Got my package Looks really good, awesome work Vic
I got mine in canada! How do I see what variant? Where's the a or b or whatever printed
while victor did mention the box is just a "shipping" box... is it really though? When you buy an LE version of a game, normally there is a box that contains all the LE items. I don't see how this is any different so to me, it isn't a shipping box but a box that is holding everything to be "sold". That is just how i see it anyway.
Got mine.
Why the fuck did they put the shipping label on top of the art on the box?
VGP only got the G variant iirc. It should be the last letter of the product code on the spine of the game case.
Here's how the package looks after German customs and postal service are done with it ;_;
Not bitching, just thought I'd show it.
Somehow the package only took 7 days to get here, that's very fast.
That is... painful
Couldn't he have done some kind of outer cardboard cover, or something removable to prevent that?
Brazil is one of the high theft/loss countries where I'm considering an outer box. It's typically a high theft/loss country on the last few games we did, and this will be an even bigger target. There are only a handful of countries in this class we've had problems with in the past, and we're already losing money on international shipping due to the weight, so I only want to add even more weight if absolutely necessary.

Nov 2015, i chose standard shipping from Amazon and i didn't receive my package. Finally Amazon have to resend another package to me after 2 months.Well that's because you've got standard shipping from Gaijinworks matched against Amazon's Expedited Shipping. Of course the times are gonna be radically different between those.
Just gotta wait it out.
i didn't expect Standard Shipping to be that slow when i ordered on August. Next time i will avoid Standard Shipping.Everyone loses if you compare them to amazon shipping lol
please note that Summon Night L.E. was my 1st time using Standard Shipping. i was too broke on August.i didn't expect Standard Shipping to be that slow when i ordered on August. Next time i will avoid Standard Shipping.
My custom probably thought it's an adult toy and checking it throughly...My order arrived in Germany already, so it's most likely your local customs causing the delay.
how do you check that you have received a package at the post office when you don't have a tracking code? The post office staff recognized your name and bundle all your mail together?Just went to the post office to pick up my Oddworld copy, found out that this was waiting for me there. It turns out that there are tracking codes, but for some reason, we've not been given access to.

All mail shipped by USPS internationally now has a tracking code since about three years ago -- a friend in the US told me they don't even give the option to send something untracked anymore.
I do wish I'd know the code for mine because my game hasn't turned up yet; it may be stuck on my country's customs but they haven't been kind enough to inform me yet.
You must be lucky that both packages uses the same shipping company. Amazon standard shipping, Aramex doesn't have tracking (Nov 2015).When I went to pick Oddworld up, he checked the system by name instead of tracking code, that's when he found two packages instead.
is GW shipping not that reliable?I love how the GW threads all seem to have more posts about getting the game than actually playing it, heh.
Shizuka, for your case, would the post office eventually send the package (SN5) to you if you didn't pick it up from the post?officeis GW shipping not that reliable?
It's not that, it's just that more people seem to be interested in getting the collectible(s) than the game itself.
The game was discussed when it came out on PSN
I know that, but compared to the number of people who bought it... like three of us were playing CoH2 when it came out.
GAF generally seems like a bad place to discuss super niche games. Some threads are lucky to pass 5 pages . This one at least has the shipping to keep it active
GAF is great for general discussion, and probably one of the better places for more obscure games. For ultra obscure/ancient you might need to go to dedicated forums about them, or a community leaning fully that direction, but yeah it's not really BAD here for niche games with a few exceptions.I disagree actually, some very niche games that I can't get a single reply about get a lot of discussion here. Gaijinworks doesn't seem to be so lucky, though.

For some statistics, there've been 118 posters; 67 have more one post, and maybe... five people have been playing the game, give or take.

No, it'd get sent back to Gaijinworks and God knows how long it'd take for the whole story to reach a happy ending if that happened.
I've received a Royal Mail "oi pay us money" note today
That parcel originated in Reading, CA. Did this?
Which definition of "literally" do you want to use?I hope it literally says that.
Excellent, thank you.Sounds like Gaijinworks to me.
