Mana Khemia *uber* limited edition sold out 39.99 bundle still available

[slidecage]

Got my copies yesterday, sweetness. I should have just ordered them all so I could resell them for a fortune on eBay mwahahaha. Nah, I wouldn't do that - I'm glad a lot of CAG'ers got in on this. But it's a great set.

Now I just need to wait for Persona 3 FES, and for Metal Gear Solid Collection to drop to $25 or less. I just hate paying MSRP...CAG has spoiled me.

good luck reselling them. i got 2 listed at 99 bucks that end in few hours with no bids.

[fff398]

reading the box...it seems like all japanese and retails for ~10,000 yen....ie ~$100 for the pvc statue alone...

my guess this limited edition pvc statue was leftovers from japan that the US acquired for free or something ;p

I plan to keep mine

[rodeojones903]

I got mine single copy in yesterday. Can't wait to dig into it once this semester is over.

Pretty sure in Japan it included the game disc as well.

[fff398]

if thats the case, the game would have not been more than 6000 yen(~$60) alone at launch...its ~$40 at playasia for the japanese version and the limited version is OOS at playasia that shows the same box we got

[aerozero]

Wow $100? We got a good deal then >_>

[Risrepkel]

Pretty sure in Japan it included the game disc as well.

The game case probably goes in that empty slot inside the premium box, right where that styrofoam stick is. The special edition we got which came with the soundtrack doesn't fit in there.

[willardhaven]

I mean I think in Japan they had the game + figure in that big box.

Japanese prices for limited edition things are usually high no?

[T3kN]

Mine just came in the mail today. YAY! It came in really good condition, no bumps or bruises.

[serum79]

Still no sign of the one I ordered, I live on Long Island. I called RosenQueen for a status update and they will call me back in a little while

That's definitely not the case as I'm in New York City and received my copies Monday at 10am.I posted that back a few pages ago.Maybe it goes in the order in which they received the orders.I ordered my copies as soon as this was posted...when did you order yours?

[trunks982]

wow ign gave it a bad score. 5.7

[serum79]

cool beans, keep us posted. maybe us east coast fellas always get them last...

I got a call back from RosenQueen and he said that my order was sent to me and provided me a UPS tracking number. My expected delivery date is tomorrow :)

[GunstarRed]

I got mine in the mail yesterday. Came very well packaged and in mint condition, so I'm happy.

The box art is very cool! I don't feel bad about paying the $54 for a package like this. I'd definitely buy more stuff like this from them again.

I like the statue, but my girlfriend called it "perverted". *lol*

[kleptoix]

I live in Queens, NY and still havent received mine. I'm assuming I'll get it by weeks end, if not then I'll start worrying.

[slidecage]

market seems dead or i just had bad luck. both mine ended with no bids. ending vaule 99.00


i wonder if the person who bid 200 for that one will ever pay.


i dont know to relist them cheaper or just keep the items (or even send 1 back)

[UberNinjaz]

I live in Queens, NY and still havent received mine. I'm assuming I'll get it by weeks end, if not then I'll start worrying.
Really? I live in Queens also (Maspeth, near the LIE) & I got mine on monday, guess you should be a little worried.

Then again, I preordered mine like the day after the LE was annouced.

[PleasantOne]

Mine got to CO today. I haven't opened the figure yet. I think I may just hold onto it and see if it can be sold for anything at some point. The game looks great! I just wish it had come with some sort of art book, as well ;)

[Perfect*Ending]

I ordered 2 but at separate times.


I just got one today. Still awaiting my 2nd one.

[Knoxximus]

I got my post office notice/card today, so mine is awaiting pick up. Thank GAWD they didn't leave it on my doorstep, cause I think the damn kids in my neighborhood are on to me!!:hot:

[fff398]

played bout 7 hours...okay game, nothing spectacular, what i expected.


a little off topic, but anyone wanna let me know how to get an A in minerology assignment(i can only get a B with the five nodes they provide)

I 'm from Vermont and mine came on April 1st. Wasn't expecting it that fast via USPS but they shipped it priority mail.

It's still selling pretty well on ebay... sure is tempting.

[LiK]

hmmm, well, i ordered a week after the announcement, i think. i'll see if i got it today or not. if i dont get it by tonight, i'll send them a quick email about it.

edit: o yea, i checked my account on theri site and it says my order is completed. and my order date is 1/22 so that was quite a while ago!

[BrandonJ33]

I got my two today and one of the figure boxes is smashed in on the side. Awesome. The idiots sent them in a box that was barely big enough to hold everything. Awaiting an email response from support, hoping they'll have a replacement figure for me.

[AngellicLulu]

I am irritated myself because I ordered a bunch of other stuff and not only did I have to wait months for it... I didn't get the tshirt I ordered.

Perhaps they used the same box to ship 2 box sets in it. 1 box set = plenty of room to breath, 2 sets = tight as hell. People who ordered one 1 box set, what's the size of the carton box it was shipped in?

[kleptoix]

I just got mine, box is little bigger than the figurine box, with a crumpled up paper to fill the inch of space between the box, game and the outer box. so if the box gets tossed around then the inner box is about to take a beating.

[lbradeen]

Got mine in CT today via USPS. The game and figure boxes arrived in perfect condition.

might want to look again

i had them listed at 99 and got no bids ended last night

[samussiah]

i listed a BIN earlier today for $99 plus $12 shipping and it sold within two hours. made my money back pretty much, with a Mana Khemia and Study Hall Jess! for my own collection.

[jrzshore]

That's cause you started it too high. Start it at what you paid and people will bid, then they'll be willing to pay more as everyone starts sniping, so it's likely to go over $100.

Working for me. :)

my luck i start it at 50 it will end at 60.

hell i figure i spend 40 bucks per month on a cell phone.

opened up one copy, i will just eat the other 55 bucks i blew on it and keep it in my collection ...


i might try one more time but i already blew 6 bucks in ebay listings for nothing

[Slade]

Got mine today as well in NJ.

No problem with the packaging and everything came in good condition. Opened up the game and planning to play it soon, as for the figure, I'm not sure if I'll keep that one.

Relist it and you will get some of your fees back at least the listing fee.

[Frosty The Batman]

I saw the guide at Gamestop today. Should I pick it up for $19.99?
There's still a Disgeae PSP guide sitting there at $9.99 and I thought that would be hard to find. Will this guide you think??

[Rollett]

I just got the normal version :(

[chicagoz]

I finally got mine here today (Thursday). It's in mint condition and I'm very tempted to open it. I'm looking at the back of the box and the game looks very interesting.

anyone wants to make an offer on one or trade for something big letme know. i dont know yet what im going to do with this 2nd one .

or if you just want the game or figure

EDIT i probally just keep the other statue and put the other game up on goozex.

i picked up

monopoly part and xenogears black lable off them last month for 600 pts. I can dump these games on ebay for 60 and just sell this ame on goozex for 600 pts probally once its listed : )

got it yesterday, zero damage. :D

dude just picked it today at midnight est time. I have no clue why someone would pay 200 bucks when there was at least 5 listing of BIN under 120 but they paid 215 shipped. expect a rip off coming

edit 2.... no wonder. the buyer is in Thailand...... i would never send the package cause its probally a scam

[reibeatall]

Ok, to the people who've actually played it, has anybody used the guide? Does it actually help? I'm thinking of picking up the guide because I can't seem to find an in-game way to check the recipes, and having the book there would make more sense.

cant find any info either.... though im not really that deep into the game to really need it yet

[DragonSlayerX]

You don't have to get everything the first time around. It takes the fun out of playing a game for me, if I'm opening up a strategy guide every time I get stuck for a few minutes. Just roam around and maybe you'll realize you just missed something or it's not available to you currently in the game.

[SONIKtheHEDGEHOG]

I found this auction interesting: http://cgi.ebay.com/Mana-Khemia-PS2-Limited-Edition-Jess-Figure-Toy-Only_W0QQitemZ250232761627QQihZ015QQcategoryZ49210 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

This was for the toy only and got about 50 bucks.. So sell the toy if you want to get the game for free.. I think the figure will hold value.. On rosenqueen most figures sell for at least 60.. So considering we got the figure for ten extra bucks doesn't seem like a bad deal... Also, the figure is limited in numbers... I'm sure the value will go up on just the figure....

[willardhaven]

I managed to snag 122.50, I think you had to have it ending on the release day.

We'll see what happens when the amount of auctions decreases.

Don't flame me, but this site has been progressing slowly towards the likes of FW for a while now. Cheapy made the decision a long time ago to limit talk about ethics, and it seems as though many of the resellers have taken a liking to the site because of that. Heck, GQD is a sponsor of CAG now, even after they were caught screwing many members over here on the site. It's unfortunate. I really liked the way this site was before all that, but it always seems to happen with any site that makes money eventually.

GQD is under new ownership since the events you were talking about, if I recall correctly. That was a big part of Cheapy letting them become a sponsor.

ummmmmm this will make the normal buyer think ... if this person has 11 just how limited are they...

ALSO the figures are not really limited since you could get them in japan? So wouldnt that be false advertising saying these figures are limited to 1000.... IF someone really wanted to be a #$#$# they could do a chargeback sayin these figure are not limited


the one i still have listed ends in 20 mins

BIN 95 will never sell

OFFERS

20 bucks
30 bucks
80 bucks (should of taken) ---- this is when my BIN was 130

and
30 for figure alone

I've seen bids up to 200 dollars for this limited collection which seems very shady to me. Makes me think there is something else going on...

This set, only available from RosenQueen and limited to 1,000 orders, is the only way to get the Exclusive Study Hall Jess Figure, along with the game, mini-poster and soundtrack. And by popular demand, it will come with a Limited Edition Collector's Box!
Please note that Mana Khemia will be available at other retailers, and will feature on outer box that will contain the game box, mini-poster and soundtrack only. Also, due to the size of the outer box, it will not fit in the Limited Edition Collector's Box that comes with the Scholarship Box Set.

I wasn't worried I was missing anything, I was just trying to save time by having easy access to the recipes. As far as I can tell, there's no "cookbook" or anything in this game that actually lists what you'll need to synth anything, so you have to go to the synth place to actually figure it out.

I really don't think you have to worry... it's limited in the U.S. I believe to get it from Japan they have to buy the Japanese game as well.

its not that im not used paying premium for PVC figs. i say "fuck that" to $70 since this fig didnt cost $70 in the first place. if i remember correctly it was around $40 after the game was released in japan for a while. and to top it off, people rly only got it for $10.


i dont wanna put the fig away in a dark storage room till the end of time, i actually want to display it in my room

The figures on RosenQueens site sell for like $70 for the same size figure.
Logically one can assume it's value is worth $70.

See, just because we only paid $58 for the game doesn't mean we paid $10 for the figure technically. The point of the limited was to offer the figure with it, for what I assume to be a special discounted price as a bonus and incentive for buying the LE. Just like Eternal Sonata preorders got a free bonus plate, which are actually worth $40, yet we didn't pay extra for em...understand how these things work? Yeah it is confusing tbh.

I'd sell you mine for less than $70, but not for $20 thats for damn sure.
You snooze you lose.

so you basially just said cause its teh same size as the other its technically the same price? what a pile of bs. PVC figs all hav their different values. and like a said before, i remember it being $40 standalone.

yes i know its worth more than $10 and yea i know how it goes for LEs and preorder items interms of value wise. however, i dont mark this under LE since the fig is was obatinable earlier (just my opinion though). yes, i know it is technically a LE since the fig was never offically release here but just imported.

when did i say i wanted to pay $20? [i may have stated earlier in the week but i know better]

and didnt rly snooze on this one. i actually made made a deal with a CAG to buy me one and ship it to me at cost +shipping since my my wallet had gotten stolen at the time. but never heard from him since, never answers my pms. so i tired getting one, i just got left behind on the MK LE wagon.

its not that im not used paying premium for PVC figs. i say "fuck that" to $70 since this fig didnt cost $70 in the first place. if i remember correctly it was around $40 after the game was released in japan for a while. and to top it off, people rly only got it for $10.


i dont wanna put the fig away in a dark storage room till the end of time, i actually want to display it in my room

quick question. if the fig. was only 40 was the game 70?

noticed a 10200 yen on the back of the box. Anyone know what was included for 102 bucks. Seems a little werid they would sell it there for 102 bucks but here for 50?

did they get more crap ....... also still looking for a place to put the one i kept. Stupid kittens jumping all over the house and i be so pissed if they break it.

Usually GUST goes like 5 different packages for the games these days, but the two prices you're listing are for the game itself (7,140¥) and then the premium box (10,200¥). The game itself is just the game with no additional stuff. Their premium boxes are usually the game plus a figure (Mana Khemia was no different). The only one I know deviated from this is Atelier Lise for the DS which was an alarm clock instead.

The other packages I mention cost more than the premium box and include things like the official soundtrack (which is better than the soundtrack we recieved probably as we often get stuff cut), along with other things I can't think of at the moment. You can check it out on their site whenever their store (http://www.salburg.com/products/shop_support/index.htm) comes back up.

So technically we got more than they did at a far cheaper price. Although I believe wages are higher there than in the states, so it evens out a little more. Regardless, if you were interested in the premium it's a deal compared to the Japanese equivalent.

Which is why all the people buying to sell on Ebay kind of annoy me. People like you who actually wanted to buy it for themselves, now have to pay ridiculous prices.

It's simple economics. If you create a market for it, then they'll buy it to resell. If there is no market, there is no resell value.

Basically, get in on it while it was available from the online store. If that didn't happen, wait until eBay prices go down to what is acceptable to you.

The 10200 yen price includes the game. The game goes into the empty slot that has foam cushioning within the premium box.

Essentially, we are getting the Japanese premium package. NISA removes the Japanese game from the package and bundle it with the American version of the game, and sell it for a whole lot cheaper :D

Um I was wondering, does the normal version of the game come with the Original Soundtrack , Mini-Poster, Reversible CD Cover Insert, and Weapon Stat Cheat Sheet? And is it limited? Just wondering, since I'm currently in Germany for a few months, and am worrying if it is limited, if I should just order it right away or wait for a price drop - but I'm afraid that it might be sold out till I'm back. Hope anyone knows an answer to this :/ thanks!

The normal game comes with everything except for the Jess figure. So, yes, it comes with all that. Although I wouldn't really call it a Weapon Stat Cheat Sheet.

Anyways, the Mini-Poster, Reversable CD Cover, and the 'Cheat Sheet' are all on the same piece of paper inside of the OST.

Looks like the flood has finally dried up and we're settling in at starting at $100 and going up :)

Looks like the flood has finally dried up and we're settling in at starting at $100 and going up :)No one has been buying them for that much so I'd be surprised if they went for over $90.

[Antic]

I just essentially gave mine away. I knew it'd be worth about that much, but I figured I'd trade it to someone else who wanted it. I got God Hand and Radiata Stories out of it, which is fine by me (even if it's WAY under that price).

Completed listing disagree with you.

Heck, a figure alone went for north of $50.

Actually sounds like someone trying to revive a dead thread to try and profit on selling something, but that just what I hear.

[Mike 01Hawk]

Na, I'm not selling :)

Just wanted to revive a thread that was so talked about back in the day.
