In my case it was:

PC shop: We can only send GPU to you over regular mail from a neighboring country
Me: Okay, 2 weeks time but...not too bad
Post office: receives package, does NOT send it to the local depot until the very last day and then gives me 4 hours time on one specific day to pick it up
Me: Isn't home on that day, package gets sent back, arrives at shop after just 1 week
PC shop: Wanna try this again, free of charge?
Me: *sigh* Hit me again

Gonna be on the post office's rear end every goddamn day this time tho, if I don't see that notification in the box in one week's time.

It's really amazing how many of them continue to insist that the bugs never happen to them. Like, there is nothing you could say to me that would more instantly signify that you either don't actually play the game or you're willing to straight-up bullshit about it to justify yourself. It's just so blatantly a lie.

Reminds me that I need to choose a new GPU to replace an aging 980 strix in my old rig. I should probably upgrade the old 6600k too, but it seems to still do the job.

Any GPU suggestions anyone?

Had to quickly decide if you were talking 4k Resolution or $4k ship package. :D

No to either though haha, somewhat ironically playing SC in 2015 almost completely put me off pc games, to the point were I gave the gaming pc to the wife and now just have a very out of date but reliable workhorse pc. :)

Hang on a minute, he 'completed' a game mode (pirate swam?) to get it as a reward, but rather than it actually being a reward ship it just gives you the option to *BUY* it? :thunk:

lol, It used to be the Glaive. You were a "chosen one" to be given the option to buy a $350 USD ship. Not joking. I was an idiot that bought it after complaining on spectrum that my only reward was being allowed to buy it.

Part of the account I refunded thankfully.

Yeah they've done that multiple times. Completing Arena Commander is actually really hard because of all the glitches and poo poo that can go wrong, but for a long time if you did you unlocked the ability to buy a worthless alien fighter for like 300 bucks. Exclusive!

Yeah they've done this for a couple of limited ships. It's literally just a skin - you know, the kind they said you'd be able to apply to ships any time using their fancy new skin system - and people still shell out for it.

He even already has the actual ship, so this is literally just as you say, a seperate "skin" for that expensive ship.

$90 for a ship skin? After going through a lovely gamemode 'challenge' to win the right to buy it?

If I was CR I wouldn't be able to ever go on camera straight faced to communicate with backers without instantly pissing myself laughing at how utterly unfailingly gullable they are. :D

I should have clarified. It is a whole ship that you get, but the only difference between it and the one in the store right now is the skin. Right now in Star Citizen skins don't work like they do in other games and probably shouldn't be called a "skin" at all. If you buy the red Gladius, you get a Gladius identical to the one you already have, but red.

It's a 'skin' in the sense that there is nothing unique about the ship except it's red, is what I meant.
