lol I actually have only scored once from them. Usually they list the good items already sold out. But today the elusive red skullwing was in my grasp... so close, but I was nervious and hacked up on coffie that I couldnt type fast enough.
I thought once you added it to cart that it was yours but I guess I was wrong because it was sold out by the time I hit the submit button....
Better luck next time fellas better luck next time ( waving fist at the screen)

The only thing that makes missing out easy to take is that I'm in good company.
Freaking Madarake. Such a crap-shoot.
Good score who ever go it!

putting it in your cart does nothing

The $90 Cocky is the only thing I've ever struck lucky on!
Prices are definitely on the up over there though, even the damaged and incomplete (no bag/headers) pieces are hitting $100+.
The Skullwing was a steal though.

Just get it and go! I'd love the red skullwing, but I bet I'll never get it 
What did it go for if you don't mind me asking?

so if there's something you want just strike Definetly! They had a HUGE sale a few months back and I got my ass up at 5 o'clock A.M. hitting the refresh button continuously. Got on - put three or four things in the cart and got skunked. They have a weirder shopping cart system then TT over there!!!
You are not the first nor will you be the last LASH my man. Your in good company! Welcome to the Madarake I FART A LOT slap!

I dont understand why Mandarake "backtracks' when listing new items.
For instance, the 8/12 items will be nothing but hentai, yet on the 14th
some SB items will have been posted and gone. Why don't they just post the latest items on the latest day? Makes no sense to me.

I really think it has to do with the volume of items the stores get in on any given day. They have several around Japan. I think the Kaiju fights are just snapped up really quick cause they are so popular (unfortunalty) at the moment. Lots of little fingers doing the shopping as it were.
And LASH - empty the cache and get on with your life!!!! Quit living in the past man!!
Oh - SNAP! That was my 1000th post!!! Shit!
