hi guys, recently i got attracted to nendoroids(their cuteness beh tahan lah), so now im in the long but quite enjoyable(a bit painful ==") process of reading thru all the nendoroids threads b4 this, to know more abt them. im wanting to start collecting nendoroids, bt since im still a student, and my parents would think im crazy if i ask their consent to use their credit card for online purchases, so can any1 give some suggestions on how i could purchase? im especially looking for some old ones such as L, K-on n shana nendo. i guess i would hav to buy locally then, right?

hmm, i thought paypal = must hav credit card, n would buying overseas b very much more expensive than buying locally? Added on May 4, 2012, 1:24 amQUOTE(Nichol90 @ May 4 2012, 01:18 AM) Find a local store/seller that accepts COD? Since credit cards/paypal aren't available, and you're looking for old ones, try looking around in garage sales?  There are also local sellers who can help you search for older items e.g. momotoys, timemachine (sorry, don't know anymore lol). And if all else fails there's always sakura for those pesky nendos you just can't seem to find elsewhere lol im ok with bank in actually, and whats/whos sakura?

lol, i gave up with paypal a year ago, if they have reload systems then it would solve my problem perfectly, so these nice forumers you mentioned, basically they help find whatever you want and settle all things for you and post it to you, for an extra charge, right?

QUOTE(Nichol90 @ May 4 2012, 01:25 AM) I am not sure about the paypal part, because I was under the impression you could "reload" money into paypal and use it like that...could be wrong though lol ..that would depend. If you're getting regular stuff that have just been released/going to be released, getting them direct from JP is (usually) cheaper than getting them locally. If you're looking at older, no longer in-stock stuff (such as exclusive/limited nendos) , then it really wouldn't matter whether you got them locally or overseas, you're going to get goreng'd anyway lol. Getting stuff overseas of course, means having to deal with shipping costs and kastams lol Sakuradesune. Who will probably appear in the thread if you summon her nicely  hm, i see on GSC website for the release of super sonico, its 3500yen, plus shipping 2000 yen, which is 5500yen, which is around RM200, so u mean buying locally would b even more expensive than this? i thought local stores are only selling nendos at around 1++? correct me if im wrong

QUOTE(Yoshii-kun @ May 17 2012, 04:38 PM) Partly because amiami is an online based wholesale distributor. It mayb a gsc product, bit since amiami deals in much more merchandise, (and read smth like jp tax not applicable for international but i dont think so), profit margin is higher in quantity to make up for the discount. Since thy sell so much stuff, a few discounts aint a problem  oh thx =), so ordering from amiami or local shops such as XL cheaper?
