Wave 4. What’s going on??

By Braddock76ie, in X-Wing

What on earth is going on with wave 4? My LGS which I preordered from back in mid May Just keeps pushing back the shipping date week after week, yet it’s been out in Australia for weeks, on sale from Barnes and Noble in the US for over a week and now they’re currently for sale on Amazon UK at horrendously over inflated prices (£55 for a Resistance Transport or £37 for the Hyena bomber as of this writing).

Frustrating.

Shipping or production errors delayed the wave. The Australian distributor released it early then pulled it from sale and B&N was either never told or was told and doesn’t care.

Official Release Date is July 11th

Yeah I get the Australia mix up, but they pulled from the shelves. I’m mainly annoyed that they’re now up on Amazon UK but at 2x RRP to try and exploit the haphazard release.

Dogs and cats living together!

Mass hysteria!

Vader keeps altering the deal.

Pray he doesn't change it further.

Those are probably resellers who bought it elsewhere and are now price-gouging the stupid.

I was going to say exactly this. This sounds like secondary market. I’m honestly surprised they aren’t all over eBay.

Quoting just for the Ghostbusters reference. Thank you ^_^

But, for the topic at hand, as stated already it was a distribution muck-up. We'll have it in 2 weeks.

Remember back in 1st edition when waves were just delayed.
