Dan the man, two questions regarding the Spring Clearance Sale:

1. What is the first press bonus extra for UVERworld - Shaka Beach Laka Laka La - [Regular Edition]?

2. Is there any tiny slim chance you would still have the poster in stock for Dir en grey - Ryojoku no Ame [Regular Edition], because I know the single previously came with the poster.

My friend Dan: Good for all of you that work very hard. Rest very well!!

Bonus: Which is the national holiday in Japan?

Also, did you have some sort of promotion where if you order some S.P.R. item or music item and you get a free issue of V!NYL SYNDICATE? Clarify on that because I've never received one before.
by wohjai : Mar 20,2008
wohjai> the first press for UVERworld is a serial-numbered flyer. As for Dir, I'm not sure but I doubt it since we don't seem to have details on it in our database. I'm at home and can only see what's available online right now, so I'll need to confirm tomorrow.

Ken007> Thanks! Today's the Spring Solstice!

wohjai round 2> You get V!NYL SYNDICATE with any SEX POT order, but only while we have supplies of the magazine in stock. It's run four times a year, and we tend to run out of them quick so that's probably why you haven't received one.
by Dan : Mar 20,2008
wohjai>Confirmed. It looks like we didn't receive any sort of first press bonus for "Ryojoku no Ame."
by Dan : Mar 21,2008
Dan, approximately when is the April issue of V!NYL SYNDICATE going to be released at CDJapan? Then I might place another Sex Pot order around that time so I can take a stab at the free magazine. I see that the previous issue for January 2008 was released here quite early on December 12, 2007.

Also, would you be able to stock any Bleach figurines from the Hueco Mundo chapter with the arrancar in your anime collectibles section in the future?
by wohjai : Mar 22,2008
I think I saw them prepping V!NYL SYNDICATE last time I was at work, so we might already have it in. I'll confirm on monday when I'm back at work.

As for goods, no idea. We're contracted to another company for our goods so it's really up to them what we carry for right now. I don't know what our plans are in the future, but I can definitely see us stocking more brands if the goods section takes off.

Hello again my friend Dan.
Excuse me for this question but, did you tell me please, why takes so long that Nagaoka products become available to be sent because these are delaying my order and I am losing my INFINITE patience. From where you order to bring: HOKKAIDO... or OKINAWA...?

You take a good day!
by Ken007 : Mar 25,2008
Hi Ken007,
I'm sorry to hear about the delay. Unfortunately, we have to special order the Nagaoka Brand items directly from Nagaoka themselves, and it looks like the sleeves we ordered last week haven't come in yet (they should be here tomorrow, though!). We do try to keep them in stock, but as special orders they're harder to track at our shipping facility and sometimes items get misplaced. Again, we apologize for the delay.

But you write at a good time. I don't know if you're interested but we did just get a new Risa Niigaki photobook!

by Dan : Mar 25,2008
Oh! Dan.Thank you for the explanation, I can now be a little more relaxed.

And thanks also for the photobook of Risa(curious=I have to be in the books page and did not see it). This time I see the preorder deadline for not to commit the same mistake as with Eri`s book.(Watch for RisakoŽ´s special book at end of month, Dan!!)

Ah! another thing: this banner of "Goods" is new or already exist before?, because neither note!!
by Ken007 : Mar 25,2008
Goods is all new! We just put it up last night around midnight so I haven't had a chance to write an article about it yet. Will be up today though ;)
by Dan : Mar 25,2008
ah Dan, did you get the confirmation on the V!NYL SYNDICATE magazine yet? Are they up and ready cause I have a shipment in place that's about to be shipped.
by wohjai : Mar 25,2008
Ah sorry! I was planning on getting back to you right after I checked the affiliate sites today . . . only for that to take me until 10:30 tonight. The new V!NYL SYNDICATE is supposed to come out on the first of April, so we should get it soon after that (unfortunately, that means it probably won't be shipped with your order). However, I've also been notified that sometimes editing takes longer than normal so that date might get pushed back a couple of days.

If you're really dying to see what's inside, SEX POT also published a special, for-cost extra to commemorate the mag's third anniversary that is still available (front/back stories: An Cafe/12012):

Oh man, I just combined several items to my giant order with SEXPOT items so that it will ship out 4/09/08 along with the plastic tree single release I preordered...just so I can get this magazine! Dan, put in a good word for me and see if you can reserve a copy for me ;)

I have a story for you. I got my shipment yesterday for the S.P.R. tank top I ordered and to my disappointment I took it out and it was way too small. I must've got the measurements mixed up or something :( But I ordered the big border line one before and it fit...maybe you can label on that page that it's all girls sizing...
It looked like it was large enough for a medium-sized teddy bear...and I had to pay customs on it too! I ended up having to surrender it to my sister as her upcoming birthday present.

Note: The Heart Station "First Press: SOLD OUT" button seems to have disappeared.
by wohjai : Mar 26,2008
oh one more thing, I thought you had a new gift card (guy with the umbrella) for gift orders? The sheet I got was a plain yellow sheet with balloons and musical clip art with a "greetings" message at the top. Did you already change it?
by wohjai : Mar 26,2008
Ooh, I'm sorry to hear about your order! I've never actually tried on any SEX POT items, but reading customer comments it seems like a lot of their items verge on the small side.

As for Hikaru Utada, we actually had to remove the button because we were getting this weird error with the system where it looked like we were sold out of posters even though we weren't. Now we actually are sold out, but we might be able to get more so we'll fix the button as soon as we hear from the manufacturer.

And unfortunately, yes we've switched the gift cards temporarily. We try to design them based on season, and it was a little weird having a snowy winter card out when the cherry blossoms are blooming. We'll have a new design for spring in a couple of weeks I think.
