Valk-1S Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I check out late after it has been sold out as it was sitting in my cart and I got email confirmation and it's sitting in my account. Quote
jenius Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 CDJapan is still open... do they have a pretty good reputation with these things? I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Got order confirmation in my account page too. Back to gaming! Congrats on those who got one. For those who didn't, CDJ is still open. I didn't even look a the listed price on HLJ, i just saw it then went through the order process. :lol: same here. I just blitzed through the order process without looking at the price.

spanner Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) dang you have to pay now yes... Edited January 6, 2015 by spanner76 Quote
wm cheng Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Woohoo! Got my email confirmation from HLJ... going to sleep now, 4hrs till another 12hr work day! Good luck to everyone else. Quote
SaitouSad Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Im not paying upfront, so no CDJ for me. Hopefully NY down the track I guess I thought CD JApan only makes you pay upfront if you pay via Paypal. Credit Card payments will be charged only when it's ready to ship, right? Quote
PsYcHoDyNaMiX Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Uhh... how much discount was HLJ offering? I pre-ordered so fast I didn't even look, lol. Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Got mine on CDJ for $212.34 shipped EMS using my CDJ fun bucks points. CDJ fun bux for the win! I had some too Quote
Scream Man Posted January 6, 2015 Author Posted January 6, 2015 Yes, as long as yiou have the $300 right now Which I dont. Quote
Murphy Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 CDJapan is still open... do they have a pretty good reputation with these things? I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. They seem pretty good, I ordered the yf-30 and another chogokin that I can't remember which one and recieved them Quote
Sandman Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 nahh you can pay later! I just ordered another with them too! How do you do that? I don't see the option anywhere? Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 CDJapan is still open... do they have a pretty good reputation with these things? I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. Yeah. I've pretty much had my last like 7 Valks from CDJ and they always deliver. They're are very reliable. Quote

I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. They have fulfilled all my orders so far. Downside is payment upfront. But with the Aussie dollar falling, might be good for me. Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Uhh... how much discount was HLJ offering? I pre-ordered so fast I didn't even look, lol. My order email showed 21,840. Quote
Magnus Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 If anyone ordered a second by accident i'd be happy to take it off your hands! Please? Oh God... Quote
Spiderbite Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 HLJ's discount was only like 5%. About a 1200 yen difference from Amiami, but I figure the cost of shipping will balance it out since HLJ shipping is cheap. Quote

I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. Never had one problem with them, and the points add up over time allowing you to get nice discounts on future purchases. They tend to ship fast for me and all my items have arrived in perfect shape so far. Quote
nedragdnuos Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Hmm.. Cd Japan still showing available.... Quote
Valkyrie23 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Thank you Valkyrie23! No problem! Just lucky that I decided to search HLJ right after CDJ went up. Happy to see a lot of us got in on HLJ and CDJ. Quote
Sandman Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Want to get another but CDjapan won't let me order another. LOL! Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I had like 2998 Yen fun bux from CDJ. So with EMS shipping my total was $226 shipped. Quote
SaitouSad Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 just when I thought the madness was over when I got the 25S Ozma, this crap happens again Quote
technoblue Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Got mine on CDJ for $212.34 shipped EMS using my CDJ fun bucks points. Those funbux do come in handy. With that and a small PayPal balance, I was able to manage CDJ's preorder rules. I thought CD JApan only makes you pay upfront if you pay via Paypal. Credit Card payments will be charged only when it's ready to ship, right? That's correct. CC payments are charged when the item ships. Paypal is charged ahead of time.

Raya1823 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I haven't seen the POs on HS or NY yet... Yeah strange, normally NY is my "go to" for these things but not tonite Quote
Valk-1S Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Hobby Search and NY haven't put up theirs yet, so there's still hope to secure one. Quote
brouken Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Uhh... how much discount was HLJ offering? I pre-ordered so fast I didn't even look, lol. In HLJ's order page, its currently listed at Y23,000. But in my open orders page, its listed as Y21,850. That's about USD 184.00 as of today's exchange rates. :-) Quote
treatment Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 CDJapan is still open... do they have a pretty good reputation with these things? I haven't used them before but I seem to be on a pretty terrible streak of preordering toys from companies that never actually get them. CDJ is fine. They have the best packaging (bubblewraps, wax-wraps and sturdy boxes). Their pricings are not always the lowest, but usually competitive against hlj and ami. The downside on them is that they charge a bit more on shipping, and sometimes will only offer EMS/SAL-Parcel. Also, fwiw, CDJ doesn't charge up front unless you use Paypal. Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I can actually lay off NY tonight. How nice! Quote
Graham Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Well, that was pretty painless. Used CD Japan. Graham Quote
treatment Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) CDJ also do not charge japanese sales-tax if you're outside japan. As such, you guys are such big spenders. 23k yen is a bit much for me... Edited January 6, 2015 by treatment Quote
Guest davidwhangchoi Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) i ordered from both cdjapan and hlj to be safe, hlj never shipped my 25s. so i can just hold serve for now and alter orders close to may. Edited January 6, 2015 by davidwhangchoi Quote
Magnus Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Ironically CD Japan doesn't allow shipping to Japan.... Quote
