i've already asked yokattaweb early last month about the quotation for the gun version of Alisa.
The quotation given was:

Item price: 6,000yen
EMS to M'sia: 3,000yen

lol i think the shipping is estimated 1 , unless the d-arts alisa box is really that big .
*
the box shld be small, as only the weapon is changed, as compared to the current version, which i own...
but they requested the amount to be paid immediately, so i guess the cost is pretty much decided, no? hmm.gif

here is the exact email from them:

QUOTE
Hi,

Thank you for your inquiry.

It will be 6,000 yen to order this item.
Shipping estimation via EMS to Malaysia is 3,000 yen.

To proceed with ordering please send the amount above to: checkout@yokss.us
Please pay the Paypal fees by sending the payment as Personal Payment, or you can use other selection and we will charge you Paypal fees in separate payment.

Let us know once you have sent the amount, so we can confirm on the payment.
Please put the order number found on the title of this mail inside your payment as well.

Thanks!
perhaps the message is not clear....
but anyway, ive found a cheaper way to get the figure, so i will not proceed further with them

the paint job looks great in the photos
is it glossy finish like Alisa?
*
to be frank, the paint job in detail is quite messy sweat.gif
but you can't really see it from the photos...
compared to the flawless Alisa, it was difficult to accept it at the first place...
but having playing it for a while, its actually quite fun.... smile.gif

and oh, nothing glossy in this one.

amiami consistently sent out my orders at the next business day after payment is made.

and when i followed up politely with HLJ on the shipment status of my order after 3 business days from payment date, this is what i get:

QUOTE
Please understand that our packing staff processes close to a thousand orders per day--sometimes more than that--and it may take a few days for your order to be sent on its way.

Your order is currently in the process of being sorted, which means it's somewhere in the hundreds of sorting bins in our facility.  I am afraid I have no way of telling you exactly where your order is right at this moment.


nice one, HLJ rclxms.gif
this is my first time, and the last time shopping with you thumbup.gif
amiami beats you hands down rclxm9.gif

ps: actually mandarake lagi hebat: sent out on the same day as payment date! icon_idea.gif

That's the disadvantage of HLJ. However, they are the most forgiving when it comes to cancelling orders. Amiami and Hobby Search are quick with the banhammer if you have to cancel something without a very good reason.
*
most forgiving?
hehe...perhaps.
but i rather believe they are just too inefficient/lazy to layan orders cancellation smile.gif


QUOTE(shrike @ Jul 13 2013, 12:01 AM)
As for Mandarake, not all their stores are equal. Nakano is definitely the best store of them all, hands down. Fastest response, helpful staff, quick processing and delivery. Complex (Akihabara), Grandchaos and Umeda are decent as well but you should expect to wait 2-3 days for order confirmation. Be a bit careful with Fukuoka though, they aren't the most fluent in English so be wary of miscommunication.

thanks very much for these information! thumbup.gif
very very useful!!! thumbup.gif
