I suck at timely shipping, I've always sucked at timely shipping, and I've had to work really, really hard not to suck at timely shipping, and mainly failed. I'm also bad at keeping track of inventory, pre-orders, and all that fun stuff. And I'm tired of having to deal with the fallout from that, and even more tired of disappointing people. Even when I post on the store itself that shipping won't be fast, people don't bother to read that (I'm not blaming them, I probably wouldn't either) and expect quicker service than I'm able to give them. And rightfully so. I'm tired of fighting against the tide, and it just isn't something I want to do anymore. I want to go back to being just a collector, and hopefully repair some of the bridges I've burned by being slow to ship over the years. Any hard feelings are all on me, and I accept that.
I will of course honor all orders and pre-orders already made, and any made by the end of the year, but after that, I am done. I may bring a boatload of stuff to Megomeet this year, or sell it all to someone who wants to start their own online store, but one way or the other it'll all go away and I can finally reclaim my garage. I imagine I'll continue to buy a case of each new figure that comes out, one for me, one for my son, and will eBay or sell on the marketplace the remaining two, but that's it. I may even be persuaded to sell the megostore.com domain, if anyone wants it.
If you have any questions, please PM or email me, don't post them here. I don't want to start a "please don't go" or a "I'm glad you're going, you rotten, slow-shipping jerk" thread, I really don't. And, anyway, I'll still be around, fixing software glitches, installing new mods, and helping this place run as smoothly as possible. And hopefully the hobby will become fun for me again, because it really hasn't been for quite a while.
Thanks for reading!
