Any 1 buy from 1999.co.jp before? I have a few items where 1999.co.jp still have stock while HLJ ran out of stock. Somemore it much cheaper than HLJ also.

If I buy 5 different items & total is less than 2KG from HLJ. Will I still get tax from Kastom? Izzit that the posman will drop the package at our door step?

BTW, I kind of confuse about the cost for SAL. i.e. the items that I want to buy:

(Price from item page)
Item cost: 2,000 yen
Weight: 370g
SAL: 880 yen

(Price from shipping cost page)
Weight: 400g
SAL: 500yen

So, the actual is 2,000 yen + 880 yen or 2,000yen + 500yen? Whcih 1 should I follow?

Just for my reference, any one here manage to get their reserve item when it release in Japan? I just reserved some hot items from Hobby Search which will be release on Oct.

I reserved the item the next day after they add the item in their website. Since this is my first time reserve item online, I worry that they will reserve the items for their regular customer while new customer have to wait.

Hi, there few things bugging my mindas:

If I pre-order a item from Hobby Search. Will it be cheaper than our local store or expensiver? I did a calculation between HLJ & Hobby Search shipping cost & both were different for the same item. Hobby Serach shipping cost much cheaper compare to HLJ.

As in risk, what soft of risk that we need to take if buying online? Custom tax were out of the question as Hobby search ship 1 item as 1 shipment.

Delievry get lost? Just for my reference. How many buyer here unluckily have their items lost during the delivery? It might help me on my decision making. Thank!

Izzit true that shipment above RM500 will be tax or is random base on luck? Cause my next shipment will be around RM800, else I need separete my shipment. How much they tax for sexy PVC figure (Cast off able)?

Between HLJ & Hobby Search, which offer the best price? I used to buy from Hobby Search, but lately their PVC figure getting expensive due to Yen price gone up. Now I looking for other online shop, any one can recommend a shop?

Guy! I looking for an online shop where I can pre-order limited/raw items from figure expo in Japan. Currently Hobby Search or HLJ doesn't sell any limited/raw items which were on sales during the figure expo in Japan.

Does it mean that my parcel will be tax? How much the tax for items value 22k yen?
