Endwalker Collector's Box

[enthauptet]

I had been refreshing the store after Yoshida was talking about ordering it and I actually found out about the game preorder page from the Wario64 bot on twitter so I got lucky lol it was put up 30 minutes before they sent out the email about it so I got my order in at 12:12am eastern time. I sent the link to my friends because I didn't see it posted anywhere else.

Geez, I can still add it to cart on the Japanese store. How come these seems to be plenty available there?

I tried checking the Squeenix store during fanfest, and then forgot about it and closed out of the window. I was sent an email to preorder it (the squeenix giant ad PREORDER NOW!) > clicked on the link at the time > and then placed it in my cart. Once my cart had the item, I was placed in a Que (much like duty finder) and had to wait to purchase it within that time period. Then proceeded to purchase it and confirmation email shortly after it was finished within 10min window that I had to do it. But I wouldn't worry too much about not having any more. As someone mentioned, they went a couple extra rounds for FFXIV on Sb and ShB for CE's. Just have to be aware. Check the page (refresh) constantly, watch social media, and keep tabs on your emails!

I've been using Wario64 bot for PS5's and Xbox series X consoles or graphics cards lol

Just checked again and still available on Japanese store!

*Editing because apparently at daily limit.*

Good news everyone! An analysis of the components of the Collector's Edition indicates it mostly composed of paper/cardboard, plastic, cloth, and a small amount of metal for the pin! No Unobtainium was used in its manufacture!

This just reeks of incompetence. I see people saying they have had additional runs before of CEs. Buying a CE should not be some sort of Mad Max, Darwinian race of if you happen to be online at just the right time and/or not have the store crash before supply "runs out". You just do it as I outlined before. The concept is called "limited run" as you use the pre-order period to determine the number to produce. There is ZERO reason to do it otherwise other than to engender anger and discontent. I buy things from Japan all the time that are produced this way.

*Edit*
And STILL available on the Japanese store today!

That pretty much says how much they count the EU.
Once again no stock for the EU.

It seems rather hard to believe that SE won't restock on CEs again but they really need to comment on that, we need to hear from them about this issue and we can't have us all waiting and refreshing like madmen for the whole year. We all have jobs/studies/better stuff to do.

I can't believe i now have to battle, credit card in hand, for a CE as if i'm trying to get the latest graphics card from scalpers like 6 months ago. When i used to get CEs weeks after release without having the website crash on me.

Why aren't the collector editions reserved for those who have (or had at some point this year at least) an active ffxiv account?

Is it really too soon for square to talk about restocks when they already talked about CEs being out of stock?

Why are we out of stock so soon when jp shop still has CEs?

[Jeycht]

I REALLY hope that gonna be available in a later date. It was gone in less than 1h on EU store.
I have buy every previous collector expansion before and want to be able to add it to my collection.

Maybe they have a bigger stock for Japan in general. Or they don't want to ship as many Containers to their warehouses in America or the EU.

Im curious y its the same price as pc version, when it doesn't come with game code
