As mentioned in my not for human consumption post, I am not pleased about how things are going down on a certain club. For God's sake...people keep talking about Minako's "reputation" but when you come right down to it, it's all assumption. People automatically assume the worst, and they don't even think of Minako as a human being.
Honestly...how hard is it to understand that NO DEPOSIT doesn't mean NO OBLIGATION! It's fine that Volks doesn't require a deposit and all, but it's no different from a COD. Which means that once that doll comes in, you HAVE to pay. And since Minako is basically playing errand girl to a lot of people, many of which like to back out of paying when the thing takes too long, guess who gets to pick up the slack? (sighs)
It's not fair for her to pay for somebody's several hundred dollar "It took too long" or "I changed my mind" or even "I can't pay". Whatever reason it is, it costs her hundreds of dollars for each cancellation, and what would happen if she couldn't sell the cancelled doll? It could ruin her financially--it ruined another errand service that wound up having to shut down. Just one person is all it takes! Minako has to be able to protect herself--THAT'S why she makes you pay up front!
I would love to jump in at that club, but I'll leave that to the moderators--it's not my right to try to discipline club members. But I really wish I could!
