Anyone else wait for a amiami payment request to cancel an order months later? I ordered 3 daki covers for march and now I dont want one. I feel it's safe cause I just made my January payment.
>>136323689
Must have missed that.
Still even 7.5k is a bit much for a figure from Pulchra.
I like Silica but not enough that I must have a scale of her, I'm not even a big fan of SAO so I don't own any merch from it.
I do like how Pulchra's Silica looks enough that I'd buy it at a good price though.
I'll just continue to wait and hope she bins harder.
Akashi is up for pre order. Get her and Ooyodo for sweet NPC justice.
She comes with alot of junk.
>>136324108

>>136324108

I'll buy your Wo-class for msrp.
>>136324264
Do you have Re and Hoppou? I dont want her to be lonely anon
Is there any way to get a package sent to the post office if it's international (e.g. EMS, SAL) since I live in an awful neighborhood and have had packages taken off my doorstep before.
I don't think I could take losing a figure, and the cops are never any help.
>>136324326
You mean a P.O. Box?
>>136324291
I don't have Re or Hoppou. I just want Wo for my Wo shelf.
>>136324212
>that Akane
MOOOOEEEEEEEEE
>>136324185
>the tank is exclusive
I love giving myself excuses to order things I don't have any need for.
>>136323898
>>136324340
I don't have one, but USPS can intercept a domestic package on request, and hold it.
>>136324349
Is the one on the left a bootleg? It looks nice.
>>136324406
That is the FuRyu prize figure. I don't have any other prize figures to compare it to. But it is better than what I was expecting for the price.
Are there any nendos with elf ears?
>>136324774
Yes.
Is this real? Litchi fags are coming
>>136324774
No.
>>136324774
Monster hunter guild master has pointy ears. There is also alleyne from queen's blade.

Does anyone have her? How is she?
>>136325190
Shit.
>>136325057
Watch me.
Does amiami can you if you cancel a item like once every three months?
I've spent about $100 a month on them and give them cancellation notices at least a month before the product is set to come out.
>>136325640
We don't work for amiami
>>136325640
>Does amiami can you if you cancel a item like once every three months?
What the fuck am I reading?Yes, just ignore payment
>>136325640
Baka gaijin, you give me money now!
>>136325728
>some people do this.
>>136325640
I have ignored payment, I have requested several items to be cancelled from larger orders and no negative consequence has ever happened.
I have spent several thousand dollars with them though.
>>136325784
I just stopped paying amiami as soon as I started using HLJ because of their warehouse thing. It took around 6 months of orders before they closed my account
>>136324834
Trash.
>>136325918
People decide they don't want things for reasons aside from financial.
I'll let Saori explain.
I-Is´s not like I wanted to pay anyways, b-baka.
WTF is with this error? I obviously have money in my paypal balance and my debit card. Fuck paypal and Manda
>>136327009

Amiami can me what?
>amiami
>okay there is a delay with one of your chinese toys so we've decided to split your order AND change your payment method to paypal so you have to change it back to credit card and waste your time waiting for another invoice.
>>136327514
Mason Jars are cheap and versatile, I use them more for storage but I have a few spares that I use for water glasses from time to time.
>>136325057
Her head looks awkward.
>>136327655
If you insist...
Aquamarine continues to do good stuff.
>>136327836
Her ass is kind of flat.
>>136327836
The prototype looks great but I will wait for release before spending the money.
I hope she turns out well as I do want her.
Is it that time already?
>>136327847
Why are you looking at her ass, poop comes from there, you know?
>>136327878
My penis goes in there.
>>136327857
Sensible. But Chris, Sinon, and Akatsuki all turned out well enough that I'm comfortable pre-ordering.
>>136327878
That's kinda hot
>>136327847
I like her short skirt and big coat. And I know it's not everyone's taste but I'm okay with some girls not being big booty bitches.
>>136327861

I was excited when I saw the announcement since her design is appealing but then I watched the show. I was expecting something as enjoyable as Umaru but it is boring. Are the threads any good?

>>136328156
That would be nice too.
>>136328171
>>136327857
Same here. It is a bit pricey and I kinda wish she had a better base than just a standard base.
>>136328171
I want a Nekone and Kuon RAH or Fumo. I think actual fabric would suit their clothing nicely.
>>136328273
How come we never saw her panties but saw Megumi's in a matter of days?
>>136328104
Really if they do them, Kuon, or Oshutoru/Ukon, I'd buy it.
Fujos like Oshutoru enough to make one.
>>136328330

if you're in the US, I wonder if USPS is being kind of weird lately. I just had a thing shipped to me from Torino, and it spent less time getting farted on by Poste Italiane than it's spent in the States, which is really really fucking weird.

I want to cancel about 4 preorders on Amiami to make room for new ones, and I've been a consistent customer for years. Do you think they'll ban me for canceling this many?
>>136329039
It's not impossible. this is why multiple accounts are a good idea with amiami.They allow you to change profile data anytime.
>>136328798
It's been in the US since last month.
>>136329084
yep, 4 accounts or at least three are the sweet spot.
>>136327878
Guilty fucking Gear
>>136329084
How about splitting combined orders? Do they do that?
>>136329158
Not if they are in the same month and you've already hit the (combine order) button.
>>136327908
Just pre-ordered mine.
Hey kiwis,
Where do you get your figures? I always have bad experiences buying online.
Related
I ordered 3 figures off eBay early December and still have not received. All 3 sellers are now gone from eBay as well. Have I been had by 3 people at the same time?
>>136329459
>eBay
>>136329459
your problem is buying from ebay, dude. Pick a legit vendor with Registered and insured shipping.
>>136329459
fuck off
>>136329158
>>136329221
They've split an order for me before, I just had to email and ask them.
>>136329475
Lesson learned.
Follow up question. Is there anywhere in NZ besides hobbyzone that has a physical presence?
>>136329555
In that case, great. Just let them know before the "prepared to ship" notification.
>>136329459
Because ebay charges sellers on their shipping you get the cheapest shipping available most of the time. Also you probably ordered from outside the country.
>>136329459
>eBay
Well there's your problem dumbass. Either buy from local collectors or directly from Japanese sites.
>>136329581
There's a couple of stores that sell a limited stock of figures, but if you buy from them you're gonna get jewed 99% of the time.
>>136329757
>local collectors
if only this were more common, God I'd kill for a decent shop in my city.
>>136329821
Almost every big city, let alone country, has some sort of facebook page for selling figures and other merch. It's not that hard to find people selling stuff, but it is hard to find the good stuff among all the shit.
>>136329459
if you are gonna buy from eBay always look at reviews also amiami has a ebay page that i use sometimes its free shipping.
>>136329821
There are at least two in my city.
They mix bootlegs with legit figures, are jewish as fuck and have them displayed in full sun.
It's better to import on your own.
>>136329938
That's a great idea, but yeah it's usually crap and bootlegs. However I'll look into it, thanks anon.
Never know if I'll find a decent steal.
>>136329967
>It's better to import on your own.
100% agreed
can a slightly poorfag get into figure collecting?
What's the best place to go to get figs for a reasonable price?
I have a few bootlegs but they don't cut it anymore
>>136330039
No fug off
>>136330039

Cheap figures of decent quality. Also I'd start with just one or two ~$50 figs from amazon or something/ imports are very pricey so I'd buy within the contiguous 50 (assuming you're an American)
>>136330039
check the guide dude, it's there for many reasons.
>>136330039
Read the guide. Poorfags will have to either occasionally get figmas, nendoroids/cupoche, and trading/prize figs, or very rarely get scales.
>>136330099
>very rarely get scales.
this doesnt surprise me.
>>136330086
>>136330077
>>136330099
sorry, I just like talking to you guys ;~;
>>136330039
there are many good high quality figures you might like for as low as 5K-6K, you don't have to spend a hundred for each one like many here do, and stay away from prize figs unless you can get them very cheap.
>>136330236
>and stay away from prize figs unless you can get them very cheap.
what's wrong with them?
I've always assumed they were under 15 bucks
>>136330236
Got an Asuka for $16 and it's suprisingly good. There are little deals you can get out there for a good price. Especially considering a majority of EVA figs suck ass.
>>136330039
>>136330236
Why stay away from prize figures? If I wanted to collect as a poorfag I'd probably collect prize figures, they're really low cost and aren't that bad quality wise. Even though I almost exclusively collect scales I still get the odd prize figure.
My neighbor got robbed. Im so scared they will steal my figurines
>>136330325
if I had the balls to break into someone's house I'd definitely steal all your shit and leave the shittiest one covered in hot glue
welp
>>136330375
Considering this. Two lances are pretty rad.
>>136330291
>>136330273
>>136330260
There are some exceptions but in general they're not that good and many people end up getting rid of them once they start to collect scales, as I said there are pretty good deals for little money, this fate for example is 3,5K sealed and it's height is 26cm
>>136330375
>>136330449
Too bad the box is going to be xbox huge.
>>136330375
I shouldn't get her, I already bought too many figs. But... In another hand, my Olivia probably feels alone...
>>136330506
what he said. holy shit the shipping fees
FUCKING WHEN????
anyone know of any good full metal panic figs? I love that series but fuck is the manga incredibly long
>>136330646
>>136330654
too old for good figs
>>136330654
A couple of tessa.
>>136330325
If I robbed your house the only figure I would steal is your Asuka for doubles and using both poses. You have good taste. We have 14 figures in common.
>buying Bahamut figures.
Haven't you all moved on to superior games like hearthstone or gbf? there's already a ton of gbf figures in the works.
>>136330796
I buy F/GO figs now
>>136330720
thats what I figured. sad to see it that way.
Literally a boy's ass.
>>136330884
>can't appreciate a boy's ass on a fine young woman.
>>136330770
Thanks anon. I got a few more not displayed but I like my collection. Theres a few I regret buying though but my neighbor neing robbed is putting me on edge
Why no one likes this scale?
>>136331024
Cause, not oni-chan.
>>136330884
Non-Nero Sabers aren't particularly curvy
>>136331024

Flat is better and if you disagree you're probably from a 3rd world country.

You could buy an alarm system. Not one of those scam alert systems, but one that just cranks out the air horns when someone breaks in and sends you a text or call. Pretty useful if you're away from home and its one of the cheapest solutions. Cameras and "we'll call the police for you" systems don't do shit.
So, I am currently looking for Keroro Gunso statuettes/figurines.
Are there ANY, that are readily available, that aren't just Natsumi/Aki in bikini's? Only one I can find is this one, but i've already got it.
Am I the only person on the internet that just wants their statuettes to look either benign or badass?
>>136329459
For non pre order stuff I get from Solaris Japan. $20 ish shipping, I buy a couple of figs at the same time since the shipping stays the same. If you order on monday, it seems to arrive around saturday.
no figma of tenryuu and tatsuta, guess I'll just have to get every other one til they make it
>>136330375
This triggers my chuunibyou.I'm not ashamed of my being far past that age.Instant preorder
what do you guys think of this scale?
>>136330375
Shit, she looks so good. Not as expensive as it could have been either. Hopefully her hair turns out better than Olivia's.
>>136329581
There's Pulsar Max in Wellington. It's maximum jew though. They sell nendos for like $120 and never put stock on clearance. There are figures there that have been sitting around since at least 2006.
Just buy from Japanese stores. NZ is a pretty good place to buyfag from, other than our shitty currency. Fast shipping from Japan, no GST or customs fees under $400 (for now), and we have a decent postal service.
Once you know what you doing, you can get some sweet deals from trademe as well. I've found shit for like half the Japanese market price on occasion.
>>136330375
Already placed my order. No regret.
>>136328102
No, it's all shit.
>>136331167
>Am I the only person on the internet that just wants their statuettes to look either benign or badass?
Yes
Also, i'm currently on the lookout for some Bleach bikini-clad statues, preferably Yoruichi or Matsumoto. I can't find them anywhere, though.

>>136333710

>>136333631
Are you sure it's a debit card and not just a cash card? Have you set up all the online for it as well.

>>136333770
>Are you sure it's a debit card and not just a cash card?
Yup. It's my checking account card.
>Have you set up all the online for it as well?
Uhh... I don't know? How would I do that for US Bank?
>>136333779
To be fair, that's a really shitty looking website, and the copyright is only listed "1996-2012", so it's pretty fishy.
>>136333825
>How would I do that for US Bank?
Well, have you set up online banking? You should have to set up some secret questions or whatnot when you do and those are your Verified by Visa answers. Probably worth giving your bank a call and asking if your card is set up to use online desu
>>136333825
>Uhh... I don't know? How would I do that for US Bank?
>>136333710
Call your bank if you're still worried.
Got this for a decent deal at a local con. $140, which is roughly the price Mandarake wants or an open one sans postcard before shipping. Box is a solid B, but the figure itself was unopened, no postcard.
>>136334080
Native does good work, but that one's a bit rapey for my taste.
>>136334105
I got it because I really love Hanaharu Naruko's art, and the face is a perfect plastic representation of it. But yeah, just a wee bit rapey.
>>136333865
I recently made a purchase on AmiAmi, so I should think? I've emailed Mandarake and am hoping they will just let me pay with paypal.
>>136333876
Yeah, the bank was pretty useless in helping me with this problem.
>>136334149
Can you post a pic of said face?

What's the general opinion on bootlegs?
Does anyone else own any?
I've discovered I have no problem with getting lewd/h-figures for $15-$20 + free shipping since I'm more likely to get tired of them.

>>136330770
Steal yourself a gun and shoot yourself, thanks.
Dear, sweet, Jesus, this Verified by Visa thing is a useless piece of shit. I've talked to the right part of my bank at this point and they've said that I'm cleared for it, and my purchase still won't go through. Fucking hell, whydid I not choose paypal to begin with?
Oh god, those safety pins.

Well they're all pretty short so those proportions are realistic. Mio is the tallest at 160 cm.

>>136328104
I want to buy that wall scroll but its impossible to find.
I ordered the Josuke SAS rerelease a couple of weeks ago (didn't preorder in time so I had to order after it came out)
I paid for EMS shipping, it got here (England) from Japan in 2 days. In total, it cost me about £31ish, £9.50 for the shipping and about £21 for the figure (I think).
Then it was in customs for a full fucking week
After it got out of customs it got retained at the post office, been held there for days. Just got a letter today asking for another fucking £20 with VAT and the handling fee.
What the fuck? This is a pisstake. I didn't expect this and I never wanted to pay this much. Is there anything I can do about this?
>>136342616
Move to a better country I guess
>>136342470
I meant what brand of pillow, not cover.
>>136342588
http://buyee.jp/item/yahoo/auction/m154147624
5,000 yen. Which I honestly think is fine if you just want the wall scroll. It's 2good.
>>136342666
I fucking want to at this point
>>136342667
Just ordered one from a trusted seller at aliexpress and then added an old normal one I had.
>>136342616
>Is there anything I can do about this?
Not use EMS in the future. The only thing you can do from this is learn.
The time an EMS package spends in customs usually means that it actually takes longer to be in your house than it would have been if you had used SAL.
SAL usually slips through customs also, if the cost of shipping is low. In my experience a parcel with 3+ cheap things in it will get snagged by customs whereas two, at the most, more expensive things will be fine.
>>136341800
Weird. One would think that having square boxes around would be normal for stores that deal with a lot of different-sized merchandise.
>>136342616
>Using EMS to britbongland
Sounds like they fucked up at their end, you shouldn't be paying twice. Try showing the post office you already paid parcelforce.
>>136342907
I don't think he's paid any of the fees yet.
>>136342616
EMS is 100% guaranteed customs, but in my experience Registered SAL takes a month to arrive and since I resumed using RSAL every single one of my parcel has been hit by customs as well
>>136342907
The £20 is £X Customs + £15 Administration fee
>>136342885
But I wanted it quickly. SAL, according to HLJ (where I bought from) takes 10-30 working days whereas EMS takes 2-7. I have no patience, I can't wait that long
>>136342907
>>136342958
Not paid anything yet. I paid for the order from Japan, that's it. If I'd known this bullshit would happen I wouldn't have ordered the figure in the first place, it's not worth all this fucking effort and money - I wanted to pay £30 for it, that was fine, not £50.
>>136342958
You're right i misread it, i thought the £31 he mentioned was the first fee.
>>136343019
and now you know using EMS is only slightly less faster than using SAL. SAL usually takes around 2 to 3 weeks average.
>>136343019
>I can't wait that long
And yet here you are.
Try SAL next time, you'll be surprised. I've had one arrive 4 days after postage
>>136343059
You can't do shit about it at this point. You can either pay it or let them send it back to HLJ. I don't know what HLJ's return policy is, but i doubt they'll refund you shipping.
>>136343083
It took 2 days to get from Japan to here though, it's the shitty customs that held it back. Here's my tracking report thing
>>136342901
The company I work at deals with a lot of different-sized merch and we don't have any square boxes.
>>136343184
I'm not sure what I'm going to do. I don't want to drop another £20 on this but I do want the figure, and I really doubt I will be able to order another at this point. So I have no idea what I'm going to do.probably have to pay the £20 sadly
>>136341670
shitty base
>>136343186
My mistake, I guess I remembered it wrong, it's 3 days. But it was close to midnight when it shipped so it's almost basically 2 days
>>136343186
We know EMS is fast. It's the 100% rate of getting charged at UK customs and it staying there for a week that makes it shit.
>>136343310
>100% rate of getting charged at UK customs
Not really.
>>136342959
Same here, I've never got anything past customs and I ship everything RSAL.
>>136343448
Shit, forgot my pic.
>>136343455
I've even sent a Nendoroid by itself via RSAL to test which cost 4000 yen, and even that fucker got hit by customs after taking a month to reach the UK.
>>136343482
I'm jealous of you.
>>136343513
I'm going to pick my Yuuna up tomorrow. It spent over a week in customs and had multiple jewtax revisions about it.
I got a lovely letter from parcelforce this weekend saying that they want 40 pound from me.
>>136343448
If you buy something that's not taxable or valued at 1000 yen then sure
>>136343482
>>136343448
not >>136343310 but you're pretty lucky, IIRC parcelforce pick up all EMS and they customs charge for fun
>>136343242
You may just want to pay the £20 for the figure, as the £30 you have already paid are lost.
>>136341800
it's a cube not a square
>>136343570
They used to not always do that, I bought a life size standee, valued it at 6000 yen and sent it via EMS without being hit by customs.
More recently I bought a 1/4 Miku and valued that at 6000 yen yet it still got hit by customs when shipped via EMS
>>136343564
>>136343570
It was three figures and some character merch. I just realised it might be because I forwarded it and it was marked as personal belongings.
>>136343659
If you mark anything as used or personal goods they will get past customs in my experience
>>136343695
Or gifts
>>136342724
Thanks, realized i was searching yahoo jp for the wrong keywords. Not sure why I thought it would be under their names.
>>136343574
I probably will do. What pisses me off as well is that I'm going to have to pay more again for the Crazy Diamond figure to go along with Josuke. I'm gonna preorder that via AmiAmi this time though and I might use SAL instead, hopefully it will go better with that figure than it has with this one.
>>136343705
Gifts don't work, if anything it tells them to custom it
Everything I buy from Mandarake is marked as a gift and until I told them to label them as books they got custom'd
Is murrica the best country to buyfag in that isnt Japan?
>>136344174
Yes
>>136344174
Pretty much. Sure, it takes a bit longer to arrive compared to some other places, but all the duty-free is great.
Tomorrow.
why is the video with umaru nendoroid melting deleted

Love these perks of living in freedomland.
>>136337963
>13,700 yen
Nah.
>>136345895
That person lives in freedomland too though I think. Free shipping from Otakumode. They got a nice ugly otaku box and plenty of clearfile junk though.
>>136344971
God, that hair looks ugly.
>>136346996
>They got a nice ugly otaku box and plenty of clearfile junk though.
Why do people care about the outside appearance of the shipping box so much? Do you guys display the shipping box? I never understood this complaint.
And I bought a few things from there a few weeks ago, they gave some nice posters along with the clear file. Then again it's free shit so I don't get the issue anyways.
>>136347483
Because not everyone wants to inform their neighbors about his hobbies.
Not to forget that the packaging is very cringy even by /a/ standarts. Reminds me of those Narutards running around in cosplay on some stupid cons.
>>136347483
My guess is they are embarrassed people see the outside of the box and label them as otaku instead of not caring what other people think
>>136347630
>>136347663
You guys are assuming most normalfags even know what the work otaku means, and on top of that if they'll really see the word on the box. The only person that'll get a good look at it is the person delivering the packages. Then again it's no less embarrassing than the delivery person seeing the label of the contents inside, knowing that you buy plastic butts.
People here always shit on normalfags here but get embarrass to let normalfags know of their hobbies just seems pretty dumb to me. To me it makes no difference, I just care about whether or not they package it well and arrives safely.
>>136348253
>these are the same people who would wear a shirt saying LETS OTAKU LIFE and cat ear headphones
You clearly care enough to defend TOM, are you that tom shill? People don't like the box, get over it.
>>136348253
Anon, I have to work to get plastic bucks. All my packages get delivered to my neighbors. Those are already nosy enough because it comes from Japan, no need to give them more information.
Been stocking up on posters and wall scrolls. If my parents came to my apartment, at least they would see that I'm not gay.
>>136348361
There's people in this thread that wear idol shit all the time.
Yes, anyone that makes a point that says anything against what you think must be that guy right? You don't even try to prove my point wrong.
>>136348394
If you're already sending stuff to your neighbors and on top of that they're nosy, I'm sure they've got a good idea of what it might be considering what's on the label. If that makes you think you're safe from them finding out, that's fine then.
>>136348600
And everyone else?
Left or right orboth?
Is getting my plastic butts two to three weeks earlier worth 15 JPY?
So, /a/. Plastic tits? Or...
>>136348693
Everyone else who comes into my apartment are friends like my shit and like looking at it. It's all in a gameroom/mancave. I also mix in a ton of normalfag stuff, posters and prosports shit that I like to make it seem like I'm not a total weeb.
Only fags hide their stuff.
>>136348682
What point, that people shouldn't care about TOMs advertising? Your point is worthless, its entire rationality is based on your own opinion. Its as simple as you either like it or you don't.

No, but I ordered her from somewhere else after I saw the markup AmiAmi was selling a used figure of her for. I meant soon as in "I will be getting her soon".The place I ordered her from apparently still has some in stock, if you're interested.
>>136349418
I was legitimately being sarcastic. Since I'm not a poorfag I usually get EMS anyway for peace of mind. I just thought it was funny that the difference was only 15 JPY.
>>136349350
> Muh NHS
Fair point. I don't forget because I see them take 40% of my money each month.
>>136349467
Oh no, I already bought one for a friend who loves Jason actually, which is why I was asking. It's a good figure. Almost wanted one for myself and I don't like horror movies.
>>136349188
Any word on that rerelease?
>>136349599
It's a great sculpt.
I was thinking of also getting Freddy, but her figure doesn't interest me as much. I think it's probably the non-matching legs that ticks me off.
>>136349553
People on /a/ don't understand sarcasm, you should know that.

That orange jumpsuit is ugly.
My Kiss-shot got here today after the postman was a lazy cunt and didn't deliver it yesterday even though it went out for delivery.
This is for people wondering what the hell went on with shipping prices. First, it was purely a weight thing, The package was 1.9kg so the price for the EMS was correct, although it had 900g of packing material including the shipping box. The box AmiAmi sent it in isn't that much bigger than the figure box, around 4 cm of room on the short side and 2 cm on the long side packed with paper. They could've used a slightly smaller box, but it wouldn't of helped much.
>>136350060
>>136350063
Poor taste. It's a plugsuit, by the way.
>>136350231
GSC could of made better use of the space in the bubble pack though, but not much. So we would of got fucked with shipping regardless I think.
>>136350231
The box is so nice. I want to take it out again.
>>136350282
and everything inside.
Does AirMail usually get through UK customs okay? I went cheap for some CDs and never considered that someone else would look in the package. (I also marked it as a gift, because fuck VAT).
>no one has hotglued kiss-shit yet
What the fuck anons, do you even love her?
>>136350351
I've used airmail around 7 or so times to the UK and haven't had customs touch it.
>>136350351
Nothing gets though these days. I've even had them charge me on packages marked as gift. They also reduced the maximum on gifts these months, I think its like £34 now.
>>136350354
I love my waifu but you don't see me hotgluing her figs. Not that Kiss-shot is my waifu anyhow, but the same idea applies.

I have only used them once and had no trouble, but since it's not tracked I don't know if customs had considered it.
>>136350405
3 singles + postage came to just under £30, I ordered 6 but split them to two orders to try and avoid VAT (only cost 150 yen extra).

My detolfs rotate and the backsides are a black reflective like service. Then I just push them in to a walled off section and it looks like it's part of my entertainment center.
The black backs to my detolfs also make my figures stand out more. It's nice.
>>136350750

>>136350926
I cover them with cum so no one can see them.
>>136351105
I only use EMS and I've only gotten hit a few times. Just try to keep the total package cost down under 20k JPY and each thing in teh box less than 10k. Following this I've only even had to pay fees on expensive(13k+) scales. Also I live in Vancouver so its a SUPER high volume customs office, the workers might not give a shit because they got so much stuff to do.Back of box

I'm pretty sure that's the box that's bigger than small packet allows for. Which was the problem. Small packet has a size and weight restriction. it's too long.

when boatslut fad dies.
also boatslut swordfag doujin when
The 2014 miku expo bluray went on sale on tom.
With any luck my mailman will be handing me one of their "just anime my shit up senpai" boxes tomorrow.
I've wanted it since I went to the concert, so I'm pretty happy.
>>136353336
>my Japanese girls cant be fat!
Have you actually seen jap women besides the ones in porn and entertainment? Some are at least chunky.
all this fat shit in every thread
it will never be 2012 again when lolis ruled the world
>>136353546
Bath loli and succubus loli would like a word with you
>>136353546
>lolifags throwing a hissyfit again
Truly the most vocal of fags, worse than porkfags.
>>136353546
I avoid buyfag threads now because of this porkshit. I'd rather have fateshit and boatshit than a fat ugly whore hogging up the threads.
It's fucking disgusting and I can't believe how many shitty figures she gets.
wish there was an active gk thread somewhere. /toy/ moves as slow as molasses
>>136353546
Her stupid fucking hair horns always piss me off
>>136353570
for every one good loli fig theres a dozen pork figs and cowtit figures
>>136353620
reddit and tumblr have made her too popular
there's no going back
>>136351374
nice subtle cameltoe there
About to dust and reorganize my collection. Any ideas on how to make it work?
>>136353620
I avoid buyfags because its become more of a hugbox for autist neets and reddit tumblr instagram weeaboos than it usually was.
>>136353987
Cute louis, have that same Kuroi petite.
>>136354001
I usually just come here to see new releases and what other people are buying.
Also like seeing setups.
>>136353987
Throw away all the trash and stop displaying multiple series and scales together.
>>136354038
I usually want to post stuff but always get depressed when richfags post their monthly hauls
>>136354038
>set ups
>new releases
That keeps me lurking.
>almost every porkchop owner on mfc is female
Why do they buy shit?
>>136354058
Not many shows have a cast worth buying all the figures for.
Or if they do, they don't have figures for them.
>>136354122
They can relate.
Just a few more days
>>136354122
It makes them feel more confident
>>136354122
Because they can relate.
>>136354154
i love her but she's not worth the money alter made too many boring figures
>>136354122
>they fell for the healthy at every size meme
>>136354210
Waiting for more venus figs to come up too. Really shocked Nana isnt up for preorder by now.
>>136354224
Somehow, this makes me feel better about all the porkshit. It's pretty hilarious.
>>136354224
Pochaco looks so cute in that picture
It makes me want to buy her
>>136354122
Count the number of guys who own lewd loli figures. Bonus points if they look like they're an atheist wearing a fedora. Its what lolis are to men, bitches project onto porkloin to make them feel accepted.
>>136341609
How is the book?
>>136354352
I see, just like men project on to lolis to make them feel like a little girl.
Genius. It all makes sense now.
>>136354393
It's a lot of fun to read and I enjoyed getting to actually read Nisios prose. From what other people have said, the translation is much better than the fan one.
Honestly if you enjoyed even bake its pretty much worth the 10 - 15 dollars.
>>136354352
That's one of the stupidest comparisons I've ever seen.
Sounds like something a woman would think up.
>>136353781
Where's this mikoto fig at tho?
>>136354224
I want the porkchop loving fujos to leave
>>136348840
both wtf
>>136354623
>wtf
Don't do this.
>>136354038
I come here out of habit. Like every other website out there is faster about new releases info and you can find setup pictures easily.
I don't have to deal with stupid comments and emoticons here, I guess.
>>136354352
>fedora

>>136354675
You're right. I'd rather put up with blogposting sometimes than fucking 100% dumbasses and emoticons.
Here we only have like, 30% dumbasses. I can live with that.

Can you educate me on what it's like to spontaneously bleed every month?
>>136354295
It's her best figure.
How fast is Suruga-ya supposed to be?
It's been 4 days since I had order confirmation and nothing is happening
>>136354154
Why the wait? Bundle shipping on amiami?
Does kissshot feel small to anyone else? I thought she was supposed to be huge. Maybe it's just hard to tell because she's sitting.
>>136355947
She's kneeling, ayynon

You sure showed me. Be sure to tell your friends at lunch you owned some guy on an anonymous imageboard for major cred.
