hana yori-what?
The Hana Yori Dango Final dvd came out... two days ago... now three since I'm posting this at an ungodly hour.
My local Borders was supposed to receive a shipment. Or at least thats what they told me.
Here's the story. I go in to my Borders as soon as I hear that the dvd is going to be released in America. I had seen it last summer in Japan and then on my plane going back to Japan in late July early June so I was extremely EXTREMELY excited for this.
I go in, a lady that works there helps me with the computer. Telling me that if I order and reserve it here, it will come to the store and I will just have to pick it up and pay for it when it arrives. Fine, okay.
So I do that with the lady there mind you. And I go today, two days after it comes out, two days after the dvd is supposed to be in store. Now I'm not doubting the power of "The" Jun Matsumoto, but lets just say HYDF really isn't in demand in Pompton Lakes/Riverdale NJ.
THATS WHY I ORDERED THE BLASTED THING.
Anyway, I go into the store to see if it's there... which according to what the lady told me... it should be.
My mom wants me to ask another worker just in case they didn't set it aside for me (my Borders is the WORST Borders in the Tri-State area. Don't go there.)
So, I ask the lady, she goes... "Spell that for me."
I spell it.
"H-A-N-A... space.... yeah there's a space there Y- no Y-... yeah..."
It went on for about 30 minutes. We finally get it though and I was like "Maybe we should put 'Final'" after it.
No need since it should show up anyway.
It doesn't show up.
They weren't even getting a shipment in.
No where around me is getting a shipment in.
Oh... I could have lost it. It was supposed to go to the store, but apparently not since they decided to change their policy during this order saying "You order it online, then pick it up in the store. WE PAY FOR SHIPPING 8D"
...The whole luxury of this was to get it IN the store and not make my mom use her credit card to pay for it online. My mom is a teacher and she doesn't work during summer, so money is tight, so I refrain from asking for just about anything Arashi related (if I can get it at Kinokuniya) and the like. The whole point was to not make her use her credit card. She of course wants to because she noticed how disgruntled I was at the whole thing. I'm thinking about just paying the overly priced amount at my Kinokuniya, but I honestly didn't want to spend about 50 bucks on a dvd I could have gotten for about 28 at Borders.
Uncool Borders.
I thought you were uncool before for comparing Sho to Falco; but this is far worse. YOU MESSED WITH MY FANDOM _-_
I'm hoping my Barnes and Nobles isn't as lame.
