Major delivery today and a lovely mix of stuff.
Sadly the POTF2 sets have been opened - but condition is good and price was sensible and that counts 😀
I had planned on opening the phantom - it maybe not….

Grabbed a few bits from Game today- pleased with them (and the prices), but if I was a kid getting Ghost Rider (like kids buy toys 🙄) I'd be pissed as the box, whilst lovely, is just empty space.

Yeah - they seem to have missed the point there a little - lucky I have two, so I'm just going to leave that silly sticker be.
But the figure arrived OK and the packaging was OK - first thing I have ordered from them in like -20 years :) - so at least I have confidence they can fulfil an order now.

I picked up some D&D figures from them recently and had never used them so was wondering if it would work out. I must admit that all was fine in the end and they packed them well and even their contact was good with a few questions I had. Zavvi on the other hand have cancelled orders on me after waiting for over a year for items and packed things badly at times, so I'm getting less and less from them. I'm currently waiting on around £250 worth of pre-ordered items (the first ones I ordered in 1021!), and I've seen them turning up from other on-line retailers over here, but still no luck from them.

I'm still holding out some hope but I feel pretty done with them now unless they have something in stock.

My advice would be to never order from Zavvi, they are well known to take the order and then cancel it when they can't fulfill the orders they have.
I tend to only use Star Action Figures or Dave Tree at All The Cool Stuff.
I hope that helps.

I think you're on the money and I have been going with SAF recently which has worked out well.

Cheers though, Zavvi have really let me down one to many times and I'm not holding my breath on my last orders from them.

I haven't yet been let down by Zavvi - but they are certainly slipping in their fulfilment standards. I have 3 orders with them right now (including the Mando N1) so fingers crossed. I do have one Pokemon order that is now a few months overdue, not looking good.

Although just because I want to spread the orders around I canceled my Zavvi N1 order and placed one with ForbiddenPlanet

Mixed bag.
The Indy figures are nice and the POTF2 was a bargain, but the Tiin was a mess so ended up with an appointment with Doctor Sellotape…
