Title: Is "Game of Japan" Usually slow?
Post by: SaturdayMorningRobots on March 30, 2011, 05:38:39 AM: I've made a couple of orders from Hit-Japan with no problem, but Having made an order with their non Ebay store Game of Japan on the 17th My order is STILL being processed 13 days later! Are they usually that slow? I wrote to ask if there was a problem and the only reply I got was "sorry for the inconvenience, your order is still being processed." I hope I'm not stuck in limbo for an out of stock game.

It might have something to do with the quake. Maybe. Maybe not.

Post by: turbokon on March 30, 2011, 06:04:34 AM: I have that same problem too. I ordered a few games thru eBay about a week after the quake and I received them already. I ordered a arcade card duo just a few after that, on the 16th, they only shipped it on the 25th.

A seller doesn't have to be in a disaster zone to do that. Had that happen Ordering some NES carts from an American Ebay seller recently :) And yeah don't pay till you hear back.

My order finally shipped today so I feel better. I don't mind the wait just the lack of communication (Language barrier is no excuse.) I'm getting Spriggan, Spriggan Mk 2 Asuka 120% Puyo Puyo and Ranma 3. (which I used to own) :)

Chalk it up to concerns of Godzilla being enraged by the radiation leaks, I guess.

I've not had problems with Hit or GOJ, but if I elect to use SAL shipping, that method can take forever!

Post by: turbokon on April 05, 2011, 01:11:52 PM: I ordered image fight with hit of japan thru eBay on march 26th and it arrived today via airmail. I'm still waiting on the arcade card pro I ordered thru game of japan website on the 16th. I know I didn't choose SAL shipping method. This suck because I'm dying to play gate, lords and sapphire on my pce ifu cd setup.
