RIBFIR Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 For the folks that have used Luna Park in the past, do they tend to ship their orders right around the release date? Also, anyone know if they still offer any promo's/coupons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wm cheng Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 I don't get it, why did some stores allow ordering beforehand? Is it because this is TWE? Glad to pay at NY now to not have to wake up at 3am tonight when I work 14hr days! I know about NY - but they have never failed me yet (even with the VF-31A). I hope they allow EMS to Canada by the time September rolls around, I hate UPS/FEDEX/Purolator with their processing fees and brokerage plus its 100% duty dinged whereas EMS has been 90% duty free so far.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so nice to be able to relax a little bit for once and not stress out on a pre-order night. Lucky for me I don't need another VF-1J and I could just order the armour. Having said that though, good luck to everyone seeking the bundle. I hope you all manage to secure a pre-order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately I’m one of the few that they refunded. On top of that, I forgot about the order til I saw the refund come in. Talk about luck  back on topic, I’ll take a gamble and try to save money by ordering either on big in Japan or some site such as a Amiami.  At the current way things are going, we are only off by about $50+/-   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketblast Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 yeah I haven't bought anything since that last order that they refunded, after seeing all the stories on here :\ I thought it was going to be the go-to place to buy this stuff from. MyKombini banned me from their site after I sent a DX VF-1A back to them twice after finding out that it had the wrong leg armor part. So I pretty much have no choice but to avoid that site lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, anyone know if they still offer any promo's/coupons? LP uses a point system from previous purchases. You can generate a coupon from the previous points, 1 point is 1 yen I think, which you can then use to off set your current purchase. Click on the pop up that shows on the bottom left to do this once you sign in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
