This is the first preorder madness I've failed in years...

I'm with you! Usually I can grab one from somewhere... 

[Rein+]

MW is beaten? is anyone got through?

[gulan]

ring of death at hlj on the check out page.....still waiting

[jenius]

if you keep trying and get one from HLJ... there's a good chance you'll get an email from HLJ a week from now telling you that all you really got was a server error.

[UN Spacy]

WHEW...got one in at HLJ.

I'm going to try for a 2nd as insurance, if they're both good I can pass you one since we're close by.

[Darth Mingus]

Hlj took forever, but it did go through, just have to wait for confirmation. 

[Hikaru1234567890]

Finally got my order in at HLJ! hope you all can get one in.

[Macrossmerrell]

I got an order acknowledgement from HLJ after 50 checkout attempts...

[PsYcHoDyNaMiX]

Yea I have a feeling the hlj email cancellation will ensue the following days.

[HardlyNever]

Sums up tonight:

 

[Roy Focker]

every site is crashing.

[F360]

Took a long time , got 1 from cdjapan,  

[kkx]

up at amazon jp for 34,800 yen

 

[shdwfx2000]

Now I’m worried. I got through at HLJ too....

[Capedbaldy]

Damn. I got through in HLJ, got my paypal in and now it kicked me back out saying this order is stop status.

[Killaforevah]

OMG, I was at checkout in Hlj, and changed currency to yen, and brought me back to the beginning

[505thAirborne]

Man, that was brutal but I did score one off of HLJ. May the rest of you get one as well. 

[chyll2]

this is bullshit.

[Shizuka the Cat]

I am still checking for sites like Anime-Export, Nippon-Yasan, and others to start listing the VF-1A. I will update links as I hear about them

Well then I wish you luck! Keep me posted... I'll certainly brag if I can snag one. They're already showing up on Yahoo Japan for 30,000¥.

Not sold by Amazon so won't ship .... 3rd party

 

[no3Ljm]

After I got to the payment page at HLJ, it cancelled my order. Sorry again, @davidwhangchoi.

 

[eggy99]

Yep missed a PO at HLJ too.

Same

[Duymon]

This has been easily the worst preorder for a dx valk since forever.

 

Let's hope I don't get the dreaded server error email :/

 

[Darth Mingus]

Imagine what pre-order night will be like for the 1s.

Hope not! I got one too and they have not let me down before (although I heard about the recent saga)

[UN Spacy]

LOL Amazon Japan's preorder price is now pathetic.

They totally had the best deal for the VF-1J...now they think they can gauge the fans, and that isn't a second hand seller price too.

[Convectuoso]

I give up. I'm going back to bed
