shinegamix Posted December 28, 2012 i dont understand what they are saying. so do i have to lottery or not? making my triumphant return Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finnleo Posted December 28, 2012 i dont understand what they are saying. so do i have to lottery or not? Same as always. If you want any of the dolls, you lotto. If you want any of the items, you wait for the click wars to begin on the 12th. Im a bit fuzzy on the facts, but I think this is the first when the international site has decided to have the lotto this much in advance from the actual after event date, hence the big notion of changed procedures. EDIT: The notion on the doll section about sales on the 12th probably means they are waiting to see if they have any of the models for sale at that time.

Sporkaroni Posted December 28, 2012 Hopefully Volks USA gives us the results of their lottery soon, so we know if we should enter the international one or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJStarstryker Posted December 29, 2012 The notion on the doll section about sales on the 12th probably means they are waiting to see if they have any of the models for sale at that time. The after event at the physical stores in Japan is on the 12th. They're guaranteed to have some at each store, just the amount in stock and the number of people who show up is what determines if you'll be able to get one via that route or not. Are you ready to rock? ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aquilla429 Posted December 30, 2012 I've entered the International Lottery for Melty. So far I've only placed one entry, the original plan was to place multiple entries, but I’m not sure now. I don’t know why I freak out about this lottery entry thing so much, I did it with Sakuya too. I think it’s because Danny is buying her for me. I have no problems buying a doll for myself, but when it’s Danny buying, I always get cold feet and begin doubting if I should go for it *sigh* My new domain and blog is now based on tumblr, you can find me at http://www.aquilla429.com https://twitter.com/aquilla429 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sporkaroni Posted December 30, 2012 Placed a lottery entry for Aoko, hopefully I'll get lucky with this one since I failed with Volks USA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyaera Posted December 30, 2012 Order has been placed for Melty! I lost through USA, so this is my chance. ^^ Good luck to everyone entering this round! I'm really nervous, but I just love her stuff- so I'm hoping I'll be able to bring her home.

Juanita Posted December 30, 2012 Stupid question perhaps, but how long does it usually take from the end of the AE till Volks ships out the DDs? I've found some information on the shipping of Creamy Mami and Yu, but nothing about the other dolls or the sumika items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyaera Posted December 30, 2012 Aside from Creamy Mami and Yu, the other items (DD) ship out within a week I believe. ^^ Nothing here ~ Left the Hobby Previously Loved: Rise, Mariko, Yuki M., Haruka N., Aoko, Rin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DivinitaAria Posted December 30, 2012 I hope everyone has good luck in the AE and brings home their desired girl Rise - Rise // Rise #2 - Rise // Ritsuko - 2B // Momo - M.O.M.O. // Nayuki -Mikuru // Romi - 09 // Makoto - Sailor Jupiter // Mikasa - DD07 (WIP) Waiting on: DDH-25 for custom Akechi 🥰 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juanita Posted December 30, 2012 Within one week? Oh that would be so awesome. So with a little bit of luck my first DD could be here at the end of January Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mistyaera Posted December 30, 2012 Ah, I just double checked. It's guaranteed within 14 days to ship out according to the website. ^-^ So it should still be the end of January.

SakuraSylph Posted December 31, 2012 When is japanese lottery for japanese people?XD it's my last chance, I guess. Yeah, it's the same schedule as the International after-event lottery. 28 December - 7 Jan, with results sent out on 8 Jan. You should really watch that web site though (either JP or overseas version as appropriate). In addition to the lottery that is going on now, there will be a click-war style release for Aoko/Melty/etc on the morning of the 12th Japan time. This is the same time that the after-event is being held at the physical stores, and it means you now have two different chances to acquire a doll via Volks International. That's what the "changed methods" mentioned in the OP is about. SakuraSylph Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
