Tips: Ordering From Exoticar (not a question)

first of all i don't want to start a rage about how bad exoticar is and their shipping problems but i have a tip. next time you order from them don't order through the website becasue the website doesn't tell you if the item is in stock or not. most of the time the newer item aren't in stock. if you want to order from them order from the phone (1800EXOTICAR). when you tell them the car number ask them if it is instock or not and they would tell you. i just wanted to tell you guys this before you get pissed off when you find out one of your cars ore on backorder.

Re: Ordering From Exoticar

They suck. There is this policy, where if they don't have the exact item you are looking for, they will send you a car that is similar!!?!! WTF!! I had to send back the car 3 times!! Then they changed their other policy and I had to pay to send it back!! All is well now tho. But yea..they suck.

Re: Ordering From Exoticar

i so far havn't had any problems w/ them other than that they don't tell you that things are on backorder online that's why i use the phone other than that i think their okay. sometimes their prices are high but sometimes their the lowest.

hmm.......exoticar,
Ok, first of all let me say that I'm not trying to bash then or anything but just describing my experiences in dealing with them. I had dealt with them a number of times, everything went great for the first couple times. But the last few times I was really, REALLY impressed by them (in a negative way). I've had numerous problems with them- items on b/o ( I waited 4 months the longest), wrong colors, called them and they said they would take care of it. Then the only time, which was the last time I bought from them, I received a piece of crap from them---- yes, it was a piece of CRAP, not just broken model during shipping or anything like that. I received one with scratches, missing headlight covers, door hinge problems, reapplied stickers all over the model, broken windshied, AND in wrong box! After this time I cancelled the rest of order that I had with them and decided never to deal with them again! NEVER!!!

So, in conclusion, I'd not call them the worst since I'm relatively new to diecast but they are certainly the worst I've dealt with and I can safely say that they are not even remotely close to being one of the best diecast sellers out there because everyone else I've dealt with are better. I would not recommend them to anyone unless you don't mind trouble yourself to deal with them with all the problems they will have. If you want a good diecast and a good buying experience, do yourself a favor by buying from someone else.

I was probably a little too emotional, but after seeing what other people posted, I felt I should also share my experience with exoticar here. Don't worry, I think you should get the s-class w/o any problems though (since it's a new item and priced rather high) ...........

I think they do ship to Portugal if they use Global Express Mail (EMS) as the shipping method, but to be sure I suggest you ask them any questions before ordering though and beware for import duties/customs. Also I would check out my local online shops first if I were you cuz the shipping could be very costly.......
