Current expected date is the 31st of July.

Varion · 2009-06-29, 21:16

Ugh, typical. I hope they go with a delivery service that ships over the weekend, because I chose cash on delivery but will be away from the 3rd to the 8th

Kudryavka · 2009-06-29, 23:01

The last day of July?? Seriously???

And I picked the FedEx shipping option, so it'll take 6-9 more days... geezus.

I'm just anxious to get playing the lovely Key games. Now infinitely more with the Kanon patch pretty much released.

GreyFlcn · 2009-07-02, 22:15

So is it still possible to buy this?

Since the Himeya links seem to be down.

You had to pre-order this; they're only making enough copies to fill the pre-orders. Pre-orders closed in mid-May.

As someone else has said: Good luck on Yahoo Auctions.

Don't feel bad. Himeya upped the price $50 to put in their own pocket for no reason, so they would've cheated ya anyway.

Just in case this affects anyone (doubt it), they've updated the site with the size of the box and... box.

Actual item - 33cm × 21.5cm × 15cm （Height）
Packaged size - 46.5cm × 23.5cm × 19cm （Height）

Also, they'll be sent separately if you ordered multiples.

Oh, this affects me very much. Now I can calculate shipping and see if I'll have enough for a GSC Mikku Miku. Thank you kindly for posting this!
::edit:: So, using the rule that, in cm, lengthxwidthxheight =weight, the package will weigh 3.460375 kg. I hope those of you who are

ordering from overseas can use this to help you calculate shipping.

sekihoutai · 2009-07-15, 14:39

Well I checked the shipping charges on JAA website and if the weight is correct then FedEx should cost $61.62 and EMS $64.81, with the current exchange, to North America. I think the extra $3 is worth it if it is coming faster.

I wasn't expecting to pay this much on shipping. oh well.

edit - I can't find the website with the dimensions. Could I have a link?

Think of it like you're paying for one of the games with that money. Also, 3.5 kg? Really?

sekihoutai · 2009-07-15, 14:49

Yeah, I'm glad it's still cheaper than actually purchasing all of them separately and it comes with all the extras. It's 3.5 kg using the packaged size.

Kudryavka · 2009-07-15, 18:43

Oh my. You save 20 yen if you go EMS and get it quicker than FedEx! I'm switching.

Glad those dimensions were released.

Well, if you're getting insurance on it (which you should), the FedEx cost gets upped ~$3.50, and EMS ends up costing less. Barely, but it's less.
And I'd like that link to the site with the dimensions, as well. Maybe they have a real weight there.

If it was there I would've posted it. But here:

Um does anyone know if auction japan ships internationally because I've been trying to message the sellers and they're not responding back

Proto · 2009-07-28, 22:14

They do, you can see the shipping pricing discussion all over the thread

deadly78 · 2009-07-28, 22:50

I think they're talking about the preorder though I was to late for that and I have to get it from Yahoo auction Japan but my friend told me they don't ship internationally =(

99% of Yahoo Japan sellers don't ship internationally. You'd have to use a deputy service which will.

Proto · 2009-07-28, 22:52

Aahh.. sorry, I misunderstood. Still, you can use a proxy service like Japan Auction Agency itself for your auction needs.

deadly78 · 2009-07-28, 23:04

I know i'm gonna sounds like a newb but whats deputy and proxy services

deadly78 · 2009-07-29, 00:21
