I am currently working in Australia.
Games in Australia is expensive.

EBGames sell the most expensive

JB Hifi/ Target and other retailers tend to be cheaper.

Collector's edition tend to be exclusive to EBGames.

So let's take some games into consideration.

Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Collector's Edition

Gamestop is selling for USD 99.99

EBGames Australia is selling for AUD 249.99

I know EU MGS V is selling at British Pound 100. But still comparing UK with AUS (Both same version) AUS is fucking expensive.

Hence try avoiding buying stuff from Australia. I forsee this being sold at AUD 250 - 300

Plus shipping and all... it will be insane.

With that being said, it will cost you all minimum RM 1,000 if you all get collector's edition from Australia

However I do really hope it's between AUD 150 - AUD 200

Fingers cross

However, if there is a need of assistance in obtaining the stuff. I will gladly help with some charge.

I will be able to get preorder codes and such rofl!

As a tax accountant here in Australia...
I am laughing hard on the GST Implementation

The Government is still clueless with the GST classification.

I've been trying to search amazon japan with ff14 and it only shows realm reborn.
I had to type ファイナルファンタジーXIV and it finally showed heavesward.
Indication on shelf price, not sure total package gonna cost how much to be delivered to Malaysia.
I got a big bad feeling with 6% GST and the piece of dragon is not going to be light.
Worst of all.. >RM500 -> got tax zzzzzzzzzzz

I'm not sure the others.
Seems that yoshida had intention to make physical heavenward ce stocks very limited.
For ps3 and ps4, there's a fix price. However for pc, the price was stated open.
Based on the previous purchased quantity, yoshida anticipated that heavenward ce will sold out very quickly for the pc version.
I'm not sure how limited for ce digitals.  My guess is that digital ce might be not be that limited for early preorder bonus. But there'll be a timeframe of at least a few days before they halted the early preorder bonus sales and resume the normal ce digital.

Digital CE is almost 1/2 the price of physical CE.

Bro
I have to disagree with that

It maybe limited to JP but NA and EU there is still heaps of stock.

Only in Japan the price is open which I don't understand why.

NA and EU are fixed price.

Retailers will soon get too however limited stock.

So far SE NA/EU shop still have stock

Many in Australia are getting local retailers to get it too.
JB Hifi and EBGames Australia have informed us that they have not gotten anything from their distributor yet.

Square Enix distributor btw is Bandai Namco Australia rofl.

JB Hifi has told one of the players that they are trying to secure some due to the overwhelming number of request for the item.

Here's hoping I can get one of these badasses.

You from subang jaya or johor 0.0.
Thought your nearest location would be Heavyarm.
If cannot, might as well just try your luck on qishan as well.
Tell them the case and see how much chances they can bring in EU copy as well.
EU copy is currently unavailable not because it's sold out but the eu se store site facing technical difficulties.Once they resolve the issue, i'm sure orders will be open up to many places .

All Retailers were not given details and the green light

Right now, EBGames Australia and NZ has just been given the green light

Expect more details from other major retailers.

We mentioned this on another thread, but we can confirm that the physical (boxed) Collector's Edition will definitely be available at certain retailers (EB Games included) in Australia and New Zealand.
Please rest assured that we will share additional information on retailers and pre-order start dates when available.

let get spam se's email box lol on why the hell is excluded.

Well it is because even though EU is known for international distribution, locally it is restricted to EU Region only.
SE and other publishes should consider Asian Market other than Japan

What you could do is wait for other online retailers such as greenmangaming.

Basically get from the people who you previously gotten from.

I may open services to assist in getting collector's edition with added fee tongue.gif

Still waiting for pricing in Australia hehe

Amazon UK has posted it, but not sure which version is which.

Well it is UK..
I highly doubt it is JP or NA haha!

It is known that Asian countries were given minimal attention for so many years.
Until a reputable retailer willing to step up and help distribute the games and deal directly with distributor, I don't see such things from happening.

Right now, retailers in Malaysia deals from third party retailers themselves too (Majority Singapore Retailers) and they are not obligated to actual distributor policies... ie shelfing and distributing games to customers on the approved date.

Retailers in Malaysia, when they get the game, they immediately sell it.

That is why gamers in Malaysia, at times loose out preorder items or codes.

Gamers in Malaysia do get if they copy is first batch and such sad.gif

Maybe if majority of the asians willing to step up and make a ruckus of such incident, se team will have no choice but to do something about it.
If not, most of the time they'll just play dumb dodging the problem.
And it's not the first time such question has been raise and till now yoshida with his team were dodging it .
They always simply made a vague short reply about it like "We'll do something about it in future" When was that "future" we always heard off. Nothing but simply a brush off so that they can simply skip the question.

Do you think it is cost effective to open a distribution center for Asia?

The gaming presence here is low.

Not enough to draw their attention

They could get Japan to distribute the Asian Edition but oh well

QUOTE(shojikun @ Mar 18 2015, 03:16 PM)
just like the Aussie when YoshiP come visit them

He came to Sydney and say the connection is bad...
Acknowledged the problem but no solution haha!

Yes, as long as it is during pre-order period, which I think runs until 16th of June?

No, I don't recall local retailers getting pre-order codes.

That was from my recollection.

Maybe ask those who pre-order from Heavyarms.

If you want those pre-order items, best to order online from authorised online retailers as the codes will be distributed before hand.

The price for getting EU collector physical copy won't be cheap.
I believe that's the reason why many of our retailers pulled the handbrake.
129.99£=RM711.62 plus freight charges. ??? It'll be around 40-50£.
So total is somewhere around RM900.
*
Well yea.. however GBP is only applicable to London.

I was told other EU countries are being charged as €129.99 = RM515.36

Here's hoping to € and not the almighty £
