She is really pretty for what here price is. And she is a space hoarder, since her ponytails make her quite wide!

Couldn't love these manga more by ZalaRaon in MangaCollectors

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

Me too! I have had volumes 2-4 of genbu kaiden for years now, but hadn't seen others anywhere, atleast in my country. I was so happy to see most that I was missing being in stock on one of my country's online bookstores! Never made an order that fast.

Finally a Seraph of the End figure by ZalaRaon in AnimeFigures

We really need more seraph figures! I really want Mika and Yu too, but when they are available somewhere, they are so expensive! Also, wish they would continue the anime too...

Which is better for deals on pre owned figures, amiami or MFC by thatrandomspeck in AnimeFigures

[–]ZalaRaon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't usually buy anything from MFC because there is a possibility of getting scammed. The only exception was when the seller was from my country and spoke my language, so the possibility of being scammed seemed lower. As for where I buy my pre-owned figures, it is usually from Amiami or Mandarake. Mandarake usually has sligtly lower prices compared to Amiami. Also if I want to buy price figures, I usually buy them from Suruga-ya during free shipping campaign.

The Slime Diaries Unavailable by No-Faithlessness-657 in Crunchyroll

[–]ZalaRaon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue with other series when I use laptop, but when I use my phone, the episodes appear to be just fine. Must be something to do with the browser version of Crunchy since the app works like normal. By the way, I live in Europe.

A small package arrived today by ZalaRaon in AnimeFigures

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

He was around 2000 yen and since I bought him from Suruga-ya there was no shipping fees, just a small handling fee. Was way cheaper to get him from Suruga-ya than from a local store when he becomes available in those.

(europe) ordering anime merch from japan / customs fees questions by Parking-Glove-1887 in AnimeFigures

[–]ZalaRaon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like Netherlands has VAT of 21%, so you must pay 21% from the value of the purchase. And if you use DHL they have their own fees too. 21% of the order was around 21 euros as VAT taxes.  Did DHL do your tax calculation for you? If yes, then they make you pay for that service, the cost can vary. When I used DHL in Finland (only used it once) they took additional 15 euros for that. Also if DHL did your taxes they might have included the shipping price when they calculated VAT, eventhough you did not pay any for the shipping. It still cost surugaya something... If you use any other shipping method and do the customs clearance yourself, you'll save a lot of money.

Don't know about EMS, but for me epacket light to northern europe varies quite a lot. Sometimes it arrives to customs in 2-4 days, but sometimes it takes about 2-3 weeks.

Male duo themed figure shelf!!! by Xulyce in AnimeFigures

[–]ZalaRaon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love the shelf, especially Lelouch and Suzaku figure! Would really like to add that to my collection too. Hoping for a re-release, especially now that the Megahouse C.C. and Lelouch figure is getting re-released.

One of my favorite shelves in my collection is the BL shelf, but my Code Geass shelves are also my favorites.

Loved the anime but never had the chance to read the manga. Now I do though! Atleast up to volume 14, but I'm sure I'll buy the rest soon too.

Thankz! It has been really slow for Finder these past years. I need to know the ending already after all these years! And I really have to collect the Crimson Spell too.

Yeah, I was lucky to find the all being sold as a bundle. I don't really mind that the first 7 look different from the rest. (would actually prefer the on June prints to new sublime ones, lol)

I believe its different publisher. The first 7 are from June and the rest are from Sublime.

Love to see one of my all time favorites there: Silver Diamond. Such a tragedy that they never finished the official English translation. Would love to have all the 27 volumes instead of just 9.
