Re: RAP4 not shipping till after Christmas

I think any retailer would do whatever they could to ensure they could make a Christmas delivery. I'm sure RAP4 tried to avoid delays being that the holidays are the biggest retail time of year. Sure, they probably could have rushed it, and placed a lower quality product in the marketplace in order to meet a date. But, in the end, while you may not be happy about not having it before Christmas, if it means getting a better product in the end, I think you'll be more satisfied than you would about getting something that is sub par with a potential for repair.

Just a suggestion, if you need something to wrap and stick under the tree while waiting for this, go buy a squirt gun or another toy gun and put it with a big picture of the actual item in a box. The recipient will still have the thrill of opening a gift on Christmas Day and you'll get the thrill of giving the gift when they realize what the real gift is. Just a thought.

Well, you beat me to it. I was just thinking on how to deliver the message to everyone, and came across yours. Sorry this happened to you, but you are still getting a gift for Christmas, the gift just wont be able to be played with until a month later. Kind of like getting a game system for xmas, but find out they were sold out and you will have to wait for the next run.

It does suck that they wont be shipping until after the holidays. But as RedMonkey stated, if it is for the quality of the product, it may be for the best. However, I did contact the owner personally to see if that was true and if at all possible I could receive one for you.

The thing you didn't mention is that RAP4 is offering 3 FREE magazines for any pre-orders for Christmas...that is a $112 dollar value offer. Which is pretty cool since you only need one more to have a full complement of magazines.

See, Brian. Told you that it wouldn't be that big of a deal.

You have to wait a few extra weeks. We aren't playing in any games between now and then (Besides the 15th, which we wouldn't have had our new markers anyway.) And now you get $112 worth of extra shiznit.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeah!!!

Re: RAP4 not shipping till after Christmas

Dude, I didn't know it was coming with free magazines for the pre-order. Did you really need to tell me that? That just increased my interest from 20% to 90% - lol

Did I mention that with those three FREE mags and the one that comes with it, amounts to four total.

So get the marker and all you need is one more mag to have one in the gun and four in the pouches.
