At this point, paying more than 21000 yen for a preorder makes no sense when that is what current, in hand first issues go for on yahoo auctions imho

Well, you do have to have a Japanese contact to get them though

Man I' really stoked what the whole deal is with those PMs going around the MAcross World.

Is it a secret treasure map to Bandais warehouses?

An IE zero day exploit to allow shopping without any lags or the fear of getting booted out at the check out?

A secret telephone number where you can reserve as many DX Chogokins as you like for the tiny price of your worthless Gajin soul?

A drug that makes you believe you're Scrooge Mc Duck and instead of swimming in a pile of money you're swimming in a sea of Renewals?

What is it?

Its a mystery packed inside a mystery packed inside an enigma.

But I will find out! *grabs the Indiana Jones hat and whistles a song* ;)

Psst don't tell me that will eliminate the whole fun of finding out. :(

But now I'm a member of the secret society of secret things. *puts on an acolyte robe and hums*

It keeps things interesting and gives just a little motivation for the crowd. :)

that link posted earlier had some pretty cheap.. well below 20k yen anyway. Maybe use agents like Celga to buy it now.

why do you play the secret pm game here...? why not tell everybody?

Just pm someone. They'll tell ya. It really only keeps the pubbies from finding out anyway. I would've asked if it could just be posted here in the thread but since everyone was doing pms i figured "why not just follow the leader?" :)

...and I didn't want to feel left out of the secret handshake :(:)

Haha. it's not a secret. It's just common sense. I sent it originally over PM because I didn't want to sidetrack the thread, which has happened already.

Hmmmm I was going to post it.. but secret handshakes are more fun!

I just sent about 10 Pms. Let me know if you need said "tip".

And no, it's nothing illegal or hacky. Just common sense.

If NY makes most of theirs available at the same time(s) as they did last night, I'll never get one. I didn't "miss those by a minute", that was bedtime for me.

It's currently about 1AM in Japan. Should I even bother checking over the next few hours? Do they ever list stuff in the middle of the night, local time?

You never know, but I would assume around the same time last night they will start adding more inventory.

Yeah but it was a bit fun while it lasted and I actually do think some cats here really appreciate people helping each other. :) good vibes!

Made all the waiting and paying too much more fun. Wish I'd had a few beers last night haha

So there are some of us who stayed up till 3 am on multiple nights and still have not be able to get just 1 re-issue of any model. And then there are others who have multiple issues of multiple models and complain that they cannot get one more.....

I guess life is just unfair.
