I'm trying to use Crescent for the first time and I don't really understand what I'm doing (lol)

I have a $50USD deposit and I was bidding on a NL USB that was 20JPY. I entered 50JPY as the auction was 3 mnutes to go and I don't think my bid was added. Even though it says on my Auction List that I've bid 50JPY.

Should the bids go through automatically or do they have to be added in by someone from Crescent (meaning I have to bid a high amount early instead of try and snipe like with eBay?)....do many people here use it?

I think it's possible to ask YesAsia to refund you in this case . Best for you to email them on this so that you can order via HMV HK

sorry Kendelle , am a noob in here as I don't use Crescent . I know members like LacusClyne , Earth Maiden have used their services a lot of times

you want to PM them on this ?

kendelle 14th May 2009 04:14 PM

Well, I got confirmation emails of my bids, so I guess they went though o__o; I might as well wait it out and see what happens. I just saw the 20Y USB and thought it was too awesome to miss! xDD All the other auctions I'm looking at end in a few days so I guess I'll keep checking back to see if the amount has increased ^^;

~angel*ayumi~ 14th May 2009 08:47 PM

So teh auction has allraeyd ended?
Then just look on the auction site and see whi is the highest bider to see if they did bid.

Blasterion 14th May 2009 11:47 PM

and they (crescent) will probably send you a mail if the bid was succesful or not..
I've never used Crescent before, but I used a few others and that's what they all do.
so you'll probably know soon.

yesasia won't allow you to cancel your order unless they confirm that they can't find it for you, so you have to wait at least a week for them to do resourcing.

your bid is automatically through. you can refresh your 'auction list' page to check if you are still the highest bidder, if you are it will show as 'on going', but if someone had place a bid higher then you, it will show 'raise' and 'give up' icons.

Yea I've read in YA help section. Anyway YA managed to reship the usb last week. Hope it will arrive safely this time.

By the way, Lacus, you bought your PCDL bath towel at the YA spring sale right? When YA shipped your item and when did u received it? I just want to estimate the shipping time of YA to Malaysia since Malaysia and SG are neighbour.

LacusClyne 18th May 2009 06:51 AM

^i think i receive it within 8 working days

Iyreen 18th May 2009 08:28 AM

^God. I think I can worry for my PCDL goodies now? *_* I wonder whats wrong with my item I bought from YA??? Im sure I've given them my correct shipping address..

LacusClyne 18th May 2009 10:47 AM

^don't worry yet, i had once wait for an order from them for 3 weeks

kendelle 22nd May 2009 09:59 AM

lol, free shipping usually = slow shipping. xD


So, I have another question relating to Crescent Shop - how am I able to order the Marionette box from mu-mo through them? Or anything from Japan-based online stores #__#

LacusClyne 22nd May 2009 03:04 PM

you can send a message to them under the message board with the url/what is the item/quantites, then they will reply you on the message board with the quotation.

If you agree with their price, then you pay through paypal, and after they receive your payment, they will order for you.

BUT the tricky thing is they don't accept preorders, you can only ask for a quotation after the item is available at mu-mo, so you have to take the risk that it might be sold out before they place your order.

Remember, the musical box is only available 18th june from 6pm japan time, so you have to hog the computer during that period(i'm planning to do that, i DIE DIE MUST HAVE IT!!!!!).

kendelle 25th May 2009 05:39 AM

^ Haha, I'll stay late at work and order it (because our home internet doesn't work!) ;__;

Iyreen 10th June 2009 11:14 AM

yay~ today I got 4 parcels at ONCE (postman pile up my parcels again -.-) and two of them are from the long awaited yesasia's NL Usb and PCDL goodies. Finally after so many weeks +_+
The other two are from Karen (around 3 weeks from Sg @_@) and Branv.

and the USB that I got is the reship one.I guess the original shipment is really lost.

nanakopy87 10th June 2009 11:45 AM

wow...good to hear that you've received your parcel although its quite long =.="

3 weeks for a parcel from singapore???? it sounds ridiculous, what on earth is the malaysia postal service doing? they get paid for being lazy....

nanakopy87 10th June 2009 04:10 PM

i think its good already because they don't lost it :p

yea I agree. You know what, Karen actually sent the item earlier than u send the ayupan, but I got yours much more earlier than Karen's. Guess they cant be lazy for registered mail but super lazy for regular air mail.

KarenPang 10th June 2009 05:37 PM

I mailed out stuff to people living in different states of Malaysia before so I understand that

it doesn't matter now , at least you have received the DVD from me already :yes

Iyreen 10th June 2009 06:11 PM

yeap, its fine as long as I got the item, but I dun like their attitude (Malaysian postal service) for always delaying. They can work on time on registered stuff so why not for regular airmail since the speed between registered and non-registered is same It just registered need to be sign by receiver while regular is not, thts the only diff. Well..waiting is suffering for me at least when it started to reach months or so. Sometimes I feel the speed is like im using SAL instead of regular airmail +_+
Too bad I cant afford EMS much since the cost is killing me.

nvm, I'll better stop complaining because I know I aredi said about this for so many times aredi :P
