Oh wow that seals the deal. Gimme, now.

I hope that magazine is still in stock where I order.

Edit: btw, Amiami is currently having a half-off shipping sale until the end of this month.

I need not say what a good deal that is. The cheapest site with the cheapest shipping, and you're bound...No, definitely going to save money in the double digits. I just bought figma Fate. Cost me 29$ and that was with the shipping (EMS) already factored in.

Bought it out of curiosity, never seen one before. I just wish I could read the damn thing, lots of cool looking stuff inside.
that's exactly what i was talking about. that pretty much "seals" the deal (crappy pun intended) if i want it or not. now the problem is trying to find a place to buy it from.....

HobbySearch got back to me. They're mailing the illustration book to me through ems at no extra charge. They just got major bonus points in my opinion.

either we've got the same taste, or your situation ended up the same as mine when it came to the Nanoha accessory. i originally wanted the Fate one, but i got screwed and swiped the Nanoha one before it disappeared for good. the only difference between your PSP and mine is the strap which i'm 100% sure it's not the same. did i mention you have good taste?

Glow in the dark steam? To help illuminate what we can't see? That's awesome.

So these guys are out for pre-order now. Go go~

Nyantype vol.05
- Amazon
- HMV - if you just want the magazine, HMV has nice, cheap EMS.
Don't know much about other stores. orz

All three stickers come with it. You also get a Hideyoshi poster, ahahaha~

Didn't notice My bad.

While I'm here, just put in an order for figma school girl fate. Wasn't going to get her at first, but since I kinda went on a spending spree this week anyway(5 figures and 1 plush = $300+) I figured I'd pick her up at amiami while the sale's going.

Depends on if you want just the magazine.

Amazon is weird. I forget the initial price, but it costs around 300 yen for every item you add on. I think books cost a little more. A friend bought 3 magazines for about 3.1k yen and the shipping ended up being 3.6k yen or something.
- So if you buy a lot, like 8~9+ items, Amazon isn't really that bad. It's actually pretty nice if you're buying heavy items, like photobooks and DVD/BD sets of anime.

I don't know any other site that does nice, cheap shipping like HMV does. They give you a rough guide for shipping. The neat thing is that when you order, you can have the option to delay the order to check if the final shipping price is acceptable for you - you can compare with Amazon and see which is cheaper for you. They're very nice about orders being cancelled.
- If you're getting a few things, HMV is generally better depending on if you're not getting heavy items. Prices are roughly the same as Amazon when it comes to magazines, books, singles and albums. It's DVD/BDs you have to look at, but sometimes they're slightly cheaper than Amazon when you multi-buy. Photobooks are heavy, olol.

I don't have experience with any other store. ^^;

And who was the Canadian here? 00-Raiser? I got my Amazon package the other day! It was about 600$, right - 5 BDs, 2 DVDs, 1 magazine, 1 album w/DVD, 1 single w/DVD. Because it's directly from Japan, customs charged me 125$. I think 8$ was the standard fee and then the rest were taxes.

Yeahhhh, this kind of bites. It's still cheaper than some place like YesAsia, who I'm told works out custom fees, even when you factor in customs and the fact that YesAsia will do free international shipping on orders over 40$ or something.

I'd imagine that's because you bought so much. Generally when I order DVDs from Right Stuf, any order under $50 won't get me charged at the door. The most expensive thing that's come from Japan was the actsta Subaru at around $100 and we didn't get charged anything at the door.

I got charged 15$ [6$ being the standard fee and the rest taxes I think] for the Nanoha OST. Just the Nanoha OST. And that's what, 30$? Pinning the blame on Amazon.

It's only so expensive because of the BDs, lol. First package when I didn't know about customs had 2 BDs and 2 singles and it was about 40~45$. Another one with just 4 DVDs was about 45$ customs though. I forget how much I was charged for my package with 2 photobooks, 1 mag and 5 singles. I guess it wasn't too much or I just didn't bother to look at the sheet.

Haven't received a figyuu from Japan yet. Should be getting Fate nendo in a month, so I'll see if it's just customs that hates me.
