neoexcaliber Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) What happened with that release? PO lasted more than an hour and there wasn't any per customer limit set. Needless to say, a few dozen if not hundreds of orders did not get fulfilled. no worries, it's nothing like that. People can not place their order because it gets stuck at signing in, then get stuck at payment, then at confirmation. so they do have to stock , just not the sale yet. Similar thing happened with the YF-29 Alto reissue recently so I'm skeptical. Edited August 1, 2016 by neoexcaliber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guyffon Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 And some buy to sell at a higher price, these people are the problem, if they were real collectors, then fine, but to profit off others, what kind of human beings are they Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shukenzero Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 There are so many scalpers competing with real collectors. This hobby has become a war zone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope bandai does does another release of the VF-25 line. I wasn't able to afford them in the past but I now can. Bandai doesn't benefit from scalpers so do they not want our money?

Lorindor Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Yikes, I never got to the order complete page on HLJ, but I just noticed that I still got an order confirmation email. Sweet. But I will try to snag a slightly marked up one at EU-friendly NY, as it will still be cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guyffon Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Maybe some vigilante should go around teaching these scalpers a lesson, one can only hope Bandai, doesn't care if collectors get them as long as they sell out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can camp in Mandarake come release. You might get it with only 2000-4000Y increase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orindlt Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 ZOMG. Kept getting timeouts at HLJ with a valk in the cart. Kept rocking back and forward, back and forward. HLJ goes order stopped. Just kept rocking the browser back each time I got a timeout. And success. With the email and everything. Now I just have to go and tell my 13 year old son that I forfeited his soul for a cool plastic robot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 (edited) HLJ said that they accepted my order but I don't have an e-mail confirmation and it's not processed in my warehouse either.

orindlt Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 Same here, even after the order stop since it was still in my cart I was able to complete my order almost an hour later, NICE So in my HLJ account it has "order stopped" next to the valk in the list of open orders. All other open orders have a date next to them for when the release occurs. I got the confirmation email - does that mean I'm waitlisted, or is it just an oddity of HLJ's system?

Not sure, I am still waiting on my confirmation order, so I'd say your ahead of the line. Never had this happen to me before. Normally you get it in the first few seconds or you don't. Will have to see what hlj staff says in the next couple of days. If you don't get any kind of correspondence your good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden Arms Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 You should be good. I actually had 2 in my account from hlj so I cancelled one to keep within their preorder policy. I was also able to order the blue frame from hlj as well. it was stuck in my cart for nearly 40 minutes but after I cancelled one of the DX in my account I was able to complete my order of the blue frame. successful morning!!
