my zoro & kizaru POPs shipped today from HLJ via SAL. 16,100Y and it was about $216. uuughhhh. HLJ informed me that when you make an order via SAL, unless the merchandise total is over 15,000Y or it can't possibly fit into SAL, only then will it be shipped EMS. So they automatically split Kizaru and Zoro into 2 SAL packages. Certainly saved me some money.

Wow. It took a while but the chess set is sold out XD. I hope those who ordered the set won't be disappointed when they are released. I wish you all the best luck it is somewhere near prototype and not a letdown like MegaHouse's LogBox releases.
-
POP Nami and Luffy for ¥9000 respectively were sold out in minutes. Intriguing.

Its still available at other sites like otacute & hlj
Amiami is not the best site anymore. Lots of figures not being able to ship via SAL, expensive EMS shipping. etc etcI prefer if we can actually play with the chess set.

Yes, that's true. But especially for me I have to rely on them a lot because of one thing. They don't put the shipping cost (ship via SAL) on their invoice. That saves me a lot of money (customs) ^^. And they usually give better discounts + new point system. :)

Was able to grab some cute choco chopper valentine 2012 figures for a cheap $20, give me a pm or check my sales page if u need 1, thx!
-
no talk about the FiguArts preorder? No one interested in them anymore? XD
-
Meh. I don't care about any of the releases. I ordered Smoker cus he looks kinda nice. Kuma is too expensive and Tashigi just isn't interesting enough design wise and char wise to bother with
-
I want Kuma, though he's too expensive for me. I'd get Smoker, but he's cheaper on AmiAmi, and there he's either done or I just don't know how to preorder from there.
-
Ami is the first site to sold out any FiguArts, then HS.
I preordered them from HLJ but will cancel all of them. I need money for all the upcoming WCFs and POPs and GLx… T___T -
yeah I'd rather pay more with HLJ and have the benefit of being able to cancel easily. Dunno if I'll keep Smoker in the end.
-
U can cancel easy with hlj?
What if u have to 2 figures ordered with them and u don't want the other figure anymore? Still able to cancel and keep the other one to send to u? -
HLJ needs to ship out my SA Zoro POP by tomorrow or i will murder something
-
@1Up:

What if u have to 2 figures ordered with them and u don't want the other figure anymore? Still able to cancel and keep the other one to send to u?2 copies of the same figure or 2 different figures ordered together?
In the first case you go in your account, watch you open orders, you click to modify them and reduce from 2 to 1 the figures.
In the second case simply you go in your account, in your open orders, you modify and cancel what you don't want anymore. Hlj groups all your items together. -
Ok thank you that info, it's about 2 different figures ordered.
What if they ask your for payment request now? Still able to do like that? Or need to e-mail them and ask them to do it for u? -

btw. Please send me an update on the total cost with the new cup. Thanks!! :)
-
Ok thx, guess I just keep em both then :-o

2800 EMS is pretty damn cheap for shipping.
-
Wow. I didn't know it would be that expensive elsewhere! But it's not really in my nature to spend so much on shipping. I guess that's why I almost jumped at the quoted shipping price despite it being "pretty damn cheap"
-
So from all the big shops, who got the cheapest shipping and who is the most expensive one?
For that kizaru and Zoro set?! -
I would say HL is cheapest with EMS because of the 20% discount. The others are pretty much the same with SAL IF you get SAL unreg. Some only do SAL reg. and others don't even have enough different boxes to ship what could be shipped via SAL. (AmiAmi for example)
-
Try shipping to the UK!! ¥6,400 for EMS from HS!!
But the single shipment of costs 3320 yen for uk Kizaru
Why to you to Kizaru zoro and the expeditions for both 2800 and only -

The 2800 one was mine. I live in Singapore, not the UK.

I paid 3760 EMS for mine at HLJ. Also a note, the estimate can be more cheap, or even more expensive, than the actual cost.

Just reply to the invoice they sent you. I had to do that for figuarts Chopper when they HLJ'd me on figuarts Robin. Because it would end up being cheaper buying them together in the US than one in Japan and the other in the US.
-
I got my zoro only shipped for 2600 to France
if i may say HS is pretty expensive SAL or EMS, HLJ have discounted but it depend on where you are i guess :/ -
It doesnt matter what the costs of shipping are.. its woth it.. for me atleast.
-
I'm about the cheapest person ever, I never EMS anything unless I really have to because it drives me nuts to pay almost as much as the figure to ship it
-

me too i don't use ems much, usually registered,sal or air mail, but recently been using EMS a lot, because of mandarake or i am impatient to get some stuff like zoro for example ;)

The faster shipping is admittedly nice. The few times I've been forced to EMS, it was cool to recieve it so fast. Though sometimes even SAL comes really fast to here (usually 2 weeks but sometimes 1!)

yeah when you get a package in 5 days to a week is so cool!
It depend for me sal takes 2 week up to 3 weeks, few times got a month, it depends on the situation too!
i noticed packages are slow on vacation and can be stucked in custom too :/btw i wondered for the order of shirahoshi and jeff beckman, on otacute which day and hour they start the preorder because i always miss the orders out there :/
usually they put on their website a day after the others but the hours is always unknown :/
i'm From France dunno which hours :( -

I really doubt it but i'd laugh so hard if suddenly 4 SA Zoros show up at my door XD i would be at a loss.
-
In the end i paid for Zoro and Kizaru 15835 yen in SAL Parcel, that in Italy isn't so slower than EMS (the fact is that in Italy the EMS is very slow, about that there are advices on japanese post site). Seeing other prices i consider myself lucky and i apologize amiami for my complaints.
