Japan's No.1 figure store is now accepting international orders! Some of their pre-order prices rival 'toy-wholesaler.jp' prices without the need to buy in bulk.

Apparently exclusives will also be available on the site.

The only shipping method so far will be EMS, but the discounts that Amiami offers should help to offset that.

Amiami English Site (http://www.amiami.com/shop?set=english&http://www.amiami.com/shop/?vgform=SimpleForm&tid=12493ee37eb&template=index.html)

It will be interesting to see what this does to shops like HLJ.com etc who charge at retail prices... :confused:

-----------------------------------------

Here's MP-8 Grimlock (http://www.amiami.com/shop/?set=english&vgForm=ProductInfo&sku=TOY-RBT-0514&template=default/product/e_display.html) for 10633¥/Au$126.57

Alot of the Transformers: Revenge movie stuff is heavily discounted too.

-------------------------------------------

Here's the DX Chogokin Macross Frontier: Macross Quarter (http://www.amiami.com/shop/?set=english&vgForm=ProductInfo&sku=TOY-RBT-0870&template=default/product/e_display.html) for 14480¥/Au$172.44 ( Saves me $70 :D )

A search for the Macross Frontier DX Chogokin Macross Frontier VF-25 Valks will show alot of them for about 25% off too.

I think something changed... :o

I just ordered with no problems.

Try this direct link:

http://www.amiami.com/shop?set=english&http://www.amiami.com/shop/?vgform=SimpleForm&tid=12493ee37eb&template=index.html

And remember to make sure you don't double order if you have stuff in their cart system.

Edited first post.

This is great news! The only problem with AmiAmi is they very quickly go out of stock (on their JP site anyway). Hope they're ready to deal with all the new orders!

I don't actualy have one, I wonder what the shipping would be? All the stuff I really want is not as heavily discounted. But that is probably the stuff I should get.

I'm not sure the savings work out to be that great on small stuff like Figma unless your ordering a few items at a time.

what does it mean?

It means overdue credit cards.

It's the Japanese PVC and statue section, for anime girls. Click and you'll see for yourself, dare you not to buy something.

Amiami have partly implimented SAL as an option now.

You have to leave a comment in your order description requesting it tho.


* Now we start to accept "SAL small packet registered" on trial to meet many customers' requests.
Though we will add about 700 yen as the registered fee and our handling charge to the normal SAL shipping rate, the shipping cost of the items less or equal 2kg must be lower.

If you wish SAL Registered shipping, please write "Request for SAL Registered shipping if possible" above.
Remember, "SAL Registered" may be more reliable than normal SAL(not registered), but not so much as "EMS" is.
And SAL shipping takes more days to be delivered.

Interesting...

I don't think it matter for the big stuff, but I wonder if it makes smaller things like single action figures, Henkeis etc worthwhile?

A bit concerned about the 700yen handling fee, since that's already on its way to the shipping cost for small items.
