i once had a more than RM500 package... kanna custom tax~ that was regular fedex
fedex pays for you first, and u pay fedex when they give u the package haha

im expecting another customs tax for saber motored, it's the same except slower transits

Nendoroid Okarin and Sakura during Summer WonFes kthxbai.

Also.. this is such a far, far away dream of mine.. :

Damn is buddy buddy with big boss Aki. I can forsee nendo Mirai soon. Maybe next year? When Mirai millennium anime aired finish?

how much do you guys spend every month on figures? curious

i think he meant how much, not how 

nichol, you almost hit all the correct spots!!! that's exactly what im thinking, thanks for your corrections   
but for the "exclusive items" part, i think not all can be get directly from international direct, for example, the damn hobbyjapan limited stuffs, where the hobbyjapan online store is only for Japan sales only, that is seriously frustrating, then when i compared the pricing on Big in Japan + estimated shipping, is almost same as i get from local (although i dunno how the hell local store managed to get hobbyjapan exclusives    ).

PS: but i thought for SAL shipments, they are mostly 2-4weeks? that is what i saw in amiami page.... only EMS is within 1 week right? 
haha.... im not getting from xl-shop, their price is almost same like timemachine/ robot master, feels like being put on a chopping board...   
now i only have 2 pending shipments from amiami (one in july and the other one dunno delayed till when  ) and im using EMS....
my other 2 are from local stores (main reason is because already passed PO date  )

oh.... so actually registered SAL also not bad? if so, then i want to change my shipping method already 

i agreed, i also have to go high and low to find the ones that i want, but long gone... and here comes the legendary quote "BF; TL" 

yea, always prepare for the worst....
wa.... so high....

paypal rates higher than bank rates??? then should i use my debit directly on amiami or still via paypal?   
sigh... i also cant go this year...   

Just found the AFA website for this weekend at PWTC. Will they be selling things like Figmas and Nendos there? I noted that they have a "stop piracy" section where you can purchase stuff. Maybe I'll be able to get original versions of some of my favourite animes!

Now have to convince the wife to let me go...

all the luck to you! i have work on AFA day, so can't go

without work, i can't buy more figures

^ this is not nendoroid right? Figma?
