the glow orange RI I will trade WHATEVER it is that I receive for it. I should get my Xbox in a few days.
shit. i hope i don't get hosed... i was billed on the 10th and I just paid. (this is the 5 time or so I've been late with an invoice because paypal doesn't notify I have one via email)
Son of a...the same thing with me. I didn't even know they sent the invoice until I checked after reading your post. Damn you paypal!
I really hope this isn't the case. I don't feel that anyone should get less of a shot to get the "good" items from the x-boxes just because they got their payment in later than anyone else. These are supposedly all blind boxes, so to throw the junk boxes out to the late payers is seriously fucked up and I really hope secret base is not doing this. If you pay you should have the same shot as anyone else for the goods. maxaltoman how do you know this to be the case??? Can anyone confirm?
well with that said, i personally took a blind faith to the x box, because i missed out on the xbags... i was hoping that mamybe a few of the blue gid rebels might show up in the xbox's not even knowing about the orange ri, im sure once posts of orange ri's came up that sb's inbox suddenly was full... when plenty said before hand, that $50 was a gamble on just 1 item. i think it would be somewhat cool to reward those who took that blind leap a tad more then those who are not jumping on board after hearing about bagmen, and rebels
i hope you dudes get your payment in on time, it says in the emails that if you don't pay within x amount of days, that you will be banned from buying anything from sb for non payment.
There is a 72 hour grace period, so I am ok, but I probably wouldn't have thought to check it if I didn't see Jeff's post. Also, not insinuating that the good stuff is going to the earlier boxes, I certainly hope that isn't the case either, although I assume I am earlier than the people who submitted orders when the pics of the RI and Mark's Bagman were posted.
I think is just speculation dont sweat it dude its "lucky" for a reason. sometimes you get the RI sometime you get the assorted box of crap i dont think its dependent on who orders first.
You can't complain if you buy something blind. Wah wah.. I didn't get a gold plated rebel ink and I got a blind box. The fun is the surprise of what you get. If you can't handle a surprise, why bother buying one at all?
Its not a matter of buying blind. Its a matter of an even playing field. Everyone paying the same amount should have the same shot, regardless on when payment was sent. If Secret Base only rewards early buyers because the pictures of the good items were leaked, they should have held back on shipping until all payments were received, IMO. If they purposely ship the crap boxes to the "late" payers, then that's not kosher with me. With that said... There's a Gold Platted Rebel Ink!!!!
snap! whole lot of awesome coming from joe there's a diamond studded rebel to... no speculations if they are real or cubic zirconia just yet though.
