Really? When I did it, I made a deposit, and then they withdrew the deposit seconds after. I'm guessing that's when they check whether the deposit money exists.
Now to wait until July...
::edit:: what kind of shipping did you guys get? I put Sea Mail, but now I've been seeing some people say that its only good for big, sturdy packages, since they may get banged up on the way to the states. I wanna chance small package, but Ive no idea how much the thing weighs. You guys think fedex or ems is better?

sekihoutai · 2009-05-18, 22:32

I put my shipping as EMS.
Also will this pass through US Customs with no problems? Its my first time ordering VNs.

I've ordered eroge and doujin that were very risque and they got through customs fine.

Don't they have regular old airmail? That's what I would use if I was ordering from abroad. I definitely wouldn't use seamail though, it's incredibly slow and, yeah, no one really cares about it. No insurance or anything either, which isn't so good for an expensive purchase like this.

Bleh, wish JAA had SAL.

Does Himeya's price include shipping or not? I'm excited; this will be my first VN!

.

Well, using weights of random substitute items on the Net, I'll guess the box will be 2.0~2.5 kg. FedEx will be cheaper, even with insurance. I think I'll change the shipping to that.
Anyone ordering using JAA's shiping only service?

Spoiler for rant:

If you are staying in the Middle East, you might have problems. Otherwise, I don't think any other country's customs would have nothing better to do that to search through every parcel.

締め切り時間を過ぎましたので、受付を終了致しました。
たくさんのご注文、誠にありがとうございました。

Because the deadline has passed, we don't accept any more orders. We had a lot of orders--thank you very much.

If you missed it, good luck on Yahoo Auctions!

Kudryavka · 2009-05-19, 23:07

Well that's it, the preorders are closed now. And no extension this time.

SaintessHeart · 2009-05-19, 23:10

I hope there will be extra content for the Tomoyo After........*hint hint*

Kudryavka · 2009-05-19, 23:57

Extra content compared to the original PC version? Yes.
Compared to the PSP/PS2 versions (other than the CGs being PC resolution)? Probably not.

yezhanquan · 2009-05-28, 08:22

Well, for a non Key anime/VN watcher, I probably should have a look at this box.

Proto · 2009-05-28, 08:53

It's a limited edition thing which could only be ordered on request during a limited time... unfortunately that time is now over so it may be difficult to get one..

yezhanquan · 2009-05-28, 09:04

It's a shame then, especially since the editions are the "clean" ones.

Maybe the included T-shirt is like the one that sold for over a million yen?

sekihoutai · 2009-06-25, 14:39

i want that shirt.

I assumed that the shirt included will be one from the 10th anniversary festival that can be found here.

Both of those shirts are very cute. But I'm wondering since the 2nd OP said not to wear the shirt outside. I thought it would be risque or something.

prnoct90 · 2009-06-28, 15:44

Um, I ordered this and I was wondering if anyone knows what the release date is?

sekihoutai · 2009-06-28, 18:32

I don't think an exact date is mentioned but it ships in July.
