Hello guys,

Anyone here try purchase goods or figure from Amiami?
I planning to buy some stuff and figure from Amiami for 1st time. What kind of shipping courier you guys prefer to use.
Thanks for the tips.
*
EMS = If you don't mind paying more for shipping and want the figure to reach you asap.
RSAL = If you can wait for it to arrive (usually 9-14 days) but at the same time want to track your shipment status.
SAL = If you are confident you will get your parcel. Shipping duration same with RSAL.

I have used every one of it.

Just returned from Kastam. And the result is...

Will still be confiscated  cry.gif  cry.gif  Tried to explain about the clothes usually purchase separately (I even brought seamless doll as sample), but they say they will assess only on what's inside the parcel (which is just the figure in naked apron). Not helping when 5 of 6 officers who present in the room for the rayuan are Muslim women (one of them even said "sebagai Muslim macam ni tak boleh"  vmad.gif ), and the Kastam director just agree to the verdict of the majority of the officers (those 6). The director did commented on there is no definite guideline about my case; what considered lucah for some might not be the same for others. But since all 6 officers agreed the figure is lucah, he have to agree as well. He did said I can appeal again another time (most probably hinting it could be passed depending on officers in-charge).

In summary, the figurine (Freeing 1/4 Kuroki Mikage) considered as lucah because:
- skimpy clothes
- sexy pose
- not articulated enough to be considered as a doll

Not sure whether I want to appeal again (maybe this time bringing other static 1/4 figurines with decent clothes on), but for now I can just deemed the RM 840 for the figure burned  cry.gif

ouch... RM840 gone like that sad.gif

Hello, may I ask is Big in Japan good? Anyone used them before? Thanks in advance.  smile.gif

Bought a few items from them before. They are not too bad except their customer service responds can be slow sometimes. Pricing wise, some of their items can be slightly cheaper than amiami. On the plus side, they always under declare figure value when shipping. Even my RM80 prize figure was under declared sweat.gif . So if you are planning to buy something which cost more than RM500, BiJ is a good option.

The calculation is very helpful... cause AmiAmi doesnt give u an estimated shipping immediately.. so its hard to figure out whether I should combine shipment or not to get near the RM500 mark... cause if the tax is 16%, sometimes it might be cheaper to pay tax and combine shipment rather then pay shipping twice seperately?

Any idea whats the average shipping cost from AMIAMI for a 1/8? Combine shipping nets a big discount?
*
Depending on the type of shipping.

Around RM30-RM60

Ooo.... to my untrained eyes... the figures looks quite close to the original...

Infact some of them look very nice indeed... the most attractive part is the price.. wow.... easily 50% cheaper.

This company E2046.... reputable? Its form HK... shipping fees also much cheaper.

Most of them are uncoloured. You have to colour them yourself.

Because it's a preowned entry - once the figure is sold the link is no longer available.

It's Orchid Seed's Satan, http://myfigurecollection.net/item/97003

I know, that is why I was asking what figure is it.

From time to time they will have it. Usually will notify their customers via email, or can check their FB page

I never get notified through email before (bought items there before). Usually see their post in fb.

Also, for currency, choose JPY (Japan Yen)

Last year's one went into the bargain bin. Hope this doesn't suffer the same fate. Else I will regret paying high price for it.

Probably why she's still available after 6 hours...Not much different than Amiami's current price...Seeing as how even this one is still available, I'm guessing she'll bin even harder...

Amiami new is 9k+, the 8.8k is new with damage box.

I wonder why such a sought after figure can end up with extra stocks for a bargain after a re-release. Produce too many?
