LOL, you gotta love that. Such customer unfriendly policies suck. Well, you can always do a chargeback.

Lol- yeah. Weird how the "suppliers can't find access to stock" and the date was pushed back- but I don't have a say so on the item anymore. They were also $13x after shipping, too (probably air mail at that).

Eh- if it actually pans out I'll just probably pass it on to someone that wants it I suppose- might be easier than fighting the chargeback or dealing with those asswipes.

My LE shipped yesterday :D I ordered that damn thing on Nov 1st and finally get to have it. it's been more than half a year of waiting on that order just to have it canceled, and then not canceled at the very last second. that shenanigance probably gave someone an ulcer. half a year of such cereal drama can do such a thing

The LE of Deathsmiles doesn't really seem worth it given that it is nearly double the price of the standard edition at most shops. :o

I got it for 108.00

what is it going for?
Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?

I paid less than $100 for my LE copy shipped to the UK (£68 in total :))

I've seen some LE's in the UK selling for around £110 + shipping (about $150)

Not since the SNES days have I paid this much for imports.

agrees, I'd rather two copies of the game than an OST for that price. It's nice to own special goodies and extras but if its going for as much as the game I'd rather pass.

This whole LE thing brings back my thoughts on how people spend 100$+ on Cave posters. Gees that cost even more than the console ports but I guess if you have money to burn then whose stopping you :)

Hm. I think there's a bit too much hystery going around. Ebay is full of LE (I've seen 7 so far) and they all go at around 100€, some more, some less. Now, it's not cheap, but it's not all that expensive as well. I've seen a lot of games going for way more.

Dunno, maybe I'm missing something?
Alas, Ikaruga is going...

Undesired, unwanted them...
What makes them go?

cave + shmup = $

cave + shmup x (lolis x pedophiles) = demand

Exactly :D
Or better, why is everybody going absolutely nuts to find a LE? There's plenty out for the grabs and they ain't even a total ripoff.
