Fruits is not my cup of tea
not into the pseudo-fashion otaku shit

but I literally just got 60 issues of Free&Easy today in the mail, been waiting since early December

How come? hasn't fruits been around since the 70s or 80s or something? It's a shame. I purchased my 2 or 3 copies from the brisbane moma when they had a pop up store to go with a fashion exhibition in late 2014

How much was that shipping?

you really don't wanna know lol
phenomenally wrapped; four issues triply bubble wrapped with air pillows everywhere; they could've dropped this shit out of a plane and it would've been fine
it was 264 bucks

Nah not really. I've been buying Japanese magazines for like 7 years and the shipping is always an issue. List price for the magazine is like 6 bucks, and shipping per issue is usually like 5 bucks. Yes I know you can buy mags for a buck each, but that doesn't mean shit if EMS and the courier fees add 12 bucks to the cost . I bought all 60 for 40 bucks, I think
This was expensive, but it's still a good deal
I'll probably go to Japan one day and get a fuckload of back issues that I'm missing. But I'll wait for the yen to drop in value again

I paid 15k shipping for 52 mags 4 day tracked shipping through fedex

Sure its a "good deal" because you'll get fucked trying to buy mags here but you still paid way more and waited way longer than you could have

Also the exchange rate is pretty good right now, plus its just about the cheapest time of year to travel to japan not really sure what you're waiting for? An extra 8 yen on the dollar lmao?

>15k shipping

Yens, right?

>>12209385
Uh yeah what else would i pay the japanese in

Post more pictures stop arguing over shipping

>>12209374
I went through buyee out of convenience. They offer FedEx shipping to some countries but not America
Also, Free&Easy is printed on heavy paper and most issues are 250-300 pages. If I was buying issues of Begin or Smart that would've been a different story

what are some similar mags to it?
