How about trying different card if you have more than one?

Wait a bit and try again. How about clear history, cache, cookies, everything and see what happens?

I think the problem is ordering something from the site that is a Pre-Order.

Same thing happened to me when I tried placing an order for Gone with the Wind Pre-Order. It kept giving me errors and the order would never process. My debit card had two pending charges for the order b/c I tried several times to place an order but the charges went away a few days later. I gave up and didn't try placing an order again.

I get the email today about the Briefcase and tried placing an order again. Same thing - order didn't go through and I got $45 pending charge on my debit card. So I decided to call Customer Service and I placed an order. Nice rep and it was done in less than 10 minutes. She said something about problems with pre-orders as well so...

Well the lesson here is - call customer service and place an order by phone.

I tried that, as well as in three different browsers. I guess their site is just screwed up.

mentaltweak · 11-11-2010, 11:51 PM

Ah, I see.

Rudeboy2025- Thanks for sharing your experience. Originally, I was going to do it on the phone but I was able to get the order through just fine. I made the preorder about 45 minutes ago.

Wow only 2000 limited run, this will definitely be sold out at no time, well at least the U.S. version, not a steelbook, but the briefcase is nice

crystal_sun · 11-12-2010, 12:08 AM

Why not order the one from Germany that includes the steelbook...way cheaper route than the US path

If you buy the FYE steelbook and the US briefcase edition = $90.
If you buy Germany steelbook + briefcase = $54

phoenixinflight · 11-12-2010, 12:15 AM

So this is available to the US only?

I'm tossing up whether or not to cancel my German briefcase if someone could possibly order one of these for me and I will obviously cover the cost + shipping to Australia.

It's Warner so it's not likely to be region locked, but it's probably not worth it for a comic I'll probably only read once + this doesn't look a steelbook.

Apart from that it looks the same, so I'm not sure.

crystal_sun · 11-12-2010, 12:31 AM

because it is not a steelbook

These briefcase editions are not rare anymore...I think I'm going to buy the amaray since they seem less common

Can anyone comfirm that it is a steelbook inside?

"This item ships 2 days after you place your order. " ???

Who said anything about Steelbook

...

the post clearly states sans Steebook (sans = without

)

That's true I could get the Germany version but wouldn't they be in German texts?

I looked over both sites and compared the differences:

Germany: steelbook, 2 discs
US: amaray, 3 discs, 33 pages comic

From what I see, I assume both has artcards, 10 pages black & white PASIV instruction manual and totem and of course, the briefcase.

I can always sell the amaray for like $20. So it'd come out $70 (minus shipping)... not that much of a deal or too expensive but it's something I can live with. XD

My order went through but I never got an e-mail and it doesn't show up in my order history. Same thing happened to my other order! WTF!

where do you find it for $54 US? amazon.de price comes out a little over $65 based on current euro/dollar rates...

crystal_sun · 11-12-2010, 02:38 AM

40 EURO convert to $54 USD.

I hope the US folks buy it from FYE....we need to show FYE that US loves steelbook...gotta support the US economy. I already ordered both...but might cancel the Germany one

Their site is messed up based on what others are saying. I put mine in a few minutes back though and everything appears to be in order. Got the email confirm as well.

mentaltweak · 11-12-2010, 03:27 AM

Wholeheartedly agreed!

Great sale=more steelbooks, more likely.
