Hi Ys Fans I'm quite a big Ys fan even though i only own Ys TaON on PS2 ..lol But i was wondering, if i wanted to buy the following games Ys : The Ark of Napishtim Ys : Origin Ys : The Oath in Felghana If any of the above can still be got in Limited edition i would probably like that more (Limited edition MAD BOY ) but im ok with originals! I've been reading some threads stating that Falcon is an ok site to buy from or i could just buy from HimeyaShop but all 3 must be in Japanese What i need help on is "IF" buying from falcon (sending email ect.) how exactly would i do this? do i just list the games i want or does it require Order codes? That the confusing part for me because i've never odered stuff this way. Also last Question i need to know - Visa Electron(if you know what that is lol...Hope so) Do they or will they except that card..? Thanks and i hope to get a reply soon

Thanks and i hope to get a reply soon A guide on how to order from Falcom can be found in the first post of this thread. Apparently your card will work, but "you *must* give your address *EXACTLY* as it appears on your card. If it's like, one letter or punctuation mark off, it won't go through." Origin can still be bought as a limited edition, but Napishtim and Felghana no longer can, unfortunately. Also, I strongly suggest against Himeya as they are a ripoff. Enjoy your games!

Thank you very much for that link, it help with quite abit.
I manage to get total cost myself (without shipping)
£121.28 (without Shipping cost) + deadly Customs O.o <--
yep im waiting for that part (customs)
£121 for 3 Ys games i dunno if that good but i see most sell for $80+ on sites so it probably is.
Last Question until i can pretty much start sending out emails and doing it all myself : -
I pretty much know where to look on the site for things even though i know absolutely no japanese except probably 1-5 words but when ordering how do i find out the follwing *3*
ITEMNUMBER - This i don't know ITEMNAME - japanese name i assume? or english ITEMPRICE - this i know
sorry to be a troublesome person but the help here as been more than great.
Thank You.

Sincerely, NAME DATE ***payment ect. i will probably add on the email i send after they reply to my first, because this is my first time doing it*** Unless you think this is a must do on first Email sent... Just let me know if this is fine and what i should keep there and remove like ITEMPRICE doesn't need to be there right?? or PRICETOTAL...? I'll start ordering after this final Reply, im not as confused but still some points i need to know before i start buying Thanks Again.

Yeah, those are the numbers. Like wyrdy said you could remove the prices if you want, but that'll work.

Could someone tell me how long Falcom would take to respond to an email about an Order Request?
Not a rushy Type but knowing the length of time would be nice anyhow...
1day - 1 week or +
something like that or higher?
Thanks

Varies wildly. Could be fast, could be over a week. You'll usually get a reply by the time they change the weekly offer though.

Not always, though. It sometimes takes them a really long time. I did say 'usually'

There was something i forgot to ask Which i hope can be replied too..
I didn't put my Address and Credit card details in the first Email i sent.
Should i have done this for a quicker reply or will it just be a longer process?
i actually don't mind sending another email with the same contents but just this time ill add Address + Credit card details to make it quicker.
(by quicker i don't mean rush..lol)

Nah, they'll just reply asking if the price quote they give you is okay and will probably ask you for your address and payment details then.
I think sending another e-mail will only confuse them and make them think you want double items. ^^;

If you order other items in the future, you won't need to give the address and the credit card info. You can use your latest receipt number to avoid this.

I'd probably just write the Card info + Address always to avoid any possible problems In my first post i asked if Visa Electrons were allowed and i think the reply was they should be ok but i need to know if they Need my CCV (3 digit Code) on back of Card ~So it be displayed like this Credit Card Owner (Name) Credit Card Type: ### Credit Card Number: ### Expires End : ### CCV : ### <---(Not sure on this one) I know the guide says only 3 which is Card type,Number and Expiry Date but because mines only a Visa electron (not exactly a credit card) they may need the 3 digit code *shrugs* but i need info on this just incase it's not needed. Sorry just haven't done this before so kinda not sure what details on the card are needed ..lol

Wanted to write this and put myself at a slight ease : -
I sent my email with my credit card info after getting the email from them stating the prices.
that was sent on 22/4/09
it's 03/05/09 today and no email with confirmation that they accept it, just really wanna know if this is normal and they can sometimes take this long to reply.
Sorry to ask or seem rushy but just wanna know =)
Thanks
