I know. I was able to get an order in at HLJ, but I'm nervous that it will get canceled Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He just asked his wife to goto Yamada Denki to preorder the item. Up until now she never knew how much Macross DX stuff costs. He is such a macross fan, he is willing to put his marriage on the line. I will never be so hard-core ouch. I feel his pain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tried several times no luck. This was right after it opened up too. I was trying to checkout with paypal but got a contact our suooort team message, then it was sold out. Don't know if there was a oroblem with my paypal billing agreement Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I never did see it become available, other than that few minutes when Nin-Nin jumped the gun 2 hours early and made ordering available. Oh, and when AmiAmi first opened up. And HLJ. Did not last long at all though. Edited April 8, 2019 by Shizuka the Cat Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe we'll get another chance before release. I still can't believe this is the "system." That Amiami lack of a discount isn't looking so bad now, eh? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PsYcHoDyNaMiX 22 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 (edited) Okay this is insane... the order number after i submitted on hlj was 000149388 and now after it appears under my account its 15095377 ??? How the hell did it jump so many numbers? If I get a cancellation email from HLJ I'm going to tell that guys Mark his site's servers are on some crap! XD EDIT* Oh and it took 20+ minutes to show up under my account after my email confirmation. Edited April 8, 2019 by PsYcHoDyNaMiX Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Roy Focker 210 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Last preorder I made was for the Hi-metal VF-1D. I got my order in on the side of the road from inside my car in the dark with an outdated phone. Here I'm at home with a better computer, better internet and nothing.

Valkyrie23 38 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Anything can happen in the middle of the night (well for those of us in the US). I've seen POs re open like at 2-3am PST at times Quote Link to post Share on other sites

technoblue 171 Posted April 8, 2019 Share Posted April 8, 2019 Man, I fought long and hard for my CDJ order. I clicked the link as soon as I got their email update, and then the madness began when I went to apply points. It was hovering between 2 and 4 pre-order slots left for a while, but now it's officially sold out on the site. Bummer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
