They didn't give any reason, but the product is unavailable now on the site so I presume they sold too many.Oh no, do you know what happenend?
I suspect that might not be true, but that the site is lagging to catchup with actual stock. I'm giving it 24 hours before deciding how to feel about this launch.
TBF, the Totoro launch didn't really have issues for me - could get the cardholder I wanted and if I hadn't hesitated on the price...the puzzle I wanted. And IIRC was released at a more humane hour for Australia. It's like 3am here...and I'm not even sure what made me wake up just in time for the email link.
Woke up at 3am to try and get a piece from this collection. 4:40am, and the payment still won't process... I think the website broke

I’m hoping my orders don’t get cancelled this time.Wow 3am- did you get anything this time?
FYI: you can sort items by availability/in stock via the filters. It seems to be accurate (not talking about the actual stock and lagging)
Hmm, I don't remember hearing about so many payment rejection issues last year (and I had my card information initially declined too this time around, until I unblocked it via my bank)... At least for my own experience, I had a fairly smooth checkout process last year IIRC (and was fortunate enough not to have my 2 small items cancelled), whereas this year, it seems to me like the website was more overloaded, hence lagging really badly at every step of the way (and the payment rejection issues might perhaps be linked to this too?).
In terms of the orders actually going through (and availability of the items), I think we might still have to wait and see -- whether there are a heap of cancellations again might be the determinant for whether this launch went better than last year's or not, IMHO...
I agree with the bolded part, now that we're seeing more items showing up as sold out, I'm thinking that it was actually the laggy website (and people having difficulties checking out and completing their orders) that made it seem as though there was more stock / fewer sold-out items earlier on. And now that the website is less laggy and people are able to put their orders through, items have therefore been selling out. (I'm hoping that there isn't actually an issue with delays between a product actually selling out vs. when the website actually reflects the product as being sold out, though -- 'cuz that's when we may see order cancellations like last year's Totoro launch againI suspect that might not be true, but that the site is lagging to catchup with actual stock.

Phew!
Got the Kaonashi bracelet pouch, a Susuwatari charm and the Kaonashi bifold wallet for me, and the Kaonashi oversized tee for my partner.
I can't believe the pouch and the wallet are the same price.
The actual bags were a bit too pricey for me...so fingers crossed more Susuwatari puzzles get released next year
^ Got those items - and apparently too many clicks went through so ended up with 2 Kaonashi bifold wallets. >.>
Which is why at first glance I was shocked that the wallet cost as much as the pouch
Maybe they've restocked already, the Bo mouse cardholder just showed stock again! Checked out in a hurry
YMMV on this - I am 180cm tall, and when I tried on the RTW in the store, I had to get L for the soot sprite tees (the sooty anagram and the multicolor anagram) as well as the Boh with bird tee, but for the Zeniba tee I was actually comfortably fitting in the XS! Got an S for that. My partner is also my height but stockier, and he got an L for the Kaonashi tee. I would have fit into the S of that tee. Long story short, it's very challenging to figure out exactly what fits without trying instore, which is something that's quite frequent with Loewe's RTW.
I had the items in my cart shortly after I received the link and was ready to check out but I decided to walk away because I realized I really only wanted the items because they were limited edition.
I can’t wait to see everyone post their items once they arrive. Please share some eyecandy with us once you have them!

I second this! Although I couldn’t snag anything, I would love to live vicariously through you all and see some fun goodies!
Somehow the spirited away candle appears on sale on the site? For about 20 euros?
