Believe Kraftwerk's Computer Love would be more apropos, Levit! :wink1:

To your point about a payment plan, I've thought about similar things with customerizers in the past, as it gives the illusion that one's not spending as much as one really is (I sometimes use payment plans through SSC for that reason even though I technically do not need to do so). However, it seems to me that if one a) doesn't have the money on-hand or b) have a credit line or some such that one could 'loan themselves' the money and pay back within a few months, then one should not be buying these. Really it's crazy irresponsible otherwise. For nomake, it would be a huge hassle to take payments and for sure some of those who make the first or second payment will end-up dropping out before the final payment's made and nomake would have to refund them/find a new buyer. It really makes no sense for them to offer.

As for overall price, I seem to recall you having this exact conversation in regards to the Driver figure and eventually you ended-up just getting it anyway. I dunno, these figures if anything look technically more complex than Driver and will make a pretty epic display for anyone that loves the band. Although I'd prefer not to be priced-out myself (and I pretty much am... I could do it but it wouldn't really be too responsible since we're buying a house soon), I'm OK with it since these figures are going to be made to a very high standard and likely will never be equalled. Instead of everyone and their dog having a set, it'll be kept to a small group of super hardcore Daft Punk fans that'll figure out a way to make it work. Keep hearing people say that they want to buy their own suits but unless one's buying Kato anything else is going to cheapen nomake's work, IMO.
 
Re: Electronic duo by nomake ※Closed

I agree that this set is as good as any figure I have ever seen on here. That's why being on the waitlist I still want this!
However I totally disagree with why I would prefer payments over one lump sum. Aside from normal bills that everyone has, I collect Many things daily and putting $2400.00 all at once on One item can tie me down to Just that one collectible for a few weeks. Whereas payments allows me to continue my norm of ordering other collectibles during that same time period.
Pretty much most collectibles sites now offer payment plans. It's not cause it's an illusion that the item is cheaper, it's just so you don't have to be burden with a huge payment all at once.
Beto offers payment plans now as does two others customizers that I just bought from on here this month.
If you request a non-refundable deposit of 30% and just even two more payments. You're talking about $800.00 a payment. Big difference to dropping $2400.00 One time.
 
Re: Electronic duo by nomake ※Closed

i made a similar argument with the RM Bickle superset...but that was before any of the reveal was actually done...once it showed up...then i saw why we were being charged....PLUS...the character appeal was alot greater (to me) then say a daft punk....i liked this product moreso for the craftmanship and the killer display this would make...not because of the appeal of the characters...which is not on the same level (for me) as Bickle...thats my logic behind me wanting to still purchase this....its not that i couldn't afford this...i just would prefer NOT to drop all of it at once.....as far as the potential for people dropping out mid transaction during a payment plan...put this in writing and let people know that if they decide to back out...that they would not get their first payment back....and have them agree...keep those records handy when someone tries to fight you using paypal or their CC....i don't know at this point...i know that this will look awesome as a display tho...:)
 
Re: Electronic duo by nomake ※Closed

Yep, looking forward to seeing nomake's video and eventually on display, for those committed enough to pick them up.

Re: Electronic duo by nomake ※Closed

I'm not giving up on my space purely because I plan on having these till I die and not only that one of my friends who knows (deadmau5) said he'd get them signed for me by daft punk! :0

I'm hoping a payment plan becomes available as I also have pieces I'm currently paying for! And an art box would be awesome so as we'd be paying top money for them ;)

Make sure it's really them. At NYCC a few weeks ago. Two guys were dressed as DAFT PUNK and people were Absolutely convinced that they were the real deal. They were signing stuff and taking photos with everyone. I heard a few people say......Hey did you hear DAFT PUNK was here today??
