and a FCL Raymond from another vendor in Japan who has it already in hand and ready to ship. Which means no waiting for a new season preorder to come around. And since I paid less than U.S. retail ($1200) I should be able to get my money back reselling it should I choose to.

Truly it will be a heroic battle should our friend decide to try and return items obtained by proxy.

That FCL tag doesn't look like a 40 to me. ?Store pics I know I know. Hope things work out this time around.
