Macrossmerrell Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I managed to snag one after 100 failed attempts to get to / through the checkout process @ Amiami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loop Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Looks like the one I thought errored out on CDJ also went through. I guess I have 2 of this one now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrentonx Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) Yeah, Amiami is weird. It failed my login like fifteen times before it let me check out a different item. Edited July 1, 2015 by xrentonx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neoexcaliber Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 hlj is up, but no Hi-Metal R Hikaru-1S on general search. Anybody got their secure link for it?

Saburo Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Got one from Ami Ami... I feel something is wrong... I have never been able to get a PO with them. Oh well, it was good to be in the not-so-madness. Good luck everyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 just a partial madness. maybe the scalpers got internet issues to have made ami's po last longer than usual... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunn Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I'm not trying to scare you... but really... IT IS. Good luck preodering one on the less than 5 second window that they offer. Oh... and be careful too on those so-called 'cartjackers'. Now I'm pretty sure you know how ugly it can get during PO nights. What a harrowing experience. Since I've just started collecting I've been lucky in that all my PO's were for mechs that collectors already have or do not want, so they were easily obtained. But this was ridiculous. Staying up till 3am (PST) hitting refresh, hoping to get to the next page of the order form, then watching in horror as something screws up and you're back at square one but now it's all sold out. All that in a span of a couple minutes. I don't know how you guys do it for so many new releases... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F360 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 The scalpers went for the MB Freedom, it sold out faster at hobbysearch then even Amiami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoexcaliber Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 The scalpers went for the MB Freedom, it sold out faster at hobbysearch then even Amiami.

aaajin Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 wasnt able to order the first time Ami2 had it up, then crashed, F5-spam, checked MW, someone posted its back on, went to site, F5 spam, got one, log-in was slow, finally logged in and placed the order.

aaajin Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 (edited) Not sure to call them scalpers or not, but for sure they arent much marked up than MSRP + shipping from Japan. Prolly $18-$20 higher than what we all scored here.

Old Man Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Has anyone had problems with cdjapan? They said my card was declined for some reason, so they will attempt again. Is my order still secure until then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F360 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Has anyone had problems with cdjapan? They said my card was declined for some reason, so they will attempt again. Is my order still secure until then? It should be, I was declined for my first CC order too, it's because it's a international transaction. But when they run it again the next day , it went fine. just look up your order status in a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Has anyone had problems with cdjapan? They said my card was declined for some reason, so they will attempt again. Is my order still secure until then? Possible that your card's fraud-alert got triggered somehow. Better call your card's cs to clear it up.

aaajin Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Well it looks like there will not be a pre-order for hlj. what's up with that? are they "punishing" us for abusing their secured link during the VF-19 preorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treatment Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 what's up with that? are they "punishing" us for abusing their secured link during the VF-19 preorder? lol!
