FFXI Soundtrack on backorder

[Alhanelem]

Relating to the soundtrack for some of us that did get it, how do I claim the Spinet? I'm not sure if you sent directions in different languages to different regions, but I pre-ordered mine out of a retailer in Hong Kong and the instructions are all in Japanese...that is if I'm looking at the right thing.

This doesn't sound legitimate to me. I thought the only way to get it was through SE's online store?

Hey gang, I checked into this for you all. Basically the email you received is simply an automated message that is generated when the item(s) in your order are not available to be shipped on the pre-determined release date (in this case, on 11/15). While the message does say it's "out of stock" and makes it seem like your order is up in the air, the notice is simply being generated and sent because the products are not yet in stock in our system to send out. So hang tight, your orders are fine and there's no need to worry!

Good to know that. Thank you!

So when will they be shipped? My friend who ordered via Amazon.jp already received his...

Thanks a lot, sir!

Um Bayohne, I think you need to double check that. I just emailed and they said that, in fact, it IS out of stock, there is NO eta on shipping the item, and they did not confirm whether or not we'd receive the first edition bonuses we were promised.

it's been one week and we haven't heard anything else. I really hope we get the cd that comes with the ingame item code.

Well.. i wasn't worried, but now I sort of am. Haven't received my cd either ...

My code works. It's legit.

My Japanese soundtrack just arrived (I ordered from Play-Asia) and my code for the Spinet registered just fine on my EU account - thought I'd post just to let others know.

Thanks for mentioning that. I shall take upon the adventure and see if I can get one from there as well. The shipping costs can almost double the price, but oh well, I think I will take the risk and choose the cheapest way there is, if I am able to give them my money that is. It wont work with me "main-bank", so will need some days to work it out!
