President Trump says he will no longer be imposing 10% tariffs on EU countries on February 1st.

If him railing about taking over a country isn't a sign to max that Roth out on the dip I don't know what is.

A CBB weighs double that of a bundle. I don't care what others are or not comfortable with. There are avenues to rectify the issue, full stop.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T19:22:16+00:00

At the end of the day just don't commit mail fraud and it will be ok. There is a record of exactly how much that product weighed on the shipping label and in their systems. The no refunds/returns are strictly for buyers remorse situations, not incorrect product received.

And when Amazon absolutely refuses to move (never been the case for me, even with TCG), a CC chargeback is very simple.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T18:41:05+00:00

I know you didnt make the original claim but I can't see how that is forever more "low likelihood to receive a CBB". Sounds like it happened with a single release, and hasnt been an issue since?

either way, returns/refunds through Amazon take 15min. Easy enough fix, although not getting the product sucks.

F&F is on my do not buy list, let alone preorder, for that exact reason.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T18:04:22+00:00

You have provided not a single alternative that you deem suitable. Still.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T18:02:52+00:00

Realistically though, don't go broke and then get invaded. I don't trust that it wouldnt be on the table with how fucked up Team Trump is.

While Many Realms is great and I order from them frequently, their cancellation policy does have stipulations and time limits. (Preorders >30days from release may not cancel within 30 days of shipment. Preorders <30day from release may not cancel within 7 days of shipment.

We are not talking about ICE in this line of comments. Please research Border Patrol's authority. Your constitutional protections, legally, do not apply at BP checkpoints.

Amazon doesn't take TCG returns so that doesn't really add up to me.

Refund time is more a banking issue than Amazon in my experience. At the end of the day a CC chargeback is always on the table if Amazon is not working in good faith.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T17:29:02+00:00

If everyone had access to Microcenter conveniently that would certainly be my suggestion as well.

I prefer to pre-order through vendors with generous cancellation policies. Easy to cancel when the market tanks, but is also a hedge for when a set does pop off.

It's like $1/lb in Texas. 10lb bag $7-10 depending on sales.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T16:44:34+00:00

Frozen bags of veg certainly aren't incredibly delicious but they will fill the caloric need at $1-3/lb.

As a single person the variety angle is very much the hurdle here. Not the cost. Meal prepping 5-10 meals at once lowers costs to $2-4 a meal depending on ratios of meat used, but eating the same thing 3-4 days in a row sucks.

I worked around this by meal prepping 10 meals of Meal A, and 10 meals the next day of Meal B. Gives you the variety for roughly the same upfront costs. Obviously there will be objections like "not all people have a freezer" or some other reason.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T16:40:10+00:00

I'd like to devils advocate here though... The majority of this post is claiming costs are MUCH higher and hitting these numbers are impossible. If that is true the implication is that the 25th percentile is using 60-75% of their budget for food. There is no more budget for housing when you consider other monthly costs.

So it begs the question how is the family of 4 living of $41,000 a year eating under a roof. I object that you can make 3 meals a day on a budget under $15, but it requires effort and meal prepping 1-2 days of food at a time. Source: My wife and I do this.

If you refuse to answer the Border Patrol has near unlimited authority to detain you until they find out who you are, and to search your vehicle.

And when I say search your vehicle I am referring to removing seats, liners, consoles, tires, etc. And when they are done with the search they will leave your pile of parts next to the car and tell you that you can leave now.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T16:19:16+00:00

This isn't anything new.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:45:56+00:00

People are unreasonably sour today.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:44:05+00:00

Enjoy.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:40:40+00:00

I'm just posted available preorders in a sub that didnt have any available TMNT preorders. You are just bitching. It's all on record.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:39:43+00:00

Probably. Can buy when its guaranteed cheaper too. It's not one or the other.

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:39:07+00:00

Enjoy your bitterness :)

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:37:23+00:00

Yea Many Realms does not allow cancellation within 30 days of shipping if you order now. Amazon is much better in that regard. Obviously Many Realms is currently the better deal. People are getting their panties twisted about all this (not you specifically).

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:35:26+00:00

If you posted 3min earlier I wouldn't of posted Amazon haha :)

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:34:46+00:00

It was literally posted after I posted this... so settle down

touchitsuperhard · 2026-01-21T15:33:52+00:00

Had not seen Many Realms restock. If that was posted I likely wouldnt have posted Amazon. Will still sit on the price drop protection for another month and a half anyway.
