Hey I have a few questions for those who have bought stuff from www.kronekodow.com. I ordered a Ringo Box from them last week by using my local concierge service. The thing is its been a week and they haven't received it. For those who have ordered using similar services, how long does kronekodow usually take to send out stuff? I've only received an email that says that they've received my order. Will I receive any more updates when they ship it? Will there be any updates on the kronekodow site itself under the option for me to check my orders? Thanks

I am expecting not to get my hands on Ringo BoOK(s) until June. Shipping doesn't begin the instant the pre-order period ends. Ringo BoOKs don't ship out until May 27th.

They posted that release date a few lines above the Ringo BoOK. It's not even an 'update' after oh so many people overwhelmed the shop with orders. The site has had that note there ever since they first started accepting orders for the Ringo BoOK. It is probably a made-to-order item even for the people who aren't in the fanclub and getting theirs personalized.

Haha. I spent a semester in France after my semester in Japan. I've been in TX since (well, except for a summer in LA). I'll be here until a year from now, when I plan to go back to Japan to work, at least initially, as an English teacher. Then, I will renew my fanclub membership so I can score tickets and FINALLY see Ringo live.

I do know that they're only start sending in may. Just wondering about other orders for things that are in stock.

You might be the first EMFer to ever use Kronekodow's online shop for something other than a pre-order. I didn't even know until a week ago, how I could actually add any of their items to my shopping cart. Until that point, I was thinking of Kronekodow's "online shop" as more of an example page of stuff you could buy if you went to any recent concerts. It's very misleading how they structured that.

I have a couple of Ringo BoXes from months ago, but I didn't go through the frontier of finding out how responsive or unresponsive Kronekodow was, because I went through other people who bought from the tour instead of the online shop.

I'm just as curious as you, about how they're going to handle your Ringo BoX order, so keep us updated whenever you find out anything more. I think you are on your own for now.

Thanks I guess I could attempt to construct an email if the package doesn't arrive soon.

If anyone still feels that they may have missed out by not getting the first press Expo DVD then let these photos dispel that thought!

As for no disc pictures? well it's in the player and I can't be bothered powering it up just to eject it, you don't miss much anyway.

That's meant to be the musical score! what a load of false advertising! even if it's not a lot of music, a piece of A4 would have been nice.

When I got my box everything was rattling around inside it, including the disc! Seems like they could have fit a lot more into that box.

^ Yea, definitely. I really didn't know what to expect except for the sticker but when I saw that box, I thought I had won the lottery. Then I shook it. =(.
