stormshadow0621 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 cdjapan would be my last choice, shipping seems to be extra high for them. 5000 Yen to ship my YF-29. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaitouSad Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Tried Amiami, site froze, managed to click the preorder button, froze, had to go for meeting Come back, and amiami says it's sold out and all the other sites sold out at the same time.. This week just keeps getting worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plastik Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Well I missed out on NY, amiami and cdjapn...... but the good news is I was able to find one on RAKUTEN!!! MWAHAHAHA! Of all the places to look! It's still there guys, have fun! http://item.rakuten.co.jp/e-alamode/amd-2901/?scid=af_pc_etc&sc2id=247567789 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 i missed one @ amiami it's still in my cart but i can't check out... says not enough quantity. i'm just staring at it in my cart. (i never got this far w/ ami ami) it makes it more painful being so close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronocidal Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) Shortly as in 10 minutes, or 10 hours? I have to go to bed at some point. Can't hit F5 forever. Sorry for the double reply, went back and checked the dates. So, the release for the RVF was on March 1st at 4pm. Reading back, NY reopened sales some time on March 3rd, and someone posted a message about it at about 7pm. So, a little shorter than two days. I got mine the following afternoon at 2pm at the first price bump level. Day after that, it hit 190 or so. So, I'd keep an eye out from tomorrow evening through the next two days. And yeah, sorry if turning the images off actually fouled you up... I was fumbling for the right button myself, kind of blindly clicking where I thought they should be. It works wonders with reloading the item page itself, but yeah, the images can speed up the purchase once its in your cart.

(i never got this far w/ ami ami) it makes it more painful being so close. Painful isn't it? Same thing happened on my failed NY order. It's just sitting there in my cart. I had to empty it out because I couldn't stand it sitting there mocking me Edited April 3, 2013 by xrentonx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plastik Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) man I ordered a YF-29 30th from NY right after because I was feeling depressed and now I have 2 great renewals coming my way. it turned out to be a great night! yes I ordered using fromjapan but it was instock at rakuten at the time when i ordered it Edited April 3, 2013 by plastik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duymon Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) crazy, just crazy lol. I like rakuten except for having to pay 100% up front and having to have an address in Japan to send to for most of the stores. Only address we have is my fiance's parents' place and huge boxes + Japanese future-in laws in tiny house = not cool... not cool Edited April 3, 2013 by Duymon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Someone actually saw the "add to cart" button at HLJ? I was refreshing CONSTANTLY---and merely saw the date go from 00/2000 to 07/2013. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrentonx Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Maybe it's a placeholder? You never know with HLJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Hingtgen Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I vote placeholder. No way it was slammed as hard as AmiAmi, to have like no one even SEE it, much less get into cart. Though that does mean I have to keep clicking until I go to bed, sigh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duymon Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Maybe HLJ does it to scare away all the refreshers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 yeah, that's right last time i believe it was a placeholder as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHobo Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 And then HLJ opened orders in like 2 hours after that? I think it was 3am PST for either the focker 29 or the CF 171? I can't remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoexcaliber Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 You know what's funny about HLJ's placeholders? They are updated randomly. Even though the placeholder might be up today, the actual item might not be released up to days or weeks from now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikashoo Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 has ami ami ever re-opened orders on renewals? like if they catch people trying to make multiple orders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
