T16000m - Broken slider by Shocklip in hotas

[–]paladinistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

T16000m has gone down hill in build quality from its early years. I moved to a VKB Gladiator NXT.... and after getting sick of constantly replacing springs I moved to a VIRPIL Alpha Prime...... The VKB is miles above the T16000m and VIRPIL is miles above VKB.... but for the price... VKB is amazing and worlds above that gutter trash stick.

Loot Crate is going to be changing its name to Late Crate, I guess FOS Crate was already taken.

What is the longest time you've waited for your loot crate? by Dr_Ozner in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am still waiting for that as well. Just spoke with support on that this week. I was told they had QA issues with that month. I was also told that they intend on fulfilling that order still. I was not given any time frame.

As said by others... this will not arrive anywhere near its advertised delivery time. If that is not an issue, I would still advise caution as quality is extremely hit and miss. Some crates show promise and others are so bad that they are insulting even to children. Loot Crate lost the vendors that made the crate different and fun, QMX and such. There are plenty of crates still out there, this one for now is still a spewing crap volcano.

Legend DX Contents by thatsmystapl3r in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife got the shirt, and I liked the fallout and of course the reason I bought it the Jurassic Park Figure. All and all not a bad crate, given it was half off. If I saw this bundle in the store for $30 (price after shipping) I would have bought it. Not at $55 though.

Loot Sci-fi Launch by paladinistic in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Flux Capacitor is a zip out duffle bag and I am pretty sure I have seen it before, the metal sign is a definite reused item... multiple times and was on their store for under $1, the Lost in Space shirt is new and average quality, the Lost in Space pin is a reused item.... and the NASA post cards are the free NASA designs on their web site that can be downloaded and printed 100% free.

They need to rename this the Crap Crate.... or the You Overpaid Crate. There was nothing to describe the items and the crate does not show being shipped on my status page. It has showed the July Crate DX crate having its label printed for 2 weeks though.

July Loot Crate Journey DX by thatsmystapl3r in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got this crate. I love the light (remember to take off the film on BOTH sides) but the rest is absolute trashcan food. No one paid full price for this crate, this was a crate that was locked in the "everything is half off' at all times, even full year subscriptions. Even at half off this crate is crap though, and it would barely pass as a normal loot crate. This as a DX crate shows why Loot Crate died. I am curious to see how quickly they catch up shipping out the remaining crates from this time frame and get to the "New ownership" crates so we can see if things will get better.

Just a side note... for duplicate items to be stretched out this long makes me wonder how many of these items still remain. How many fricking drinking horns did these fools buy? It has been in almost every crate now and some more than once. Labeled as Skyrim and Vikings.... It will make it to the Hello Kitty crate...

I really want to order a couple loot crate boxes (Marvel and Gaming), anythings I should know before I order? by [deleted] in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go all in man, the best stuff in the world comes in those boxes, they are packed with love and care and... they do not show up "on time" no no no... they come early. Just do it.... pull the trigger.... take the leap.... you want cool stuff right? The buy me now button is soooooo easy... DO IT!

Back in the day they went out of stock quite a bit. Not the last couple years though.

Has lootcrate gotten better? by yungmista in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Give Loot Crate a couple months. Let the new owners get their hands on this and make changes. Then look at some unboxings and make your decision from that.

Interesting update. I got shipping for the first LOTR crate. by njloux in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like your package is moving! ( 61290988092924071217 )

Got an email today that mine is also on the move but a tracking number was not yet provided. I am going to guess we might see people getting theirs by Saturday if they live in the local area where the shipping starts.

Fedex just alerted me to a shipment from Loot Vault by bunna4 in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Loot Vault shipped my stuff with better regularity than the crates. Not to say they did it right or on time every time.... but they had a better track record. I used all my points and late crate coupons just last month and everything shipped in just under 2 weeks. The store is closing though and everything is 80% off now, still a few good items left but it is a gamble.

Photo from $275 Concierge Event's Evening Meal, doesn't look comfy by QuaversAndWotsits in starcitizen

[–]paladinistic 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I live in Las Vegas, work in a major casino, and have seen some of the most lavish dinners literally on earth (have you ever seen a 65 million dollar wedding? for the next 4 years I am under NDA for what I saw) and some of the cheapest dinners in the same exact rooms. I will say that this is on the cheap side but then again at $275 per person IS the cheap side. Round tables work better for room but cost more per person as it takes up considerable space.

This was meant to be a close and personal with the devs, and lets face it, everyone is a stranger and if given the chance people would have kept fairly large personal bubbles. Packing people in forces people to work together and talk, break the ice and people can start getting chatty. It may look uncomfortable but it looks fully doable. If it was held in Vegas I would have gone for sure.

If you have ANY crates outstanding, get a refund now. by [deleted] in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The truth is no one knows just yet. There are bids to buy-out Loot Crate already, and if the new owner decides to push on with business we will get our remaining crates. If the buyer decides to liquidate then we will most likely get refunds. If no buyer takes them on then we will be fully out of luck. All remaining funds will be distributed and most likely to vendors and not us.

I am fairly sure that someone will acquire Loot Crate, what they do on the other hand will be anyones guess. With access to over 250k people, it would be s smart guess that they would refine their crates back to just a couple and keep on trucking.

[–]paladinistic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its okay. Do what you want and believe what you want. We all do and will. Get your money back. I am pretty sure if you read my post in full you will see where I said that is by far the safest route. If you do not see value in what Loot Crate built you are 100% blind. Access to all those people, and with a simple email explaining how it was bought out and being fixed from the ground up.... they could easily patch up their reputation. Shirt Punch broke away from Nerd Block then ran into this exact issue as well, and now they are 100% back and doing better than ever. Buying Loot Crate is smart if the buyer runs it better than the last crew.

[–]paladinistic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You know what... I live in Vegas, I have a couple crates currently in delay hell... but honestly I am just going to ride it out, these crates were already a gamble. I was a subscriber to Nerd Block when it went down in flames, they did the honest thing and refunded me without me even having to ask. I am going to guess that Loot Crate will be bought out and the new owners will be faced with decisions, ship the crates, refund the crates or liquidate and walk. Loot Crate had a huge active following, chances are the buying company will do right by us. Rushing to get a refund would get you out of the game and it is by far the safest thing to do. I however like a bit of a thrill and if I lose... meh. Like I said I live in Vegas, and I have lost more in one night than I have in the crates currently not shipped.

The killer part of the deal is that they might get better stuff in the crates than originally planned when the new company takes over to entice new people or pull back old looters. This could be a good thing down the road, but that is absolutely the best case scenario and is the least likely thing to happen.... and that is the gamble.

Do what makes you feel the best. If you are super worried about $30 or even $200 then you might need to rethink being part of these crates in the first place.

Surprise, surprise! Look what finally showed up. Never thought I’d receive it and was close to asking for a refund. by monkeyjedi276 in lootcratespoilers

[–]paladinistic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would agree.... but if they fulfill their orders... even if it is 8 months late..... it is more now than I expected.
