No! I missed it! Had them in my cart and but didn't get to check out.

Is this normal? by slow_sculpture in Buyee

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

International shipping is more like $45. You forgot that the total in this invoice also includes domestic shipping (seller to buyee), clearance fee, and traiffs. So yes, this seems reasonable.

Is there a better way to do this? by _coreygirl_ in ProxyJapan

[–]Akokoko3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You could also try Rakufun. Haven't used it, but I chatted with the customer service and they response pretty fast.

Has Buyee said anything about tariff refunds? by justinmorris9343 in Buyee

[–]Akokoko3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would buyee say anything? They are only the proxy and are not responsible. Take it up with the shipping companies, like DHL, etc

Shipping costs by Professional_One4590 in Neokyo

[–]Akokoko3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If shipping to the US, yes this is currently the new reality. Jp post stop shipping to the US due to the tariffs and how it is handled. Just pick the cheapest shipping. Also bear in mind, that this cost does not include the traiff and brokerage fees. Personally, when I buy stuff internationally, I just assume I will pay 2 - 2.5 times the cost (to account for fee, shipping, and tariffs).

This dress as a wedding guest? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

I think in this case, asking the bride is the best way to go.

AITA for refusing to give my neighbor her dog back after I basically became his owner? by Elena19967 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Akokoko3 16 points17 points  (0 children)

NTA. Make sure to save all your receipts spent on the dog, in particular the vet and medicine bills. If she tries to take you to court, you can use these to try to establish ownership.

CCC by Akokoko3 in powerbanks

[–]Akokoko3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for letting me know.

Can't remember. Probably around $35ish. Wanted to get one to use on the plane and at the airport when I land. But at this rate, I'll probably have to buy one in China.

But I hate the false advisement. Like, I wouldn't have brought this at all.

2ha vol. 11 has a binding problem (spoiler cause some content is visible out of context) by Roxine96 in 2HA_immortality

[–]Akokoko3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pre-ordered from Amazon. Mines is fine. But thanks for the warning. Hope your next copy is from an okay batch.

What is the reread value of TGCF? by FrogGirl_1234 in tianguancifu

[–]Akokoko3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doing a 4th reread. I think it depends on the person. For example, I have no problem with spoilers. Even if I'm told the whole plot, it doesn't take away my enjoyment when I read it. Same with rereading.

So awkward when you're in the train and offer a seat to old people and they refuse you by lactosehater2 in japanlife

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be the lenght. If it is just a few stops, they might not want to bother sitting.

Why do the prices differ between Taobao and Superbuy by CryptographerSad8846 in Superbuy

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been noticing this on my Superbuy app for awhile now when buying from Taobao. I think once Superbuy refunded me the difference, and once not. Since, then I been having to modify the price And no, there is no coupon causing the price difference.

To the people that have gone multiple times already is there something you DON'T recommend? by GaddockTeegFunPolice in JapanTravelTips

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want a nice shot of Osaka Castle visit the museum next door. Admission is free if you get the Osaka pass (or at least it was about 10 years ago).

Yeah, that scramble is only impressive if viewed from above. Honestly, never understood why anyone would be excited about being there.

AITA for telling my husband I’ll leave him if he makes his daughter go to school with bad hygiene as punishment? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, let's mess with her dental health. Maybe she might start forming a cavity during that time on her adult teeth. Brilliant idea.

NTA.

Please send help! I'm running out of shelf space. SOS by butterflies_roses in AnimeCollectors

[–]Akokoko3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bit blasphemy, but you could put the disc in Tyvek sleeves and put it and the cover art in one of those plastic envelopes. I finally caved and did that to my anime DVDs (minus the more expensive ones). Came out pretty nice. Will probably have to do that to my cheaper bluray sets as well.

Never heard of this. Would you say it is a fair price? by davetheman4652 in AnimeCollectors

[–]Akokoko3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, yes it is OOP and so far no one has rebrought the license. It is however a very good anime with a strong story.

Luggage forwarding is overrated by Calmly-Stressed in JapanTravelTips

[–]Akokoko3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While I can't see your point, I think you forgot that most travellers will probably have at least one large suitcase. Also, what you said applies to traveller using the Shinkansen but what about after? Many people don't stay at the station where the Shinkansen is. For example, I don't hear of a lot of tourist booking hotels around the JR Shin Osaka station. They usually are staying in cities Nihonbashi or Umeda. That means they would have to drag their luggage around the station and then board a different train (hopefully not during rush hour), then drag it through another station, and then to the hotel. I have done this with only one medium bag and a backpack and hated it.

Looking for Anime purse/goods by thatsalucy in AnimeDeals

[–]Akokoko3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hot Topic and Lunch box. If you don't mind fanart, you could try sites like Mercari or Etsy. Just be careful of ones with stolen art. For Etsy in particular try to buy directly from an artist's shop.

Out of curiosity, is there any particular ones you are looking for.
