wmkjr Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I wonder if it's either because of the Golden Week holiday or because of their restructuring to Bandai Spirits incorporating different strategies?

Chronocidal Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Is the YF-19 the only item at 6pm, or did they shift all of them? This might be the gundam rush.

It has in the past, but both this and the MB Strike Gundam are 6pm for some reason. Some speculate it's because of Golden Week next week. 4 minutes ago, spacemanoeuvres said: I always have a hard time with cdj search. Is there a special link or setting like hlj? I dunno, I wondered the same thing. Right now I'm just refreshing the regular search results hoping to see it there. 4 minutes ago, seti88 said: I wonder if N-Y will open even later after 6pm JST, since it normally trails the rest.... I also wondered this. Maybe it's easier on them to do this, keep all the pesky impatient people from crashing their servers. By the by, if you're looking for a 25th Anniversary Yamato YF-19, here's one for cheap-ish: http://www.anime-export.com/product/38260 Edited April 27, 2018 by kajnrig

Chronocidal Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Actually also wouldn't surprise me if this tactic is to throw off the bot purchasers.

orindlt Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 All of the stores doing it at the same time though?
rdrunner Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I swear I saw the DX chogokin YF-19 on NY moments ago showing up as "available" and priced at something like 55k yen, and now their server is dead again.
rdrunner Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Just now, Sildani said: Placeholder page or someone’ mistake. right - maybe that's what the high price was - a placeholder.

chyll2 Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Stay away from NY. They cant deliver their promise.

I just ordered the 31J Kai from them and it's prep in progress after 1 hour. But another item that has been in prep in progress since yesterday has no movement since then.
orindlt Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 We literally have technologies where you can swap websites in and out of dev/prod deployment slots almost instantaneously and automatically scale up capacity when they are under load and it's like these stores are running on the web server that sat under my desk in a Uni IT department in the 1990's.

Can anyone share how to search in CDJ for pre-orders. I always see the PO link only after a fellow member posts it up here.

On a fair note, I don't think they invested in such features because they only get flooded when there's a Macross DX or Metal Build PO.
Chronocidal Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 Relying on NY? No. Using them as an alternate source to get a second or third one? Absolutely.

spanner Posted April 27, 2018 Posted April 27, 2018 I'd really like to avoid using NY this time (which I've mentioned previously) but will have to see how the pre-order madness goes..
