Nanami Chiaki up for PO
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10277318 Should i PO it or i should wait it release? Any sifu can forecast if this figure would price drop after release? http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gc...006176&page=top Amiami is cheaper, but amiami used to cost more for shipping because of their boxing, right?

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ May 27 2014, 12:03 PM) I want that one, but i dont think i will PO. I also didnt PO Kirigiri, but on her release i'll snatch her off Amiami i think QUOTE(jayjay11 @ May 27 2014, 12:05 PM) Since this is by phat.I was thinking to get from frontier station cause they are selling at retail price The current discounted price add up shipping i guess is closed to the retail price. Just want to ask if after release. Is that always have price dropped until could conpensate the shipping, and probably save more? I am refering to EMS and excluding those bargain sales of coz. |

QUOTE(EXkurogane @ May 27 2014, 05:28 PM) Whichever that is faster to me. I'm ok with price difference by RM 20 or 30, depends. When i saw Kyouko it was an instant wanted figure, ranked 1st on my wanted list. If i grab her off amiami by Registered SAL i should receive her in about 15-18 days average (my fastest experience was 12 days). If i have that cash to burn, i'd go for EMS. Given the amount of accessories, EMS might cost as much as an additional 3000yen, so i think Registered SAL is good enough. On her release day i might buy straight away without waiting long. Is that only amiami got registered SAL?Hobby search only mention SAL. Registered SAL is not trackable, right? I know that SAL will be cheaper. I wonder How does the postman treat SAL package? |

btw, BIJ preordering for 9999 yen
http://biginjap.com/en/pvc-figures/9586-da...ami-chiaki.html anyone bought from Big in Japan before? It seems like it credit card payment is direct charged you even for pre order item and the shipping it also direct calculated even the figure is not release yet QUOTE(EXkurogane @ May 27 2014, 06:37 PM) How postman treats them (between unregistered and registered) im not so sure, so far i got my registered SAL packages in perfect condition all the time, but i'd assume HS is using Registered SAL to avoid running into issues. there will have a tracking number for registered SAL?I guess i would stick with EMS for safe. QUOTE(EXkurogane @ May 27 2014, 06:57 PM) may i know is there any charges or different for using direct charging our credit card or via paypal?QUOTE(zito9 @ May 27 2014, 07:54 PM) HS does offer registered SAL. i see, thats a good information How to do it: 1. Choose the normal SAL in the shipping option. 2. Put in a request in the comment column that you want REGISTERED SAL. 3. HS will add in the registered cost (410JPY) into your SAL cost when they bill you. This post has been edited by edwardccg: May 27 2014, 11:35 PM |

QUOTE(jayjay11 @ May 31 2014, 02:09 PM) 2 difference address means 2 difference parcel. Will probably treat as different shipment they do random check? i thought they are checking for every item? Depends on luck. If you parcel is pick up for random check.... then you would either go all the way to KLIA or you sent an agent to do it for you, to get your parcel open and checked Most of the time i have 3-4 figures to same address. no problem your 3-4 figure to same address, does it come in the same batch? I wonder they would add up all the value of the 3-4 figure and tax me |

QUOTE(rabbit.dynamite @ Jun 3 2014, 03:24 AM) Ciel should easily be over RM500 including shipping, therefore chances of it being taxed should be quite high. I remember maximum is 3 order per account, right?Since will kena tax regardless if it's individual or group order, wouldn't we save on shipping if we do group order? More ppl would mean more savings and it seems there's already quite a few people in this thread that's interested. Of course, the question is whether the savings are significant enough to justify the hassle of a group order. Additionally, if I'm not mistaken, GSC's online shop charges flat rate of ¥2000 for shipping to anywhere in the world regardless of how many items you order. But then, we'll need to factor in that the base price for the figure in GSC's shop will be higher than the other retailers. So need to play around a bit to see which retailer is cheaper (inclusive of shipping cost) when buying in bulk. Just my 2 cents. Feedback is welcomed. |

QUOTE(jason_tan1980 @ Jun 3 2014, 03:06 PM) The local store i have always keep eye on would be- figure hunter (nice seller, COD from seremban to connaught, save my shipping) - frontier station - hobby station - eien no kiseki - frozen figure store - AF hobby (i saw some member boycott this already) With dedicated website (google it) - the figure mall - shirotoy - hobby network ( most expensive) - toy panic I always compare their price and see if it is worth to pre order locally or via japan site. Btw, the figure mall are getting more expensive. This post has been edited by edwardccg: Jun 3 2014, 03:33 PM |

QUOTE(IMBeta305 @ Jun 4 2014, 12:37 AM) QUOTE(zito9 @ Jun 5 2014, 08:40 AM) The LED has very good quality, the strip is cover by transparent rubber cabling. So it is safe to bend. You can take a look on the picture in below linksThe length can only be selling in meter. No 3.5 meter, coz the led is 1 meter per strip. I afraid if i take the whole length route for my detolf would be too bright, so i only take to route diagonally and it seems not bad. Detolf is well design to easily route the led strip using cable tie The taobao item is this 爱德朗 led灯带 3528贴片灯条 高亮超亮 吊顶柜台七彩霓虹灯光带 http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r....&id=10867569337 透明-全网销量第一 〉白光 〉60 5 件(米) (3.1*5 = 15.5 RMB) led灯带5050/3528贴片光带灯条七彩霓虹防水高亮超亮客厅线灯插头 http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1...&id=15071614670 经典版灯带插头 x1 (9.9RMB) Noted that the price when i bought should be different, depend on the taobao seller having any promotion or not. While for taobao i am buying via my friend running electronic project business, he is selling taobao stuff for side business. Do contact him via email if you interested. Name: Louis Email: louislewyc@gmail.com His selling rate via sea shipping is ((total RMB include ship to 广东广州)*1.18)/1.8 I do not know how it will cost if by Air, since i always use sea shipping although it will take 3-5weeks to reach. You could mention my name "edwardccg" if you concern when contact him. Or perhaps you could just buy from other someone who run this smiliar business from taobao. Direct buying item from taobao and ship to malaysia also ok but i remember only EMS is available, not worth if only buy small stuff. This post has been edited by edwardccg: Jun 5 2014, 11:20 PM |

QUOTE(jayjay11 @ Jun 6 2014, 11:56 AM) normally if you yourself chances to get tax is lower. Via agent mostly they would say have to tax and still need pay agent commision somemore?Just act innocent and like this ![]() go via agent.. i am not sure never tried Which means most of the time have to go by yourself and that would have higher probability that they might not charge you. |

For ciel, local store tentatively price start from rm540.
Similiar to 13000 yen + 3000 yen + 10% tax Might get from local store for avoid hassle with custom. When they block and send letter, even though when you want declared for no tax you will still need to drive there and meet with officer, right? If only i stay near to KLIA. |
