    Error message 503.... lol...lol....my 20 year old daughter ended up making a song from that green error message from the many many tries to order but she was relentless. We had my order on my laptop, my iphone, my ipad, and her iphone. We were using 4g and wi-fi....whatever would go through....i had the green error box, the error 503 and the shopping cart was emptied about 3 times.....we screamed with disbelief when our order finally went through after 2 hours....we started at 8 pm PST and got through at 10 pm....i received the email telling me that my order will ship on Sept 6....then the waiting (stalking) really begins....

      You two are *serious* Hobonichi fans, Jackie! 😁 I just have my desktop computer, and I was totally punished for having the cheapest internet plan that made everything slow as molasses. I WISH my order had gone through in 2 hours! When I finally got through, my eyes were glazed over, I was so tired. 😴 The e.mail I got said my order would ship sometime between Sept. 6th and 9th. I hope you and your daughter love your new stuff when it arrives!! 📦✨

      Humblechan i seriously debated between ordering from the Hobonichi website or buying from a store in my area that would have at least the English planner in stock and maybe a couple of covers in stock around October - but I was hopeful that the Hobonichi website would be able to handle the thousands and thousands of orders this time around since they are aware of problems in previous years...I think our persistence was more of wanting to see how long we can last in the process....and since it was still early enough in the evening here in San Francisco,CA. and we were just chit chatting and snacking anyway....we just kept on hitting that refresh button and trying again....we probably would have tried even up to midnight since we were still awake anyway.....but you are the TRUE fan!!!!! Omg i wouldn't have lasted 6 hours!!!

    • @Humblechan

      Aw, I'd love to be able to buy Hobonichi stuff locally! 🛍️ Even though it was madness trying to order, I was totally a willing participant. 💳😁 I didn't have anything else to do [other than sleep!], and I was snacking, too. 🍿😃 I don't think trying for 6 hours makes me a truer fan than anyone else -- it just means I'm *CRAZIER*!! 🤣😅

    • @journalingjackie284

      Humblechan i'm so looking forward to your unboxing video!!!!! Hopefully we will be receiving our orders next week. I wonder if everyone will have a yellow box. I saw someone's unboxing video (he is from Japan) and his order came in a yellow box.

    WOW you are a true fan. I tried to order for about 30 minutes. I kept keeping the error of "death" sign, my order was kicked out of my cart twice. Finally I thought, "I'll order the Techo from "Jet pens" keep my old cover (that I love), and spend that money (shipping costs I mean) on pens or stickers or something. Like others, when I saw Grumpy cat I knew what this video would be about. I am glad to know there were others which ordering difficultly-I thought it was just my computer.

    Thanks for sharing your experience! I am looking forward to a version of the same when I make my first official release order in September! I’m so excited I could hurl! The journal page you made was so much fun! I love these videos! I hope you will make more of these, but truthfully, I love everything you do!

  • @amystevlingson4409
    @amystevlingson4409 7 років тому

    I'm glad you were able to get the covers you wanted. I was fortunate because I didn't have my heart set on any particular cover. I had decided to buy one of the solid color covers but if it had been sold out, I wouldn't have cared that much. I waited until the next morning and placed my order around 6:30am Mountain time on September 1st. Everything went through the first time without a single glitch. The entire process took me about 7 minutes including resetting my password since I couldn't remember my old one. Piece of cake!

  • @fionagrocott
    @fionagrocott 7 років тому +2

    Haha! As soon as I saw those grumpy cat stickers I knew you had a hard time ordering - over 6 hours though?! That's dedication! I'm still undecided what to get, but shall probably order next month. I can't wait to see your haul! 🤗

    I'm sorry to hear about all the issues people had! I guess I got lucky because I started at 9:15pm (which is 11:15 Japan) and my order was complete by 10:00pm. I did have 1 time of the cart emptying and then a few errors to refresh during checkout, but nothing as major I was reading about! It's good to hear that most people were still able to get most of their targeted items. This is only my 2nd year getting a Hobonichi, but I can't wait for shipping and delivery! :3 I think this is the hardest part.

  • @rebecca_lane_
    @rebecca_lane_ 7 років тому +1

    I was glad to be in the UK (where release was around 4am - no way) so missed all the madness, went online at 9am BST and got all that I wanted and merged with items on hold within 2 minutes. Smooth sailing 😊

  • @tracyd9099

    aww! love those grumpy cat stickers 💓...I was a newbie to ordering and we had a 3 am start! I fell asleep but luckily woke up at 2 am. I wanted the bird flower willow cover which might sell out so I thought I should try for it. I was lucky...I only had 50 minutes of clicking and I got through to check out! also got two Tokyo cocs! I haven't had one before because they weren't supplied in the shop I got this year's planner from. I feel I got off lightly....loads of people couldn't get through all night. it was insane, you're right! not sure I'll do it again...might just go on when it's quiet next time and choose from what's left! I stayed up watching and chatting to people in the hobonichi group...so tired next day! 😦

  • @JulieloopsJAM
    @JulieloopsJAM 7 років тому

    Omg! The insanity!! I waited until the morning, filled my cart, checked right out.. smooth sailing. BUT I will say that there was no real rush for me as I was ordering for my daughter and she had numerous covers she liked so it really didn't matter if one or two were sold out. I'll post the unboxing when it arrives.. I may have purchased a few things for myself too :)

  • @abigailgoetsch8252

  • @cherylclough4309
    @cherylclough4309 7 років тому

    You poor thing! You deserve the order. Hope it comes quickly for you. Can't wait to see the video of the order!! I'm trying to hold off ordering so I don't have to pay shipping charges more than once. I want the weeks Mega for work and I need another cousin for pretty planning and daily planning and I want the hedgehog weeks just cuz it's so darn cute! But I also want the new Hobonichi five year and that's not coming out till DECEMBER! Can I wait that long. Thanks for tuning me into Grumpy Cat. I kept track of weather for eclipse w/ grumpy cat. Those stickers are sooooo cute. Must have some! Thanks for great video.

    Omgoodness!! Why did i not see this video prior to my order! I had no idea you could merge orders!!
    Love your videos BTW. The first one I watched was your video about adopting Wilbur.. got all the feels and I’m totally in love with your channel!!

  • @lindagardellini6321
    @lindagardellini6321 7 років тому

    I didn't order until about 10 hours after the launch, but I still had problems! Took me over an hour....my cart kept emptying too! And that green server busy message was driving me insane! I just kept refreshing and refreshing. Hobonichi is lucky it has such loyal and dedicated (or perhaps crazy!) customers! :)
    Looking forward to seeing what you ordered when your package arrives!

  • @artfulyama9071
    @artfulyama9071 7 років тому

    I'm glad you got your order in. Wow, that is true endurance! I only ordered the A6 Hobonichi book (English version with the little bear...forgot the name but with no cover. I use a TN cover for my Hobo). I actually ordered on Sept 2nd without difficulty. But I've had trouble at the site before. Congrats! 👍 Enjoyed your video very much! More!!

  • @marija
    @marija 7 років тому

    It was 2am where I am, that everything went on sale, so I waited until around 8am, and managed to get everything in about 2 hours of error messages. I'm quite thankful that I am used to this kind of intense ordering from all the concert tickets I buy online at release! Phew!
    Looking forward to your haul! Xx

    • @Humblechan
      @Humblechan  7 років тому +1

      That's awesome that you've had a lot of practice with intense ordering, so ordering from Hobonichi wouldn't have been too crazy of an experience! 💳😁 I've only done this sort of thing for Hobonichi, so after all that trying, I felt like I needed to recover. 🛌💤 Looking forward to sharing my haul with you! 📦😃

  • @isabel.Cc7
    @isabel.Cc7 7 років тому

    i had the same exact experience as you haha!! i can't believe i went through that either! i started at 10pm est and didn't get through until 3:40ish am!! i felt like a zombie by the end just repeteadly refreshing...but i was really worried the bird flower willow cover would sell out but i got it in the end! i don't think i'll put myself through that again though hahaha

  • @ohaijoy
    @ohaijoy 7 років тому

    OMG 6 hours 🙀 That was definitely me last year. I think the hobonichi gods smiled down on me this year because it only took me 50 minutes this year. My cart also seemed like it was emptying out but I waited a few minutes and everything appeared again. I also tried a tip from the facebook groups and kept clicking checkout over and over like a maniac. Worked like a charm. Now more waiting 😿

  • @VeganOrganizer
    @VeganOrganizer 7 років тому +2

    Same for me - it took five and a half hours! I also got the 503 message, then the green 'servers are busy' message, then the 503 message again - and my cart kept emptying, about seven or eight times I think! :((( I took a nap in the middle for about an hour and a half because I live in the UK and the launch was at 3am. My order finally went through around 9am the next morning and I then went in to work having only had an hour and a half of sleep all night! How we suffer for our Hobo addictions, right?!?!

  • @norelislee5310
    @norelislee5310 7 років тому

    I had a similar experience! But it just made me want to order more stuff! Craziest best experience ever! So excited to get my order!!!

    • @Humblechan
      @Humblechan  7 років тому +2

      "But it just made me want to order more stuff!" 💳😁 You made me laugh, Norelis! Even though it was such an insane shopping experience, it was kind of neat to imagine so many Hobonichi fans around the world, trying and trying to get their orders through because we're all so excited about this one thing. 🌎

    • @norelislee5310
      @norelislee5310 7 років тому

      Humblechan craziest part of it all, I was in our car while driving back home to Florida from
      a road trip, so I was sitting there refreshing and refreshing to the point I got us lost because I forgot to help with directions. I was in the passengers set of course but the stress of hobonichi didn't help me in the hours we had left to drive home. Lol.

  • @gtiger766
    @gtiger766 7 років тому

    I had the same trouble. I couldn't even get things to go into my cart at first. But alas, I finally got them into my cart but I couldn't place the order... That darn 503 message. I finally went to bed and was able to order the next morning. But so many things were Japan only. Things I have ordered in the past are now Japan only.

  • @MyLittleJournal
    @MyLittleJournal 7 років тому

    Girl you are a major fan!!! I didn't even bother because I want the Beatles cover and it doesn't go on sale until the first of October 😔 So I have to wait!!! So happy you got what you wanted 🤗

    Seriously ... this video is priceless, I am sorry that I am laughing so much but the page you made of your ordering hell is just adorable ... Tartar sauce is so appropriate, I love her. I hope you didn't have to go anywhere that morning you would feel like you had jet lag LOL. I love the pens you used and that clock stamp is adorable. And is that a cat ring you are wearing? How cute is that!!!! Can't wait for your unboxing 😍

    • @karenbecks9906
      @karenbecks9906 7 років тому

      Hmmm so maybe I should have read your links first and then I would see that it is a cat ring!!! Haha I love it. I was just too eager to watch your video I am a little behind and I get so excited when I see yours come up. Hope you're doing well ❤️

  • @BlushnBlue
    @BlushnBlue 7 років тому

    I was so terrified because I really wanted the Hobonichi Techo A6 Steiff and it said that there was only one left. So I did not spend time on shopping (would have purchased more items :-( ) but it kept kicking me out and then just like you I would finally make it to check out with credit card but it kicked me out again. Then when I went back to the Steiff Hobo it said sold out...ugh. I kept refreshing and finally it showed available ....yay. It took me 30min which compared to you that is not too bad but wished I could have bought more. They will be shipping soon! Looking forward to your next video.

  • @taniat.3578

    @chanooodle 7 років тому

    First thing..... I literally squeeled when I saw your new video because I was so looking forward to hearing you're any about order madness hahha. My friend and I ordered together to save on shipping.... And she ended up volunteering to order... It took her from 7pm here in BC... Til midnight!! I felt so bad 🙈😢 but I got the cat trio A5 cover too!! I'm so so so happyyyyy ❤️

    • @Humblechan
      @Humblechan  7 років тому

      Aw, thank you so much, Chanel!! 💜💙💚💛❤️ That's so nice of your friend to tough it out and volunteer to do the ordering! You can always make it up to her by taking on the ordering next year! 💻😁 That's so awesome that you got Cat Trio, too!!! 💕😻 Totally suits us cat-loving stamp carvers, eh? 😸😽😺

  • @StudioBAS
    @StudioBAS 7 років тому

    I got on the site right at launch time which was at 7pm for me, and it was pretty bad. It was glitchy and not adding items to my cart, and then I couldn't check out because the servers were busy. Also got the error messages! A couple times I made it to the sign in, and then it froze and my cart got cleared! I must have tried for about 3 1/2 hours on and off, then I just decided to go to bed. The next morning I ordered and it was super easy! One of the A5 covers I wanted was sold out, but I got everything else on my list. I can't wait to get my box!! :D

    • @Humblechan
      @Humblechan  7 років тому

      Ah, so we faced the exact same madness! 🤦🏻 I needed to click the add to cart button 2 or 3 times for each item just for the possibility of adding an item to the cart. 😕💻 Ha!
      I totally understand just wanting to go to bed after 3 1/2 hours of trying! 🛌💤 I'm sorry to hear that one of the covers you wanted was sold out, but I'm glad you were able to get everything else you wanted! Hope you'll share your haul on YT! 📦😃

    • @StudioBAS

    @ashley_smith 7 років тому

    I ended up waiting one day to order. My cart emptied out soooooo many times. Then the internet completely went down for six hours. Thanks Mediacom. One item I wanted ended up being sold out, but only that one. Oddly enough, even though I ordered on the 2nd, the email says it won't ship until the 11th or 12th. Strange. Maybe because it's a large order? I don't even know....

  • @Sharon-G
    @Sharon-G 7 років тому

    I got my order done with no trouble on Sept. 1. for myself and my daughter. Now I'm excitedly waiting to see what color the box will be! Lol. I think purple and she thinks yellow. I know that in
    2014 it was orange
    2015 it was green
    2016 it was blue
    2017 it was pink
    I save my boxes and use them to store things in!

    • @Humblechan
      @Humblechan  7 років тому

      I'm so sorry for the trouble, Terrie! I don't know what in the world UA-cam did to my video, but I was able to watch it in 720p the night I uploaded it, and now I don't even see the 720p option. ?!%$@?! I record, edit and save all of my videos in the same way, so I'm not sure what's going on or why there are playback issues. I hope YT will stop messing around, but you know how YT is... 💻😢
