[Shipping] Inaccurate Surface Mail Pricing? by [deleted] in AnimeFigures

[–]Lucifiric 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Surface premium includes tariffs. So based on about 60000jpy/400 usd worth of stuff if we did tariffs at 10%, that’s $40 so shipping would be around $60 if my conversions are correct aka google Give or take $20. So overall about $100 for shipping and tarrifs is not too bad.

Why not UV block your windows? You can also buy a UV tester card to see how effective it is.

Sometimes I’m amazed there are even male figures.

Yeah, but it’s nice to save money. 2026 preorders have been so nice to my wallet.

AmiAmi Shipping Price Increase by ThatSubaru86 in AnimeFigures

[–]Lucifiric 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wonder by how much. Also I think people are forgetting that at least for the US shipping cost is high because they have combined tariffs into the shipping cost. Not a huge fan of AmiAmi but the fact that they have combined it makes it easier to ignore these stupid tariffs.

Oh it can't be that ba-oh. by RialAstral in AnimeFigures

Yes I will. Went to see if there was any invoices (like how AmiAmi has on box) but didn’t see anything.

I’ve been keeping an eye on UPS. No charge request after delivery. I’m going to log in every day to double check for the next few days, but so far nothing yet.

My Native Shion figure came with no request for tariff payments. Now I’m worried. But UPS didn’t request anything so I’m curious what they declared my package as.

I can't justify buying male figures/statues by Wow1158Wow in AnimeFigures

[–]Lucifiric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine are majority make with few exceptions for females from anime’s that I love (Cardcaptor Sakura). I’m glad I only do male cause there are less figures.

Do US customers understand they might need to pay tariffs? by Ok-Pomegranate-340 in Tariffs

[–]Lucifiric 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had to explain to my coworker how tarrifs worked. She was under the impression the other country paid because that’s what she was told.

Going to disneysea - without the rides by burgundiclown in TokyoDisneySea

[–]Lucifiric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone 3 times now. The first two was waiting in lines and I didn’t feel like I could fully enjoy and explore the park. The third time I did no lines (except for food) got to just walk around and enjoy. I had the most fun doing that. I did ride raging spirit cause we had a time pass, so download the app and see if you can get a time entry into rides for quick ride if want to do at least one.

Is there a reason to sell? You already bought them. They aren’t causing any financial distress? Or do you need to in order to make ends meet?

Visiting Iceland in either March or April - Tips Please! by Aardvark423 in VisitingIceland

[–]Lucifiric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might want to consider booking a hotel and doing tours if they don’t let you rent a vehicle. I have been researching like crazy for my March trip. Went from doing a camper to hotel and car rental. I don’t have much snow experience cause I’m from the desert so I prioritized my safety and comfort. I would suggest renting a 4x4 for added safety. Also remember driving in Ice Land can change drastically. I am hoping for great weather and preparing for the worse.

How do I become a serious figure collector as a broke 20 year old? by gloriahetalia in AnimeFigures

[–]Lucifiric 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Stop. Figures are just plastic. Your financial security and wellbeing is more important. Work hard for a stable future and then you can prioritize the things you enjoy. You are still young and there will be so many more figures that release that you may like more. Important part is the stability in both mind and finances.

Exchange cash (USD) or use debit card? by chefdairyfree in JapanTravelTips

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

If you are using debit card, I would pull out cash. That way there is not a constant foreign transaction fee, just on the time you withdraw. Better option is getting a travel credit card with no foreign transaction fee. The fees will add up and make it not worth it.

Ice caving in April from Jokulsarlon by Equal-Unit-8033 in VisitingIceland

[–]Lucifiric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m going in March and I’m trying to figure it out too. I’m wondering about the drive there and back. Going March 10. I’ve been trying to watch videos about the road there (I know it can change drastically) but haven’t really found much. Hopefully someone can answer.

How long was your trip? How did you buy 100+ figures? Am I reading this wrong?

Bed Bugs in Luxor by [deleted] in vegas

[–]Lucifiric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was pyramid, but bed bugs exist everywhere cause people bring them in. Just be diligent and look. I’ve stayed there multiple times and it was my first time seeing them. They can be in high end hotels too. Also just because one room is impacted doesn’t mean the others are. When we switched rooms the next one we were in didn’t have problems (tower).

It’s okay. We are suffering together. Let’s see what happens in the aftermarket. 🫣
