Also, is it possible to get a package out of Japan without a gaping hole punched in the side of it?


This has happened with pretty much every international order I've ever made.

That's.....not good. My boxes rarely have holes that big. Sometimes there's a minor tear or a dent.

When your hauls get up in the 8+ piece range, the shipping works out to be cheaper than that, anyway. Like the last haul I posted in this thread's shipping was 6380 Y. Which for eight items works out to less than $8 an item. You can't tell me that someone would have charged less shipping per item had I bought it in the US somewhere.

It only really SEEMS expensive because you're comparing it to bargain basement, takes three weeks to arrive and looks like it got kicked down a flight of stairs stuff. The only comparable US shipping that is that cheap is local Priority and First Class, which is only <13oz. anyway.

Yeah, I don't really understand it either. I mean, if it's just a few items, yeah, EMS inflates a lot, but the more you order(up to a certain point) it pads out. Though, my orders usually become absurdly big leading to $80-100+ shipping fees. Bleh.
