Finally. Guess I gotta pay it all up front with a money order. There's no way I'm having my credit card info stolen again.

They won't allow money order payments for the subscription.

From the email:

7. The cost is $294 if Paid In Full (plus shipping) or three Installments of $98 (plus shipping). Please note that there is a $3 online processing fee for each billing. We take Visa, Discover or MasterCard. Unfortunately we cannot accept Money Orders or Checks for this offer.

The way it sounds is you have to use a card for payment if you choose the 3 installments. Obviously they need your card to auto charge the payments. But I see no reason you couldn't pay up front with a money order. At least that's the way I interpreted it. Hopefully they'll clear it up a little. If they only accept credit cards then they're really screwing themselves. There's a lot of people who refuse to give the Club any more credit card info for them to keep on file.

Interesting that you would interpret it that way. I went back and read it again. I can kind of see where you might read it like that. But I don't really agree with it. I'm reading it as "Here's how much you need to give us" and "Here's how you give it to us". Although, either way it seems like it really should say "Here's how we're giving it to you" if you know what I mean.

They probably don't want MO payments because shipping wasn't figured into their total. Even if the figures are paid for upfront, the club still has to bill buyers for shipping every month. Could they accept MOs for shipping every month too? Yeah, but this is the club were talking about - they're not exactly rocket surgeons, they'd meff it up.

BTW, because the lowest cost shipping method offered by the club is Priority Mail, I expect shipping to be around $110.00 - $120.00 when all is said and done. Sheesh...

what a bunch of crap.$close to $300.00 for this service or make installments of close to $100.00 this utter crap and kind of takes the fun and joy of the gi joe experience don't ya think ?

First, ouch, don't say that. It makes me cry.

Second, are you sure? You're right about Priority. But when I added the Outback/Night Viper set(being a carded two pack seemed close) I'm getting $11.05 to ship. Times that by the 6 shipments(they're coming 2 a month) gets you $66.30.

Either way, I didn't think about adding that into it. I'm really getting unsure about playing these games with the Club any more.

Hasbro already did that a while back, starting with SDCC 07.
