Hmm August seems okay in my opinion it would make more sense for it to be September or October but yeah

For everyone who uses Collectable Aircraft Wings Australia, I contacted them today and they told me that they are expecting the NG April releases and exchange models to arrive this coming week.

My two models from the April exchange (Alia L1011 and BMI 757) arrived today. I got them via Aviation Center Berlin along with 2 other models that I ordered. They charged me 9€ per model for shipping and import. The free models even have the card with the code so that I earn points for the next free model.

I emailed NG a few days ago to see what I should do, since I chose squanchys as my retailer. Have not heard back and honestly don't expect to. Has anyone heard anything, or have any additional contact info for NG?

Squatchy's is not participating in the program anymore.

Squatchy's is not participating in the program anymore.

I know, but some of us chose him as a retailer and are now left with no retailer and no communication. Im just trying to communicate with NG and see if there is still any way to get our models

Sorry is that came off as rude, I'm just pretty miffed at the situation

Let us know if you hear back. I may have to find a new retailer or go down this path eventually here soon. Good Luck!

At least Squatchy’s was transparent about their backing out. I had selected PandaFox as my retailer for the December exchange (big mistake), and I still don’t have my models. I emailed them numerous times, gave up, and then emailed NG, and they replied once that they would look into the situation, but have not followed up and have basically given me the silent treatment since. Dealing with this has been absolutely frustrating on the whole, and I’ve just about resigned myself to not getting any of the models I redeemed.

Transparency is one thing. And yes he has certainly been very transparent about his decision to "opt out" and his complaints with the program in general. But that Transparency doesn't mean much when the end result is still every person that selected squanchysdiecasthanger as their retailer has been abandoned and told it is there responsibility to contact NG themselves.
The complaints he has are valid, but to me they seem like good reasons to not sign up again, not good reasons to opt to abandon the program after everyone selected them as their retailer.
I understand the concerns with tariffs, however no other retailer backed out as far as I know, and now people are receiving their models. As hopeful as I may be the fact is if you chose squanchysdiecasthanger, you are most likely not getting your model.
This has definitely left a bad taste in my mouth, and squanchy will not be seeing any "residual orders" from me in the future.

Chill, Bro.
I'm amused at all of you taking these things so personally.
You can write to NG directly and they will change the retailer for you.
Please stop complaining about things beyond individual control

Same here - they'll be getting hundreds of mails. Nothing personal here.
Doesn't hurt to write a follow up email or two

Chill folks
