  1. Nice! I'm so tempted!

    I am! At least confident enough that they will refund if they don't deliver. Basically, I'm willing to wait as long as it takes to find out. If anyone would rather have money and no Valk instead of waiting to see, I'm ready to go!

    What @rdrunner said. There is also a shipping calculator on the right side you can use after adding items to cart.

    There's money on the table!
  5. Tell me about it! I have no pics but revived one ebay item yesterday and should be getting another shipment soon because of those coupons. Haha, good perspective. Most my friends don't say anything but I'm sure they think I'm a nut for having such an immense toy collection. The other friends are just as bad as I am and we just call ourselves nuts. But yeah, if you just want to look at it from a value standpoint, Valks seem to hold their value and actually increase more than clothes or even some jewlery and wine.
  6. Wow, FEXT looking to clean house on the armor market!? 1/48 version next? I hope these end up very affordable because honestly, I'm a bit soured by them only offering certain load outs with each version to force people to buy multiples to get all the accessory options. It makes me kinda want to just skip them all instead.

    Now more serious than ever...I'm still offering all those who are fed up with NY an out. $302 to you immediately to ease your worries. Just send me the Valk when you get it or when you get your refund, just refund me. Win/win!

    Just got the same notice and refund from mykombini. F'ers, lol. Oh well, it's just a toy and based on the exchange rate, I might have made a few bucks on the money swapping.

    Damn, that would have been handy for some money I lost with Anime Island...

    Remember the Mospeada Tread "deal" at Walmart a while back? One of their vendors, i think it was Toynk Toys had Treads for ~$6 (or something ridiculously cheap like that). People, including myself ordered them and got a keychain instead. Of course, they refunded the orders and even let me keep the keychain but WTF?!

    Thanks man! I dropped the ball myself and waited too long. NY usually has orders open up to around a month before release. This one closed in early December so it caught me off guard! That would be totally F'd up. Something similar happened to me at HasbroToyShop...I hate them but still use the site out of necessity.

    Part joking, part real. I'm not going to back out of what I said, joking or not. Just seems like a lot of people are saying they'd rather have refunds and are fed up with NY. I figure $300 covers more than anyone paid NY with enough to cover slapping postage on it to send to me when they get it and have some extra left over to help ease the trauma NY caused. Everyone wins!

    I offered $300, or actually it went up to $302 to anyone who was fed up and didn't want their order from NY to give it to me a few posts back. Offer still stands.

    The difference is, money in hand that can be used for other things is worth more to some people. Paying up front for something is basically giving the shops free loans. I never pay up front if I don't have to.

    Yeah, I like CDJ too but their pricing is very inconsistent. Their last few items were priced the same as HLJ and HLJ's pricing has gone up a lot lately. I was surprised to see CDJ price this one lower than everyone but NY. Yeah, again CDJ is cool but they are inconsistent with pricing and for the hard to get items, their website is the most sketchy to me. Always seem to have login problems or other strange issues with tough preorders there. I'm glad this one was easy.

    LOL, you were right! It's been jumping around. Currently at 6 in stock. Hope so. I don't mind going to sleep earlier even though I planned to be up for another two hours or more if needed.

    Nice, NY opened earlier than usual and lowest price, as usual.
  18. Interesting solution. Have you considered using UV tint? This is the dilemma. Sometimes, the best or only place for a cabinet is exposed to direct sunlight. I've considered tinting the window with UV tint but never got around to it. So I have to resort to placing cabinets out of direct light as you suggest. Would be interesting to hear other solutions. @Shizuka the Cat have you used the spray before and how effective is it? Could you just treat the window glass instead? I'm not sure how good the spray works but you can definitely get nearly clear tint that filters 99%+ UVA/UVB.

    I didn't mean anyone in particular but just an attempt to see if anyone was willing to put their potential Valk where their mouth (or keyboard finger) is. So...what about $302?

    And they have other Bandai products go on preorder since the release date of the 31A. People are just freaking out like what always happens when an item doesn't ship immediately. It does seem like there are supply issues in this case but likely on Bandai. I'll be happy to pay $300 for anyone's NY order if they are so upset they want to swear off the shop.
