Grey728 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Nah.. I think my 1/48 VF-1 itch has been scratched well enough. All I think I want now is GBP Armor and a 1/3000 or larger scale TV SDF-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chyll2 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Ordered tv super from FJ. Edit: to those who uses it previously for web items, is there a domestic shipping and payment fee if you are using Credit card?

I tried to sell my significant other, but because she's so bitchy they ended up charging me to take her --> so it was cheaper to keep her. On another note: this is my first time using FJ. After all is said and done, how much extra would you predict I will have to pay to get this is my hands (i.e. charge #2)?

The 3D printed Minmay figure from Arcadia incurred a domestic shipping fee. The PF VF-0D did not have a domestic shipping fee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slave IV Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Roy needs to hand over his girl Claudia for all the money I'm spending on him recently. Well technically, I'm only paying for his Super Parts up front. Wait, that didn't sound right... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity is Optional Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) IIRC, the domestic shipping will be a few hundred (600?) yen, plus the 300yen or 700yen service fee, plus the international shipping. For my prior order of 4x DYRL supers, I had them shipped alongside 3 other things from p-Bandai (2 RG crossbones, a MG heavy arms, and a RG nu funnel set) via EMS and it was just shy of 14000yen.

I'm still on the fence about getting it from Nin-Nin...still deciding if I should get a 2nd one from them (I got order from FJ like everyone else above). I've had 1 good experience with Big In Japan...but don't see it there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you guys mentioned it, I also realized I have a Super Pack order from them as well. I thought it was just the pandemic thing that's why they're not sending out packages to the US. Same with AE which I also have another order of Super Pack and mentioned that they don't ship to the US as of this moment. Anyways, thanks for the heads up guys.

jenius Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 The pandemic certainly didn't help and AE didn't do anything to help. NY had other shipping options... But they don't respond to tickets and sometimes don't even seem like they have your item to ship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lolicon Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 NY had over a month to ship my VF-4 before Japan Post suspended services to the USA. And they just sat on it. I got my money back through Paypal, bought it off Amazon for slightly less with shipping, and it was at my door within a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chyll2 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 @no3Ljmchanging shipping method will help if and only if they respond to you. They are also affected by pandemic. For the record,SAL is not an option. People are either downgrading to Ferry or upgrade to EMS, Airmail or third party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to the pandemic, and the suspension of Air services from Japanpost to the USA. You will need to upgrade to UPS or downgrade to Ferry to get it shipped out. Or wait it out until Japanpost resumes regular service . For A-E. they do not offer much alternative options at all so some member just have A-E ship it domestically to their Tenso japanese address and then use Tenso(proxy) to ship it to usa.
