Hey All, I wasn't aware that BBR doesn't offer refunds on deposits. In my opinion poor business practice. Since I have this outstanding deposit on the of 50 Euro. Anyone here looking for the Alfa Romeo Giulia 2015 Quadrifoglio without display with Silver wheels? Let me know? Live and Learn. Cheers!
PS - The team at DS will no longer report on any news from the brand.

BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
I am interested but with gun metal wheels. Would it work?
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Nevermind I grabbed the last one available with gun metal wheels. Sold out now.
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Ha! Funny how the model been sold out for weeks, and one showed up this week...Atalante wrote:Nevermind I grabbed the last one available with gun metal wheels. Sold out now.
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Yes this is strange. Even this morning it was sold out then one showed up and just before I put it in the cart I swear I saw Qty2. Since I purchased one it seems sold out for good.
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Why, hopefully not just because they won't refund your deposit? I've looked into doing a pre-order with them before, and it's fairly clear that the deposit is not refundable. Whether that's poor business practice is debatable (and I have no desire to do so).[KRAFTIG] wrote:Hey All, I wasn't aware that BBR doesn't offer refunds on deposits.

I've posted only a few times, but I do visit this site just about every day to get news on the latest offerings, and as BBR is one of my favorite brands to hear you won't be covering them anymore is disappointing.
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
Its more than their position on the refund. No one here takes home a salary, we work hard just like everyone else. This sites promotes all brands. If our team reaches out for a small favor I expect a little gratitude or bend in the rules in return. Their customer service is poor, so my position is to not promote their brand.

Diecastsociety - Your KInda Definitive Information Resource WE HATE BBR
The only thing this will hurt is your site.

Sometimes you need to take a stance against the establishment, read the passage from the "About" link. The DS was created by collectors for collectors.damnyouebay wrote:Diecastsociety - Your KInda Definitive Information Resource WE HATE BBR

PS Hate is a strong word, one I rarely use.
Re: BBR Desposit / Anyone want a Alfa?
I think that taking a stance is fine. Your site is not 100% objective and that's perfectly fine with me. So no more every color of the rainbow / BBR Ferrari resin / free advertising in the news section is a good news. But I hope you will make some exceptions for the coming BBR diecast pieces many here are looking for. Exoto is (kinda) covered in DS and they have much worse business practices.

Thanks for seeing my point. I plan on adding some of the diecast pieces, as always full review will followAtalante wrote:I think that taking a stance is fine.
