    5. Ohhh grats^^ He's gorgeous.

      Ohhh some of you got Renee too :D Awesome!
       
    6. I've been checking for the last two hours... the clothes weren't ever really up. Keep trying.
       
    7. CONGRATS!

      (we're still trying.... *prays)

      ETA: we got some clothes.
       
    8. Ahhhh!! Congratulations! I totally had the worst luck, even with 3 other friends trying for me. *_*

      I can't wait to see pictures of yours!
       
    9. kchan congrats!
      I never even saw him in stock. ;_;
       
    10. I got Renee too. It was quite smooth sailing for me. :) Yay Arashi has a playmate.
       
    11. Did the white maiden kimono dress go up?
       
    12. Congrats to everyone that got what they wanted :) I got the outfit I wanted. Now im going to bed good night everyone. :) have a great weekend.
       
    13. yay! i got all the outfits that i wanted, staying up all night was totally worth it
       
    14. Yes, about five minutes ago. They're updating page three now.
       
    15. *sigh* I thought so. I got the server error when it seemed time for that one. *dies*
       
    16. How on earth did you manage that??? I have been hitting reload constantly from 1:57am (at which time it was 'this item is not available at this time') until ... well, now... I managed to click on the add to cart button but it didn't make it into the cart.

      Scuze me while I go cry in a corner. :(

      Renee is the only Volks doll that has really lit my fire in a long time. Annnd, once again in spite of trying every lottery and staying up until obscene hours, I still have the choice of paying 3X original price or just letting it go.

      It wouldn't be so galling if people hadn't jacked the price up to 180,000 yen....

      Oh well. Wanting something doesn't make it happen and no one sits up in heaven deciding that those who 'deserve it' (ie aren't just buying to re-sell) get it.
       
    17. All you new Renee owners are so lucky! Congratulations! I was hoping she'd be my first doll, but looks I'll just wait a little longer. (Seriously, my 3 friends and I must have the worst luck!) I can't wait to see all the Renee pic spam in a few weeks!
       
    18. Congrats to all who got what they wanted <3

      Now to worry about customs ^^;;;;
       
    19. I got chinatsu in my cart, went to paypal, click pay and then error? wtf does this mean!! and i got mail say its canceledvoided

      the payment is in my paypal but status canceled. wtf :(
       
    20. Ah beans I couldn't even get the outfit I wanted.
      And now I'm too wired to sleep, this is not shaping up to be a very good day.
       

    21. Check your cart!!! This happened to me too, and there she was in my cart. It was a tiny bit of a hasstle to check out, but it was WORTH IT!!! CHECK YOUR CART;)

      The greatest of luck to you on getting her though. I hope she's there:)
      ~Anthony
       
    22. You're welcomed to come cry in the corner with me. :(
       
    23. What do you do if you made it all the way through check out and it was processing, and then it started doing the server error?
       
    24. She wasn't in your chart Ryochan??:(
       
    25. Please someone answer what do you think this means! as said i have the payment in my paypal but canceled..
       
    26. I got the outfits I wanted, but when I keep trying to pay for them, I keep getting this message: "I am sorry, it cannot deal with a visitor's credit card very much now.[CODE:1G971FOR]"

      Is anyone else getting this problem? What does it mean??
       
    27. Well, they finally stocked some clothing, and I got one of the outfits I wanted. Unfortunately, for some reason the site wouldn't let me add any OTHER in-stock items to my cart until I paid for that one. (????) So I paid for it, and now I'll hope they restock again. Which means I'll be paying a whole crapload extra, since I'll have to pay separate shipping for every item I get... :barf
       
    28. I've got Renee too!!!! *T____________T*

      I had some problems with the site too, but luckily she still was in my shopping cart and finally I could make the payment.. I'm so happy!!!!
       
    29. Don't know, Sweetiemi. I finally got all 3 pairs of shoes that I wanted, gave up on the SD16/17 suits, and got out of there. What a PAIN! And when you say you want to "continue shopping" it takes you to your "My Volks" page, and you can't navigate to anything from there! AAAARGH! I need a drink.
      Goodnight all, and congrats to those who got Renee. Ryochan, you have my sympathy about Renee, but didn't you get Suigintou?
       
    30. Thanks for your good wishes but no such luck for me. :( I clicked 'view cart' to checkout (instant checkout wasn't available) and it wasn't there right after I clicked. I checked again to be sure and still nothing.

      I'm still hitting reload just in case. *sigh*
       
    31. Congratulations to all who got what they wanted.

      Well I got the chibi girls coat set which I really wanted, but not the white maiden kimono which has been my heart's desire since I saw it. :( I'm highly doubting they'll restock it too. Maybe I should just go to bed?
       
    32. Ryochan if you did not close your Volks Page, then you are still logged in, and if you did add Renee to your cart or think you did then there is a Chance she might actually be there. Don't give up just yet!!

      I really hope you get her:aangel:
      ~Anthony
       
    33. No, I got Hinaichigo for a friend who then of course decided she didn't want her. :(
      Story of my life.
       
    34. Blargh! Alain came back into stock for a second and I got him in my cart but went to check out and he's gone.
       
    35. Well, with as many people as got her here, I'll keep my fingers crossed that someone doesn't bond (and feels generous enough not to charge more than a thousand dollars markup. >_<)

      Off to try to sleep now. Thanks for the comfort everyone! Even if I didn't win, it's nice to know people care.
       
    36. Use paypal instead. It's safer, error wise.

      I got four out of the five outfits I wanted. This is the first AE where things actually... worked. For me, anyway. I usually end up screaming at the monitor. :sweat

      Good luck everyone! Keep refreshing-- things keep coming back in stock.
       
    37. I had Renee, but the site crashed before I could confirm her in my cart. :...(

      But I did hang around and get my MSD Cream dress & white MSD shoes. :fangirl:
       
    38. ryochan, the same thing happened to two of my friends with Renee... they got her in their carts but couldn't figure out how to check out and weren't given the option to checkout and pay once they got her in there.

      I totally feel for you right now!
       
    39. Good for those who won. Congrats! I didn't manage to even see Renee, eventought I was hitting refresh furiosly. Well wasted 24 hours.

      *goes to corner and cries*
       
    40. Everything was removed from my shopping cart!! WTF?? Wow, what a blow... I tried so hard to pay for the outfits, and they get wiped from my cart!! Arg, that really stings...
       
    41. AAARGH!!!! I hit reload one more time and got 'there is a little bit left over' I hit 'to order' as fast as I could but... no dice. Still didn't make it into the cart. It's just teasing me now.

      Ugh... ok, really going to bed now.
       
    42. My payment got voided. what does that mean.
       
    43. Welcome to my corner. I'll share my comfort chocolates with you and we'll bemoan our mutual lack of Renee...
       
    44. I got that a few times, then my cart got wiped... I guess even if it's in your shopping cart, it doesn't mean you have it until you're fast enough to complete payment as well...
       
    45. Well, I've managed to get two of the three outfit items I wanted, but because of weird site mechanics, I had to pay for them separately, so I've had to pay $20 or so shipping twice.
       
    46. I guess I lucked out. I did not hit any server error or any of that b.s. I ws keeping my fingers crossed the whole time though! I completed my order in two minutes.
       
    47. I have done 3 "to purchase this item immediatly" and i got three "voided" payments in paypal. please what does this mean
       
    48. This means that your card is not authorised for internet transactions. At least, it was for me. I called my bank and that's what they told me happened, so I told them that it is an authorised transaction.
       
    49. Just for frame of reference... at what point should I consider this a lost cause and stop hitting refresh on Renee's page in hopes that something changes?

      I should probably just call it a night, huh?
       

    50. Oh, that's a good news. Congratulations!! I was worrying about your Reene. I tried the lottery for you but could not win Reene by my account.
       

    51. Thank you! Yes, that was probably what it was. Live and learn I guess - I won't be making the same mistake next time!
       
    52. I'm happy, because I got all three of the clothing items I wanted, but frustrated by the fact that I had to buy all three in separate transactions. Every time I tried to add something to my cart, it bumped out whatever was already there (so I can apparently only have one item of any sort in my cart at a time...?). I've paid...$75 in shipping charges, for just the three pieces of clothing (I got a trenchcoat, one of the SD17 suits, and one of the SD boy jeans sets).
       
    53. I was hoping for Reene, but had no luck. I did get my pair of pink msd shoes though. So Im happy anyway. Gratz to the ones who got her.
       
    54. Yes it is... I just feel so terrible for those who couldn't get her:(.... I actually stayed up and went back to wait for the SD16 girl and boy clothing to come back in stock, and with a little patience I actually got all 4 of the SD16 clothing items I wanted:aheartbea

      I am so very sorry for those who are still trying. But all I can say is don't give up. I was about to give up on the SD16 boy stuff, but I actually got it eventually!!!! So don't give up everyone. Keep on trying!!!!!!!!!:fangirl:
      ~Anthony
       
    55. I've been clicking and clicking the refresh button but to no avail :sweat Must seem very funny to my family...me clicking the mouse again and again :fangirl:
       
    56. Why do i get error when i am about to pay?
       
    57. Best way to buy at AE with paypal is to choose other method payment. checkout and then have them invoice your paypal.

      It voided your sale others already bought out the item before you could checkout.
       
    58. I was going to do something very impulsive. I was watching at alain pics yerterday and thought I could finally embodice my character Logan (I was hitting limwho mano or some other "manly" BJD) when I remembered him. Been looking at his face for hours, evenphotoshopped it with my mods

      The event was late at 11 am here in Spain, but I went to bed at 4 a. m. after being busy all day with a college project (I&#180;ve had a couple of terrible weeks and my quarter exams are about to start) but I was so sleepy I forgot to set the alarm clock and got to hte computer at 11.15 ..all was gone by then

      Bangs her head on desk... difficult to admit one&#180;s stupidity

      T____________T
       
    59. No Pretty Kitty Girl for me *cry*

      I stayed up and struggled obsessively for Renee, like so many here. I got her for about 2 seconds, but when the shopping cart page opened ever so slowly, it was empty. Feeling sad now and my shoulders and neck just hate me!
      I feel so frustrated that the clothes were sold out more than 2 hours before the event. The things I wanted, especially the Chibi Snow Sets, never re-stocked. I managed to get a few wigs I hope I will like in person, 1 of the MDD white sailor sets, not the dress one I liked best but the jacket one. Then they restocked the unpronouncible Cthulhu and I grabbed her. I have nothing this size, but was too taken by the cuteness!
      I have very little hope that I can ever buy Renee - her secondary price is just sickening!
      Congrats to the happy winners!!
      Green with envy *blush*
