woahhh i dont know how i missed it the first time. XD wow the 2nd batch is like almost 4-5 months later. -=X

I really can't say which one was worse... the VF-1A Max or the VF-1S DYRL Hikaru. I luckily got one of each through HLJ but with the long agonizing 20+ min spinning checkout process. Yet with the VF-1A Max on AmiAmi I wasn't able to get the page to load and it went straight to sold out. IIRC Amiami did have a 2nd window that night just like how the VF-1S did last night. For me, during the initial opening and after refreshing the page because it wouldn't take the update when I clicked on "Add to cart". I was eventually able to add the VF-1S to my cart and got as far as submitting payment and then it crapped out on me after 35+ mins of sitting on the checkout process. I completely missed the 2nd window at Amiami though.

Submitted payment at HLJ and it went straight to empty cart page, no confirmation what so ever. Checked my email and according to HLJ's system they sent me an order acknowledgement. I'm feeling extremely anxious right now and not sure if the email is good or will I catch an email of cancellation shortage in the next few days. Okay it's under my order history under my account. Cart jacked at HS. Stalled at AmiAmi for 35 mins to only fail. No dice with CDJ, AE site crashed went to sold out, and hung on HLJ's checkout process forever.

I apologize and excuse my ignorance. I was unaware that such an article was written to bring light about such an issue. (Even if I were from China) I wouldn't think it would even be worth the hassle to make such a trip to Japan to stand outside a business before it even opens to procure said items only to bring it back and have it shipped out. Maybe if I made a "vacation" trip there and figured why not buy some and bring it back. Then that would be a one off situation, but if multiple people thought like that then yes it can be a problem. That's just flaw in the system. If someone did this as a business incentive even with a store limit would then cause the scalper to look for other stores/sources. And if most stores open around similar times then the chances of being to get to them all earlier would be intense. I'm sure the smarter ones would just find a way to third party or boot leg them instead. One individual wouldn't be as successful. You can't be in multiple places at once. I guess the only way for foreign scalpers to return a decent profit they would have to band together as a group so they can attempt to buyout multiple locations. I still don't think that is even worth the effort because then it involves with splitting the profit with others. Some may be successful while others may come up empty handed. I'm from NYC and I'm in the neighborhood of Supreme. I see sneaker heads standing outside of the business (and others) just to return a profit. A good number of times there's police presence just to make sure things don't get out of hand (which there's been plenty instances). Its not worth the headache.

That's kind of ignorant to say that bandai is doing that just to deter Chinese scalpers. Scalpers exist in every country. It's a lifestyle to them and not solely based on race.

I checked and neither one is my customer ID. I also got two emails from HLJ now. The first is an "order acknowledgement" and the second email is an "order confirmation" (after it appeared on my recent orders on their site).
-
Right now I'm completely unsure of how HLJ handles their order numbers. On the confirmation screen following submitting my order I was given 000149388, but on the order number under my account shows 15095377. ????
-
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.
-
I got an email order acknowledgement from HLJ, but we'll wait an see...
-
Yea I have a feeling the hlj email cancellation will ensue the following days.
-
CDJ out too
-
16 LOL... still give NY the bird. IIRC their ticketing system kicks in everytime you move from product to product or homepage to product. GL with searching on their site... hits waiting list. LOL
-
LOL I give NY the bird.
-
Yes you're right it was for the YF-19 DX Full set. I just checked my emails and found one email from HLJ that was received about 5am Eastern US April 27th 2018 (which would have been about 6pm Japan time).
-
That one time I think you're recalling wasn't for 2pm Japan time but it was actually to order an item at a later time. For whatever reason all the sites pushed back the order time from 4pm japan to 6 or 7pm japan that one time. I can't exactly recall which item it was for but I recall staying up till 5am/6am EST US (instead of the usual 3am) to place an order that one time.
-
The armor set has specific shoulder colors.
-
LOL at both. XD
-
Geez @no3Ljm... the subtle references, lol.
-
I was going to say... "wait a sec... a kitchen? that looks like an elevator bank". Denial is the first step you know! I'm jking.. XD

Yea... I've usually been pretty good about opening even for inspection, but I've realized I've fallen off pretty heavily with doing so for the last year. I guess I've been a bit preoccupied with other things and I know the fanboy on me is like "openitopenitopenit". I guess it also has to do with living in NYC and the lack of space. I'm afraid just to leave things out on my desk just for the night (in the event of me being too lazy or tired to put then back in the box after said swooshing) and it gets damaged by some uneventful force. To be fair I made sure to inspect the four yf-19s I got earlier last year... for broken head lasers and all, lol.
-
Don't worry you're not the only one. I have three that I haven't opened because I have no room either... lol.
-
@slide... looks like that one just go a wash or caught some rain. XD Definitely would require a bit of work for a 'damp'/wet effect.
-
I'm not exactly sure, but also on the page it does state that they reserve the right to stop taking orders once they feel they've filled enough orders.
-
OOOOOOO you just gave me an idea! The armored packs with the little* Drakens on the tips of those loopy things!!! One for each!!! x4 I guess? XD Now that would be over the top over the top* lololol. and edit... sorry i meant the lil drakens, but sure why not draken IIIs? XD
-
yea I figured the service and shipping fees were not included yet (since the packaging will probably be a decent size).
