My local Post Office lost my Play Asia Order. Spent a month with them trying to get it back/find the damn order. Never found a resolution besides them saying we're really sorry. 

 
Unfortunately for the USPS, if they misdeliver a package, they can't force the person they gave the package to, to hand the package back to them.  That person could purely just say no, and that's the end of their recourse.  So certainly depends on if the person who got your package is nice too.  Bleck. :*(

 
Never updated to being Delivered. Just Out for Delivery Limbo. And this happened right before they stopped tracking Play Asia Orders on their site. =[

I know this is OT but is that what happened, the USPS stopped tracking some foreign shipments? I ordered a PS Vita case from PA and the tracking never showed up on USPS's website... however, on the delivery date, I had to sign for the package and everything. Luckily I was home.

Yeah, a few years back when the "Last of Us" was released, I had several of those HUGE LE sets coming from GS by UPS, and normally he's pretty good, but this time he left my entire order at a different house, as in my division, there are several houses close to one another with the same number, but different names. So it's real easy for some one to deliver wrong, but I get packages from UPS all the time, and he knows me by name & face, so it was weird he delivered this order wrong, but we all make mistakes from time to time, it just sucked he made it on a $600-$700 order.

So he remembered where he left it, and left notes and tried to contact the people on many different occasions, but they never replied or acknowledge his request. So they pretty much stole the order. GS refunded me, but it was still a pain, and to know someone near by just flat out stole the items made me kind of frown on the "Love your neighbor", but I've returned several items delivered to me wrong, and most of my neighbors have done the same, so I didn't let that one piece of shit sower me on my community.

But every time I would see their garage open, I would think about going and taking something, but I thought better of it in the end. As I still never had proof of where the items went specifically, as far as I knew, the UPS man took them, so I didn't want to blame someone 100% with out proof.

My regular post man is great, and he has my cell number and I have his, so when he has packages that need to be signed for or left, he'll text me and ask if I'm home, or if he should hold them until later. I can also text him, and see if and when something may arrive. Sadly, he doesn't work 100& of the time, and that's when the problems arise. As the fill in's on his route are hit and miss.

They stopped like 1 or 2 years ago due to a contract or somethinh of that manner
 
Don't worry guys. Whoever ordered blind box vita games, your copies of Thomas was alone and/or one way heroics will be on their way soon.

Wow, I didn't realize Firewatch has a 7300 print run.  I have a feeling that may have a little trouble selling out quickly.

I'm sure it won't sale out in a day, but I'm more than sure it won't last the week(more likely 3-5 days at most). Honestly, I think this is the best scenario each time, as within a week, still allows for the game to be sold out, but it also allows anyone who is interested the ability to get the game with no issues.

Notice ps4 games last longer not many ppl must collect for it which I guess is a good thing for some people like me. Only reason vita sales is due to the niche crowd. BTW LRG how longer will you continue the support for ps vita? Im pretty sure this train may end sooner then we all would like.

Well, unless they can see the future, I'm sure the answer will be they don't know. I would say as long as there are digital Vita releases, and the developers are willing to partner with LRG, the games will continue. Once that stops happening, so will the games.

2017 should be full of titles through out the year, as the release schedule is pretty busy. 2018 is a "?" at this point, but I'm sure there will still be games then as well.

 
My guess is that the end will be dictated by Sony. At some point, they'll decide it's no longer profitable to manufacture the cartridges just like the UMDs.

 
If the Vita cartridges end, I don't see myself buying LRG's PS4 disc either (honestly, a lot of those titles are offered by PS+).  I bought the PS4 version with the Vita copy to save shipping (I could've save more by not doing that of course, but I feel like LRG should be loved for what they're doing).

Anyway, on the topic of failed deliveries... It's not the norm, but shit happens...  When my packages are delivered to the wrong house, I never get them back, tough shit.  However, when I get other people's packages, I always give them back.  There was one time, a UPS truck dropped off a big ass package (heavy as fuck, like 20 lbs or something), the correct address was 10 blocks away, I personally drove over and delivered the package myself.  There were smaller packages as well, usually next door or next street over, I corrected those too.  However, most of the time, it was the letters, sandwiched between my mails.  Those too, I promptly dropped them off.  You see, even though I don't get my packages back, I still do this, because it's the right thing to do.  And yes, it's still a waste of space post, thanks for reading.

 
Still waiting on my Black Friday order of Xeodrifter and Lost Sea for PS4.  Still showing as unfullfilled

 
TBH using PSX as a excuse for shipping out products is no excuse. They need to hire more folks to ship the products if thats the case. Pretty sure they get bombarded with bitching from patrons who arent always on CAG. I never had a issue but looking at this thread and ppl stating They still have gotten shipments from BF isnt good. Thats equivelant to getting something imported timewise. If it means 5 more for shipping so be it.

Increasing costs by hiring more people means they have to increase prices to compensate. I'm fine with the way things are now. A little patience goes a long way.

Perhaps it'd be good idea to implement an expedited shipping option for those who prefer paying a small premium for faster processing/shipping.

And im willing to pay the price if I was impatient . Not everyone is patient and Im not speaking for me but for others here or they should give an option for expedieted shipping to those who dont like waiting. My games have all arrived promptly except I think new and tasty but dude took care of it and apologized and that time it was some post office B.s mixup.

This is the way it has been, and I agree, it's just fine as is. If anyone is in that much of a rush, buy these games digital, and play them NOW, problem solved!

Adding a premium shipping option seems good, but I would never use it, but some may I guess. I just really don't see the problem honestly either way. They clearly state games can take 1-2 weeks to ship, and if anyone has the ability to read twitter, they update there all the time as well, and say where they are in shipping.

When I was a teen I bought a bunch of Molly from overseas on some really fucking sketchy website. To my horror it was delivered to the wrong person. I heard a knock on my door and assumed it was the police. It was a friendly old lady who received my package.

I don't get down like that anymore (or ever again honestly once was enough for that) but I always remember it and make damn sure to do the right thing.

Yes, and mine usually ships the same day I purchase the items. There's been a couple of times that it was delayed slightly due to vita copies not arriving in time / stickers not being delivered when they should have, but it's nice to get priority, plus Doug signs the games.

I didn't care about the stickers for the release in which they were delayed, so I asked if he could just ship mine without the stickers. Doug made up for it by throwing 10 stickers from past releases (even the very first sticker they released!) in the package for me.

Totally worth the $10 a month if you ask me.

 
My Vita blind box was just delivered. I had no expectations when I got it so I don't think I'll be disappointed unless I get a game I already have. My most hope is that it's Soldner-X 2. That was the only one I couldn't get when it went on sale.

I'd rather wait a bit and pay less, than get it faster but have to pay more for them to hire more people.

Jesus Christ you couldn't handle it when I was a kid. Everything you ordered took 6 to 10 weeks to get.

People are just so damn impatient and demand everything right now. If you're in such a hurry buy the digital version and be quiet about it.
 
It looks like we should be able to wrap up packing by Wednesday. Hoping to have labels all done by then as well but it is pretty hard with how many small combinations we had with the black Friday orders. We can't hire more staff to assist with the once-in-a-blue-moon scenario we're currently in. We shipped Volume out in three days and Shantae two (minus the international headache USPS caused). We're doing perfectly fine for a small company, I think. The more randos we pull into help ship, the more likely it will be that errors happen in the shipping process. We don't want that so we prefer to keep the team small and build their skills. We're better equipped to deal with Black Friday next year!

Dude im over my 20s and im not speaking for myself but others here. If ppl want packages faster at least give the option and make them pay more. Us paying for standard shouldnt be bitching. Again stop attack me as IDGAF how long it takes to get the games as long as I get it. Maybe If you read the post that im not speaking for myself but others who are complaining. Again I do not care.

That's a ridiculous form of deflection. If people have issues, they can post them here or address them directly with LRG. You don't need to engage in passive aggressive criticism of LRG by claiming you are not speaking for yourself, but for people who care so little about the issue that they didn't bother to post here. Your constant whining is really becoming tiresome.

got 2 ps4 blind boxes, and 1 of them was a game i ordered from the other stock they had released that day. the bf blog made it sound like that wasn't possible. that's just my kind of crappy luck though

 
First time orderer. In my vita blind box, got Mystery Chronicle One Way Heroics. I didn't get the holy grail of Breach and Clear. I'm happy with what I have. Bubble mailer and then since it was a blind box, it had a cardboard box. Decent packaging

Yeah you do give a fuck, that's why you quoted me and replied. You can say you don't in order to make yourself feel like you don't because you want to feel tough or whatever you want but your actions defy your statement.

And no you don't speak for others. You're using that as an excuse to justify what you say or to give yourself a cheap sense of satisfaction but really you're speaking for yourself and just using others as a easy way to explain it away hoping you won't come off as self serving.

If you're going to argue people might take you more seriously if you pick up an English book before you post again.

Obviously though talking to you is pointless so I'll simply not respond to you again. Good bye.

Mine should be here any minute now, so I'll report back soon. I'm not expecting anything great, but I took a chance anyway. You can't win if you don't play. LOL
