That was, what, 30 mins tops the moment the preorder went online??

Going to be a sweet, new addition to anyone's collection.

Or, just another pretty penny for resellers.

Anyways, who's got them?
>>
>>332611707
resellers or not, square don't care, they already won shit ton of money
>>
would've preferred a model of the car tbqh
>>
Bought one to resell.

Games gonna be shit, but I can atleast make some shekels off retards.
>>
>square enix store exclusive

Fucking hate that bullshit. Just release it to BestBuy and Amazon so I can get 20% off at the start and not wait 1 year to buy it for 30 bucks off of your website.
>>
>>332612242
The point of it being on their site is to save money.

Best Buy & Amazon take a cut.
>>
>>332611989
Fuck off asshole
>>
So that'd come to $450 after taxes and shipping to my local currency.

I think I'd rather waste money on a PSVR instead of that if I had to spend that much on a single useless thing.
>>
>>332612361
Problem is it doesn't save the consumer money. Just Square Enix.

Despite having moved away from Digital River, their website and sales are still a shit show and I want nothing to do with it.

I'll sell you a copy if you want.Just have to add a separate processing fee.

>SE drone this mad

The game is shit, but retards like you will eat it up.
>>
>8,100,000 shekels in less than an hour

>>332611707
Does it come with an apology for making people wait over 10 years?
>>
>>332612818
Geez dude, two copies is enough. Three if you wanna keep one.
>>
>>332612968
More than that, remember all the people who are paying $60 for the normal version.
>>
>>332612968
Who knows, shit isn't charged until 10 days before release.
>>
>>332611707

This is going to be another one of those games that makes a ton of money but people are going to immensely regret when it turns out the game sucks. It's just practically written in stone at this point.
>>
>>332617923

It's amazing how gullible people are for a little marketing PR and hyping. Clearly nobody has learned anything from the past 15 years or so, least of all Square.
>>
>>332611707
44 mins. My friend informed me around 12:44 when he complained he couldnt get one.
>>
Yeah I'm staying far away from this one for sure now. The whole buying to resell kind of seems like short selling assuming the demand is still going to be there when the time comes.
>>
>>332617989
>least of all Square.
Yeah I feel so bad for them. All these people buying their game, they really fucked up
>>
>>332612637

What do you expect from a shitty Japanese company. This is how they do business now. They make EA Games look down right decent in comparison and Square Enix are on the whiter side of Japanese gaming companies these days compared to say Konami that's the scary part. Really I blame consumers more, just so immensely gullible rather than waiting and seeing. If a game takes 10 years to come out and it still barely seems like they know what the core concept is entirely a year or so before release or that we're just barely starting to hear about these things now you're fucking retarded if you put down nearly $500 on that product before looking at the initial Corporate PR free reaction too it.
>>
>>332618201

Well they stand to benefit the most from it obviously since people have really limited short term memories. Clearly there's no lesson to be learned here from them since they can just do the sorts of things that landed them in hot water before and make it all go away in a couple years with some carefully planned PR hype and enough stupid people.
>>
i got 2 for resell and bought 1 deluxe edition for myself
>>332612818
that's really dumb because they'll most likely flag your shit as a reseller/scalper and cancel your orders


i already put up the ebay listing and people already bidding/trying to buyout through msg's

>>332618052
price will only sky rocket from here,

and this isn't the first time i've done this, i did with ni no kuni limited editions too, and man did people pay a shitload for htat
>>
>>332618515
Are you fucking retarded or something?
>>
>>332612818
So you were just charged .50 for preorder not full price?
>>
Hope you guys are happy that most of the budget was spent on Aaron Paul and not on the actual game.
>>
>>332618628
They don't charge full price until it ships.
>>
>>332617923
The platinum demo makes me feel like this game might actually be worth playing. So how is it written in stone that the game will be bad?
>>
>>332618560

No, I'm not wasting my money on something before I know it's good. Given recent history with Square Enix I have no reason to want to preorder anything from them
>>
Did the Deluxe edition for PS4 on Amazon already sell out to or have they not listed it yet?
http://www.amazon.com/Final-Fantasy-XV-Deluxe-PlayStation-4/dp/B01DJPA9YE/ref=sr_1_2?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1459408323&sr=1-2&keywords=final+fantasy+xv+deluxe
>>
>>332611707
Glad I ordered at work then. I had a feeling it would sell out quickly at only 30k units, especially since I think it's 30k period, not 30k for each region (since it's a worldwide release).

Everything about the game has me hyped. The Platinum Demo combat is barebones, sure, but it also doesn't include what ED did that will be in the final game like skills and group attacks so I'm not up in arms about it that bad like everyone here seems to be.
>>
>>332619536
it was exclusive to the SE store I thougth
>>
Got 50 cent hold or whatever but no email yet. I should be fine right? It was for the Xbox1 version.
>>
>>332619750
I'm in the same boat, but I ordered right after midnight when they said preorders went up and now there's a waiting list a few hours later.
>>
>>332619692
ultimate is, deluxe isnt
>>332619536
yup already sold out
the pc cucks and nintodlers are trying to shit on this, but its really the biggest game this year and its going to sell like hot cakes, the fact they have a fucking ANIME, ontop of a fucking FULL FEATURE FILM with A list actors, guaranteed this shit will sell
>>
>>332619996

I ordered around 12 or 1. Well hopefully we get that email sometime soon.
>>
>>332620307
I was just lucky I was able to check my phone as soon as they went up or I would have missed out for sure.
>>
>>332620004
Damn looks like ill have to preorder through Square then. Hopefully Amazon gets some more and i can go through them later.
>>
>>332611707
>$270
>not even a console

Is it fucking really? I don't remember special editions ever going above $150
>>
>>332620004
>trying to sell a movie for $30
They could have made some money off me if they were reasonable and limited it to $20, but $30 is retarded for a movie. Guess I'll be buying the game and pirating the movie.
>>
>>332620491
I guess those figures go for $130 each, and that one is exclusive the ultimate edition.
>>
>>332620491
What >>332620738 said, half the price is that figure for sure.
>>
>>332620738
>>332620836
It it was an actual figure I wouldn't mind but playarts is fucking garbage tier.
>>
>>332611707
Got mine, I'm so happy to finally be able to wait for this game.
Bought a goddamn PS3 for when it was still Versus XIII.
>>
>>332612818
How about you post the individual ID that comes with the Square Enix charge? This is shooped as fuck. All you did was copy paste the same charge over and over then add a 1 to make it a separate date.
>>
>>332620738
>>332620836
>>332620908
What's so special about it? Plenty of other special editions have big ass figures but aren't nearly as much
>>
>>332620908
I kind of agree, they are usually shit tier, though lately some of their stuff looks alright, and it was more about the price, which is ALWAYS expensive.

>>332621303
Most figures made in Japan that are generally of the upper quality, are always expensive (north of $100 plus shipping if you import them). Though some Play arts figs are shit tier like >>332620908 said.
>>
>>332618052

You'll be surprised. Remember the Fire Emblem Fates limited editions, or anything Zelda? The prices will only skyrocket when release date comes near. I you got one, and are not interested in keeping it, just scalp it.
>>
>>332622101
New to the scalping business. Bought two. You think it's good to put one up now on eBay, and then the other one when it's nearing the release date?

Is it better to sell it ASAP or closer to the release date?
>>
>>332622394
Not that anon, but I scalp too. Best time to sell is right now and the week before release.

The Ultimate edition is selling at $800 right now on ebay. But!
>minus 3% paypal fees
>minus 10% ebay fees
>shipping fees

Ebay doesn't charge you their $80 cut at the end of the month.
>>
>>332611707
>30k*269
That's 8mil in just 30mins.
>>
>Paying 270+ for a poor quality figure, not even a full OST, a movie that will be online for free, early access on dlc items, an artbook, an anime that's free anyways and a steel box. Plus the game.

The only thing that seems worth it is that artbook. But not 270+ wworth it.
>>
>>332622394

Honestly I'm still new, and only did it with the Fire Emblem Fates special edition. I put it up right before street date, and was surprised how fast it went. I see why people do this.

I am certain some other anon can provide more info.
>>
>>332622657
Do people actually make bids for $800? Cuz average for the ultimate is around $500+
>>
>ni no kuni le goes up for sale
>have a chance to get one
>pass it up figuring I wouldn't make much money off it
>this goes up for sale
>pass it up figuring I wouldn't make much money off it
I need to stop underestimating how much people want this worthless shit...
>>
>>332623040
Usually the ones that are limited. Especially if its worldwide, and played by Japan, US, and Europe. Basically, most Japanese made games.
>>
>>332623040

It's the high off the hype, and those that could put something on their shelf as the "rare" edition of the game.

Buyfag here. Allow me to help with prices:

>Gaimu $60
>BluRay movie $20
>BluRay music sampler $10
>60 minutes of 6 animus $60 (Japanese rate)
>Artbook $30
>Play Arts Kai figure $120
>Steelbooks, Box, Postcards, DLC is free

That alone is $300 MSRP, if Square sold everything separately in their online store. But of course, everything will cost them $150 at max.

Also, BluRay music disk? Lolwat
>>
>>332623389
People love cosmetic dlc though, it'll sell. There's a listing on the XBOX store for pixelart car dlc as well.
>>
>>332623040
Scalping is only profitable if you can double your investment after all fees and taxes are paid for. But even then the amount of time and effort is not worth it unless your living depends on this.

Also, vidya and anime figure collectors will pay top dollar to satisfy their OCD. Always make sure to post as many clear, high res pictures as you can. Be clear on your descriptions. Ship only within the USA, you do not wanna deal with overseas costumers. It's fucking hell.
>>
>>332620004

I'm pretty sure there's no proven correlation between Triple A international games getting some shoddy looking anime adaptation and substantially increased sales. I think it was going to sell anyway based on brand recognition and hyping but it'll probably lose money somehow anyway due to bloated production costs like Tomb Raider did.

Then again judging by your language you seem like a shitposter so not worth taking too seriously.
>>
>>332620491

>If it costs more money than it must be better

I don't know I just assume that's the logic from people that seriously feel proud and that it'll improve their self worth and quality of life if they buy this. People will do such stupid things when corporations pump them full of hype. If I'm getting it I'm just going for the cheapest option that gets me the game, but I'm waiting till after it's released for a while and there's coherent feedback on the game, not making the same mistake I did with FFXIII.
>>
>>332623884
I've shipped pokemon cards overseas for prices higher than they were selling in the US and without any hassle. I guess it depends on the hobby?
>>
>>332624270
Maybe you had more luck than me. Anime figures resell above the $100 range. Some going over $200. I sold to 3 Europeans and each time I lost money, the figure, or wasted my time. Either way, I am never selling anything overseas again.
The American anime fanbase is super chill. They buy, pay, and I ship. Never bothers, or complains. Sometimes I get a thanks, which is nice.
>>
Limited copies are always a shitty idea.

Scalpers are a cancer in any market.
>>
>>332620004
>fucking ANIME

It's like, a 5 episode 10 minute OVAs shit out by A-1 dude. Nothing major.

The movie though, yeah.

I was going to, but 300+ dollars with the shipping and tax included is a retarded price.

I'll just get the Deluxe Edition.
>>
>Note: the shipment will occur after September 30, 2016
What does this mean?
>>
>>332624560

I have to disagree - it is a two-way street. Scalpers would not exist if people did not pay their prices. People have shown that they will pay a premium simply for the convenience.
>>
>>332624694
Either they won't start shipping until sept 30th, or shipments won't come earlier than sept 30th.

Hope it's the latter.
>>
I actually had 2 successful preordered but I canceled one so someone else could get one.

Only after did I see the ebay ones going for 700+, kind of regret it but at the same time I don't do scalping although I could use the money, sigh.

They've gotta be banking on brand power and the overall marketing hype going on right now again for this one. There is a BD up for pre-order on Amazon but if people buy it they're absolutely retarded especially since it's going to be free to stream. Kingsglaive actually looks like some effort got put into it though.
