    Did someone mention needing ejection seat triangle and cockpit skull decals? :D I'm open to doing another run of my DX valk supplemental set.

    Have a set from the last run (think it was the last one) and they are great. Thanks for making them available again.

    Interesting.  My NNG Roy came in at $225 unit price.  No word on shipping as far as the order status.  I did open a ticket and I did get a response.  They told me their stock delivery was a bit late due to COVID, but that they expect to ship next week as soon as they can get to it. 

     

    We may have been of the same batch (paid $225 as well) got my email from them around 11:30 east coast time. Its already tracking in FedEx app.

    Damn i guess i won't get mine either. It was the only set i had ordered. I guess they don't always come through like someone on these boards like to say.

    I was in the first batch of orders. Did the people in the second batch of orders get theirs? If so that is some BS.

    I had an order from the 1st and 2nd batch and got neither. I'm guessing there's a chance someone from the 2nd batch got there's but I would think that was more likely due to how badly NY operates. In the chaos they skipped over some 1st batch orders and/or as someone else mentioned - NY  were giving priority to orders that were in smaller quantities/fastest shipping method and not fulfilling orders chronologically.

    I came to the conclusion a few weeks ago that they grossly over extended themselves on this one and I would never get my orders.

    How long ago did you place your order? I want to do the same but it's been over a year ago that I preordered a VF-1S and Super/Strike part set. 

    I had 2 orders pending one from late last year and one from early this year. Both were within a year though so I didn't have an issue with AMEX / PayPal to get my refunds. I'm pretty sure most if not all of my comments were in reference to the latter of the two transactions through PP.  Being that yours has been more than a year you may not have the recourse of going straight to the CC issuer.

    I am a borderline anti NY zealot who preaches to anyone who will listen to not shop there. Their business practices are horrendous. When taking the 30,000ft view I don't know how anyone can give them their money.

     

    Amen to that! :) (me being anti NY)

     

    To stay on topic. My Kaz arrived at my freight forwarded. I'm guessing it wont ship till to the US till mid/end of the week. :(

    I paid the ransom now it says they are processing my order. I hope that’s not just a new stage of purgatory.

    edit: your order is currently in transit!

    Good to hear it got resolved.

     

    I finally got a response a couple of days ago to my request to change shipping method after about 2 weeks of waiting. It's now been a couple of days since the change but it hasn't shipped yet. Since this is a "nice to have" not a "must have" for me I've pretty much decided that if they don't ship out by the 30th I'll file a claim with CC and with that end my relationship with NY.

    NY store credit: good anywhere, anytime in our webshop!*

     

    *Excludes preorders, shipping, items not matching the exact yen amount of the store credit, items actually worth purchasing, orders made via mobile device, orders made via desktop, and days of the week ending in Y.

     

  8. Still waiting to hear back on my ticket sent 11 days ago. Just sent another one. I'm hoping to get this one item resolved (shipped) so I can be done with NY.  I've pretty much decided I won't be ordering from them anymore and didn't even bothered checking them during the recent Roy rush. Fortunately this is my only pending order with them and the 4th for the same item. The other 3 were spread out through other vendors that have already delivered so if I don't get a response to this new ticket I'm just going to dispute with my CC.

     

  9. It's been a few months since I've used FJ but I recall there billing being a little confusing due to how they itemize there bill, where the do 2 charges - 1st for the item itself and then a 2nd for all their fees+domestic shipping costs+Etc. They add those two sums to the cost to ship internationally. When you do the estimate it doesn't account for those costs in the 2nd charge, or at least I don't remember it doing so.

    So, i decided to just DIY it. No point to crying about it. I just wish I had a white plate instead of grey. Anyway, it works. better than before. ;)

     

    Awesome - Glad it worked out.

    So, after all the hype on the PO, i decided to go unbox my new VF1S Hikaru. To my suprise, this happens. So, who should I contact and get the part replacement? Please advice and thank you. Deng, what a day.

    Although securing a replacement part might be difficult / impossible if you had a caliper to take measurements it be very easy to model and 3D print a replacement. It may take a couple of trials to get the angle/slope of the back facing of the leg but there's things you can do to mitigate. Biggest issue I see would be getting the print material to match the color of the rest of the plastic but at least it would be functional. You would have to basically eye a white paint mixture that matched, unless someone has already figured the right paint brand/mix ratios to get a match,

    Nobody actually got one for THIS price right? That was just them messing with us right?

     

     

    Don't think so. More likely some people got in on the $180's
