Slave IV Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 And done! Ordered at NY with shipping for less than most places without shipping and now waiting to see them announce the Premium Version and how the KO's turns out before I decide how many more of what I'm buying. Quote
spanner Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 22,780 yen including shipping is quite reasonable.. Quote
spanner Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 end of December for Max eh, that's ok I guess.. Quote
Lolicon Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Ordered 2x from NY since I had a discount coupon burning a hole in my pocket. Despite NY's inflated shipping costs, it ended up being marginally cheaper than 2x at HLJ (before shipping) thanks to the coupon. Don't expect me to be doing cartwheels over saving a measly $10. But credit where it's due: NY finally outdid HLJ. Quote

Maybe they'll give an honest answer like "We're considering it" or maybe they'll just say "No."Â Seconding a request for someone to do this - not sure I'd get a good result because 1) Google Translate and 2) I have no other tweets.

sh9000 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Preordered at NY for 20,770 JPY shipped. Â No need for EMS shipping and once again the price shipped beating many other stores. Quote
Pedro2k6 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Got one at NY for 21,000 shipped.  With HLJ it would be 21,800 + 5,200 for EMS shipping(no more options and maybe more money) + 30% taxes (item + shipping). Grand total: 35,100. That's why I love NY. Quote
General Rasp Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Pre-ordered at HLJ. I am sure I will have other items to ship with Milia by the time September comes. That was a very easy pre-order, much nicer than trying to get bandai stuff. Just need that Max pre-order and I will be all set. Quote
Cowboy17 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Added one to cart at N-Y.  Why is the US Currency option 217.00, when the JPY option is 21700y (198 USD?)  Can I just select pay in JPY, and paypal will handle the conversion?   Quote
technoblue Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 (edited) ^Awesome. I placed an order with N-Y. If Arcadia releases a premium finish version, I'll be getting two!  57 minutes ago, Cowboy17 said: Added one to cart at N-Y.  Why is the US Currency option 217.00, when the JPY option is 21700y (198 USD?)  Can I just select pay in JPY, and paypal will handle the conversion? Yes, you can pay in JPY and let PayPal do the currency conversion to get a better rate. PayPal allows you to use certain no fee credit cards, for example, but if you don't have that option you are still paying at a lower rate than N-Y. I think PayPal's fee is 2.5-3%.

I have also noticed this.. it gives me the option to choose Australian currency but its always cheaper for me to select the Japanese currency. Worked out to be about $20 to $30 cheaper for me. Quote
Bahamutzyro Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Yeah ny does that. I always checkout in the yen and it's always cheaper Quote
Universe1010 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Now bring the max preorder out as well and next premium finish Quote
Raya1823 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 HA!! I got one from NY as well!!! YES FINALLY!!! Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Does anyone else notice there's two different shades of red? Maybe I should wait before I PO this. Quote
ZorClone Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 I cannot make my mind up about these... ugh! Quote

Looks like a lighting effect to me. The last pic that sh9000 shared doesn't have that shade/tone variance because the Valkyrie isn't directly under a hot lamp.

Froy Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Been cheking at NY. But after the conversion I have a price of 3,816 MXN. This is 200 MXN more than HLJ. For USD the price conversion is right, around 15 USD cheaper. Any explanation? Don't want to cancel my PO at HLJ and find a nasty surprise when paying time comes. Quote
Valkyrie2008 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Guess I'll nab one from NY then. I've notice there's no paypal fee added to the order for any preorder items, but once the item become available, paypal will add a fee to the order. All other sites, paypal automatically add there fee without tell. Quote
jenius Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 NY and combine with premium Roy to also save on shipping seems like a slam dunk. Quote
Mommar Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 All these years I said if they re-released Max and Millia I'd double dip on a second one of each and now they're finally up for PO and I have unemployment looming. Â I'm skipping these. Quote

Sorry to hear that bro, I used to double dip too but now I have three babies so I could barely afford one or the other. I'll try to get Millia and Max since that's what missing in my collection.  47 minutes ago, jenius said: NY and combine with premium Roy to also save on shipping seems like a slam dunk. I'm new to this, what's the different between the Premium version and the regular version?

Moosey Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 As much as the NY discount is tempting, i'm sticking with HLJ. I have previous disappointments with damaged Valks from both, but HLJ showed good customer service while NY showed none. Pre-ordered. Max won't have to be alone for too much longer! Quote
Zx31 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 What's the hesitation with ordering from AmiAmi? Quote
Boobytrap Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Done and done. PO from NY. Why can't Bandai be this easy? Do they really make more money with their PO restrictions? Quote
Britai 7018 Posted April 21, 2017 Posted April 21, 2017 Can't Wait! Preordered from AmiAmi. I'm just glad its not the same experience as the Bandai Valkyries... Quote
