Never had a problem with Code 3. Always friendly. Would like to make a suggestion for the future. I like I guess amny of us who enjoy Code 3 do, work during the day and at the time the Monthly Releases come out. I can sometimes sneak away and get in to order but would like to encourage a "set order" option for Club Members. It would automatically hold up to (x) number of product for 72 hours for that member. If the member doesn't like a piece (like that happens). They can message and opt out of the order otherwise they have that piece reserved and don't miss out.

The only problem I had was back when the Cedar Hill ladder was released. Mine was missing a headlight, and I called in. I was told someone would call back, but no one did. I called again, and was sent a new ladder immediately.

Well my last dealings with them was when I purchased Ten Truck dp and everything went fine. Have no purchased nothing since then.

Will we ever see the return of knowledgeable, human, C3 employees to Customer Service, or will the present "outsourced" system remain? I haven't bought directly from C3 in three years, this being one of a number of problems (dead horse). Is a "home grown" Customer Service Department one of the things which most Members would like to see?
One-One-Oh to Brooklyn K ... Communications is a strong selling point

I agree with ffmartin. I haven't had many questions but the ones I have had either never got answered or were answered weeks later

Brother Kennith hit the nail on the head with the "home grown" comment. You have to be able to talk to someone that knows what's going on.

I had only one problem with FDNY Engine 1. One marking the "1" was missing on the right side and the Engine was sold out very quick.
A friend of mine told me that makes this model special.
All other dealings went well. Thank you!
Anyway, code 3 has the best rescue die cast models in world and I hope there doing it tomorrow.

We will likely never see a return to the "good ole days" of Code 3 customer care, where you called, spoke to someone who's name you knew and they fixed any and all problems in a matter of seconds. They're part of a big global conglomerate now, faceless, uncaring and impossible to get a hold of.
Dealers are the way to go.
As for me, short of the missing FDNY on my Squad 61, have never had to send back a model, never had a problem with a truck, and my satisfaction level is quite high to be honest with you.
