This will warn other not to shop there !

Just cancel

Cancel your orders!!
These guys are not affiliated with Mad Catz in any way shape or form.
I talked to Mad Catz and they said they are making another run on the SF4 peripherals in May and all retailers should be getting more.
VGC will not be getting their TE sticks until their distributor decides to stop selling them on Ebay for an inflated price. If you hold out and wait for a stick from VGC, even if you get it, you are getting what you deserve. I don’t know about anyone else but I signed up for their high priced ($180)sticks because no one else had any available.
You are going to be better off just canceling and getting one for $150 from a reputable seller.

You can go to MadCatz.com and see a list of their retailers, surprise no VGC.com!

CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL!!!
they gave me a full refund 2 weeks ago. they cannot charge you any fees since they charged you for something they do not and will not have. that is illegal!

lol, these bastards are crazy!

i think the fact that no one from vgc has come back on srk to try and restore a little bit of reputation should answer everybodies questions. its really funny though i mean all these pages of just straight trash on these guys and they got nothing to say. its like they admit that they are garbage.

it really sucks shelling out $200 +/- and then not knowing what is going on with your money (not even able to get an honest answer about your money). I hope vgc has learned that you reap what you sow, cuz this is really gonna come back on them.

Well… The good news is next week I will be receiving my Street Fighter 4 Tournament Edition Arcade stick cost me $40 more then VGC . But its not worth my time waiting for one at VGC or dealing with the liars that work there. Because you will probably never get a TE stick from them in the first place.Just think about this for a minute pay $40.00 more and you get it next week and never have to deal with VGC anymore and you dont have to listen to all there bs that they feed you over the phone that to me is money well spent in my opinion =) So with that said Im happy as hell to know I’m getting one Big Big SMILE :lol:
And I cant wait for it to arrive next week =) ,After all the hell I went through with VGC for the last 4 months . It’s nice to know there was a happy ending to all this BS and lies I had to go through with those you know whats at VGC .

Best of luck to everyone after all you been through with these guys called VGC I hope you all get your hands on one as well !

                                                                               Lyssa

Trust me, there are a ton of people never check that site before making their purchases. Everyone should file their complaints with the NY State Attorney General’s Office instead.

WTF WTF W-DA-F

well they havent pushed it back two more weeks…So many angers I have.

Everything about that store is bootleg. I heard from another poster here at SRK that they have been sending letters from Madcatz saying the sticks won’t be available til this time and some excuse etc…My English report writing teacher who works with businesses in letter writing and advertising looked at the letter and just laughed and said either the company dont know how to compose a letter or this store is pulling some shit because it was the worst looking letter he ever seen.

Behold the laughter.

Check this out. My brother in law almost purchased something from these guys today. He wanted a white ceramic PS3 but these assholes have the nerve to make you build a bundle with crap games you don’t want. I told him about my experience and showed him this thread. Logged off just like that. Everything about this place is bad. From overpriced stuff ($50 bucks for Mega Man 3? I almost paid for a near $60 copy of Hokuto No Ken Best edition when I got it from Play-Asia for $30) to making you build system bundles.

If i were someone here, I really would consider contacting the state attorney. This is not a legit business.

Im sorry guys. Hearing all this really makes my blood boil.

^ I bet that letter is fake. MarkMan…you may want to pass this on to the higher ups at MC to check it out if you want. VGC is ghetto and a bunch of jabronies. DON’T BUY there.

I was wondering dose anyone live in NY that can take a picture of this place called video game central and post it here . I guess there address is Video Game Central
15640 Crossbay Boulevard
Howard Beach, NY 11414-2745
Phone: (718) 323-2113 (718)323-1515 Got this address from Howard Beach yellow pages…
I kinda want to see what this hell hole looks like LMAO :rofl:

Wow…
I’m so glad i canceled my order because i bought a stick and it came in a week!
A WEEK! Guys do yourselves a favor and just cancel your order because if i didn’t than i would still be waiting like all of you.
But now I got my stick and I’m happy as hell.

2 in 1 Super Canceled :lame:

I here that … haha I did the same thing canceled my order and bought my TE Stick some where else It will be here next week can’t wait ! VGC will never come through with them I don’t believe.There making money off peoples money while everyone waits they must be making a fortune off the interest because they straight up charged everyone in full god only know’s how many 100’s of pre-orders they took .There making bank off this for sure ! VGC there nothing but scumbags . I hope there business goes under =)

well cancle my standerd edition but i cant find a good site for either stick right now so i either wait till friday to get a te stick from amazon or i just find me a site where i can get SE in the united states.

whered you order your stick from?
sharing is caring :stuck_out_tongue:

You just missed it yesterday, from here:

http://store.gameshark.com/StreetFighterIV

The SE fightsticks were in stock for quite awhile.

I also canceled my order last friday to open a order with Gamestop. I am getting my stick today.

4 day wait > over 4 month(and growing) wait

I understand a lot of people aren’t canceling because they don’t have any where else to order from, but everyone will definitely get a chance, just not from VGC.

Cancel and rate them badly at http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Video_Game_Central like Lyssa said. I know I did.

I email them to ask what the status was this was my answer.

Dear Luis,

As of right now we are still waiting for more shipments to arrive. Some have already come in and shipped out. Please note these items are shipping out sporadically and are arriving a few pieces at a time. Unfortunately we do not have an estimate date for when the next shipment will arrive. However as soon as the do, all orders are and will be taken cared of accordingly and rapidly.

DID ANYONE GET ONE???
NO MAMES!!! :chainsaw:

Yeah… right. I’m sure. Canned note of stench. I wouldn’t believe it unless I saw video footage of them receiving one, including their store front, boxing it, and dropping it off at UPS. And even then I’d be skeptical.

What happened to ETA: April 7th? LOL

Then they say should arrive that week or next. April 14th came…this week or next…or by the end of the month…

Well its practically the end of April now sooooo…I am relieved that I don’t have to deal with them anymore and hope you guys with orders still, good luck but I wouldn’t count on it.

Sure enough they will get you a stick EVENTUALLY…
