Default RE: GENESIS REVIEW

Afterall, who should be more important, the people that bought the truck or the ones thinking about it?
That's the point tweety! I'm not just thinking about buying the truck, I made a finicial commitment to buy the truck. Many people that either put down a deposit or paid in full for their truck but have not yet got one, while there are hobby shops out there that just have them sitting on the shelf. CEN's whole deal with delaying the release as long as they did was to make sure they had enough trucks to cover the initial pre-orders, what they failed to tell anyone was that they were only sending to LHS's and that everybody else would have to wait for the second shipment. I understand their commitment to support LHS's but would it have been that difficult for CEN to have verified that all the LHS's pre-orders were actually accounted for rather than the LHS just telling CEN "send us 20 trucks, we'll sell 'em". I and many others are being made to wait just because we ordered through online merchants. That, to me, is not right. We went through the whole not knowing when the shipment will arrive with the first batch, we are making a commitment to CEN by saying we are going to buy your truck (through pre-orders) the least CEN could do is keep us up to date with what is going on.
