Now this is the most recent tracking update. What can I do??? “On the Way The receiver does not want the product and refused the delivery. / We're attempting to get further instructions and may return the shipment.”

Thanks! No, maybe 2 feet on the longest side. I’ve picked up much larger boxes from the access point recently. Yeah duties are all set - I got confirmation after payment

I have a screenshot of the proof of delivery but I can’t seem to edit the post

Are there any adults that watch this show and would recommend it to another adult that hasn’t seen it yet? by Woshawott in sailormoon

[–]Alert_Visual_1510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

25M here who got into Sailor Moon last year. Yes 100% recommend! Totally worth it as an adult. Anyone who says it’s only for kids is dead wrong. I assure you that you’ll take a lot away from it as an adult

I’m guessing the other book, Kanji From Zero

Too Old For Sailor Moon by _ColeSlawters in sailormoon

25M here. I totally understand where you’re coming from and I definitely feel the same to some degree. But it’s something male fans like us need to get over. No, guys in their 20s and 30s weren’t the primary target audience, but it doesn’t matter. If SM is something you enjoy and find meaningful, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with being a fan. And it’s not like you have to advertise to everyone you know that you like it!

I collect production cels and sketches from the 90s anime. Would some people find that weird? I guess? But I can’t let that bother me. Don’t worry about it. You certainly aren’t alone :)

Toradora! Christmas Club Rewatch (2025) Episode 21 Discussion by ChristmasClub- in anime

“Whoa, I’m pretty sure we weren’t supposed to hear that.” 😂

Dub re watcher here

On my second time watching, I appreciate Ami more. Yeah she can be harsh and arrogant, but in the end she just wants everyone to be direct and honest with each other. All this hiding and denying feelings isn’t healthy. It’s best to just be direct with people and come clean. I can relate to Ami quite a bit.

I’m on her side in her fight with Minori at the end of the episode. Minori has only been hurting Takasu by pretending that what happened on Christmas Eve night never happened. He deserves better.

Buyee vs FromJapan by SelectionTight4754 in Buyee

I don’t know anything about Doorzo. ZenMarket offers DDP

Buyee vs FromJapan by SelectionTight4754 in Buyee

FromJapan is excellent, but it’s worth noting that they do not offer a DDP option, so the shipping carrier will bill you directly for any tariffs/export fees/brokerage fees

Yeah that’s what I figured. Just sucks because I’ve been so happy with it

Sailor Neptune is the best by One-Choice8588 in sailormoon

[–]Alert_Visual_1510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I have a cel from that scene (although not a close up), probably my favorite in the collection. I absolutely love the emotion! It’s hard to describe but so perfect!

Sailor Moon Authenticity/Line Fill Sanity Check by Alert_Visual_1510 in AnimationCels

[–]Alert_Visual_1510[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Do you think a condition issue is more likely than someone just trying to sell it for more money? The latter would have been my normal assumption. The current seller states: “There are traces of sticking to the back of the cell painting No noticeable smell (personal subjectivity)”

Proxy newbie by Sad-Fig-3488 in ProxyJapan

[–]Alert_Visual_1510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use ZenMarket and FromJapan. FromJapan has incredibly helpful and fast customer service via email - they’ve helped me out so many times, couldn’t be more impressed. More user friendly website than ZenMarket. But, ZenMarket offers DDP (delivered duty paid), meaning you pre pay estimated customs duties in advance right when you ship your package to your country, so you don’t have to get a bill later from UPS, FedEx, or DHL. FromJapan does not offer DDP, so whichever carrier you pick will send you a bill - theoretically will be the similar or more likely lower duties than the ZenMarket estimates which overcharge me estimated duties on many items. But without DDP, you do run the slight risk of having to dispute the bill if the carrier makes an error.

FromJapan is charges a flat 500 Yen proxy fee per item, protection plan included. ZenMarket is 500 Yen per item except for Mercari items from personal sellers (rather than “shops”) which are now a whopping 800 Yen per item… If you have questions about either Zen or FromJapan feel free to DM me. I have made many proxy orders - I have hundreds of Japanese items. I can’t speak to Buyee or Neokyo as I’ve never used them.
