Haha still a long time to go, coz using SAL tongue.gif Hmm feel like buying more whistling.gif

It shouldn't take too long. Times are bad, and there's less stuff to ship around these days, I suppose =3=

I was pretty surprised when Mr. Postman delivered my Megahouse Menas 7 days after it's been sent from HLJ (was expecting it to take 2 weeks at least).

Also, enjoy rubbing away the printed image on the boobie mousepad, bro. They always go white after some usage ヽ(;´Д`)ノ

Fuuuuuuuuuck, I paid full price +1100yen for EMS for my wheelchair moe. It was my first online purchase (and the second ever fig I ever bought), too. It holds a special place in my heart ( *=‿=*)

They even have a countdown of the number of stocks left >.<
Btw, SAL for Alter Signum is under 1k yen?

Should be. It shouldn't be much larger than this package I'm expecting, right?

Placed order, i guess i'll buy the funds from infested_ysy once i get the payment mail. >_>

Err btw how much is additional charges for paypal transaction?
*
They don't charge extra (/◔ ◡ ◔)/

That's why I prefer to pay by paypal, since banks charge a ripoff exchange rate on my credit card.

Looks like many ppl like Signum here haha...

Hmm...still wonderin' y some of the nice item so cheap? Many xtra stock? Or got flaw? Or bisnes no good lately?

Signum is a fine piece...duno y HLJ throw price like tat...anyway, I heard tat Signum hair, I mean her ponytail is pretty fragile thou, handling no good wif broke off...few of my fren already kena, guess they're the unlucky one...

Surprise surprise: These items are actually quite cheap, distributor/vendor price-wise. It's not uncommon to see Japanese shops offering 20% discounts on all new items. Just look at amiami (http://www.amiami.com/), they even offer 10~20% discount for pre-orders.

Not to mention not many would be willing to throw $80 for a fig.

And as for  Guuto-kuro, they say its 21cm Tall....is this like a poseable PVC figure?  shocking.gif  I might consider it if got goood reviews for it.

Dohohohoh. I got 2 bags, bro. One from Haruhi, one from Makina.

Yes, it's roughly 1/8 scaled, though they don't really state it.

I choose SAL normally....but cuz they made a big box, they upgraded me to EMS automatically....since its faster and cheaper for big boxes to go EMS anyway.

More like, SAL Parcel, actually. It's like SAL, but it's tracked and requires signature upon receiving the goods (and around 1000yen more expensive, too)

You'll get bumped to SAL Parcel if your items are worth over $100 in one box, and there's a certain limit to the box size for SAL Small Pack (the cheaper, uninsured shipping), so you won't get SAL-SP if you have a bunch of stuff packed and ready to ship.

You can ask for some items to be canceled, to reduce the total charge, though there's a high chance they'll still use SAL Parcel for your package (even though the total is less than $100, like what happened to me in the above. I had another item in the order before this, which totals to $140 including shipping), but you can ask for them to make it SAL-SP.

Hope it helps (/◔ ◡ ◔)/

Nope, they bumped to EMS for me. Got EMS tracking number also. I did get a SAL parcel once and its more expensive than with EMS. Painful lesson for me, and also because of HLJ sales. Zzzz. I should know better than to suddenly buy stuff on impulse.\

=o

Now I must know what you ordered. I've never get bumped to EMS before.

Here. Only yukikaze was part of the sale...and that was the thing that blew up my order above RM500. doh.gif

That said, i'm not sure what to do when Saber Lily and Alter Yoko come out in the same month next month.

It's not even RM500 anymore, more like RM600-ish. The current rate is like 100yen = RM3.6

The model kit must've had a HUGE box, I suppose. And shipping's rather cheap for EMS.

I'd order it online as usual, but after hearing the horror story of that guy and his Chihinoue infinity, I'd rather not take the risk (and it's 1/6, too).

So yeah, I'd order one from you if you're taking it in.

Did you forget about GSC's plan to make animus and mangos out of the Franchise a long, long time ago? And their second waves of figs, with that HUGE HAT british-like loli and a miko loli?

Yeah, nobody remembers them anymore... ;_;

No official info. GSC kinda stopped mentioning anything about the line after that old news about a new second wave of figs for the line sometime last year.

Guys in 2chan think GSC gave up with the line :s

what happened to his chichinoue? got hold by custom or lost?

Yeah, got held up by custom.

Could've been the fact that it was exactly RM500 or slightly over it. I forgot if he used EMS or SAL.

Ah, maybe that's why :s

Guy went to the office and opens it up himself. He didn't mention about the details, though =p

I wonder if the box is a see-through type. Imagine the officers' looks when they see it :3
