    Anybody in here order a Godzilla Premium through Player 1 Amusements? Just curious how backed up they are in terms of getting them in. I know there's obviously a lot of people waiting. I just ordered one a couple months ago and was very surprised that they didn't even take a deposit.

    Quoted from Saltimbanco:

    Depends, where are you from? Eastern side, I find Michel to be straightforward in letting people know just how much things are backed up. My experience was that he always asks for a deposit, but things may have changed since last year..

    Ordered through Jerry at the Mississauga location. And I personally have nothing bad to say about Jerry. Ordered a JJP GNR from him in Dec. 2020 and it arrived in Sept 2021. 10 months was a long time, but not his fault. I fully understand he did all that he could and the game eventually arrived. When that order was placed, I had to put down the standard $1000 deposit.

    Godzilla Premium was ordered in January 2022 and I was surprised that he never asked for a deposit. He doesn't seem to have any estimate as to when the game will arrive. (And again, I understand that it's not his fault, it's well known that Stern is backed up). I also appreciate that he was honest and told me that he couldn't give me an estimate.

    But it definitely has me wondering, just how backed up these orders for Godzilla Premiums are. The "no deposit required" just to me feels like there's no guaruntee when/if the game will ever show up. Either that or they don't want to take a deposit because that would lock in my final price and they want the right to raise the price when it eventually arrives? Just curious if anybody had any insight.

    And as I said, my dealings with Jerry from Player One have always been positive, I don't have anything bad to say about him.
