Adventures in Buttsville - infamous and yahoo japan

infamous and yahoo japan

Oct. 29th, 2011 at 8:00 PM

anyone has active yahoo japan deputy account?

if so

could you maybe price-quote me (or estimation) how much it would be for this:
ITS FULL OF MYSTERY
there is a few of them on yja right now and.....i am not sure what they are. at first i thought it was just the japanese promo copy of the game (like the European ones included in the press kits/etc) but then i noticed the disc is branded with "DVD" and not "BluRay" and now my interest has gone up by 70%

its listed fairly cheap so im inclined to think it is probably a disc with a trailer on it...but....i won't know unless i get one, right. ~~and if it is a trailer i am sure it is awesome, since the japanese trailer for inFamous 1 was my favorite~~

there is also some kind of inFamous 2 DLC code on there too, i think some of them mentioned it was from coro coro? does that make sense? i am not interested in the code (already have it) but the coupon itself is kind of neat looking. >_> the dlc vouchers we get here are like plain text HERE IS YOUR THING.

and this poster i wish it used the japanese box art though.

AND ONE MORE QUESTION, do you think it would be better to try to buy the game from yja? i still want to get the japanese version of inFamous 2 at some point...its so pretty, and the JP release of inFamous 1 is one of my favorites just because its so colorful.

k the end

Edit: or you can give me the total amount of dollars you want to spend on the DVD (before international shipping, etc) and I can try to find out what your max bid should be. I'm a bit worse at solving the above equation backwards, however; sometimes the actual cost is $1-$3 different from what I anticipated.

well, there is a few on yj right now and they're all fairly inexpensive, so i don't think this is a highly wanted item. so maybe $20 total??

wry does curiosity do this to meeeee.

~~also you're awesome, thanks ;-;~~

Every time I think I'm being good with not spending money, shiningmew (the resident Y!J-aholoic) will link me to some awesome Bulbasaur/Kyogre auction that she found on Y!J.

For instance, I bought a Bulbasaur coin a few weeks ago. It ended up costing me $22. For one coin. I have no regrets because I am insane when it comes to Bulbas, but still... TWENTY TWO DOLLARS FOR A COIN.

hey i might end up spending $20 on a dvd that might have 1 trailer on it that i could view online for free.

BUT ITS THE GAME OF MYSTERY THAT MAKES IT FUN.

Got it. I put in a starting bid and will bid again when the auction has less time left. (I hate the fact that you can't truly snipe on Y!J, but I still wait until the last minute to bid if possible.)

You'll have to tell me what's on the DVD if you win one. I'd look myself, except my DVD player can only switch regions a few more times before it auto-locks to region 1.

I'm going to bed now, but I'll be online around 4:30 am PST if you need me for anything else auction-related.

You won the Infamous DVD for the starting bid of 100 yen. I'll let you know when I get the first invoice. It will probably be a day or two.

I got the first invoice today for your DVD. Here's a screenshot.

That translates to $14.48 after conversion and Paypal fees. Please send payment to nelsonn@alumni.upenn.edu and include what it's for in the memo.

I'm not sure yet what I'm going to do on international shipping. I was planning to not charge you and ship it with one of my own items, but I lost the auction in the last 5 minutes. I do have a group auction that I need to ship. It would be cheaper to ship your DVD with that, but the problem is that I don't know how much the DVD would increase the shipping cost, if any. I don't want to overcharge the GA participants on accident.

Probably, but could you wait until I get the international shipping invoice? You'll have to pay for shipping from me to you anyway, so I'll just combine those two payments.

Could you send the $14 now? It will probably be a few weeks before I get the package, and I will forget about the first payment by then.
