Grey728 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 For those still looking for the strike packs Amazon Japan will ship to your door for $146.40 shipped and it will arrive in 3-5 days despite the pandemic.

It was all they had left or I would've posted here. But if you have orders elsewhere and just waiting, I would recommend being vigilant on AJ and looking for the right price. Food for thought.

I'm totally aware of the suspension of SAL and EMS to the States (your last comment on the thread you're referencing @RedComet was directly after mine,) but not sure what company and which toy he's referencing. It just seemed like a random comment?

Well they won't LET you ship anything by Japan post or EMS but when things stuck in postal purgatory arrives also seems totally random. For example one EMS package that was shipped on April 9th showed up yesterday, while another of mine, shipped from the same location on the 4th has yet to make ANY updates in its progress. It almost seems as if they literally stacked up a mountain of boxes, then have had to work on slowly whipping things from the TOP of the pile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I already got TWO DX VF-1Js and a 1S + missiles + Strike pack to replace all the stuck stuff haha. I thought I got a good price on two VF-1 missile sets for 7000 in there, but they will re-release them in July and if my package never arrives, or even arrives early June they may only be worth $50 at least the prices on everything else have appreciated a bit...

oshanmacross Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Has anyone received shipping notice from MyKombini for their super parts? Sent email Friday asking for status but no reply yet. Earlier in the week they asked for another 350 yen stating the shipping was more than they expected ~_~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
