The Anime/Manga I Bought Today Was...

The discs are the same, I figured I could do with less space on the shelf but if the original sets are still available then I'm up for it (the original sets are Region B, well the newer stock is). The complete set has reversible art with each side based on memories or melodies.
Alright thanks.

I'm just sitting here watching my saved for later items slowly go out of stock... Makes it harder not to order everything right now!
Chobits and Dusk Maiden of Amnesia are both gone

Well, looks like stuff isn't getting shipped today but the fact none of the orders got cancelled gives me hope for tomorrow.

They should dispatch tomorrow, my card is getting charged with the right values so it looks like it'll actually progress like normal :!:
 
You are right, mine got shipped too!
This is the first time the word Spedito brings me such emotions.

To stay on topic:

I didn't order this today but it was on hold for a month or so and it's good to see it being processed.
 
I guess the next question (for me at least) is customs...

I looked through my old amazon uk orders and found 2 from rarewaves. 1 was under the limit and the other was some skylanders figures for £19 which I can't remember being hit by customs on that (although not sure if figures would be...)

Well it's a good thing I separated the orders then. Mine dispatched and I'm surprised they didn't combine the order into one package.

Yeah I'm wondering too... I guess you don't have the package anymore but on the customs declaration do they put the price we paid in euros on that specific locale of amazon, that price converted back in dollars, or the price at which they sell the item on the US amazon? The last one would be pretty bad (though unlikely).

How do you know they didn't? Is it supposed to show up in your orders panel? I've never ordered separately on the same day so I don't know if they tell you.
 
I had one email that looked like it was saying some of my orders had been combined. Although My Italian is non-existent and google translate doesn't do a brilliant job on it...

TBH even if worst case scenario is 20% of US Amazon sell price, I still got myself a bargain.

That's a good point. I got three separate emails at the very least. Shipping is handled by USPS but no tracker apparently.
 
Possible additional info:

I searched my inbox for other items sent via USPS. Guess who else uses them? Supermart_usa!

I've never had customs charges from supermart and I do have some supermart packaging to check - there was no declaration on there. There was an additional sticker for deutsche post although pretty sure it was royal mail who put it through the door.

Delivery time on this last USPS package was 10 days. Not definitive, but promising.

Yeah I have that same Deutsche Post sticker on my packaging from supermart_usa, there is a customs declaration on mine though.

As in it actually lists the price? On the deutsche post sticker or the main big sticker?

Yeah it lists the price, not on the Deutsche post sticker. It was US->BE and not US->UK though, for what it's worth.

Ah with thanks from the Belgian customs i guess :(

Is the amount 26,34 the actual amount ? Or is it the amount of the item + shipping ?

Actually i was away for a week hiking in the Eifel region in Germany and when i got back have three BPost slippers with custom charges. Two from The Right Stuf it seems. I'll pick them up tomorrow as BPost (got to hate that company) wasn't open on Monday due to National Holiday today. I'll check the packages and probably send a mail again to Right Stuf for some clarification, as it seems they shipped 2 orders made separately in one package. I've mailed them about this before but guess they forgot again. Weird webshop Right Stuf, sometimes great prices during sales, also better packaging than Amazon, but boy you have to get in contact with them a lot, at least i do, for things going wrong with orders. Kinda a love-hate relationship :)

Oops have gone a bit off-topic i guess :D
 
Currently Rightstuff USA have removed ALL their listings from amazon.it...

looks like they may have spotted their "pricing issue."

I got a few more orders in this morning on newly dropped items before all their listings were removed;
Devils and Realist
Taisho Baseball Girls
Unlimited Psychic Squad
Hakkenden 8 dogs of the east
Hakuoki S3
Phi-Brain S2 Collection 2
Clannad

Clannad was only £13.55 inc shipping...

I guess it's too late for anything to happen to the stuff that's already shipped, but I wonder what will happen to the stuff we have pending...
