Shinobu is sitting and she's easily SAL.
Nadeko has spare parts and she's SAL
All the rest are standing and/or have fuck huge bases. Kiss shot obviously doesn't have a huge base, it's flat. Also figures like Hanekawa, Hitagi and Tsukihi need additional protection due to their fragile and separate parts. Think about how much wasted space in boxes Nendoroids have. This Kissshot does not have that problem. It's all mostly 1 piece.

I think almost everyone else is surprised by the forced EMS.
Almost all the companies use standard rectangle sized boxes except for HS and NY so the width is probably the problem.

If GSC boxed it up with the base veritical maybe it would fight better.

Oh ok, I'm pretty sure it won't cost me that much then. I bought of shit ton of stuff for January though so I'll likely pay that if not more anyways.

>>136151058
This is just the front. If you ordered any of the later GSC monogatari figures you'd know what to expect, since this looks identical.

Tsukihi's box is probably the best figure box ever. Unsure how this one will turn out though, but I definitely wouldn't be making judgements like yours this early.

It's mostly that it's 1 or 2k more and the chance that she bargain bins like Tsukihi did. So possibly wasting 5k or more in total.

>$40 shipping for 1 figure

Fuck...

I bought it through Rakuten's Amiami shop. Do they allow me to add other in-stock figures if I ask? Just trying to see if I can make the shipping more worth it.

>>136151430
Most of you only paid 9K so there you have it's the same damn price why the fuck are you guys complaining.

Not him, but if you thought it might bin why would you even bother preordering and not waiting instead? Seems stupid. Just cancel your order if you're that upset about it.

And don't forget about customs, I thinking about cancelling her too, maybe if she were 1/7, heck even this costs 10K and it's SAL able, and the box and figure are huge.

>>136152032
Nah I don't like Pheonix. Which Snake figure is good? Might consider preordering the newest one.

>>136152107

I'm not a huge fan of her or Snake, but her fig is really pretty.

If you were going to get Snake, then definitely get the newest one.

>>136152214
Yeah, it looks nice but I can't really justify spending on characters I don't really like. I would get monkey but the only decent one is way too expensive, and haven't found a crab one that I like which is also the same for cat.

Newbie here, Kissshot would be the second figure I bought now.

Why the fuck is the amiami shipping so expensive? I paid 2600 yen on Mandarake for a 25cm figure but Amiami wants 3735 to ship her. Both are shipped in SAL.

Are AmiAmi just jews or is there a reason shipping her is so expensive?

>>136152848
Amiami has slightly more expensive shipping to compensate for their low prices of figures. That's so well-known fact.

>>136152831
Call Commissioner Gordon and tell him to turn on the MegaHouse symbol so they know Anon needs their help.

Email them, you dunce.

>>136152848
It's heavy as fuck too. Remember Kiss-shot is like 2m tall with a lot of hair so shes alot bigger then other 1/8s because most characters are short as fuck compared to her. Also just because she's kneeling doesn't make her any smaller mass wise. her base is also big too

Why is the weight important? I mean does it really matter whether the item is 1k heavier or not? Wouldn't the space of the package be the real problem when transporting stuff across the world?

I see 150 kilo fatasses get on plane to the other side of the globe no problem, but when a figure is 1k heavy it is a problem?

Both size and weight are taken in account. Weight is the issue before size generally, that's why the shipping price chart is listed by weight. shit like posters and daki pillows are going to go by size of course since they take up a lot more room for the weight.

When it comes to airline flights for people there are so many variables for prices I'm not getting into it, it can't be compared to shipping packages.

There's two types of SAL. SAL parcel which is SAL above 2kg and XX cm and it's expensive. And SAL small packet which is anything below 2kg and below XX cm. you're paying for SAL parcel. It's sometimes more expensive than EMS. SAL small packet is cheap but not available because Kiss shot exceeds XX cm.

1. How exactly do I contact the stores to tell them to undervalue my stuff? Do I write them an email? I was hoping for some sort of "comments" or "additional information" section on my payment but there is none.

2. What exactly do I write in the mail? "Please value my purchase number XXX as 2500 yen for customs, thank you." is that okay? Any information they require?

3. I am ordering from Nippon-yasan. What shipping method should I use for my order to avoid import tax? Is there any difference between using shipping by boat or by plane regarding import tax?

The /v/ is strong in this one. I bet you like erishit too, faggot.

I know you shouldn't be cancelling orders and that they explicitly say not to but is amiami more lenient with those that have been customers for a significant period of time? Cancelled an order recently because I ordered the wrong figure and they gave me the whole "don't do this again or we'll remove your account and orders" but I figure with a $300 order in April and a $400 one in March they probably wouldn't do it.

Moving to a wiki was discussed a while ago with the owner of the doc, the owner of buyfag.moe and owner of buyfags.moe.

The owner of the doc wanted a wiki because the doc itself CAN'T be updated by anyone but him and he does not update it. The shit contains links that go to dead sites and newer services has also came about. A wiki is better because we (buyfag) can update it ourselves and don't have to worry about another incident of some asshole reporting the doc.

Weirdness like this intrigues me. The whole, "is it really wrong if it's not real" argument of course comes into play. But then the, "if you like the fake representation then you're into the real thing, thus you're a pedo" argument comes up.

>>136159741
That wasn't him, look back into the thread.

The owner of buyfags.moe started talking about making a website since anons were saying "Why have a new google doc, when it could just be taken down again?" so he decided to start a wiki for it.

Then the owner of buyfag.moe came in and was wondering why a new link was made when he could just update the url to point to the new google doc.

buyfag.moe and buyfags.moe owners started arguing over which is better to use

Then finally the google doc owner came in and agreed with buyfags.moe because he wanted a wiki type of site and updated the guide to have a link there.

>>136159824
How is the wiki hopping around? Literally all the links to different articles is on the main page. It appears a lot cleaner to a person rather than scrolling down to find the right section, scrolling back up and whatnot

That never happened. There was zero argument and the buytard just said that they were glad that the guide was turning into an actual website rather than just a google document. Which is true, since a google document isn't the best of things to be reliant on after what happened last time.

But suddenly changing to a wiki style is sure to cause a lot of arguments since people are used to the format of the guide.

That's probably true for some, but I'm sure many won't really care so long as all the information is shown in an obvious way. I support the wiki more cause it has a lesser chance of being taken down and overall looks a lot more appealing to young buyfags and makes our hobby seem and feel more legit.

However on the site right now, it tells people not to use it until it finishes copying over the google docs so I guess we're both right?

Why not use both?

>>136160324
Well the UK guy was arrested before, they probably kept an eye out on him
As for the the burgerfag, someone probably tipped off the police or something. Maybe he yelled at some normie he knew, screaming 2D loli > his actual wife and that pissed him off. This makes you think about how worse off you would be if they saw your lewd collection of plastic lolis.

I think this is just going to be a subjective thing that people will argue about.

Personally my problems with the wiki format are that there's currently no anonymous editing, in fact a quick look at the history pages shows nobody has done any work on the wiki except the owner of it.

Also (and this is extremely petty), they have very awkward English. Just look at the first page which besides spelling manufacturers wrong, they also capitalise random words in the headings. The google doc is by no means perfect either, but at least it's a group effort which we can fix.

I think you're giving buyfag way too much credit. It might appear to be a lot of people editing the doc because its anonymous but chances are it was probably the same 3-7 people editing it.

One's a website, one's a google doc. The reason the doc went down was because people could edit at a whim, so obviously to avoid that on a website they would take precautions. The wiki takes the information the guide has and breaks it down better than having one gigantic page that would easily throw people off, this is obviously subjective but being too lazy to sign up after both of us exerted so much time in debating which is better is almost redundant

Anon falls in love with a figure

Unable to mate, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with his figure coming to life. Never minding the strange logistics of it, he immediately kisses her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a vagina as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's sexcapades, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some quick investigation, he finds a strange bulge growing inside her chest. In fact, she starts screaming in pain only for another copy of her to barge in and grab his hand. She is the figures alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

Tbh they should fill these seams.

Any owners of Koto Kurisu here? Are you guys bothered by her legs having different length? Her right leg is 1cm longer.

>>136164649
First they paint parts and only then gather them together. Eh.

I already own the other tank so I question the purpose of buying another.

>>136151346
If they would release Hinata to go with Aoi or Miku to go with Hibiki I would do the same.

I haven't even noticed this flaw, so no.

How many figures did you buy for your first buyfag purchase? I'm thinking of ordering three to four and it feels overwhelming.

1.

>>136165066
I made two orders at once of one figure each. I think I appreciate them more when I only receive one at a time

>>136164649
A bit too much work for a mass produced figure. To do it properly, they'd glue to parts together, sand the paint at the seam, putty and sand down, mask areas not to be repainted, then paint the now hidden seam, and seal.

>>136164788
>Her right leg is 1cm longer.
And now I'll never want to get this. Thanks, anon.

>>136165215
What about saving on shipping by grouping items together?

>>136165066
My first buyfag frenzy resulted in four (two each from two different stores). 3/4 have arrived, while the last is lost somewhere in Texas. I should probably call the Post Office and see what happened to it eventually, since it shipped on the 11th and was supposed to be delivered by the 13th.

>>136165241
That's dumb, all they have to do is make the hair one piece and slide the head in.

>>136165281
They were from different stores. I try to open one figure a day when I receive many.

>>136164355
I like both but still they're too overpriced, if I were you I would for the 1/4 ver.

>>136165380
Oh, I don't want either of them, I'm a Hanafag. I was just posting them to show the ridiculous markup.

>>136163380
that's why I hot glue all my preowned figs right as I get them so at least I know they are glued 100%

>>136165310
What's not how pvc curing/shrinkage works. All the parts with thin elements such as hair bangs are made small to throw away all deformed ones easily.

She's not for sale. It's a lottery.

I've only ever bought multiple doujin from Manda in the past, but last night I ordered one on its own, and they've omitted the handling fee even though it's just 800yen (it was 868yen on the listing, guessing they removed tax). Did they fuck up? Am I missing some clause on it's-fucking-nothing orders?

>>136165713
Isn't it similar to the Dollfie lotteries where you sign up, win, then pay?

>>136165713
How many people will apply to buy an extremely overpriced scale?

Anybody with a savings account who isn't a poorfag?

I could buy it, but I'd rather buy something that I like instead. I'm saving up to buy some land right now.

Welcome to hell.
Started my buyfag adventures with one figure (1/4 takao). Escalated quickly to 2-3 figs per month a few dakis and a bunch of onaholes. Im past the event horizon of no return.

The event horizon, is the point of no return. What you said was functionally redundant.

Shipping costs are fine and about what I expected.

>>136167117
I have. It's been pretty positive so far. Then again I do try to not buy from people who are underage or use way too much weebspeak or emojis.

It's a lot like eBay really. If it's too good to be true, be wary. Never pay by gift. Be wary of people selling highly sought after figures at low prices or have many copies. Not saying all people who do that are scammers, but I would question somebody selling 2-3 copies of say Bounty Hunter Yoko at $100. I'm also weary of people who have completely empty profiles. I'm not talking about the 'about me' section being blank but everything. No owned/ordered/wished.

The biggest issue I've had are buyers. Sometimes they're flakey, and tend to try and dance around saying they're not interested anymore.

>>136167117
Selling here is a bigger problem. Ask for LOTS of photos in hand with a time stamp, especially if opened.
