Why is it so expensive everywhere else?

I dont know. Im getting mine for 70 (GCU & Discount Certificate) and still feel like it's a lot. I would feel worse about 100 and wouldnt go over 100 either.

 

[Ludens]

Why is it so expensive everywhere else?

I don't know. On Gamestop.de it was 99.99€, the price suggested by Konami. In Italy all retailers apply the 139.98€ price.

 

[Boke1879]

Still no update from US best buy. I'm hoping there is at least some progress by the end of the day.

If there is no progress by day's end I'll 1just cancel and preorder on PSN. I have some psn credit so I won't even pay full price. Still kinda sucks because I do want a physical version of the game

 

[MoneyLaunderer]

My order seems to be OK for now, but I'm assuming I won't know for sure until early next week if it'll be delayed or not. What a cluster. Between Arkham Knight's Batmobile Edition getting canned a week before release and now this whole issue, why can't CE's come without issue? Irritating.

 

[Deleted member 57681]

I'm glad I pre-ordered the superior steelbook and not the nano version of the Japanese CE.

Huh I just now noticed that there's a KojiPro logo on the spine. Hope that's not only for the render.

 

[darthbob]

The suspense is killing me.

man that steelbook makes me want to weep I want the shinkawa steelbook ><

 

[despire]

Luckily they are selling the steelbook on it's own (5&#8364 here in Finland. Well, at least in one shop. Ordered just the steelbook from them because I'm getting the game from where I work.

Edit: I have searched through a bunch of stores, but can't find it.

Do they ship internationally?

 

[bananafactory]

Welp my regular edition is preparing for shipment but no movement on my CE

Interesting. I guess that means that amazon will ship the regular Day 1 edition of the game with a seperate steelbook, meaning it won't have a sleeve around it. That... kinda sucks.

Well, I found it. http://www.vpd.fi/metal-gear-solid-v-the-phantom-pain-steelbook.html
Don't know why I didn't see it on my first try.

Wow glad I saw this now. Probably going to cancel my CE preorder, that looks horrible. I knew the arm wasn't full scale, but that thing looks tiny.

No international shipping? DAMNNNN

 

[Silent-blades]

Just curious why there are no other media sources picking up on this missing dlc fiasco. Figure IGN would have reported something.

They say that they can do international shipping, but you have to contact them before you make your order.

I'm going to show this vid to my friend in case he wants to cancel his too. I guess the hand was never going to be bigger than the box it came in but the reality is it's just not big enough.

My big thing is the Diamond Dogs box is just a cardboard box. I mean I didn't expect the game to come in a leather trunk, but something in between would've been nice.

Damn google translate won't get me through that

Maybe I can do something to help out gaffers who want to try ordering steelbook from that store.

Hooow ?

It is not specified. Through e-mail, I guess.

Aaaah, I want to buy it so much ;___;

 

[komplanen]

vpd@vpd.fi is their email. Email them and ask.

I would assume people who work at VPD are very fluent in english since most finnish people are.

This is true. I'm sure you will get a reply from them.

Yes this is it. Sorry I didn't reply earlier.

 

[Grady]

This happened to me with bloodborne ce from amazon. Went from release day to a month after release the day before the game came out. I was pissed. Hopefully same doesn't happen to me here.

 

[BTails]

Another update for us poor amazon.ca bretheren. Take with a MASSIVE grain of salt, but the customer service rep I was chatting with this morning told me: "I checked and see from my side that we have already contacted the supplier to get the stock of this item and we're expecting to receive the stock soon from them."

So... You're saying there's a chance?

Spoiler

Still not expecting it for another 2 weeks

Isn't the box faux leather though?

sitting in the same boat "in progress"

 

[Golgo 13]

Same here. Someone in this thread said that their previous Best Buy release date delivery orders usually processed the weekend before.... So I'm still holding out hope :/

 

[Ran rp]

It's half-scale

Goddamn, what an incompetent bunch, they had since march to get their shit together. Now they won't deliver and won't even notify you...WTF really.

Tempting, but I'd like to know the full price for international purchase(don't feel like writing the email on my phone right now).

 

[dolabla]

My order on Amazon seems to be fine so far, but just noticed my Playstation 20th anniversary headphones say:

Delivery estimate: We need a little more time to provide you with a good estimate. We'll notify you via e-mail as soon as we have an estimated delivery date.

 

[Nattan]

Tempting, but I'd like to know the full price for international purchase(don't feel like writing the email on my phone right now).

Yeah, maybe people who are contacting them can share their full prices here to give some estimate.

 

[Armaly]

Tempting, but I'd like to know the full price for international purchase(don't feel like writing the email on my phone right now).

Well I emailed them about ordering two so a friend and I can save on the international shipping costs. I'll post the price as soon as I get a reply.

 

[Bikram]

I may cancel my best buy order if they don't ship today. I was getting the CE mainly for steel book and the blu ray with documentary and steel book. Is the hand made of plastic? I saw the video but couldn't listen since at work.

 

[GhostTrick]

Well I emailed them about ordering two so a friend and I can save on the international shipping costs. I'll post the price as soon as I get a reply.

I emailed them too. Now waiting.

 

[SenseOffender]

My status with Best Buy still says "Pre-ordered". I placed the order right when the link went up too.

Same.

 

[Devilinthiscity]

COME ON!

 

[wiibomb]

I emailed them too. Now waiting.

do you think you could add an extra for me? and ship it to my address in US when delivered? I think that would save on shipping too
