Thanks - how much is shipping? And there is custom fee right?

Japan Post got some restrictions on em, so only shipping to Canadian address (right now) is DHL, which generally the most expensive shipping
if you don't like DHL, may make or break this

BUT if you got a US address to ship to, they are allowing EMS shipping to the US

It's a bit of a rigamarole, but I figured some people might say it's worth it to get these coveted kits

Don't do it. Shipping by DHL isn't worth it for lower-value items.

I Mandarake'd myself $50 of toys for xmas. DHL shipping came out to $75 for my 12"^3 box, then DHL charged me an extra $20 processing fee for my $5 import duty.

DHL shipping is never ever worth it unless you're importing a very high value item. Wait until SAL or EMS is available again or you'll get ripped off.

Should mention, I agree with all the above, DHL is the worst
I personally (until JPN Post allows Mandy to EMS to Canada again) send items to my US address, which they currently allow EMS shipping to

Mandarake almost everything is - by & large it's a secondhand chain, but they hold their items to a much higher standard

Amazon Japan always uses DHL for my MP figures, shipping is dirt cheap and lightning fast (2-3 days). Same when I buy Lepin bricks on Aliexpress.

All PE kits (from Wednesday's post) are gone now

$263 to ship a combiner set and 3 MP's via DHL. And that's with the yen down - a year ago, this would have converted to $300.
