    Pre order items mean that a customer is ordering an item before it has been manufactured.   This is quite common for special figures.  If the manufacturer has any issues during the development or production, we do our best to reach out and let the customer know of any delays.  Those were the emails mentioned by the customer.   There has not been any response from this customer to our customer service.  We don't see anything from this email address.  However, our team is reaching out to her via email to see if she wants to cancel her order.  We will fully refund her as soon as she confirms.

    The best way to get help from any company is to simply reach out to them.  We are happy to help.

    This amount has been refunded already, but I do see that the customer was correct and there was a delay in the refund.   We are fixing the process to avoid delays in the future for other customers.  This specific customer should be refunded already.  If they have any other issues, they can respond to the agents that replied with the refund and we will take care of it for them.

    I placed an order with their online store that has not shipped after going on three weeks. When I contact customer service I am told each time that they have an influx of orders right now and need another eight days. However I continue to receive emails advertising the sale even to this day. At this point I don't believe I will be receiving my order. I have even tried to email and their online chat option only to be told they won't get back to me for another week.

    Thank you for reaching out.   We had a large influx of orders on a liquidation sale.  Unfortunately the warehouse service could not keep up.   We got more help and the orders are shipping out.   None will be missed and everyone will get their products.  I checked the specific order mentioned here, and I'm happy to share that it has already been picked and shipped. The customer should have their order soon if they don't already have it.

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you for providing the correct information.  In the email correspondence to our customer service, it appears that there was a typo in the key information provided to us.  Once that information was corrected, the issue was resolved.  If there is anything else this customer needs, they can reach out to agent that is already helping them.

    Thank you so much for expressing your desire for more dubs.   That means we are on the right track.  While I can't share specific details here on what projects are being worked on or what order they are released, we are mostly definitely working to post even more dubs (and subs).  We are constantly adding more and we know we are not done.  Crunchyroll is is getting even better every day.  We want to be able to provide you the best place to see and enjoy all the shows you are looking for.
