Wait till the 2nd shippment of the DX Missle packs, then will see the prices drop on that one. Quote

Sanity is Optional Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 Should really do a Bay Area Macross meet-up at some point, after the Virus thing is over. Quote

DYRL VF-1S Posted June 8, 2020 Posted June 8, 2020 I keep thinking there is a great convo going on with all the updates or maybe even interesting news, but alas, it's become a sales thread.... Perhaps you could create a sales post @RedComet and everyone can take the convo there? Quote

Expand I upgraded my shipping from SAL to Airmail, about 500 yen. Got shipment notice a few days back and after a day or two, I got the tracking number. There has been movement in Japan and already dispatched from outward exchange. Hopefully the delay on my country is manageable. Quote
canklebreaker Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Am I still able to file a dispute with PayPal if I used my chase account for the payment to NY? It’s been over a year. Quote
Corrinald Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 NY responded to my request to switch to Ferry and updated the shipping method. I haven't received a preparation in progress notice yet. They gave me a 4700 yen coupon for the store. Was hoping to just get that money back, but meh. Now we will see how long it takes them to actually send it. Quote

Expand I think as long as nothing has shipped, you may still be able to file a dispute....however, it would be best to either contact PayPal, Chase or go and read their Terms and Conditions....or just reach out to NY and see what they can do for you? Seems lately they have been more accommodating than usual... Quote
fenrir72 Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Snagged the missiles set for Y9K. Waiting for the DHL cost computation. At least my DYRL is no longer nekid! Quote

astig_z Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Wow just as I was thinking about my SSP preorder for 4/30/20 for the 1/48. I’ve emailed NY 2x and got an open ticket with them but haven’t got an reply yet. Hopefully they get back to me soon! i bought my VF1-S hikaru from them and it was an easy transaction. No problems. But with all the delays from the pandemic everything is up in the air. Should I upgrade my shipping?! I just did ems. Quote
wm cheng Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 I just got my YF-19 from Mandarake and paid EMS (you have to watch which countries accept EMS - Canada does, but US doesn't) and it shipped Apr 15 and just got it last week which was 1.5 months so I don't think there's much air travel, I think it must have arrived via boat. I don't think it was worth EMS, either slow boat ship it or pay for couriers like FedEx or DHL if you can't wait. Quote

Bahamutzyro Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 Well, I received 2 of my dx super strike parts from NY. I paid extra 60.00 to ship them via ups but it took 3 weeks for them to ship it out. They still owe me 2 sets but I’ll wait till EMS is shipping. Quote
DYRL VF-1S Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 A second wave of missiles are supposed to begin shipping 6/17. Mine are at AE. I added my Tenso address. Hoping they’ll ship it there. Quote

Expand Totally! I'm really hoping they're cool with changing to a Tenso address. I already made the change on the account so we'll see when the time comes in a week or so. It stinks to pay the Tenso fee (though not that large of one) but at least DHL should be "reasonable" since the missile boxes are small. Quote
DYRL VF-1S Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 I'm ready for another 1/48 DX announcement please (oooor YF-21) Think we'll have any luck of new displays being show at "TAMASHII Features 2020" on July 4th and 5th? Quote

Dobber Posted June 14, 2020 Posted June 14, 2020 Crap! I completely forgot about the SSP! I paid for the damn thing over a year ago, 6/6/19, with EMS shipping at NIppon Yasan. Haven’t heard a thing from them and checking the order status it just says Pre-order payment OK. Chris Quote

spacemanoeuvres Posted June 14, 2020 Posted June 14, 2020 I just decided to check my NY orders and see that I have six sets of SSP ordered. Four from the initial PO and two from the second round. I think I’ll ask them to ship via surface; maybe they will offer a store credit for the difference? Quote
