mechaninac Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Mine is in SAL untraceable La-La land. I'll get her when I get her; it usually takes 2.5-3 weeks, but my last SAL shipped order from amiami took almost 6 weeks to arrive... that had me thinking I had incurred a loss.

myk Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Not worth the savings IMO. I mean, we're already spending big bucks on girls and bots, I don't see the point of skimping on the shipping... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB0 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 I suppose it should be noted that it isn't like SAL delays are because stuff is getting lost or anything. The very nature of SAL means they can't guarantee when a shipment goes out. It leaves whenever there's extra room in a shipment. This is documented up-front. So it's not that incompetence abounds, just that the core premise IS that shipping soeed is a gamble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzan Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 One advantage I've had with SAL, is once every blue moon, customs lets the package (which is of course above the 20 Euro threshold for being duty bound) arrive without me having to pay anything. That never happens with EMS or the like when customs always picks up on them and makes me pay the price. And the shipment is stuck with them a couple of days usually before I'm notified how much I have to pay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 I've only had ONE setback using SAL shipping during my 15 years of Macross/JDM toy collecting. If you don't mind waiting its a nice alternative. But if you're the impatient type then by all means go EMS. I'd also go with the latter for your high ticket items. Anyways...so pumped for the movie boxset next month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anime52k8 Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well not from Megahouse, but do you think another company might try something like that? nope. It's not that megahouse doesn't want to because they've done plenty of explicit figures before. It's down to what the license holder will let the figure makers do.
