xrentonx Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Callin it a night...good luck to the rest of you Quote
Sandman Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Screw that. 20 Mins later and that dramatic of a hike? They didn't do that for the Ozuma Yf-29. Nippon Yasen can suck my ba__s. Quote
charger69 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) They have 77 left. Kind of a relief Edited March 3, 2014 by charger69 Quote
Loop Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 They can keep them for that price. Yeah I can see that, considering the first round was only 125.72 USD. Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 3, 2014 Author Posted March 3, 2014 at least it's not a dramatic hike above SRP.I get the feeling these will be easily found after release Quote
Duymon Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) With a 3,000 yen price hike? Awesome move there folks....asshats. Yeah, like OMG they're charging 10 bucks above retail which is prolly what it takes to break even after preordering it from another brick and mortar Edited March 3, 2014 by Duymon Quote
charger69 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Now $148 >> That's interesting! Come back to $135, then maybe.... Edited March 3, 2014 by charger69 Quote
Sandman Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Yeah after the CF 171 which i paid $200 for each of the three i got. They ended up going SRP when they were released. I'm not getting burned like that again. Still pissed at that especially since they are all POSs. Quote
Phalanix Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Price just went down to $148.51 Which isn't bad considering retail price is 14000 JPY Edited March 3, 2014 by Phalanix Quote
UN Spacy Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 at least it's not a dramatic hike above SRP. I get the feeling these will be easily found after release Pretty much. Quote
Loop Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) What was MSRP on these? NM, I saw what Phalanix posted. That really is not too bad at all actually. The one I got on CDJ was SRP. I think the shocker is that the people looking at this on NY saw it go from 125 to 148, this will always create a reaction with the buyers. As long as it's just a tiny bit higher than SRP or lower than SRP, it's good to get if you are not waiting to chance stock on release day. I know it sucks seeing the amiami price first which is 15% off SRP, but 10 bucks above SRP is not like getting super scalped or any thing. Edited March 3, 2014 by Loop Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 With a 3,000 yen price hike? Awesome move there folks....asshats. agree Quote
close313 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Oh well, my browser lagged out at all of the websites during refresh and missed them all. Looks like im ending up with NY again :/ their prices don't reach as much as the local shops here selling these DXes, so i guess im fine with that. We can probably see during ozma's yf-29 release to tell how the availability would be like. But other than that i believe this guy would be easy to find afterwards Edited March 3, 2014 by close313 Quote
Sandman Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Wow check out this N-Y markup... At least they didn't rape me on shipping.... Edited March 3, 2014 by Sandman Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) i only got one of these. i could've ordered another but i don't think this is going to be hard to get at release (just my feeling it's not that popular). i don't think it's worth a double imo. i see this as the rvf 25 or 25a, one's enough for me. cool head design though. maybe i might get another if it's dirt cheap like the 25a's Edited March 3, 2014 by davidwhangchoi Quote
typhoon Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Damn!! Totally forgot about this today. Just decided to check up on the forum news and bang, I saw an additional 2 pages under the YF-25 banner....I grabbed my two, the price hike sucks - but at least I can relax. Funnily enough, forgetting was almost a blessing - no stress. (Until I realised I forgot) Quote
charger69 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Available at AE 135.45 USD http://www.anime-export.com/product/18420 (Sold out in a couple of minutes) Edited March 3, 2014 by charger69 Quote
Firefox Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 When I order from NY it's listed as 15120yen. Not cheap but not too bad. Quote
SaitouSad Posted March 3, 2014 Author Posted March 3, 2014 I like the details on head unit! That's really all it has going for. And the fact that the colour scheme isn't the same horrible peppermint green as the RVF. Do you guys think they'll make some kind of super pack for this? I think it looks fine naked to be honest.. Quote
Valk-1S Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 I'll wait for it when it gets release. I think this one has a lot more chance for it being available when it comes out compared to the YF-29 Ozma. To me the availability of this would be like the RVF-25 or the most VF-25A. Quote
Mizicke5273 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Glad I logged on to check the board earlier this morning than usual. I grabbed one from NY. Inwas debating on a second, but figure I'll wait and see what happens after release. Quote
Mommar Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 Man, I'm about out of room really. My collection has spread to another desk now. I need to quit buying these things and get a proper display cabinet instead. Quote
yman1437 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 pre-ordered one @ NY too just in case...round 2, I am not getting up @ 3am to do these things anymore, almost zero chance to get it anyway. And it should be readily available after release, but the YF-29 ozma is another story... Quote
Raya1823 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 YES!!! I was able to pre-order, now the wait begins. Quote
chyll2 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 i guess HLJ was early for this item. http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN985605/Sci sold out though Quote
ErikElvis Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 wasn't prepared for this one at all. oh well. Quote
Duymon Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 considering how slow it's setlling at NY at 10 bucks above retail you can bet these will be around during release time for retail at least. Quote
Mechapilot77 Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 wow missed another one....this and the 29 ozma....guess i'll have to wait for retail. Quote
Mommar Posted March 3, 2014 Posted March 3, 2014 I'm assuming at this point the mold has pretty much paid for itself and Bandai is taking chances with other 25 schemes because it's all profit for sales now. Quote
