unregistered, probably as much as any package - so very low chance. Registered, not at all.

I've taken a risk on my first unregistered SAL, more to see if it comes through without fees. (yes I know just one test isn't enough to come to a proper conclusion).
 
I ship SAL unregistered all the time. Saves $2-3 dollars each package which adds up over time.

They normally come in a little less than two weeks. About 12 days.
I prefer it 'cause EMS and SAL registered all require signatures and people aren't always home to sign for them.
 
Not quite figure related, but this pouch finally came in the mail for me today and I'm so excited it fits my 3DS. I didn't even know it would when I bought it.

Now I can show my true power level in public without resorting to anime shirts and tacky keychains on my bag.

Man, I really like my gold Zelda 3DSXL but if I had a good excuse to buy another one I would totally get that PQ one in a heartbeat. The only excuse I really have is that I could probably technically afford one, and that's not good excuse.

I'm more than happy to go to the post office and pick my packages up just to see the confused look on the face of the postal service employee when their eyes hit the "used toy" line of the customs form.
 
why the hell do i not own that zero suit samus fig.

Dunno, but you should work on fixing that while the price is still reasonable...

Wasn't into figure collecting last holiday season. How much do I have to worry about a lost package using SAL?

Just much longer wait times really, I'd still go with registered at the very least, but I tend to go overboard and use EMS in December just to speed up delivery times..

I like how her face looks

That's a she??? *looks at unplayed copy of fire emblem*




Queen of the Dead* seems like a shoe in for December, flex payers are getting final payment due notices, so it's just a matter of will she arrive before or after Christmas. Also Devil's Cheerleader arrived in the UK today, but I have no clue if it'll get stuck in customs or not...

actually worse is that they do not use a good base and metal pegs and her leg snap in half then falls down while the sword and her paint get scratched

you can tell the center of gravity is leaning forward. Unless the base gets bigger and heavier, this will always be a concern
Another Worse Case is that the figure itself is too heavy and the metal rod in the leg is strong but not inserted far enough into the leg. Thus the leg breaks in half at the slightest wobble, figure topples over and smashes to the ground breaking her head and sword.
I wouldn't cry though
 
Well, I'm looking forward to seeing how the slayer turns out. It's expensive so I haven't preordered her but if she turns out good and her price doesn't spike after release, I may try to pick one up, but I don't want it badly enough to preorder at that price.

Unrelated to elins, but speaking of deliveries, my ToV Yuri and Rita figures along with Suigintou nendo are at the PO for pickup tomorrow! Also, kimono Homura should arrive tomorrow, too! :D :D

The Kirigiri I ordered shipped SAL Registered on the 19th and tracking info shows it hasn't even checked in on the US side yet :lol

I use SAL unregistered way more as it often comes through no fees what so ever.
 
Ok, pre ordered my first Nendoroid (Elsa). And I did another one, but what is a (Provisional Preorder)? That means it might not happen? I'll not have to pay if it doesn't go through, right?

Also, Nendoroids are so cheap, I might have to stay away from them otherwise I'll clear my wallet.

EDIT: Welp, I said I needed to stay away from AmiAmi. Just impulse-bought this:

They are fantastic as a pair, not saying you should buy them, but if we are watching you splurge in real time, you gotta buy them as a set if you do...

They will kill me here, there is absolutely no space left for me to put those figures. Thank god people here don't mind how I spend my money, but the space is limited.

EDIT: Yeah, I just got Jason+Freddy. This is my face right now when I looked at my wallet:

Edit: Oh and provisional preorder means you've ordered and they know you have but aren't too sure if they'll be able to fulfil the order, either due to lack of stock etc.

The awesome choice, when you don't have room for figures, you buy them anyway, you'll make room when they arrive!
 
Archonia has a sale going on, so I grabbed the Phat Iori Minase I was eyeing for weeks now. Seeing as she's pretty hard to find nowadays, I thought the drop from 90 to 70 euros was a decent deal.
