Yeah, I figured as much... The shipping, handling, and postage will cost more than the item itself. :bleh: :sweat:

I think someone (Groink?) mentioned a service that would do that... But it's pricey because of the handling and postage.

It might be cheaper to fly to Japan and pick up the magazines in person. :beaten:

Well, I would happily go, if someone paid for the airfare ;)

But seriously, if I could find someone already in Japan who would be interested, I would do it. We get stuff from Japan all the time (at work) by EMS (Express Parcel Post) and the postage is very reasonable.

Actually aho(chaude) has been bopping back 'n' forth to Japan since his wifey and kids live there... I think. :sweat:

If you have the money to spend and if you think the item is worth purchasing, it wouldn't harm any to PM Freefall and see if he's all good with it.

Nah, that's okay... I don't wanna impose.

I think Wynter is referring to the intricate beadwork and you b-kun are referring to the style. It reminds me of a 1920's flapper gown. It is exquistite, no matter what, where or who inspired it. :woot: Hard to make Ryoko-chan look bad on any given day. :victory: :mrgreen:

Not a magazine cover, but a cover nonetheless. :inlove:
