Thanks guys!!! Lotto has hit an all time here as well. Might as well continue with this luck lol.
I didnt even know that Mandarake had a promo.
Anyway, hopefully HLJ sends Freedom soon. I can't wait!

Congrat for the Red Frame MB! I am curious.How does it work. You just have to place your product in your shopping cart ?
Another question. Does Mandarake undervalue parcel ?

CDJapan updated my Freedom shipping options to FedEx or DHL.
The cheapest option was FedEx for $92.

CDJapan updated my Freedom shipping options to FedEx or DHL. The cheapest option was FedEx for $92. (T_T ) So what is your total price now? This is actually one reason I don't like CDJapan as I had a similar experience years ago. Due to their error I got a coupon for 5000 yen. I used that coupon to preorder another item, with SAL shipping so the price was pretty good.. Then when it was available, CDJapan said they must "upgrade" my shipping and charged me a lot in total. I always suspect it was because I redeemed that 5000 yen coupon.

Luckily Amiami and Dejapan are still holding my items. I'm ok waiting for lower shipping rates. But it hurts seeing everyone getting all the new stuff ðŸ˜

There are delays to EMS services now. My item from CDJ has been sitting in Japan post since 9 August and no movement since then. We just need to be more patient or pay much higher shipping fees for DHL/Fedex.

Yeah the EMS issue hit me hard when Bandai postponed a lot of their stuff from February & March to May. All of a sudden I have 3-4 payment requests & all of them for DHL. XD CDJapan updated my Freedom shipping options to FedEx or DHL. The cheapest option was FedEx for $92. (T_T ) So what is your total price now? This is actually one reason I don't like CDJapan as I had a similar experience years ago. Due to their error I got a coupon for 5000 yen. I used that coupon to preorder another item, with SAL shipping so the price was pretty good.. Then when it was available, CDJapan said they must "upgrade" my shipping and charged me a lot in total. I always suspect it was because I redeemed that 5000 yen coupon.  I think I paid almost $40 for EMS when the Freedom first showed up for preorder & after it came in stock & I chose FedEx they deducted the remaining $50 from my credit card. They should have made a deal with DHL & FedEx these past few months because people who like their point system are getting screwed over with these shipping fees. I sent the Freedom to a US storage because shipping directly to my country would have cost 20000 yen & there's no way I'm paying that. XD

XD wow, I remember the Freedom concept 2 sold out very fast at cdjapan that I couldn't even preorder it. Its too bad that their discounted shipping rate did not offer as much discount as some of the other stores like HLJ. I have many points that I ended up expiring due to all these suspensions. But cdjapan does package their items very well. but maybe too well that it just from the $60 bracket to the $90 pricing bracket. T_T

Also, for Fedex. once they resume their FedEx Economy service it will be more closer to EMS pricing.... . no update on when they will resume either.

Bluefin also has them last time I checked. They also have the GFFMC Green Zaki II. Check on them every now and then for Metal Builds. Save yourself some DHL shipping, if they happen to have something you want in stock.
