VIDEO GAME CENTRAL...they are a proven scam. Don't buy sticks or ANYTHING from them!

Let’s see what the guy said in the PM’s :wink:

Sooo, why are OldSkoolFool’s posts deleted and gone…?

They’re not. MarkMan’s post is gone in which he confirmed with Madcatz Sales Dept. VGC NEVER WAS PROMISED an initial batch of TE sticks. MarkMan was sick and tired of VGC blaming Madcatz and throwing blame all to them when VGC should never have taken a single preorder. What about that Old Skool Bitch? You haven’t talked about that have you?:nono:

The funny thing is, I remember Markman warning everybody about ordering from them a long time ago, even before pre-orders were closed. VGC had pictures on their site of a stick layout that madcatz wasn’t releasing. The only reason I went ahead and ordered from VGC later was because some people had ordered other things from them in the past and received it.

Let me go digging for that post.

I’m not sure why people are so surprised Markman deleted his post. He was basically giving out confidential company information. If I did that at the company I work for, I would be fired on the spot.

Now, to those who are able to find TE sticks at others stores, are you in North Texas? >_<
I can’t find one TE stick in DFW, not even on Craig’s list!

I had really good luck on Amazon.com finding one yeah I paid about $40.00 more but you know what it was worth every penny and also the hunt is over for one now. I’m happy. I found a place on Amazon that was located in my area of Southern California and I was pretty much able to get it next day without even paying for shipping it was like getting free one day air delivery for me . Lighting Fast delivery and the product came double boxed with foam all around it . Also it was nice to know it was never opened what so ever the security clear tape was not even broke. So with that said Amazon is a safe choice and a good one at that =)

ok so what is the deal with VGC? i’ve still got my preorder with them and it took me a while to get an answer out of them, but they told me i would be getting an email when they ship me my stick. they still haven’t shipped me nothin so i guess they haven’t gotten anything.

just cancel and try to find it locally or order it somewhere else it a lot faster i cancel mind last week and found one se stick at a gamezone.

oh yea got my stick so when are you gonna get your sticks vgc …lol

Look at the background. they have LOTS.

man wtf:wtf:, having preordered one early january, and seeing them flaunting their sticks makes me really angry and upset. i just received an email from vgc and now they are telling me more will be released in May however they cant tell me when in may. Sadly i still dont want to cancel my order until i can find another supplier. bahhhh this really blows fuck sticks.

i do wonder how they issue their orders, are they shipping to the orders in the states first because its cheaper for them?? or do they do follow the order list of issuing out to those who ordered first etc? or are they shipping to their mates first??

id like to see old school fool shedding some light on this matter coz this would definitely deter me away from further doing business with vgc. :tdown:

Yea, I’ll tell you where all those sticks in the background are going…one goes to Old Skool Fool, one to Randy, one to Dave and the rest to VGC employees and Ebay. Why sell them to Pre order customers when a little ghetto shop can make almost twice the money per stick on E-Bay? He madde the youtube video to make people believe they’re delivering some TE sticks but they’re not guys. Not ONE reported stick from them yet.

That’s very true , What Benjiedude is saying. Also, Anyone who is still waiting for a Tournament Stick with VGC is wasting there time . It’s the same BS story over and over again . Most of us decided to cancel our orders and move on else where. With all there lies you would be head deep in shit lol :amazed:

And I must say moving on was a good thing . I got my Tournament stick this TE fight stick is Amazing super smoooth and super responsive This stick is the best fight stick ever you will definitely step up your game on Street Fighter 4 with this TE stick =)

i just don’t know where to find it elsewhere. no gamestop in my area carries them. the nearest one is about a 3 hour drive from me. so i don’t know where to look or what to do. i’m staring at an ebay auction that is around 160 right now but i doubt i’ll be able to win it. aside from that i’ve got 23 dollars to my name. i can’t buy anything now.

Sign up for Wii Alerts and/or keep calling local Gamestops/Gamecrazy stores and ask them to have TE’s from other stores shipped to yours. I have 2 TE’s and could’ve had at least 5 or 6 more this way. Don’t let these guys hold your money any longer!

Well… Even if you can’t get buy one right now because you don’t have the money , Does not mean you wont find one . There not as limited as everyone thought they would be. I think right now the demand is super high for all the top end fight sticks but as the months go on I think you will be able to pick one up just about any where =) Just keep saving and keep a look out for this Amazing TE Fight Stick !

                                                                     Best of luck to you

                                                                             Lyssa

ok well i just won an ebay auction for one that is only 200 with shipping. which is only about 23 dollars more than what i paid VGC with shipping. i’m just gonna go with that and pay on my next paycheck.

congratulations on being the top bidder :woot: Your truly going to love your new TE Stick even the box that the TE comes in is f$%cking awesome as well . Just the way they put the whole thing together was well thought out :tup:

I didn’t want to say anything here. I was just reading updates here to see if they had actually shipped to anybody.

I called yesterday and cancelled, I figured my odds are better in getting one if i hunt one online (elsewhere) or keep buggin ebgames/gs

WOOO HOOOOO mine just got shipped yesterday. I’m glad I canceled my preorder for an SE stick I have a TE coming my way weeeeeeeeee!!! lol no homo just happy man. I got it from ebay just 50 more dollars than retail(that includes shipping 160), but worth it cause it was on hand and already there. It’s was saying come get me get me now. There were only 2 left. So I bought 1 of the 2. :rock::woot:
