I've imported goods from Japan and damn are those expensive to ship

tbh that's why I normally choose a lower priced shipping. like i don't really need my new figurine two days after it's released i'm fine with waiting a bit longer for it hahah.

Maybe I should just go that route, then. I usually get anxious knowing I have an item on the way so that's why I go out of the way for shipping

255139. Registered SAL is usually fine for importing stuff from Japan. Unless you're importing wafer boxes because they have limited edition cards in them.

I'd been using EMS which has been really great getting processed through ISCs here.

Import duty and tax is crazy on imports here for anything over 15 quid. Then the post office sticks a "handling charge" on top of that :(

EMS is the most expensive shipping cost and unless I'm getting it for a gift I don't do it. I've never had an issue with not receiving an item though SAL.

Also ew on those import taxes and such. Must make things really hard to import for you.

I guess I'll try SAL next time. Although don't mind me if I get a little impatient

donavannj March 6th, 2019 7:05 PM

255144. I do relate to sometimes being impatient with international orders. Though with preorders I've usually already waited several months for release, what's another month on top of that?

Tsutarja March 7th, 2019 7:42 AM

It's weird as well. Sometimes my orders arrive fine, but other times I have to sign and/or get missed notices and have to pick them up at the post office.

alisaie March 7th, 2019 8:10 AM

255146.

Since im never home when my packages come its almost always the missed slips from international packages for me ahah.

Also same re: preorders. I waited seven months i can wait another two weeks - month for it.

Tsutarja March 7th, 2019 8:38 AM

Never actually pre-ordered stuff from Japan o.o maybe I should just to readjust my expectations on international goods lmao

alisaie March 7th, 2019 4:45 PM

I normally preorder figurines from amiami bc if i don't it's harder to obtain the figurine i want later. i unfortunately missed out on a ash figurine i wanted (or two) but I do have one preordered so i'm looking forward to getting that one

I have no regrets.

It is always very wise not to dwell on the past

alisaie March 10th, 2019 11:58 AM

Its better to just keep on going and not look back!

Sami March 10th, 2019 12:07 PM

244153

I do that all the time tho xd

alisaie March 10th, 2019 12:08 PM

244154.

Admittedly i do it sometimes too. Cant be helped but gotta keep pushing forwatd regardless.

Starlight March 10th, 2019 12:10 PM

I think we're all better at giving advice than following it ourselves. I know I am ;)

Sami March 10th, 2019 12:45 PM

244156

yea pretty much

ahaha aint that the whole truth

Sami March 10th, 2019 11:55 PM

244159

Altho my advice should never be followed either tbh

Starlight March 11th, 2019 9:19 AM

So... does that mean we should not follow your advice about never following your advice?
