I waited too long to pursue a chargeback so NY is keeping my money. I got ripped off I tell ya! Apologies for getting off topic.

no3Ljm Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Just now, Miles_Wolf said: Paypal. I see. I think most online shops take the payment instantly thru Paypal. Whereas, credit cards on the other hand will be charged once they received the supply. Thanks @Miles_Wolf! Quote

I used Paypal for the protection they give you in case there's some problem. Recently I had a problem with Nippon Yasan, and Paypal returned me the money with no problems. Quote

Sanity is Optional Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Also depends on the release. web exclusives are almost always pay up front, while normal releases are by retailer. The ones selling at msrp are almost always pay on release for those. Quote

Made my order. Quote
Dirtyboy Posted August 1, 2021 Posted August 1, 2021 Why is the AX costing 25,300 JPY, surely the extra stand shouldnt cost that much extra? Quote

borgified Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 So far Luna has their own pre-order up. Others suppliers should have it up very soon, as there's less than 8 hours left before the crap fest begins. Quote

Mommar Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 I'm still debating if I should just go for it with Luna now or wait. I really don't want to be up at 1 am tonight. Quote
seti88 Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Sometimes i wish bandai would just release all of the variants at once and let us pick which to order...hahahaha.. pesky waiting around.... Quote
borgified Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 @Mac - Hopefully that if you put in an order at HLJ, make sure that they don't chop your order out as they did for Chucky's 31e when it was up (they had very limited amounts of the DX 31e). They might have changed it after that. Quote
no3Ljm Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Tonight's the night, huh? I'm sitting this one out so I wish everyone good luck. Quote
borgified Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Less than 5 hours and still "Bo Diddly" for those getting it at other suppliers?? Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Just under 3 hours, it's at 4pm JST, right? That's midnight PST, and 3AM EST. Quote

Chronocidal Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Curious why they put it at 5pm instead of 4? Didn't the official announcement say 4pm? Quote
Saviant Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 I just ordered one with lunapark, really don't feel like fighting to get one Quote
borgified Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 That's what it says @PsYcHoDyNaMiX. I looked at it again just to make sure. Quote

Chronocidal Posted August 2, 2021 Posted August 2, 2021 Well let's see how Luna Park's reliability is. I might still try and grab one from another vendor to see what happens, but this release is a good one to test the waters on, since I'm not going to be horribly disappointed if I can't get one. Quote
