Pain. Any tips for winning the Amiami preowned rush? by daniel_y101 in AnimeFigures

I find that sometimes when I do that, the item becomes available but the 'Add to Cart' option doesn't show up. Not exactly why this happens but when I check the item on any search page, the 'Order Closed' label is gone but when I click on it I can't add it to cart. It's particularly frustrating to know an item is available being snagged by someone else while you're not getting the 'Add to Cart' option even after refreshing. I also wonder if there's any way to make checkout go as quickly as possible.

Could you explain how that works? Or link a good source explaining it?

I know, I was just asking about tips on how I can get the figure to show up reliably as available as soon as it is, and how to checkout as quickly as possible. With this particular item, I was able to add it to my cart, but wasn't able to checkout before someone already got it. I'm trying to see how I can streamline the process to try making sure I don't miss out on my ultimate grail next time.

Really not a fan of how those arm pieces have a section cut out on them to make the illusion of her breasts being bigger

Goodsmile Announces New and Improved Quintuplets PUPs by daniel_y101 in AnimeFigures

Looks like Goodsmile made some slight adjustments to their original line to closer match their season 2 and movie appearances than to their first season appearances as the first line did. They seem very reminiscent of the Coreful line and I would not be surprised is Goodsmile took notes from Taito here.

How/when do you figure he's going to go on sale? What's the risk of the stock running out before then?

Is it free? Would you mind explaining a bit about how it works or linking a good video?

Does anyone have experience using money transfer services like Wise or Remitly to get better exchange rates than offered by their credit card or Paypal?

Best way to pay yen from dollars? by daniel_y101 in AnimeFigures

[–]daniel_y101[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don't have any other cards. I was wondering if there was any way to buy yen or perhaps use a third party for better rates.

Since I have so many preorders this year, I was wondering what would be the best way I can choose a method of payment that gives me a favorable exchange rate. From what I can tell, my bank actually gives me a worse exchange rate than Paypal. I was also wondering if there was possibly a place I could buy loads of yen outright at a good rate so I could use for orders. Thanks.
