Garou Kuroryuu Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 Anyone else order from Amazon Japan? I did. I wouldn't expect any problems either. Good thing those region-free dvd players exist.
Sdf-1 Posted December 12, 2007 Posted December 12, 2007 Anyone else order from Amazon Japan? I did too. What I hear it's no problem to here at least.
Keith Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Only problems I've heard from using Amazon Japan come from them shipping through DHL, and DHL dancing on the boxes.
Kicker773 Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 preordered mine.. hopefully when i get an lcd hdtv i can order the rest of those dvds..
marsbiker22 Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 What is the ISBN number for the 3-disk version...I want to try ordering it from a local import book/dvd store. Thanks in advance.
Pat Payne Posted December 14, 2007 Posted December 14, 2007 The limited edition's just showed up on the US Amazon -- it doesn't look like you can order it direct from Amazon just yet ("currently unavailable"), they may be pre-emptively listing it for expected resellers, or maybe after its release in Japan, some copies will be shifted to international sales, but either way... http://www.amazon.com/Super-Dimension-Fort...751&sr=1-49 (I'm still pre-ordering with CDJapan, though )
Keith Posted December 15, 2007 Posted December 15, 2007 That's odd, how often to pre-release listings for R2 DVD's pop up on amazon u.s.?
GGemini Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 Anyone else order from Amazon Japan? I did. I live in Singapore and I've had no problems with Amazon JP so far. The only "issue" I had once was with the local authority because they had to review a DVD I ordered: there's a list of movies that are allowed to be brought into Singapore. If your movie is not on the list, it needs to be reviewed for rating and censorship purposes, but that's it. DYRL is in the "allowed" list (with a note that says "CONTAINS NUDITY" of course)
Zinjo Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Considering how much of a HUGE difference the remastering made with the Mac Plus discs, the DYRL release should be pretty amazing!!
jet660 Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 here is the cdjapan ad for dyrl?: the memorial box: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCBA-3170 Regular edition: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCBA-3171 Flashback 2012: http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=BCBA-3229 btw I order mine at cdjapan: heafty cost using EMS
bandit29 Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Being prepared to be shipped. AmazonJP says delv est 12/24/07..hmm
Keith Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Mine's getting ready to leave from CDJapan too...should definately have it before christmas!
Kicker773 Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 how would you know if it has already shipped if the release date is 12/21/07? mine still hasn't shipped and i ordered it from cdjapan. So i'm must wondering...is there something that i'm missing...
Keith Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Check your e-mail. I just got an update from them notifying me of a change in the pre-order shipping charge. Basically, instead of $92, it shot up to $125. They sent me an e-mail asking if I agreed to the price change, so likely it's the same in your case.
ly000001 Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 (edited) Check your e-mail. I just got an update from them notifying me of a change in the pre-order shipping charge. Basically, instead of $92, it shot up to $125. They sent me an e-mail asking if I agreed to the price change, so likely it's the same in your case. I got my e-mail yesterday, but it was a shipping confirmation. I think if you placed your order before they changed their international shipping options (i.e. eliminated their economy shipping option) and didn't choose the faster, more expensive one, you'll get a notice about the change in shipping charges. edit: Sorry, Keith, I thought you ordered from Amazon JP (like me) and not CD Japan, so please disregard.

treatment Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 just an fyi. Somebody at AOD-forum already posted a couple of comparo-snapshots: http://www.animeondvd.com/forum/showpost.php?pid/595563/ I'll post mine as soon as my order arrives (next week, most likely).

They sent me the e-mail showing that mine has shipped today (or, since Japan's over the Date Line, is that yesterday -- or tomorrow? ) and shipping for EMS shipping is still somewhere in the neighborhood of $64 (depending on whatever the exchange rate ends up being when the charge processes). I can't wait to get my 4 pounds of Macross goodness
Keith Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Bah, mine hasn't shipped yet...I'm so impatient!

Wow-- that remastered version looks so good! Will the remaster disc be OK to play on a normal TV, or would it just come out looking crappy?
Hurin Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 I just got my CDJapan ship notification. And then it was followed up by a 500y coupon.
Kicker773 Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 i think i know why some of you are already getting the notice.. the The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love? HD Remastered Edition is already in stock, while the The Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Do You Remember Love? HD Remastered Edition Memorial Box [Limited Edition] still isn't in, which has a street date of the 21st. SO tomorrow perhaps..
Wurz Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Mines the Limited Edition one. And I already got the notice from CDJapan....
Hurin Posted December 20, 2007 Posted December 20, 2007 Good theory, but I actually got my email for the Limited Edition. So, it's just luck of the draw (or first come first serve?).
Save Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 I just checked the shop downstairs and they had it on the racks! Has got to be one of the best dvd sets for that price. Going back after lunch to pick mine up, after I drop by the atm. The standard version is 7000 yen who in their right mind would get that over the LE version with all the extras.
crasis Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 Just got my shipping notice from Amazon.jp for the limited version! The total with shipping included was around $82. I can't wait for this to arrive!
Ishimaru Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 If anyone gets any extra limited edition copies let me know if your going to sell it!

That's weird b/c I just got the e-mail and there wasn't ANY notice of a price increase. According to Japan Amazon it shipped on the 21st through Fedex International Priority. It'd due to arrive on the 24th.
Oihan Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) Nevermind...I figured out my problem. Edited December 21, 2007 by Oihan

If they're still charging you the cheaper pre-order price, I'm writing back (after it arrives) and getting a re-inbursement!

Keith Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) Hmm, maybe that's why, mine's through EMS, don't remember a FedEX option. I forget, are you usuing Amazon or CDJapan? Edited December 21, 2007 by Keith
Kicker773 Posted December 21, 2007 Posted December 21, 2007 my total through CDjapan via EMS is: 16,220yen still haven't gotten any notice from them =(
