Look, I don't get why when everyone complains about GB deadlines, no one proposes an efficient and optimized solution to it. Everyone already is dealing with the same issues as you. Complaining about a problem doesn't help fix the issue. At this point, quit complaining about it on the internet and do something to fix it. Propose a solution that would hold manufacturers and GB runners accountable or something. I would love to have someone prove me wrong and fix this group buy deadline issue because at this point it doesn't seem likely that people will. Literally complaining about them doesn't do anything.

First of all I did propose a solution :)
Second of all, it's not up to me to fix it. Runners or companies that create group buys should. I am already paying money for somebody to figure it out for me. If I want to give money and solutions, I will be better off making my own creation for myself only.

While I understand your frustration, "picking them better" is just not a good solution. Until there are manufacturers with better QC and a passable overall product, we are stuck. Runners and/or companies that you speak of are not the problem here.

See this is what most confuses me. What should you propose that runners or companies do as a decision making standpoint that offers a scaleable option to improve the timeline of meeting deadlines while also maintaining the same level of quality and service? Proposing the idea that they should just “work harder” to meet the deadlines is not a solution, it is just complaining about the issue. Let’s say you were doing this as a GB runner or manufacturer, what would you do to improve your production level to meet client’s deadlines and expectations? You say yourself “no GB host knows what he/she is doing and we should pick them better”. Going by that logic, if no one knows what they are doing, well, what would you tell them so that they understand what they should do to meet deadlines? Again, prove me wrong by drawing up a scalable solution that companies can implement so that all companies can meet the deadlines they set.
