1. Most shop sell bootleg except some famous good one like the one in Berjaya Square which focus on Japan anime product/figure (forget the name)
Time Machine? (donno still open or not), XL-Shop? Any way to get non-bootleg anime/manga stuff?

QUOTE(dis0rd3h @ Dec 11 2014, 08:32 AM) 1. You buy something deemed indecent from online stores. It could be H-tankoubons, doujinshis, whatever. Then you pay extra to have the seller make the parcel/packaging as "innocent" as possible. 1. They ship in brown box with very simple description on delivery docket. I don't know how much more innocent you want. 2. You went to Comiket, and bought one (or dozens) too many doujinshis and merch. You're most likely way over your weight limit, and you can't fit all of them into your luggage. You pack them up real nicely and securely (though considering the sheer quantity, you can't cover them up 100%), and have a Japanese courier send it back to your home. 2. Should be alright as long as the size and value doesn't arouse suspicion. |

QUOTE(StrikonX @ Dec 11 2014, 12:16 PM) They would take notice if it's something banned from the country, I guess? Pornography, and child pornography are huge no-nos, that much is for certain. I was wondering if H-materials are considered as.There's so many Hollywood movies I want that are banned. But for these movies, at least you can find a ban list online. This is not the case with anime/manga. I cannot find a ban list of anime online, which means I am stuck with being lucky or not if the anime I bought will either arrive to me or... I don't know. The only thing I know that are probably banned here are hentai related stuff, not sure about ecchi ones. Well technically, they *are*, but still. Just for reference, I purchased Steins;Gate (the officially translated physical copy) from J-list , Fate/Zero Blu-Ray box collection from Rightstuf, and a shirt from a certain website which name begins with the letter F. I had no problems with those, but of course none of these are of offensive nature. I however, did brought back a luggage stuffed with doujinshi during one of my trips to Tokyo, both perfectly SFW and NSFW ones. Went scarily swimmingly. QUOTE(Quazacolt @ Dec 11 2014, 12:32 PM) Guess I was pretty lucky with my luggage as written above. If they do discover my stuff, do I lose any hope of getting them all back?QUOTE(goldfries @ Dec 11 2014, 01:02 PM) 1. They ship in brown box with very simple description on delivery docket. I don't know how much more innocent you want. 1. I was thinking more along the lines of actually switching the jacket of the book with something safer. The jackets are unfortunate casualties, as long as I get the actual stuff safely.2. Should be alright as long as the size and value doesn't arouse suspicion. 2. Hm. Would a box stuffed to the brims with thin A4 books (like 10-20 pages thick) be suspicious? As for value, you mean the price of each individual book? They cost around 800-1000 yen each. It's been a while, but I remember plonking down several 10000 yen notes in one transaction. This post has been edited by dis0rd3h: Dec 11 2014, 02:02 PM |

QUOTE(dis0rd3h @ Dec 11 2014, 08:32 AM) Interesting. I don't think custom will be so childish, either songlap or confiscation or fineConsider these two situations: 1. You buy something deemed indecent from online stores. It could be H-tankoubons, doujinshis, whatever. Then you pay extra to have the seller make the parcel/packaging as "innocent" as possible. 2. You went to Comiket, and bought one (or dozens) too many doujinshis and merch. You're most likely way over your weight limit, and you can't fit all of them into your luggage. You pack them up real nicely and securely (though considering the sheer quantity, you can't cover them up 100%), and have a Japanese courier send it back to your home. What are the odds of customs discovering your treasure? If they do, would they run around telling on everyone, like a kid telling on you "Ha! You like these things!"? So far i have online purchase sex toy like tenga etc, the heaviest toy is a 2kg Silicon Oppai, no problem also maybe i'm lucky I also bring the sex doll myself in my check in luggage when my trip to akihabara, also no problem To mod: delete this reply if you think haram to talk about, thanks no ban |
