Matt Random Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Anyone know how much is AmiAmi EMS shipping to CA was for past DXs? Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Secondary benefit of using Amazon: their servers don't even blink at what we did to NY/AmiAmi. Quote

No official polls or anything like that, but it seems that most of us who wanted one, did get at least one from somewhere. Quote

It's because us Aussies no longer have the option of buying from foreign Amazon any more. We are only allowed to purchase internationally via Amazon AU's global portal. International Amazon sites can't be forked dealing with getting and ABN and doing quarterly BAS etc. They just block all AU addresses. Thanks Australian government... Quote
Lolicon Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 (edited) Last time I tried to order at Amazon Japan, they would not ship to a US address. That was years ago. I tried just now and they allowed it. 18000 + 1200 for shipping. HS with shipping will almost certainly cost more so I will cancel it. Edited July 27, 2018 by Lolicon Quote

Just be careful with the cancellations.... cos accounts can and have been suspended for this.... after all that's why CDJapan takes in full payment now Quote

erizai Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Yesterday I almost wanted to drop the idea of ordering... but Bandai really priced it right.. Bravo for such a good work and yet affordable, although still early to say about the quality. Quote

We can blame the liberals and Gerry Harvey for that, is isn't making enough fleecing people know that he has a lot of competition. Quote
Valkyrie23 Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 I knew Amazon JP allowed buying video games in recent years but did not know they now allowed toys. A whole new world of hurt for the wallet. I did just receive my NeoGeo mini from Amazon JP though. Quote

Even a small retailer like Ami is collecting tax for Australian purchases. All my orders now have 10% added tax including shipping! The main purpose is to reduce importing purchasing that is hurting our local retail as our pricing is much more expensive than overseas. It will also be a big chunk of money in the government's pocket now too. Quote
