It is shocking how Hot Topic is, still not over how they handled the issue with the Celestia shipment. Praying that the Elvis Stitch I ordered ships and arrives without a hitch.

I'm still bitter about that, too. I ordered Luna, and she took about 20 days to get to her after I bought her. And all I got was a big, "I'm sorry we can't do anything for you." ](*,)

Their customer service is terrible. On the bright side, I got her before Christmas.

Hopefully your Stitch comes. Sends positive vibes~~~

I'm sorry you folks are having so much trouble with the Hot Topic ordering system. Truthfully, we've been having some issues with it in-store sometimes, too. But there's not much anyone can do that isn't on the corporate level.

Also a heads up- if you want to get your hands on Elvis Stitch, he showed up at my store in Illinois yesterday and when I came in to work today he was sold out, so I suggest grabbing him if you see him and not to put it off for a future purchase.

You don't have to apologize

It's not your fault or any HT employee's fault. That irksome if you have problems in-store, too.
Corporate needs to address some of the issues with their website, so customers won't get frustrated with customer service/in-store employees. Customer service with most online retailers has become kinda rotten lately, and copy-paste messages don't make things any better either.

I highly agree with you about Stitch. He seems like he's going to be very popular. There were 7 in one of my nearby stores yesterday and they were gone today.

It's nothing that you control. It's the higher up issues with corporate and the website that need to be addressed. The website should just be better about knowing what's in stock and what's not in stock. That's all. It's frustrating to know or not know if a product is coming back in stock (*cough*blue eye legolas*cough*) lol

And it's nice to meet a fellow Illinois collector!

Thanks for your understanding. :alien:

Karma pays back customers who are understanding and cooperative with us, I promise!

Yeah, he's gonna be a tough grab for anyone that hesitates. Same with the Red Eyed Crowley. My store got twelve and we have 2 left after one day.

PS: the HT pre-release rollerblade Harley is online now. http://www.hottopic.com/hottopic/Funko/ ... 291166.jsp

Who could ever blame the employees? You guys are one of the nicest stores that I have ever shopped at.

Haha. It looks like Legolas hasn't been back in stock for a long time so I don't really have a hope of getting him. Wishful thinking, though. :-$

Still have hot cash burning a hole in my pocket so if I don't find stuff I want I will def use it to pick up any exclusives I can find before they expire for you guys. When I went on Thurs I saw a couple Elvis Stitches, a 6" Titan, quite a few Magnetos and a few others.

me too! at least at my store, celestia really hasn't been selling so if that's a company-wide trend you'll probably be able get your hands on her sooner rather than later. Stitch is a total toss up!

I've seen a lot of stores that have a lot of Stitch and some that don't have any. It's just luck of the draw!

Elvis Stitch is available online

Postby **Kewl713** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 4:12 pm

So ... I happened to stop at a HT earlier while at the mall and saw a magneto. Someone picked him up then put him back down. I felt obligated to show him some love and took him home with me though I have one coming in the mail ... I like the set, except go Mystik. Took her home anyways for the discount. Did I make the right call?

When the girl said why the return? I almost said was the resell value not high enough

Woot! Went back to Hot Topic today and they had Elvis Stitch, so I got him! He's such a cutie, so glad I was able to get him.

Postby **ohheyitsshannon** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 7:57 pm

Got my hot cash order in today. I love all of my pops. :3

FYI, you get an extra 10% off your purchase in store if you're military

Postby **estrus** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 11:51 pm

That's a nice little perk!

They do, I would ask them to ask the manager to apply the discount if they don't know. Shows up on the receipt as Military discount(10%)

Postby **swind15** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 2:02 am

There were lots of exclusives today at the Raceway Mall in Freehold, NJ; including GitD Storm and metallic Magneto. No sign of Elvis Stitch though.

Postby **Streamline1175** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 2:12 am

Might have to go tomorrow to HT and see what I can find, maybe they restocked their inventory of Pops here in San Antonio!

I get it all the time as well. It's great combining with Hot Cash haha.

Is the Hot Cash promotion also for international buyers because I don't get it to activate it?

You might have to contact their customer service about that issue, but I think you should be able to use it.

Next time I go their I'm going to ask about it again... I mean who doesn't want an extra 10% off their total price

Postby **BillyLouis** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 4:08 pm

Finally was able to find a red eyed Crowley on HotTopic.com yesterday. Woot.

Now hopefully I'll see some new "Supernatural" POP!s announced.

Postby **Streamline1175** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 5:04 pm

They had only some Pops restocked back at the store near me, was at least able to pick up Comikaze Storm which was nice, but all the other exclusives seem to be out of stock for the past week or so. :sad2:

Postby **JsinLegacy** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 5:40 pm

Woo Hoo... just got shipping confirmation for my order of Lilo , Elvis Stitch, and Eren (Titan Form Rage)

Postby **BillyLouis** » Sun Jan 18, 2015 6:42 pm

I just got my shipping conformation for my red eyed Crowley, roller derby Harley and Dracula.
