I don't remember ever seeing this before actualy. Not saying I didn't just that if I have I don't remember it.

And hey American Eagle makes pretty nice clothes.

Also my store isn't closing for not making any money, but because we have other priorities taking place in our life right now.

As long as we are talking about my store... Hey Arkhan, remember that pc98 and pcfxga for it you had me get for you then you decide you didn't want it anymore as soon as it got in? Yeah fuck you bro. Maybe I could have finished your order if you didn't change what you wanted every fucking 2 weeks.

Hey nectarsis, remember how I used to get you stuff off of yahoo japan with no commision? remember how that entire time you were talking about me behind my back? Yeah fuck you too bro.

It's not an order if you haven't paid for it. Like our rules say "Obligation starts when money changes hands." Your order for the winter sale, according to my records, was all sent out last December. If that is not the case, this is the first time I have heard about it since there is no written communication indicating so. I'm not sure why you're confusing that order with requests you made two months after?

I'm not pointing blame at you. I'm just saying you can't make any requests for products to be stocked because it's not really worth my time to track stuff down and sell it close to cost for someone who is not appreciative.

Don't get me wrong, I think you're a fine guy Ark. I just want you to understand the rules we have for our store. If they are unacceptable to you, there are many other fine gaming stores on the Internet. I'm sure some of them will even track you down some Dreamcast Broadband Adaptors.

Arkhan asking me to get him stuff is the same subject as PC-Engine Hell? Okay cool.

Quote from: guest on 08/24/2010, 05:16 PMAnd this is semi-offtopic, but what part of "hey man can you get these for me" / special orders translates to "hey stock this for some other dickhead to buy".  If I asked for it it means I want it.  It doesn't mean I want you to order it and put it on your site.   ](*,)   Nothing of that nature was mentioned, and it certainly isn't implied.  That just sounds like you're using gamers/importers to diversify your stock.   I don't like it.
Request Rules: http://www.risingstuff.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=25

Your adaptors never showed up here. Nothing I could do about that. But fortunately for you, there's a wealth of other people selling them for more.

Sensei and I got together and wrote up a post explaining our policies on special requests. We hope this clarifies things for everyone: http://www.risingstuff.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=1720

Also, we just lowered prices for the month on all items in the store! Hope you like it. ^_^

Quote from: Tablet on 07/17/2010, 03:32 PMFrom my experiences I found that having to pay by a different payment method each and everytime I tried to buy something to be a little irksome, I don't mind when an order goes wrong (unless I'm buying for a birthday present and the delay means the replacement won't get to me in time) as long as it's sorted which in my case it was.
Yeah we've stuck with credit cards for a long while now. Google Checkout was a disaster since it never reported to our store correctly. Real sorry about that. It's been easily as irksome for us dealing with all these. At least with credit cards everything is nice and straight forward.

You know, my store is having the best year yet so far. And the majority of our clientelle is repeat customers. They must just be fools for punishment.

If you've got problems with orders you've made, state em. That's fine. In fact its better than fine because I can resolve problems. What I can"t do is resolve issues that don't exist.

Edit: This will be my last post on the subject. I don't want to see this turn into some unending flamefest.

Arkhan doesn't have an order. He requested we stock some stuff. That's not an order. This is just another example of Mike's crew twisting the truth to fit their own desire to have rising stuff be some mega evil store. This is what I'm tired of and I want it to stop.

Look, I just want to do a good job of running my store. Let's face it nectarsis, neither you or mike have purchased anything from my store in over a year. Neither of you have any real idea what kind of business we are running now and are really just chasing after ghosts imo.

I'll be the first to tell you that as we were growing we've made plenty of mistakes. Hell, we are a couple of 20-something guys who when we started barely spoke any Japanese. But every year we grow a bit more and learn a lot more.

Oh come on nec buddy. You know better than anyone how much junk he has saved up. I mean the guy still talks about how we left some power adaptors (which were sent out later) out from orders 2-3 years ago as damning evidence of what a terrible company we are. :/

All this because I banned him from my forums for flaming Missa. Absolutely ridiculous.

Look, I'm not actually going to press charges. I don't have time to jump on a plane over to WI. I just want him to drop the wild speculation and false accusations.

I dunno, how long am i supposed to put up with him saying things that aren't true about my store? It's kind of ridiculous. He's basically become an Internet stalker of me and my company. I don't really care much what he posts on his site tbh, but the following me around the Internet to blast my company is just really out of hand. :/

Yeah if you'd like us to check just send us a message. We don't check each item for them when they come in because of time issues, but if there are a couple specific games you'd like us to check on we can.
#19
The burgers will be judged by the Rising Stuff forum members by whatever criteria they prefer from the submitted picture... So most likely "most awesome"/ "most bribes given" will be the winner.
#20
Yeah I guess there is a bit of a meat theme in there hehe. What do you guys think? Should I have it be a choice between burger time and a Bonk game for the first prize?
#21
We're running a little contest over on Rising Stuff to celebrate the waning days of Summer. Best burger gets a free copy of burger time plus store credit. More details below.

Would have done it for a NEC related game too but I couldn't think of any other good meat-related games. hehe

Hey guys, just wanted to give everyone a heads up. Recently we released a new version of our store. I'm sure many of you who have already tested it out here can confirm that it is a lot faster and easier to use than the last version.

More importantly, we've restocked almost EVERY PC-FX GAME! :) Check them out here if you get a chance:

https://www.risingstuff.com/store/index.php/cPath,28

As always, please let us know if any of our prices are on the high side or anything seems out of whack. :) We want to do all we can to connect fellow members of the gaming community with the fuel to keep it going so any feedback is appreciated!

Quote from: Zeon on 03/27/2009, 05:20 AMI don't think there's anyone here I hate or even dislike, hell not even Nintega (I wasn't around for the 2 other trolls mentioned), sure I got tired of his antics at some point, but to say that I hate him, well that would be a far stretch.

If anyone ever really gets to know me, they find out that I am very easy going, patient, and friendly. Even people who wrong me, I forgive pretty quickly. I can't hold grudges, it's just not in me.

I really don't like to argue pointlessly either, especially if it's over something really stupid, but I am not afraid to call out someone who is wronging a friend or someone I know (I tend to not get into arguments that are "none of my business" or ones I don't have enough facts to argue effectively).

I had a run in with Mike because of this one time in the shout box. He and Missa got into a short argument, over something I don't recall. After Missa left Mike said something derogatory about her (again I don't remember, it's in the shoutbox history) and I called him out on it. We argued for a good bit, and in the end it led to a post by Mike that Missa took the wrong way and completely blew up. I don't believe Mike meant any harm by it, but I can see how Missa could construe it how she did. (The post he made was rather bold no matter how you look at it).
Is that why I never see Missa around anymore? That really sucks if so. :(

If I had known this many pcengine-fx.com people were going, I would have sent more NEC stuff. :( There's always next year I guess!

You can offer your games at whatever you want really. I don't think it's gonna harm anyone here directly. But if you're intent on selling them, then you might want to do a bit of research on the games you have. The site Sensei listed is a pretty invaluable resource for prices (I don't think you'll find anyone remotely close for American games on the internet). As the co-owner of a video game store I have to do this kind of research a lot myself. From my experience, it really pays off to do so.

It looks like you're cool with not selling your stuff though so just do whatever you want I guess. Like I said it's your stuff and it's up to you. I can't imagine you like getting that eBay fee though...

Hey guys. My name is Alex and I run the store with Sensei/Kevin. Thanks for the good feedback and compliments to the store. :) We're a young business with a lot to learn and still trying to get our feet under us between our day job of teaching English and this (Hopefully within the next few years we can make this our day job!). It really makes me glad to see we could make some of you happy.

As for our suppliers, yeah, it's taken us a fair while to sort through which ones are good and which ones are questionable. On our weekends a lot we travel around to different game stores and build our contacts with them to increase our network so it's an ever building work. That's good  because more suppliers means lower prices for you guys. :)

Anyway, I just wanted to thank all of you for helping us through our sort of infancy stage as we slowly but surely expand our business. There's a great community here and I'm happy we can help in some way.
