My page on findmyorder.com is all screwed up since the orders were placed by digital river reps, one of which misspelled my email address. Only my August order says cancelled on bathe invoice page, though.

Have you tried putting your order numbers in the UPS track by reference? If it finds something you'll be getting them.
I can totally understand having moments of 'calm down, people!' reading through the thread, so I get where you're coming from. I do agree Namco should be far more concerned with the people who had six months of thinking they were getting this than with me, for what it's worth, it's just that I believe their botching of the issue extended further than the initial oversell (DR is on my list forever due to whole batch of 24th orders shipping.)
Did you order all 3 on the 17th? When they were one per person? You had to at some point expect two people were going to end up screwed there.
That's... discouraging. Have you tried using the order numbers from the cancellation e-mails through UPS? Otherwise I think you're stuck calling DR, which sucks.

then why have you ever considered putting it on ebay in the 1st place?
go ahead and check my post history.
karma's a bitch.
have you considered the possibility that there is a fan who missed out on the initial preorder, and couldn't get on the 'false' second wave, but decided not to disappoint his/her nephew but paying extra on ebay???
please stop putting your own foot into your own mouth.

i've never complained about losing any profit i might've made from ebay. i'm complaining about losing my OWN wiz ed and not the wiz ed of others, so kindly shut your mouth for painting me as if i'm even concerned about what i'd get from ebay. again, don't put your words in my mouth. you're speaking as if my motivation for complaining is that i missed a $100 profit. do you get that now or do i have to drill it into your skull? don't put words into my mouth, and don't misrepresent me or my words. who are you to speak for me?

You need to stop being so angry about this, or at least take it to the Facebook complaint thread. I for one am beyond tired of your bitching and moaning. What do you not understand about "they didn't have to do ANYTHING for you but in fact, did"
Get over it!

And you need to back off of frequency, he has tried to talk you off this cliff for a while now and has a point besides!
And just because it happens on an internet store doesn't make it guaranteed. Jesus you are dense!

how much did you pay for it? yeah, fishpond actually emailed me giving me a deadline about the stuff in my basket. the amount of negative reviews for fishpond is just stunning.

dont be sad, it only has 2 tracks , yes only 2 !!!!
the golden coin was the real deal , not to mention the fancy packaging and colorful art
So when are we supposed to be getting this second $20 off code and strategy guide email? Monday, I'm guessing?
Also, since I'm one of the people who had their first order cancelled and used the promo link on the 23rd/24th, any idea if the coupon+guide would even be available to us?

has anyone just sold the WE box by itself? i want to be *that* guy.

Yeah, that's why I'm not really sure.
Probably not since you have a order and are getting the WE.
Man this is selling for twice the price on ebay...so glad I got in while I did with amazon.
I was looking forward to this game ever since it was announced, really loved the idea of a real book coming with it. but then went off it after the DS one seemed lacklustre and childish.
Then recent GAF hype convinced me to preorder and now I cant wait to play it.

Well, if you get one it is definitively an error. But with how bad they handle things, it might be an error they can make.

Waiting for my Wizard's Edition to come on Tuesday! But if anyone thinks something is fishy about UPS because of something like this and they're also waiting...
">>> Not all tracking information is available at this time. Please try again later."
It's not just you. I'm not really sure what's going on but tracking info isn't available atm.

Probably some UPS server maintenance or whatever. I'd worry more if this were prolonged (and you failed to get your game when it should've come). I don't expect any unpleasant surprises though, last I saw it was in Texas, and it'd take the weather being FUBAR for a snow in. Maybe a bad thunderstrom, but I doubt it'd hold it up TOO long.
EDIT: With that said thunderstorms look to be a very real possibility. Hope they shipped it from there today or tomorrow!

When all is said and done, what do you think the future market for sealed Wizard's Editions will be? Say, for example, five years from now?
My guess is that there will still be enough sealed copies floating around out there that, five years removed from the hype/excitement/hysteria, they won't command the $400+ they are going for right now.

There will likely still be some sealed ones floating around for that price. Sealed NISA LEs can go for several hundred dollars.
I wonder if the WE is even more limited than some NISA LEs actually...Undoubtedly. NISA LEs can usually be bought up to a month or so before release, maybe even after (I got both Atelier Rorona and Atelier Totori's LEs this way), though that may've been a set amount printed to burn through versus having preorders to figure out how many to make then making that number. That would still make this SEEM more valuable, even if it turned out the Atelier games had half the copies produced or whatever (doubt it given both of those LEs were bought at GameStop stores).There will likely still be some sealed ones floating around for that price. Sealed NISA LEs can go for several hundred dollars.

Really? Wow. Maybe I'm overestimating the number of Wizard's Edition owners who will keep their copies sealed.

Always see them even after release.
:/ Anyone want to sell their coin?
I'm so tempted to search for it but searching for "Ni no Kuni coin" sound kind of sad.
EDIT: Okay I did it but got no result.

It depends on the title, doesn't it? The Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory LE releases in March and is completely sold out. http://store.nisamerica.com/Games/NeptuniaV-PS3-Limited-Edition
Same thing happened to me, it looks like.
I still had the tracking info from when it was normal in my browser, so I've taken a screenshot. We'll see what happens. It was supposed to be delivered on Monday by end of day, and if it isn't, well!
CuthbertAllgoodz
Member
Yea and I usually see them at normal price for a bit after release but not for forever. Totori and Meruru LE go for about 90-100$ right now(from what I could find quickly).

Just checked my tracking information, and the same thing has happened to mine. Something on UPS's end, perhaps?

Same here, there must be a temporary problem with UPS tracking.

Newegg has it in stock.
Foiled by no international shipping. Oh well, I should really use the money to buy Dead Space 3 + Guidebook instead.
And LOL @ that BOX ONLY listing.

Yeah, this is going to end well. There's always someone who doesn't read. No matter how cheap the listing is.
Also, couldn't pick up my package from UPS today, so it sits another day.
