How in the living daylights can I get one? They are selling like hotcakes and they look INCREDIBLE. It seems that only Koreans are allowed to get them. I've tried 5 times. Very annoyed. Anyone had any luck?

I hear you can order one 8 weeks in advance.

My coworker brought one in today and it was huge. Two slices filled me up. Pretty tasty too, although I admit that my last memory of an American pizza was some 6 months ago so I'm not the best judge.

None the less I am going to go tomorrow and try to get one on my own.

You just need to go really, really early if you want one.

It's the same size as a Costco pizza but it cost 11,500. Very Happy

They charge too much and deliver a bad product. Who YOU want that pizza? Well, would YOU?

That's why I only go to Pizza School. 100% real cheese and only 5 bucks.

I know about the Pizza School pizzas. I also know about the Pizza Maru pizzas. Great prices. In the time I've been here, I always got pizza from those places because the Pizza Hut or Mr. Pizza prices are insane. It's Saturday night. If you want to get a pizza at E-Mart tomorrow, you have to get there (seriously) by 9:15 AM.

We're talking about PIZZA, too. Unbelievable. I went there last Saturday at 9:30, and there was a line that was leading throughout the entire building. They cut off the last 10-15 people (which included me). I couldn't believe it. I was initially told that by 10 AM I would be able to get a pizza. I've eaten one, but I've never bought one. Although I've seen tons of them given to Korean people who were standing next to me. I'm a white guy. If I don't get one tomorrow, I'm going to flip. Haha. J/K. Twisted Evil

300 pies a day is the maximum that the baking ovens in most E-Marts can handle, or so I've been told. Costco's ovens, on the other hand, have far bigger capacity.

'Please come back in 3 hours' is an agony given Korean bbali-bbali spirit, hence there are always a handful of quitters among the 300. After all this isn't Sparta. Sometimes those quitters make room for late-comers. Even so, there's no way for you to know beforehand. Twisted Evil
