I ordered the Komi nendoroid about a year ago and never received it. Now I have no way of filing for the money back because the website is offline.

First experience of pre-order

This was my first time pre-ordering figures and everything went smoothly. Sure, each figure came later than was expected, but that's just how it be sometimes.
Figures are nice quality, detailed well, and the colloring just hits the spot. I contacted their support services once to ask when the figures will be comming and they replied pretty quickly. All in all very pleased with Otakusquare.

The figurine came relatively quick for shipping from overseas and was in excellent condition. No complaints from me, since one month from order to delivery is actually pretty quick for the figurine industry. Just be aware that if you order from Otaku Store it will take a week or two for the order to ship because of the way they're currently set up.

Not the best but worth buying from.

Poor communication, but they deliver.

Got my figure in the mail

Got my figure in the mail, box was damaged on the corner, but other than that, I would HIGHLY recommend this store. Definitely will be ordering from this place more often.

First Purchase

Pre-ordered an item and was pleased to find out it had been shipped out without much delay despite the COVID-19 situation.
Only real downside is that they only accept full upfront payment (no deposits).

Great first time experience!

I preordered a figure I had missed on other sites, this was my first time to use OtakuSquare. I'm in the US and amid the preorder verbage of the figure and the current effects of COVID, I wasn't sure I would get it! They answered my questions promptly and my figure arrived in a timely manner, totally undamaged! It was perfect and my favourite addition to my desk!

I received the wrong item

I received the wrong item, I am trying to contact them by phone daily but no one answer. I wrote two emails and never received an answer. Just an automatic reply saying that they are busy. It's already one week since I received the wrong item and still no one is taking care of this and is giving me instructions about how to return it and get back my money or receive what I have paid for.

Figure damage, no response

UPDATE 27 NOV: I still have not received the replacement. I have not heard anything concerning the status of this replacement since. Any attempts to call have resulted in drops, hang-up's, or no information. I have waited over 2 months with a broken figure and have exhausted all support avenues.

The support ticket is 2714.

I just want this issue to be resolved already...please...

—————
UPDATE 29 October: Otaku Square has reached out and offered a replacement. While it did take much longer than I expected, I commend them for responding and making amendments based on customer feedback. I do hope their support system will improve.

—————
A figure order arrived on 11 September and it came with a broken piece. Submitted a ticket on the same day (#2597) and had not heard back since. I've tried to follow up on the 19th (#2625) but still have not heard back from Otaku Square.

Chatting their Facebook page gives me an automated message, and trying to reach their number through WhatsApp (I cannot call directly due to international rates) gives me no answer.

Hello Daniel,

We are sorry to hear that you haven't gotten a response from us yet.

Unfortunately our WhatsApp number is not monitored for voice calls, since it can not be connected to our VoIP systems. We are however notified when it's called, and I see that an agent has tried to follow up but was unable to get a hold of you.

We will be reaching out through e-mail as soon as possible.

Best regards,

Otaku Square

No shipment

No shipment, no feedback, no contact, no money.
I placed an order on Sept 3, ETA - Sept 17. Since then I sent two emails without response ("ticket received" - and nothing happens), and could not reach the seller over FB or WhatsApp. That's all very strange.
Update: got a voice call, refund was promised, still waiting for it.
Update 2: refund just received.
