Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Guys, Nippon Yasan just changed the photo to a Version 1!!!!! it looks like it may have been a picture error and they put the v2. photo up by accident... http://www.nippon-yasan.com/lang-en/macross/5838-macross-ve-1-elintseeker.html Quote
plastik Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 so are people actually getting the one from the link below or Version 1? http://www.nippon-yasan.com/lang-en/macross/3694-macross-1-60-ve-1-elintseeker-w-option-parts.html Quote

Luckily I just called into NY and got a credit slip immediately. FUnnily enough their Staff is better able to handle English speakers than Japanese speakers, which is funny for a Japanese company....... welp, at least I can apply that credit towards my VF-25A orders next month Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) you welcome:) plastik, you still want it? heehee (good thing i didn't pm you 5 mins too soon) i'll pm you on my ve-1 we were talking about) Edited September 11, 2013 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Gakken85 Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Ah, the ole V1 switch-aroo! frakking NY! haha Quote
plastik Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) david, thank god you messaged me later when it was out of stock...I would've been a very sad collector Edited September 11, 2013 by plastik Quote
SuperSenpai Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 I think this happened to another forum member recently. There was a v1 Milia with super parts and a launch arm on eBay that someone here bought thinking it was a v2. I remember seeing that listing too -- think it was for like $100? That would have been an unreal price for a v2 Mila, let alone the added launch arm. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) The problem is that what happened with the ebay v1 Millia with launch arm was that the buyer did not recognize it as a v1 in the picture, besides it was still a steal with the launch arm for only 100 and after contacting the ebay seller it was refunded. Nippon-Yasan has had that listing for about a week with a v2 VE-1 picture clearly and not until recently they changed the picture and they never offer details of the product, I bet NY will not accept any kind of returns or give refund for their purposed mistake. And did you see the shipping for it? 40 bucks EMS?? for the small v1 box.....yeah right Edited September 11, 2013 by Valkyrie addict Quote

mog_kupo Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Dont know if this will help, but in the preowned section of Ami-Ami VF-171 EX...........19k yen VF-0A................13500 yen I bought my VF-171EX in the same section, with the same category A-toy B-box and it was like new Quote
skullmilitia Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Prices are dropping! Seems like people are assuming VF-0 renewals and M n' M reissues! Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 Not at all. I called NY and got a paypal refund within 5 minutes. I stand corrected but I still feel NY are no good. Where are you guys seeing the M&M dropping in price?? so far I've only seen the VF-1J Max on Mandarake. Quote

Reïvaj Posted September 11, 2013 Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) Luckily I just called into NY and got a credit slip immediately. FUnnily enough their Staff is better able to handle English speakers than Japanese speakers, which is funny for a Japanese company....... That's because their staff is composed of Japanese and French, speaking fluent Japanese, English, French and Spanish. Edited September 11, 2013 by Reïvaj Quote
Gakken85 Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Funny they can know all those languages.. yet they can't fooking combine a shipment. Quote
skullmilitia Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Prices are making thier way down. I'm happy to say I snagged a VF-4 for 40,000K Cheapest I've seen in a long time. I'm glad since I mistakenly sold mine for retail. Quote
Gakken85 Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 I saw one on NY for less than 40,000 a few weeks back. Don't know how much it sold for, but yeah I think prices will keep dropping as arcadia starts releasing more stuff. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 Prices are hitting the floor. An early release of a loose v2 VF-1S Roy went for 68 bucks on ebay earlier today. All the YF-19 and YF-21 are going for less than 200. Quote

All the YF-19 and YF-21 are going for less than 200. I think I saw that one. Thought the listing was a bit misleading, as he said the thing was in excellent condition except that one of the shoulders was "a little loose". If you bothered to look at the pictures though, the shoulders were clearly broken. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 12, 2013 Posted September 12, 2013 I saw them, it was clearly broken but still at one moment during the frenzy a valk in this conditions would go for over 100 bucks. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Wow, someone got a pretty good deal on a VF-1D: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321205431034?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Non 30th edition, possibly faulty shoulder, 0 feedback, next to no description. Fair price. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah, 0 feedback sellers are always a risk, but sometimes you roll the dice and get lucky. As for the shoulders -- I thought that all the 1Ds were safe. It's hard to keep track of which ones are safe and which are faulty, but by and large the TV valks are all safe -- unless it's an early Hikaru 1J with the tinted canopy. That being said, I recently rolled the dice on a MIB early release Hikaru 1J, and it had perfect shoulders. Quote
Valkyrie addict Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah, all 1D are safe but with 0 feedback and no description, you never know. Quote
SuperSenpai Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 Yeah, all 1D are safe but with 0 feedback and no description, you never know. Hey, we were all 0 feedback sellers at one point or another. Quote

That being said, I recently rolled the dice on a MIB early release Hikaru 1J, and it had perfect shoulders. it's safe on anymoon's list, though i brought a 1d that had a bad shoulder right out of the box + knarled pins. i guess i got a fluke.

skullmilitia Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 1D's haven't been safe, so ... Quote
dapro Posted September 13, 2013 Posted September 13, 2013 No feedback is a risk for hassle if something is wrong. At least you are covered by ebay if item is never deliver or not as described. Quote
