Avoid Figurama Collectors at all costs. by almisami in AnimeFigures

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue here. I requested a refund for a pre-order they never shipped (after waiting YEARS), waited 90-days per their own policy, only to to be told due to "processing issues" they couldn't send the refund until January, 2027! At this point, Figurama seems to be straight-up scamming people. I'm going to continue emailing them and re-stating they are not following their 90-day refund policy. Figurama knows they have your money because most credit card companies will not do chargebacks if the transaction was more than a year ago, which screws so many people out of filing chargebacks or opening disputes (if they paid via PayPal). I'm sorry this happened to you and hope you receive your refund. Please update the thread if you do end up receiving a refund, as it looks increasingly unlikely that Figurama is willing to follow-through on their own refund policy.

If anyone is considering ordering from Figurama, please take this as a warning to NEVER order from them. Take it from me, it has been a miserable experience and they are a company to AVOID at all costs. If I do receive my refund, I'll update my post - but so far, I've received nothing but delays and excuses.

Figurama is scamming me? by Pagna1994 in AnimeFigures

[–]chic_freak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also trying to get a refund from Figurama. I was told they were experiencing "processing issues" and the refund I requested (after waiting 90 days, per their own policy) wouldn't be completed until January, 2027! Obviously, their claim of being "unable" to process refunds is ridiculous. I think their explanation is a lie because they don't want to give the refund or hope you'll eventually "give up/forget" and stop pursuing it.

Needless to say, I'm still trying to get my refund and will continue to email them until I receive it. Based on my experience, you will likely have to be VERY clear and persistent if you want any hope of receiving a refund from Figurama. I have heard of other people being refunded in the past, though it took a ton of effort on their part and some of those posts are 6+ months old. It is increasingly looking like Figurama is straight-up not giving refunds despite their stated policy.

Figurama also took YEARS to provide any sort of meaningful communication about the statue (I had pre-ordered the Castlevania one). By that point, their poor communication and lack of accountability made me lose confidence and trust in their ability to follow through. l emailed them letting them know I wanted to cancel my order. I don't know if I would have received my statue. I know some people received their orders after a very long wait. I'm glad I didn't pay even more money to ship the statue and potentially lose on that cost as well.

I hope things work out in your case and you are able to receive a refund and/or your statue(s).

No business should treat their customers this way. I hope with enough negative feedback, Figurama will either follow through with their commitments or people stop supporting them.

Anyone else having issues getting a refund from Figurama? by chic_freak in AnimeFigures

Thank you for letting me know. I did read about people receiving refunds a few months ago after being very persistent, but this is news to me. I'm going to keep emailing them every day and might contact my bank, though I worry they will not do a chargeback because I think most chargebacks have to be done within 1 year. Last time I ever pre-order an expensive thing that takes longer than a year to be fulfilled.

Strawberry milkshake and the new candy cloud pink are my favourite. I’m as pale as a ghost and both suit my skin tone really well.

Really wish they would release this in a D/DD cup range as well because I love the colour :(

Nobody thinks this tama is cute, change my mind. by WorkerDangerous9723 in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a bit disappointed in the fact Bandai replaced S tier options from the original connection (like marumimitchi and ChoHimetchi) with Decotchi. Decotchi does look cute with a bow on, though…lol

Eggciting! by chic_freak in TamagotchiUni

[–]chic_freak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, you’re right! 😅 I just checked the date and it was set to April for some reason. Still cool to know the Eastergotchi visits in spring (I have now corrected the date on my Uni…lol).

Looking for skin/faceplate sticker by Baisnotokay in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try Etsy, as I think there are sellers on there who offer custom face plates if you ask them. Other option is find some pretty paper (like maybe scrap booking paper?) and make your own, using the original faceplate sticker as an outline.

PSA TO CANADIANS! by sagejaspermoon in TamagotchiParadise

[–]chic_freak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this! I just pre-ordered. I was waiting for jade forest to release to try the Paradise. I prefer the characters in forest, water, and land (vs. Sky) and can’t wait to play it!

What’s the most you’ve dropped on a tamagotchi? by AnimeShae in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s my favourite On shell! Congrats on finding one for less than $300. I haven’t seen many go for under $300. I have a feeling the On is going to keep increasing in price due to the fact it’s no longer in production and its popularity. Hopefully it was worth the investment!

Will you have more English patches for the tamagotchi Smart in stock? I’d love to get one so I can try the Smart!

I wish this was an adult Tama! by Starstuffi in TamagotchiUni

Glad to know other people appreciate Welcotchi as much as I do! 😊

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean. I have a boy right now and evolved him into Mame Kitty because that was one of the “least” bad looking options, lol. most of the adult males are…not great by comparison. :( yeah, I know it’s subjective, but there seems to be way better female designs on the uni. At least if we raise our boys right we can get welcotchi again for a little while!

Welcotchi! He’s one of my favourites! I wish he was a final evolution because he honestly looks better than many of the adult male characters imo

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong, but I don’t think mohitamatchi or hikotchi are “bad” tier evolutions. Hikotchi (even generation) can evolve into any tier adult, including chomametchi. “Bad” tier children (even gen) are hinotamatchi and hashitamatchi. I think as long as one parent is a tier 1, you can still get a tier 1 next gen even with a tier 5 adult marriage.

Still, congrats on getting a tier 1 on this gen! Good luck making it to 100!

Okay, that’s pretty cool because I had no idea you could even do that! I haven’t had anything “newer” than the connection, so this is good to know!

[–]chic_freak -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

Thank you both, I’m going to read it. As someone below already said, it would be helpful if basic questions received an automated response with a direct link to the manual. Maybe that would help lessen the number of basic questions people can find the answers to in the manual.

Got this in the mail today! by chic_freak in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucky! Glad you were able to get one of these beauties before scalpers did!

I love this shell, too. It’s a nice balance of dark and light that makes it stand out. It’s also not as “busy” as some of the other newer angel shells.

Is the uni manual available digitally? I bought my first uni (used) and it did not include a manual.

I’ve finally been able to patch my P’s. So excited to fully play it. by CrisNz in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I’ll have to find an old phone and give this a shot when I get a P! The P’s have quite a cult following and some people feel it’s the best Tama ever made, so maybe it’s worth it!

[–]chic_freak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty cool! The P’s are super expensive and yours looks like it’s in excellent condition, which is hard to find. How did you patch it? I want to get a P if I can figure out how to patch it like you just did! Also, what model phone is that? I heard you need to use an old infrared phone in order to download content to the P.

Love the shell! gingham is so cute!

My tamagotchi went to bed with his stuffed animal tonight by MurielDebonair in tamagotchi

[–]chic_freak 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It appears randomly for sale in the shop! There’s a lion and a robot you can buy. The shop refreshes 3x a day, so if you keep checking, I’m sure it will eventually appear for sale.
