Fri 2010/12/10 03:07 JST
I actually got this package last year, but just wanted to share it because the box was really funny when i first saw it ~
It was when i got estel and her sister whom i'll introduce later during Christmas time ~
I kinda felt bad for the deliveryman > _ < it must've been heavy =x
so like, it was expensive, mainly cuz there were figures and plushies too !
i live in canada so there's really high import tax > _ <
very neatly packaged, i love SMJ ~
i climbed inside afterwards and played for a while ~
Estel was inside one of them ~
Now open them up and get more pictures XD Congratz
wait, this was last year xD
Oh right... too excited when I saw the box, completely ignored the date XD
hehe
I want to play in the box too!
reminds me of those bubble ball playgrounds for kids x3
Yeah, those are awesomee! :D
I still get in those and i'm 14. Of course, it's for my 6 year-old and 1 year-old sisters, of course >.>... <.<...XD
Of Course! i'm 19, but i'm still the youngest in my household, so it's my duty to get in big boxes! :D
They're alive! lol
they couldn't wait to get out of the cramped box !
I swear, if I am anywhere near that large box of packing peanuts... I'm gonna step right into the box ^^;
congrats, even though i have no interest with dolfie XD
how much shipping? i still feel bad whenever i get charged with shipping with figures.
last nov figure orders cost me 24,000 yen on shipping alone T_T
i guess, we US customers are lucky enough not to get custom taxes.
OH, a good thing about shipping is, the larger the package, the cheaper it is ~
shipping was only $47.30 and it was Priority International, reached me in 3 days ~ insurance included and stuff
wow o_o unlike in Canada the larger it is the more ridiculously expensive it is =_=
is that so ? > _ < i never shipped anything actually so i dont' know, but that's really badd , luckily you don't pay the shipping right ?
Well usually I communicate with the buyer to check if they prefer shipping and I warn them how much it can be >_< Canadapost website usually give a rather accurate estimate of shipping which the amount shocks me time to time, even for a small parcel =-=
Don't I know it >_< I was just sending something real light and not too big, but I paid more than $15 to send it and it was the slowest too... Why so pricey CanadaPost???
That's odd. A good deal of the time, if an item/package is fairly large, you're likely to be slapped with dimensional weight shipping. At least in the US.
i see ~ that is odd, i had to pay $15 for a small box figurine shipping , and this, at least 10x heavier and 4-5x larger was $47
you do if you buy enough of certain things :P
ouuuuuuuch :(
> _ <
NICE!
thanks :3
Dont you just hate the CBSA?... They took my manga once, them losers love taking anything remotely they deem explicit. Ive been taxed acouple of times probably 1:9 packages get taxed but everytime i pay for it, i feel sad.
omg they TOOK it ? > _ < that's horrible
and ya... they tax everything's that's over about $110 or so... sighs*
You ship via SAL or was it EMS?
EMS, but according to deputy service companies, customs check all
i know there's a rumour where customs don't tax SAL but that's not quite true
well, ive ordered with both on bulk. It seems to me it varries with custom officials just like at the border, whether they want to be d1cks or not. so you probably just got one with a bad day. though all packages from the states are taxed, i know that.
you're right ~ sometimes my amiami orders from japan EMS dont' get taxed
whereas when i order even a small figure from the US around $100, it always get taxed =x
when do we get to see whats in the other yellow doll-coffin?
very soon nomy ~ very soon ~
I feel your pain when I have to pay customs fees! =_=;;;
ya it's horrible > _ <
Yikes! That's a hefty import tax. I guess I've been lucky so far. Can any fellow Canadians tell me if they're taxed on stuff from Volks USA?
I ordered an outfit from them, shipped by UPS and I was taxed.
I think by using UPS it's a guaranteed that your package from US or wherever will be taxed...
can I play in the box too?
expensive important tax!
yesh you can !! x3
AH~ Esteel...
Just how beautiful she is that I wanted but I cannot find her anyway.
It's even easier to get a saber than her now.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaamn! That's a lot! I've never gotten a single package worth 2000$!! Even with 2 DD's in one package it was still below 1500$ ^^" You are hardcore!
wow!!! what have huge package!!! Congratulations!!
I just had a Dollfie shipped to me from SMJ and the shipping cost was $127!
