Actually, they don't ship outside Japan. I use a Japan-based service that settles all of your YJ bidding deals. They even receive the merchandise from the seller, then re-ship anywhere in the world. It's quite expensive, so I only use the service for those really REALLY hard to get items like Japanese drama laser disc sets, used OST CDs, Sakai Noriko stuff, etc.

Wow cool! How much more do they charge and what's the website? I might give them a try since the calendars go for 500\ and yesasia when they had it sold them for $30!

I remember you mentioned this a while back... Yeah, the service ain't cheap... We need to get an insider in Japan to help us with this demand for collectibles...

Not for much longer. She's headin' this way this summer, I believe.
Yeah, she'll be here in June. But the latest she can come is in August. So if you guys want something, let me know ASAP so I can tell her to send it to me. I'm sending your stuff tomorrow, bmw. I'll wake up early to do it! If she finds anything Ryoko there, I'll have her send it to me. Weird though, she said that it's hard to find the otakki stuff that we like. (ie: posters and Kanebo stuff) _________________

Just not too much things ok?! I don't want her to feel "Sokubaku" (overwhelmed). She's already taking care of my stuff, you have to remember. (My Hotman Special should be coming anytime soon now!) She has work too, so just a warning...... It may take a while. Send me your list and your address. I'll see what I can do. _________________

You're too kind, Aho.
If your gal runs into Ryoko-chan, maybe she can bonk her on the head and have her shipped over here. I'll pay for the shipping.
