Their shipping rates are usually worse so you would've probably ended up spending more anyway.

Im still sad I missed out on the Free! yukata one they had awhile back, but my order that month was too much...though this month I have tons of utapri stuff (bookmarks, erasers, a cup, and trying to get the fork and spoon if they ever get unsold out
)I was going off the total shipped cost based on their shipping calculator. Is that usually inaccurate?

OMG, you're buying GSC Shimakaze? You sellout!
j/k, though it's not as bad as BBTS selling her for $180 lolololololol
My total with SAL Registered shipping to New York state was 6610 JPY. Make of that what you will.
Ah, then no that's usually the real deal.

Finally received that Cryska figure from the MFC seller that took her 2 weeks to ship.
Price was good, actual shipment wasn't that bad and she nearly looks unopened.
So it wasn't really bad.

The same as me, except I did sal unregistered. 410 is the extra registered cost. I should have grouped it with Tharja since I was doing ems with her anyway.

Haha, there's no way I'm buying that, way too overpriced. With the shipping though Crunchy is surprisingly cheaper for this particular fig.

AmiAmi still has it in stock. At least that is where I am getting it from.

Wait, is it Shimakaze or not?
oh my god, crunchyroll wants $70 for that SEGA prize figure of Yoko Littner! lolol, what cunt-rags.

Nope, it is not Shimakaze. It's something, in my opinion, a little more high quality.

I don't like you guys....always putting down Shimakaze in here lol

Is it that embarrassing that you can't tell us? XD
It's not Shimakaze I hate, it's the KanColle obsession that's only going to get worse. On the bright side, if the market is flooded with KanColle figures, that's a whole lot of shit that I don't have to buy.

To be honest I've never even seen the anime that she's from. I generally don't buy figures if I haven't seen the source material, or if they're too lewd for that matter.

It's actually a CCG video game. The anime isn't out yet, but it's coming. oh god, is it coming.

Not at all, I don't have the cash to buy it yet so I don't want to post it in case of the off chance that someone snipes it away from me.
Welp shows what I know. May look it up out of curiosity.

I cannot wait for it too, I welcome the KanCole apocalypse! I have already told my wallet to stop whining.
Heh, we're not dicks like that.

Is it a preorder or something that has been released? You might be able to find it preowned for cheaper if it's the latter.
Found my first Ironman

It's already been released, I found one for cheaper on Mandarake but the box and inner packaging are damaged. A little worried that the fig may be damaged through shipping if the box integrity is bad
Paypal likes to hit you when you're down like that. Goes well with your avatar. Poor Sei/Amuro.
Edit : Lucifer has been repaired and is magnificent looking. Putting her back together was a bit of a puzzle, but nothing too difficult. Still undecided on which base side I want to exibit. I like the heart but the demon face is badass...
Indeed, I really need a Mako in her goku uniform soo bad.
Every figure in mandarake says box damaged. Unless it's severely damaged, and they will usually post pictures of it if it is, you'll have a hard time finding any damage. I say go for it. Everyone that's ever used mandarake will vouch for them.

Only problem I ever had with something like that was a broken ahoge on a Saber.
I got Koto's Misty today. I have to say that Amiami let me down this time with this B/B. One of the pigtails was broken. Whether it was broken in shipping or it was already like this when they sold it, who can say. She also seems very dirty, with just tons of paint transfers. Very poor QC on Koto's part. She probably should have been a C. This is easily the worst B figure I've gotten. I just superglued her pigtail back on and will take pictures in a bit. Most of the defects are on the back of the figure, so at least it won't look too bad when displayed.

That's pretty surprising. AmiAmi is usually great with B/B figures. I've never had an issue thus far.
EDIT: Okay, March. Fuck you, GTFO. I'm not checking AmiAmi pre-owned anymore this month. Srsly. UGH!
Here's what I grabbed... Curse you, impulse buys!!!!!! On the bright side, I saw one of them at random a few weeks back and really took a liking to her, but I never thought I'd see one for sale.... I got both of these in A/B condition for 4.9k (total) before shipping...

I am, I am, I'm done for the month. That's it. No more. I'm tapping out. You win, March. You win. XD I'm having these two shipped on their own, as I'd like my actual March order from AmiAmi to fit in one box.
Though I see I missed a Tsukasa Bullet figure! Drats!
If she sells overnight, It was this one, if you're curious.
That does it. I'm removing Mandarake from my favorites. Well, not really...but I will be avoiding the site for a while. Too many great figures.
I managed to find a new/never opened Sansai Muramasa [Max Factory] in perfect condition. For 12k yen. Sculpted by the God known as Shining Wizard. I ordered her.
I know not what I do, but I've been searching for this one for a long time, and I couldn't let it pass me by. :/

You have good taste. I almost bought her from N-Y once or twice before she shot up to $150. But I never pulled the trigger because something about her face didn't rub me the right way.
AmiAmi pre-owned section is the ninth circle of (wallet) hell itself.
Her f is what interested me initially. It's kind of a bored "what are you looking at?" kind of expression. It suits her demeanor quite well.
I checked and she's now 17,500 yen at N-Y. Insane.

PM sent. I had no idea where she was from but found her easy enough on mfc.... surprisingly easy.

O-M-G. 3.6k shipping on those two A/B's I ordered. Waaaaaaaaaah. I wonder if EMS would be that much more.
*shrug* I've never seen her before. Just thought it might be something you'd like.

lol wow, that's adorable.
and yeah, i need to avoid the pre-owned section for the rest of the month. I had 1 pre-order for this month and nothing else and now its only the 15th and I have 3 additional figures in transit.
