Does lunapark require immediate payment for their pre-orders?

Yes. I made my preorder of the 31AX there and they charged for it immediately.

Did you pay thru credit card or Paypal?

First one, then the other. I waited too long to pursue a chargeback so NY is keeping my money. 

I got ripped off I tell ya!

Apologies for getting off topic. I’ll keep complaining here:

Paypal.

Paypal.

I see. I think most online shops take the payment instantly thru Paypal. Whereas, credit cards on the other hand will be charged once they received the supply.

Thanks @Miles_Wolf!

[weiser21]

Any other links aside from Luna Park?

Oh, didn't know that.

I used Paypal for the protection they give you in case there's some problem. Recently I had a problem with Nippon Yasan, and Paypal returned me the money with no problems.

Really depends on the policy. Others charge your card immediately for preorders.

[Sanity is Optional]

Also depends on the release.

web exclusives are almost always pay up front, while normal releases are by retailer. The ones selling at msrp are almost always pay on release for those.

Loans?  What are you on about?

I mean, how else are you sustaining this hobby where you are compelled to absolutely buy 6 copies of each release? 

J/k

But yeah, that's a new concept I've never seen before.

Just sharing this code here if anyone wants to order at Luna Park for Y2000 off: NEWCUSTOMER

 

Thanks for this, might be a bit pricier than some of the others will be on preorder day but skipping the madness and being up super early is worth it I think. Made my order.

[Dirtyboy]

Why is the AX costing 25,300 JPY, surely the extra stand shouldnt cost that much extra?

No but how many people who aren’t going to preorder this because of the extra cost as the primary reason? That’s why.

So is tonight pre-order madness?

Yep.

[borgified]

So far Luna has their own pre-order up. Others suppliers should have it up very soon, as there's less than 8 hours left before the crap fest begins.

Hopefully they don't take to many pre-orders and cancel a lot of them....

Hopefully not, cause I can't be up at the time needed for the mad minutes lol.

[Mommar]

I'm still debating if I should just go for it with Luna now or wait.  I really don't want to be up at 1 am tonight.

[seti88]

Sometimes i wish bandai would just release all of the variants at once and let us pick which to order...hahahaha..

pesky waiting around....

[borgified]

@Mac - Hopefully that if you put in an order at HLJ, make sure that they don't chop your order out as they did for Chucky's 31e when it was up (they had very limited amounts of the DX 31e). They might have changed it after that. 

[no3Ljm]

Tonight's the night, huh? I'm sitting this one out so I wish everyone good luck. 

 

[borgified]

Less than 5 hours and still "Bo Diddly" for those getting it at other suppliers?? 

[Sanity is Optional]

Just under 3 hours, it's at 4pm JST, right? That's midnight PST, and 3AM EST.

[weiser21]

Huh... At 17:00 JST according to Amiami?? 

Nope.. Waiting for Mirage's 31ax instead. Got too much stuff coming in, gotta set priorities.

Looks like everything else up for preorder on Amiami's site has been set to 1700.

Curious why they put it at 5pm instead of 4?  Didn't the official announcement say 4pm?

[Saviant]

I just ordered one with lunapark, really don't feel like fighting to get one

[borgified]

That's what it says @PsYcHoDyNaMiX. I looked at it again just to make sure.

Yeah ditto - I will be satisfied with the two VF1D DX's which arrived earlier this week. 

Good luck ppl!

Well let's see how Luna Park's reliability is.  I might still try and grab one from another vendor to see what happens, but this release is a good one to test the waters on, since I'm not going to be horribly disappointed if I can't get one.
