(that's another additional $20-$25cdn for brokerage & customs) I think my confirmation emails from them said it's all EMS shipping. Though now that I say that I can't find clear wording on my order.

I'd actually prefer EMS shipping (for us in Canada) it usually comes directly to my door from our Postal Service and I rarely get customs & duty and there isn't the Carrier Brokerage Fees. I don't see it spelled out anywhere on LunaPark - it just says shipping. I just hope its properly packed in a box and not in a DHL bag.

borgified Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Amazon,jp didn't work for us Canuckle Heads (I tried, but no one was willing to send it up North of the 49 parallel). Then came the Jacked up 3rd party prices afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely spaced on the ”all buying options” and got cart jacked by the time I realized to do that. Fortunately, I landed HLJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sildani Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 …I had thought this would be available, uh, worldwide? That AmiAmi link says it can’t be shipped to Japan… I are confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess a "World-Wide" Macross toy release just means Japanese retailers can ship it to any buyer in the world without fear of getting harrassed by HG....still....I would hope this HG/BW agreement eventually means we can order Macross merch via local retailers at some point....otherwise, I don't see what will have changed since the biggest issue is the expense of shipping these items from Japan....oh well, assume the position for a bit longer I suppose....

borgified Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) I think it’s 12 am for us West Coasters if I’m not mistaken @Sandman Edit: My time zone change sucks.. Less than one hour for us on the West Coast. Don’t worry about me, not going to get it. Saving my $$ for something else.
