Samurai S500JX-LR Contest

[beautiful_FrEaK]

what do you mean, "stole" ? You just came up with the most unlikely pair for a contest , about 7 months too late in the planning and now you would like to blame me ?

Get in line...

I don't get if you 100% serious or at least a tiny bit sarcastic...

[untungl]

too bad i'm in the eternal contest, otherwise i'd pick these up...

[beatle]

BF - you know me well or long enough ...I'm only kidding

[kit99bar]

Changed my size to a 33 and crossing fingers they shrink from tagged!

Rather they be slightly too big than be too tight on my man parts.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

list is send out!

11 contestants

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Yuichi contacted me that he pre-ordered. But one size was already sold out at Samurai's. It's size 31but nobody had size 31. Maybe a typo. We will sort that out.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

So bad news for one person. Size 30 isn't available anymore. I'll contact the persons directly.

Here's something what Yuichi wrote:

Samurai said S500JX-LR would reach to me in late November or early

December.

Now size 28 , 31 , 34 , 35 , 38 and 40 are available.

But there are a few stock in each size.

quick question to all the contestants:

old-school-style: newspaper + raw jeans picture on 1/1/2011

or

start whenever we get the jeans?!

have you all got you paypal invoice for the deposit?

[Knugget]

newspaper would be cool, but i definitely wouldn't mind wearing them asap.

[kit99bar]

Asap since there is no real reason to wait!

either way is fine with me.

no invoice yet.

[nate]

I'm down for asap. But same here--no invoice yet.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

mhh...no invoice..that's Yuichi's "problem". The pairs are orderd (except for one that is)

ASAP is good for me too

[Knugget]

still no invoice,

could we get a proper update of who's actually in this?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

That's very strange...I paid over a week ago.

I'll check the status later this day

[Max Power]

I understand that you want to wear the jeans asap, but I'd love to see an old-fashioned newspaper start. But I guess my vote doesn't count here ;-)

[Knugget]

we could do a newspaper start when we receive our jeans, though i don't think everyone will start on the exact same date.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

I think we could decide that when everybody has his pair

[commodorewheeler]

still no invoice,

could we get a proper update of who's actually in this?

That's very strange...I paid over a week ago.

I'll check the status later this day

Still no invoice for me, either.

[bbtadd1ct]

Still here, no invoice

[beautiful_FrEaK]

it rather surprises me that people can't wait to pay

I wrote Yuichi that you finally want to pay. He'll get back at you

[bbtadd1ct]

just impatient to get these jeans haha

[kit99bar]

My guess: he doesn't want to charge until he actually has the jeans in case (due to the rarity or some odd accident) he doesn't get em. anyone else think so?

[beautiful_FrEaK]

might be a eraosn. but I though he would charge you the deposit to be on the safe side and not ending up with 5 jeans no one buys afterwards

[jaspar]

I`d even be happy to pay the full amount, today, since the exchange rate is the most favorable it`s been in weeks... Thanks to Obama`s impending visit to Japan? Clearly, I`m terrible at economics.

[beautiful_FrEaK]

newest information from Yuichi:

it sems that the release date will be end of december!

[Obbigood]

Got the invoice and paid for the deposit!

Thanks for the linked-up, b_F

[Knugget]

got mine too, but...

Japan Post will be halting shipment of packages over 16oz (453g) starting NOVEMBER 17

[mctaran]

Umhmhm, strange info about japan post

I also got invoice!

so i guess i can talk directly to Yuichi via email, to specify all details (hem, delivery etc), right?

[jaz13]

It not too late to jump in right? How do I order? I must be blind since I can't see it on k-pirates site. How much are these again?
