Duymon Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 This is just sick that NY can secure that much locally. The Japanese Mac Fans must be pissed they can't get valks anywhere lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk-1S Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 We shouldn't really complaint about NY. They are providing a service to people outside of Japan to be able to purchase items without too much trouble compare to other places where you need to use proxies or use a forwarding agent. It's already good that NY do not expect a deposit or prepayment. Just think of how many cancellations they probably got from people who finally managed to secure one at RRP from places like HLJ for the VF-171 and RVF-25. Just imaging that if NY did not exists, many of us will be trying to figure out how to purchase these items and some of us will be reluctant to use forwarding agents or proxies.

zzgundam010 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Yeah, they're starting to hit that spot... we are approaching VF-4G price terrority here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 ^ Agreed, to some getting the item means more than the money spent to get it. If you got deep enough pockets, I say go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptormesh Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) I'm genuinely surprised there's so much demand for this valk. Maybe people are just pre-ordering as a back up in case they can't get it cheaper anywhere else. Edited May 10, 2013 by raptormesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loop Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 It will most likely be cheaper on release day. If I decide to get another, I may wait until then unless better options appear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrentonx Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I was originally one of their bigger detractors. Not gonna lie! Then I gave it some thought and I came around. Still doesn't mean that I won't hit up hlj or Amiami first though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valk-1S Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Is NY toying with us by opening and closing the per-order??? They are probably confirming stock with who they get it from and releasing in batches as they go I guess. Sometimes their preorders can close for quite a while to open later down the track again.

Loop Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 It's currently at what 39.60 over MSRP. You are failing to consider that they just sold over 100 units in an hour.

Still doesn't mean that I won't hit up hlj or Amiami first though Of course, I would always choose the lower price if the dealer is reputable. If for some reason I miss it else where, then I try to get in on the early rounds of NY if possible. Some balk at MSRP though, I saw someone complain in the VF-25 Renewal thread that the price was too high @ MSRP. I think it's because of the Amiami price that is almost impossible to get for most. Also it turns out that they list them at Rakuten at the same time. So you are fighting for one pool of orders at 2 sites.

SaitouSad Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 people still on the fence for this really should besr in mind that it's currently at 4000 yen mark up, and it comes with the super parts.I shudder to imagine if this thing will end up going for double once they're done with this round of reissues.Also.. I worry for the day the VF-25S goes up..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptormesh Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I'm worried about the YF-30 myself if it's made. Maybe that wouldn't be so popular with Japanese fans, one can only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need one more and I will be happy. I'm worried about the YF-30 myself if it's made. Maybe that wouldn't be so popular with Japanese fans, one can only hope.

I'll need 2 or 3 pieces (you know.. armor / super set up and whatnot).
