EDIT: It works.
Hey y'all,
Just dropping in 'cus the extra 10% for FAKKU Unlimited subscribers does not appear to reflect for the Manga sale that is occurring over this weekend. I tried logging out and logging back in but it still will only give me the 20% off sale price.

First and foremost, in regards to the Michiking Box, we will have a pre-order starting this Saturday. It'll be a similar type of pre-order where it's up until it physically arrives to be shipped out, then it just goes on sale. There will be no changes with the boxset, it's a straight reprint so if you've already purchased the box set, don't be alarmed that there's something in there that you missed out on, just hug your box closely that you managed to get one already!
Additionally, this demand for doujinshi sparked a conversation about availability and we've made the decision to no longer have the doujinshi boxes classified as limited items. Along with the pre-order for the Michiking Box, we will have a pre-order for the Saitom Box to return to the store for everyone who may have missed out on it for the first time. The Saitom Box will differ from the original box set where it'll be the same size as the Michiking Box and Koume Keito Box for consistency's sake.

[quote="KageSennin"]That something that doesn't exist in the doujin world. Want a Comiket doujin either be there, have a proxy or buy it in the secondary market or the few that the big circles give to the stores or they proxies get at the event.
That's basically how doujinshi works. Con specific and rarely reprinted.

Maybe even up to a few years ago but nowadays if your circle has any real clout stock is allocated to sites like toranoana and melonbooks and (at least toranoana) takes preorders and even ships to the US now via an endorsed proxy service. This is all done before the circle puts their order into the printing company which allows them to order more or less based on that. It doesn't make sense to compare an artist like Michiking to a no-name artist that only publishes works at really small cons like sunshine create or something, this is a big mainstream artist and the system they had in place for this product was simply poorly designed from the consumer standpoint.
That's the part of the few circles who sell to the stores but even that is maybe a 100 at most. The seconary market is where most people get them... after the otaku spank it or get tired of that waifu.
I...Is that a joke? Tora has more than 3900 books listed from C96 ALONE. I guess you don't frequent enough?

Now that's just ridiculous, sold out by the time I had chosen the shipping option...First of the boxes I won't have, then...
Yeah, this whole thing has been pretty ridiculous :\
I've been checking the store page twice a day for the past couple months and missed both times it was put up.
I wish they would take pre-orders on them so they could produce a certain amount based on that instead of a fixed amount considering demand will fluctuate.
Great choices. As a suggestion I would have liked to have seen a different poll setup where you could order them based on how much you want them done #1-4 then each title gets proportionally more votes based on how high it is in your rank (i.e. #1 gets 10 points, #2 gets 6, #3 gets 3, #4 gets 1).
P.S.
Dat race chapter in Tsuyairo Trip tho.
