Volks JP at Magical Mirai 2013 Hatsune Miku Event

Recommended Posts

Minty

Volks sent out another email (to full payees) about the regular Miku pre-orders.

Those who placed orders from October 2013: We are currently planning to deliver your pre-orders by middle March 2015.

I hope that includes me, since I ordered in November.

 

It's nearly February; not too much longer to go!

...if all goes well.

So apparently for those of who did a down payment we have until February 13th to pay Miku off in full.

 

My husband isn't going to like this since they said Late march is when they'd get her, and now we have a short window to pony up. scratch that, he planned for that early date phewww

 

Volks should have been open to let people make payments throughout the whole year, but oh well

Can anyone that paid for Miku in full via VolksUSA let me know what the shipping was that they charged you in full...?

 

Because at the time of the original deposit their VolksUSA store auto charged 23$ for shipping... now when you take the items to checkout it adds another 20.26$ to the total. I just want to make sure of this before I email VolksUSA.

Volks should have refunded you the shipping cost ($23.57) after you placed your initial order. For me, they charged shipping, and then refunded that amount a few days later. Maybe check your credit card / debit card records?

Did anyone pre-order the limited Miku items from Volks USA (hands, body suits)? My order is completely gone from my history and I didn't even know until today. I sent them an email about it but I know it could be a long time before I hear anything.

Good lord that's frightening. Sorry to hear but no. I want to check on my actual pre ordered miku now, again, cuz she still hasn't arrived and they told me February but I haven't been notified of her being sent out yet it's hard waiting a year and a half...


OMG WHERE ARE THEY ALL COMING FROM?!?!

Yeah I was gonna say... OMG WHAT I GET HER "EARLY"?!?!

 

...that's the reason why I paid on the very last day... XD I figured wth, it doesn't matter if they're all going to be shipped at the end of March.

Yeah, I just read the mail myself. I'm definitely not going to preorder anything from Volks USA again.

 

They really should offer some kind of compensation for this.

I heard that the negotiations fell through earlier on the news but I haven't been keeping up with well with the situation myself. Regarding my earlier post, I heard back from Volks USA and they do still have my order confirmed and explained that *maybe* my history vanished since the items were limited and aren't in the system any longer. Still, it's pretty scary to think about any order getting lost. I imagine it's going to be a long wait for these.

Congrats, I love how that blue and white wig looks on her!

 

 

I got my Miku in October, but her wig was defective... after lots and lots of waiting Volks finally sent a replacement, I'm so relieved. Well, it hasn't arrived yet, but I'm relieved they sent a replacement and didn't just say the old one was good enough. Communication was so slow...

I keep getting excited thinking that she'll finally be here, then talking myself out of it just in case she gets delayed again.

It was changed to "late March" back in Feb. But it hasn't changed again since then so...

Is it possible their site closing on Monday is bc they're getting ready to ship out a lot of Mikus and then post the ones that are left over from non payers? Kinda hoping so.

I just got the notice that they're finally going to ship out the last back of Mikus.

 

Orders will be shipped out in the order they have been received.

 

Wonder how long it'll take them to get to the end of line... since my order was right before pre-orders ended. Will I get Miku before April? Doubting it...

It's very diffucult to encourage non dollfie owning friends to indulge themselves in the hobby when 1. Prices are quite steep 2. They see the people who are loyal dollfie owners being trolled for living in North america. ^_^;

 

Please volks! Deliver unto us our prized girls!

 

That being said, taking bets on who arrives first, miku or Jesus XD

It's an extreme luxury hobby so not everyone got money. Pretty much all large scale dolls are expensive but the standard dolls are at least reasonable from a Doll collecting perspective. ^^;

 

I don't understand why so many collectors here think Volks dislikes the US or treats it poorly. O.o It's my understanding the Volks USA shop is just an extra dedicated shop that only US customers can use. You also have Volks international site as well, which many US customers did use and now have their Miku's. There's been many times when I'd have loved to have bought something from the US store particularly during the years when everything was 33% cheaper than in the Volks JP/Int store. That said I do hope your Miku arrives soon, but I don't think it's entirely Volk's fault as most US based stores take a few extra months to get stock in from Japan which has always been the case with the Volks US store.
