I had pre-ordered a hoodie that was stated to not be available for release until this coming winter. A few weeks ago, I'd received a reminder email that my payment would come out upon release of this hoodie, with no implications that Good Smile was preparing to release this hoodie anytime soon. Not even two weeks later, without any notice that the item was being shipped until after the payment had come out, they took $80 out of my account when I distinctly remember this particular item not ready for release until WINTER 2026/2027
I had reached out to Good Smile, explaining my financial situation and that this sudden pull of payment came out of nowhere at the worst time possible, to which it didn't even seem like CS actually read my email and instead sent the standard "We cannot issue a refund, sorry" response.
I think its pretty terrible of them to have a specific release date, then proceed to send no notice to scheduled release changes and their CS is equally as terrible. Honestly buy your stuff elsewhere, you'll save yourself the trouble even if you have to spend a little extra.
