Don't know PA will bring in anymore Revoltech
since they never bring in any Revoltech beside the saber

They do sell other revoltechs if you search properly..just taht they dont put 'revoltech' in the title..

Definitely free shipping
No other stores is doing it >_<

I guess because since PA is located in Kong Kong..its nearer than other shops biggrin.gif

For me..I always inform them to wrap my items properly for every order..and since your box is dented..you can make a complaint to them and they might offer you a USD5 coupon.

And next time they will try to be more careful with your items ^^

And try using other shipping methods..they are worthy. If you use their coupon..its like you're just paying about USD10 for shipping..which is less than RM40 and you get your items faster..no customs..not so much damage (there will be a little but not as teruk as yours ><)

I'm from Penang and since the customs for couriers are located at Penang Airport, I usually get my items the NEXT DAY around 1 - 2pm icon_rolleyes.gif

hmm they do that when we complain, that's good, coz i was quite sad that my Alter Fate box got dented. and they nvr seem to wrap the item, they just put it in the shipping box with polystrene. the next time i order from them i'll be sure to remember to ask them to wrap it properly smile.gif

anyone know what is the retail price in japan for Revoltech EVA clear?

The price is okay to me..means its around RM90 per figure.
If you wanna get it..get it fast..now they only have 6 stocks.

They might bring in more though

LOL I was very disapointed with the size. No more revo for me. smile.gif

Btw deejay220989 customs takes 15% of total (product + SAL cost)

NO tax for EMS (up to RM500) because EMS delivery company takes  estimated tax for the specific country into their calculation when they charge you.  So EMS pays the tax on your behalf to customs.  Most of the time customs doesn't bother to check EMS package and it gets sent to your home.

I know about that EMS thingy..thats why I wanna ask first coz I might wanna order something worth more than RM500..only one figure ><..need to prepare lor..

Nice pics e-jump, you're building quite a collection there =) Glad to see valho's Mirei finally arrived, better late than never ^^;; My Asaba from Hobby Search arrived yesterday, shipping was pretty steep at 2100 yen but it's the exact cost so no complaints, poor bf holding it for me as I'm in Penang atm ^^;;

Nendoroid Light and Ryuk on sale at P-A but tahaning and not buying it until I get paid in August ... but it'll probably sell out in 1-2 days so looks like I'll have to order from HLJ again x_x

Light still have 3 more stocks and Ryuk have 18 more at PA..better hurry up! smile.gif

How do you know the exact no. of stock in PA  blink.gif

QUOTE(valho @ Aug 1 2007, 09:16 AM)
i wonder about that too, not the first time he mention the exact stock at PA hmmm huh.gif

Easy..just add the item into your cart, then key in 11111111111111111 or any number maximum number you like in the Qty. box

Then update shopping cart and the Qty will change to 8388607 (which is normal..I dunno why this number) and then Checkout..

The number will be reduced to the number of stocks they have..

It works for most items..not for all items..

That's a weird figure to get taxed for, she doesn't even look revealing (not like they know she can cast off). Must have been one of those random checks, hopefully your future shipments don't kena. I had 3 packages from PA arrive in one shot recently, was worried would kena cos of Raya coming but luckily no probs  sweat.gif
*
Lolz..obscene figures doesn't mean sure kena tax..how do they know the content of the box before opening it? They give the reason 'obscene' after opening the box..

I've ordered 3 packages at once from PA before..small ones and all pass through safely but I receive one first and the other 2 few days later..

Well..Raya is the time you need to becareful..those ppl there want money..buy clothes for wife and kids..buy this and that..well..in short try not to get anything near festive seasons ^^

tr|al[],Oct 13 2007, 03:27 AM]For Play-Asia, its Rm185+ if you take free shipping(what you see is probably what you pay). I don't know if credit card need to pay any additional charges.
For Hobby-Stock theres an English site. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/.
Regarding Nenodroid L, you can try pm LilKeV84 or be@rbrick or Dreamer's
*
Additional charges?? I guess its 3%..maybe they pay on our behalf..

Everyone will charge you 3% if you use credit card..even if you go to our local hypermarket..but you won't notice the diff because its either because 3% is too low or they've paid for you (which means they did not charge you the 3%)

But for PA..I do not think they charge extra 3% to your CC

still can get at Hobby Search, seems they haven't got their stock yet
eh RM260 shouldn't get taxed unless you were using SAL shipping

I think she's using SAL..
If she used EMS..her Alicia would have arrived earlier..

But if you use SAL..your total cost will be less RM220..
Weird -.-

If you just ordered one and kena tax..I ordered 2 lagi teruk -.-
But its less than RM500 ma
