Corrinald Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 (edited) *CRY* Why am I so weak?! Why could I not resist?! Why did I just buy the PF Max and Miria?! I guess it is time to sell my regular versions.,, *sigh* You held off for as long as you could. To be fair, they are awesome VF-1 toys. I never owned the original Yamato versions or regular Arcadia releases so I jumped on the PFs when they came out. The struggle to resist buying too much Macross is real.

kajnrig Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Bumping some threads to let as many interested parties know. HLJ Spring sale. Arcadia Super VF-1J Milia was up there, probably others as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not how online shopping in 2019 should be. How does this work exactly? If I get in and decide to window shop for 30 minutes, do I tie up that connection for that time and no on else can access the site until I leave? I would guess that they need to upgrade their server service so PO night doesn't appear like a DDoS attack on their website. I may need to use NY only for web exclusive stuff only from this point forward. It's taken over 20 minutes to go from 1150ish to 570ish.

Slave IV Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I just pulled the trigger on PF Milia. Didn't want to but I told myself if it ever went down to that price (20,xxxY) I would bite. Now I have to see if I can get a MAx around the same price and consider possibly selling my non PF Milia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. Did it just now. 5 mins before the offer ends. And I don't need this. Keep telling myself that I already have a non-PF Milia. Reasoning is futile.

The eco shipping would be faster and only about 100Y more but no tracking or insurance (which I don’t care about) so I stuck with ferry to save a buck.

Shizuka the Cat Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 (edited) I bought a Max and Miria PF when Hobby Link Japan was having their Macross sale. *sigh* Who would have known that NY would end up being SOOO much cheaper for Miria?

I feel you. There is no Max PF, at least you have a complete PF pair. Hope your salse of the non-PF pair goes well. I will consider if I want to sell my non-PF when the PF arrive in 3 months. 56 minutes ago, Slave IV said: Haha, exact same situation!

Since there is absolutely no urgency in getting this in, so $1 saving is not to be sneezed at. Well, let hope it does not really take 3 months. 7 minutes ago, Bolt said: What to do, what to do..

In my experience, I get most items shipped by ferry and it usually takes between 1-2 months but 3 is not unheard of either. Like you say, no rush at all for me.
