karttu Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 While having proper distribution and support channels is great, it also means that price will go up. Original RetroHQ price was £140 which in today's rate is 160€. Dragonbox lists JagGD for 190€ which is 19% increase and again that's fine, 20% is typical profit margin for such products. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main issue with waiting time will be getting stock ready, which I will have more time to do if I’m not having to deal with orders. Like I said in another message, the price is very much different depending on whether it is sold by RetroHQ or by DragonBox. I have no reason to order from AtariAge as the shipping and duty costs will make it the most expensive option. So, I hope you will ship 186 carts yourself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I click the recaptcha, get the green check and hit send message and I get a please wait banner and then the recaptcha times out. I'd like to be added to the waiting list though. Same here. I've tried multiple times and the recaptcha fails. Please add me waitlist as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The form is working and the emails have been getting through, but I need to investigate why it's decided to start misbehaving as you described. I've moved the waiting list signup to an external Google Form, which makes it a little easier for me as well (as it'll stick the responses straight in a spreadsheet). ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not margin, it's VAT! I've not had to be VAT registered due to my turnover not requiring it, however larger retailers are, so they have to collect VAT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I suspected, since AA price is similar to RetroHQ (and in US the sales tax is not displayed). So to my point, if I had the choice, I would prefer RetroHQ as a seller.

pjbramley Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 I did place an order when it was first offered. Where can I find what order number I am? Can not find a confirmation email? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wont accidentally get two, or be charged without contact, so don't worry about that. To quote SainT above, Re JADGD, ive signed up at AA as RetroHQ still not displaying preorders yet https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1215 Re LinxGD, ive also signed up at AA as RetroHQ still not displaying preorders yet https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1214 Hope your work/life balance is getting more manageable SainT, best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonkeydave Posted April 29, 2020 Share Posted April 29, 2020 Hello, I have been lucky enough to have beta tested the latest version. I have fed a few points back to retroHQ, it’s a great bit of kit. I have reviewed it on my blog, just need to fix some videos which I have some issues with. Will post blog over the weekend... big thumbs up to retroHQ and what he has done ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
