mog_kupo Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Its kinda weird, the release date moved to today, yet NY gives me until June 2 to make the payment, does that mean they will be gettin their stock a little late? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanedas Bike Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 So...uh...does anyone have an extra copy of the Premium Finish Hikaru from HLJ that they want to part ways with? -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly completed the PO at NY because of their strongly worded email threatening to cancel all future POs and close my account if I didn't pay for the VF-1S lol Will post something in the for sale thread at a non-scalper price (scalpers can go straight to h3ll) if I decide to part with it.

Huh? Are you guys talking about the actual "Release-Date" of the Hikky1S-Premium, or simply just your "Nippon-Yasan Payment-Request Date"?

NY sent an email indicating the actual Release Date for the product change from 05/31 to 05/26 and to pay for your PO by 06/01 or else It's a little silly because it takes them forever to process payment and ship anyway. My VF-31J super parts haven't even shipped yet and I paid for them in January like everyone else haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanedas Bike Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Well it's been Discontinued at HLJ since at least 8:30 Eastern. And it was at Order Stop since 3:30/4 AM when I went to sleep. Hoping and praying it comes back up, otherwise I'm relying on a good samaritan to sell me one. lol -b. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sf648 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Sadly I'm in the same boat. I had been waiting patiently for the HLJ listing to leave "order stop", but I must have missed it by going to sleep sleep at 5:30a this morning... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, same here. Only thing is I knew there was a way to not use paypal conversion and it took me years to get it to work. Lost several valks worth of fees...

Lolicon Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Paid for mine. Because of Paypal's shenanigans, I don't use anything automatic with them, and now I always check the conversion rate before paying because of Paypal's propensity to "accidentally" change it to their terrible conversion rate just so they can skim money off the top.

eggy99 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 A word of warning that I checked my currency conversion options on my Paypal again this week, and it had reverted back to Paypal conversion rate, so I promptly closed the merchant agreement with HLJ and will do all my payments manually now. I doubt Paypal will ever fix this as it is as everyone suspects. It's a NEW feature that Paypal has instituted to skim money off the top of all their users and claim ignorance of the issue.

anubis20 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 Yea paypal is dirty. I have two paypal accounts, one where I keep most of my balance and one where i keep all my credit cards. I paypaled myself ¥10000 and $92.40 left one account but on my other account the balance said ¥10,000 ($86.27) so they dont even honor their own damn exchange rate on the same day.

It just is not there at all. The pp-rep I talked to cannot tell me a definitive answer other than it somehow shows up if you linked a debit-card (or a mastercard cc) instead of a non-mastercard cc. The old trick of using their old legacy site also does not work in showing it anymore. Their mobile-site seems to be the only one that still shows the option.
