Pardon my incredulity, but how? The shipping isn't displayed when you check out. If you were just ordering a ¥2000-ish figure then there would have been a ¥500 fee on top of that. But that's still well short of ~$50US.

As for shipping rates, a single figure (to the U.S. at least) with DHL usually runs right about the same as SAL shipping, at least in my experience. It goes up exponentially after that, though. I usually stick to SAL if I'm ordering two or more figures or books, since book weight will kill with DHL.
