Phalanix Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Yeah, it went by really fast, I didn't even bother reading if HLJ had a limit. I ordered one, then thought maybe I'll order another one and made a separate order. Wasn't trying to bypass the limit on purpose, just changed my mind and decided to get 2 - could always cancel the extra one if I change my mind later... That's what I like about ordering from HLJ. If there is a limit, HLJ will cancel the extra order... guess we'll see. Oops! Quote
IXTL Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Closed in one minute! ROFLMAO! One minute?!? I'm sure it was less than that. My page scanner pinged that the order was open at 1645JST and pinged almost immediately after that it was closed. The scans were 5 sec apart btw. Quote
ErikElvis Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I ordered 2 from HLJ and not my email and password are not recognized. Quote

The scans were 5 sec apart btw. i am refreshing mine every 5 seconds. when it registered, I copied the link it, then clicked, then transfer to this tab to paste to here. when I saw it loaded, prolly another 5 seconds, it was already sold out.

neoexcaliber Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I ordered 2 from HLJ and not my email and password are not recognized. Why does it sound like they suspended your account? Quote

eggy99 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Got mine at HLJ. Confirmation email received. Might preorder an Armoured VF-1J Hikaru now so the shipping is better. Not sure because I don't collect hero valks (exception is Isamu custom) as it just leads me to want to buy all the hero valks (was balls - dumb swiftkey keyboard haha) (too expensive ) Edited January 6, 2015 by eggy99 Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Big thanks to the guys who came through with CDJ and HLJ links too Quote

Valk-1S Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Yeah they nabbed me. If they suspended your account, just write to them and ask them why and if they said you broke their policy just apologies to them and let them know it was by mistake as you though the first order didn't go through. Quote
Chronocidal Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I almost muffed this one up big time.. I was actually on a game running some dungeon with a few friends at 11, completely forgot about the time change, and thought I had til 12.. I panicked, loaded CD Japan (the page was appearing broken at the time, nothing loaded right), and found the right places to click, all while trying to play an rpg one handed. Still, most painless order yet, outside of webshop stuff. Quote
treatment Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 i am refreshing mine every 5 seconds. when it registered, I copied the link it, then clicked, then transfer to this tab to paste to here. when I saw it loaded, prolly another 5 seconds, it was already sold out. Very possibly just 5-secs. You posted it up around 11:45 PST. I clicked on it immediately and my clock was at 11:46 PST. It was already closed. Posted my comment right away at 11:46 PST. Ridiculous... Quote
eggy99 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Good luck with all the hero BALLS ...JK. That's what I get for not checking swiftkey keyboard! XD Quote
chyll2 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) this is getting weird. NY is not yet out edit: in that one hour time frame, NY only put two sailor moon figures and one PS vita accessories Edited January 6, 2015 by chyll2 Quote
anime52k8 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I know there's about a 95% chance HLJ will open up orders closer to release like they always do, but this still sucks. Also, frakk CDJ and frakk NY. I kinda want to go order a porno figure off Mandarake out of spite. Quote
eyesonme78 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I missed all the major players, now the option is either Ny or amazon.jp... Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) There are at least 18 products up for preorder tonight (just guessing from that CDJ newsletter) so it might be awhile for NY. They are sloooow about putting up those product pages one by one. Edited January 6, 2015 by xrentonx Quote
Saburo Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 this is getting weird. NY is not yet out edit: in that one hour time frame, NY only put two sailor moon figures and one PS vita accessories They are taking their time and laughing at us... or rolling dice to see what the markup will be. Quote
Loop Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 I almost missed this one tonight, I got my new Denon receiver tonight and went to replace the old one with it and got distracted and almost forgot Glad CDJ was there with stock lol. Quote
Moosey Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 or rolling dice to see what the markup will be. Most likely Quote

Sent HLJ an e-mail explaining the situation, will see what they say. Honestly, didn't see they had a one order limit. ^_^'Edit: Account unlocked by HLJ. Woot! Edited January 6, 2015 by Phalanix Quote
xrentonx Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) YEAH....spite. Hahah Edited January 6, 2015 by xrentonx Quote
treatment Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) They are taking their time and laughing at us... or rolling dice to see what the markup will be. Maybe they just failed to snipe/cart-jack extra valks from the other retailers coz you guys cleaned out ami/hlj/cdj/hs quickly... Edited January 6, 2015 by treatment Quote
F360 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 sigh.. missed every single one http://www.amiami.co...009634&page=top (CLOSED) http://www.cdjapan.c...t/NEOGDS-130367 (CLOSED) http://www.hlj.com/p...t/BAN992012/Act (CLOSED) http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10306934 (CLOSED) Quote
Falcon18 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Wait for NY. They usually come through. Also possible that orders might open in the future nearer to release. Always been that way. Same thing with the 25S with CDJ. Also glad this was more painless than the 25S. Quote
Swoosh Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Didn't order from HLJ for a long time, was a bit panic coz I didn't know that I won't see the order in my account until I receive the confirmation email... Quote
chyll2 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) still waiting on NY. almost another hour and they got the star wars stuff now. maybe another hour before the VF-19 OT: damn, that darth vader SHF got sold out in less than a minute Edited January 6, 2015 by chyll2 Quote
chyll2 Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Sure is quiet on this thread now... they are sleeping now thanks to HLJ and CDJ Quote
brouken Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 Haha, calm after the storm. What time is it in Seattle Saburo? Quote
Saburo Posted January 6, 2015 Posted January 6, 2015 they are sleeping now thanks to HLJ and CDJ With their PO's safely tucked away. Haha, calm after the storm. What time is it in Seattle Saburo? 50min past midnight. Quote
