Shows back in stock. I just placed an order successfully. Who knows how many copies they have left at this point. Good luck!
Edit: Use code LOYAL5125C15 for 1500 yen off your order.
So in 2022 I ordered Skyrim Ultimate edition Boxed Set 4x lp clear variant. Delayed.. majorly..
Within the same order I also had Ghost in the shell OST. Sent an email requesting they send my partial order of Ghost in the shell. They answered my email and agreed. I received it no problem.
Then crickets for 2 years.. not a peep and no answers to any of my emails about my order. Only sporadic updates saying that they are still working on getting skyrim in stock.
Then in Nov. 2024 I get an email saying my order with skyrim is being fulfilled. I receive my package only to find ANOTHER copy of Ghost in the shell. Several more emails were sent to which I got no reply.
So today I reported them to econsumer.gov Not even 30 minutes later I received a reply to one of my emails stating they had already sent me Skyrim boxed set. So I explained to them AGAIN how they did not send me Skyrim but in fact sent Ghost in the shell. Said I had pics and email correspondence from 2022 as well. They emailed back right away saying that my refund has been sent. 96.99 Euros
It took me threatening to report them to any other e-commerce watchdogs I could find to get them to send me my refund..
Anyone who has had trouble with not getting your orders, don't give up. It's been stressful and I really had to keep the pressure on these scammers to get that money back. So there is a little bit of hope for you all out there who have been ignored by them.
Report these guys to all the watchdog agencies you can.
(For context, I live in canada and I was not able to report them to the European watchdog agencies that I wanted to because they stated that I had to be an EU citizen)
Econsumer.gov is the site which I used to report them and they are based in the US
I hope this can help someone else in the same boat as I was.
Hello! I have finally found the subreddit I didn't know I needed! I just got into vinyl, especially video game soundtracks. I have all of the Breath Of Fire ones so far and hope to continue my collection. But I digress, I have an issue with the Materia Store it seems.
I recently purchased a vinyl from them, 9 days ago now. And it hasn't been shipped yet.
I know it hasn't because I am a Postal Worker and can see "scans" that the public can not when it comes to shipping.
My question to you all, is it normal for Materia to take over a week to ship out your order?
Thank you
I just got it at very ok vinyl.
I meant Vinyl on subject. Didn't see it (unless if I'm blind) but here we gooo. Amazon JPN exclusive https://amzn.asia/d/3EcphUq
Btw, this is not cancelable once order is placed *Add, wish amazon worded better. It appears it means Amazon Exclusive Items included but they didn't mention the "Items included" also, this is Squarenix doing the job it seems so quality should be good
I apologize
I stumbled upon a second hand record player from this brand and I was wondering if it is a good buy. I don't know anything about record players but it is really cheap and I can't afford a lot more than that.
So, I've been collecting some vinyl for the past year or so, and I was playing them on my Grandma's old record player in the garage. I've moved into my own place now, though, so I need to buy a record player but I admit I kind of have no idea what I'm doing.
So, I'll preface this by saying I'm not really an "audiophile" -- not saying that in a negative way, but I have some problems with my ears and I can't claim to notice subtle differences in music outside of "this sounds louder or clearer than this" sometimes. So, having the best or the latest set up isn't that important to me.
The main thing I'm worried about is buying a record player that isn't super super cheap because I don't want shoddy craftsmanship to damage my vinyls. I've looked at the $50 and under vinyl players on Amazon and I just don't know if I'd trust them with a $100 record, yknow?
Lastly -- and this isn't a huge deal -- but can anyone tell me if there are vinyl players that lift the needle automatically when the record is done? I'd hate to fall asleep while listening to a vinyl and leave it going for an hour or three before I roused myself.
Furthermore, I'm a little confused. Do the players these days come with sound output built in? Do I have to buy a speaker to play the music? My grandma's player plays fine on its own and with the giant tower speakers she used to have. Then again, maybe I'm misunderstanding something.
Anyone know if there are plans to release the vinyl of the Astrobot sound track?
EMP and Amazon.de have it listed as pre-order with a release date of 26/12/2025. Anyone know if this is legit or just wishful thinking on behalf of the stores? Laced Records don't seem to have similar release info on their store.
We're following the example already set by many other subreddits and have now banned links to Twitter/X, Facebook and Instagram.
In reality we don't have a ton of links to these (Meta especially), so in that sense it's not a massively impactful decision, but it's about taking a stand.
For announcements and such that are only available on those sites, we suggest that you do a text post and insert the text from those announcements instead. If they're accompanied by one or more images you are also free to post just the image(s) alongside the copied text.
On a similar note we have also considered banning links to Amazon. As links to Amazon are far more widely shared in here it will obviously have a bigger impact and because of that we want your input on whether or not Amazon should be banned. If it goes through it will include all regional Amazon sites.
Please vote in the poll below (edit: poll ends in 3 days from this post going up).
UPDATE (Jan 31): Apologies that it's taken a while to follow up on the poll. As it ended in an extremely close vote (51% for vs 49% against) we had to take some time to consider the approach going forward.
As it really could have tipped either way with just a few more votes we have decided to continue to allow Amazon links - for now at least. What we will be doing is to set up automated comments on all Amazon posts recommending that people consider buying directly from the label or other retailers instead of Amazon.
I know a couple of years ago they said they were planning on a repress of Portal 2 with the potential of Portal 1, but from what I understand it's been radio silent since mid 2024. Has there been any updates that I haven't seen?
