Just bought this and it works out to be $153 delivered. I think its one of the cheapest deals for mp soundwave right now. And if you're like me regret that you missed out on the toysrus version but dont really care for the other cassettes anyway, this would be the next best deal.
Email communications have been great so far. We'll see what happens when i get it.
Not really a choice if you need to buy Tamashii Web toys by Bandai if Anime Export is sold out.
Communications are mixed bag, some are nice some are lazy and just say can't be changed in your order.
They are technically slower in packing and shipping compared to Amiami or HLJ or hobbysearch.
Advantages, allow you to pay later, allow you to SAL.
Never had to communicate with them... yet! They pack slow but their items are worth it.
Got the 64 gb vita memory card from them!
Also got a back up Slim ps3 from them.
They provide a variety of shipping options. I think they also have the option to send by boat.
The boat option must be a big order and you not in a rush as I am very unsure how long it will take using this.Quote:

They arent bad. In fact they would be my main store because they do stock unlike most other sites. However they do punish people from time to time when you pre-order and then released at lower prices on special, I find that very lame as you are punishing your loyal support.Quote:

This is valid only before the official release of the product."
I think that is pretty good. If you preorder in yen, your preorder price will not go up but if it goes down and you wish to pay it while it is lower they will let you do it. If it goes back up, you missed you chance but you still have the original preorder price as a safety net.
Mind you, this is what i read and i have had no experience in trying to lower their price.
I can tell you now, most of the time the pre-order price it is what it is, nobody really checks it, and by the time is up to pay up is basically it.Quote:

This is primary why I buy from them as they do price their items reasonably low, but have occasional inflated price rise for pre-order.
My Soundwave arrived today after 6 days. Well packaged with newspaper and bubblewrap in a cardboard box. Overall they've been excellent.
For anyone that has dealt with these guys for quite a while... regarding the pay later option, is your order guaranteed/fully confirmed? As i dont want to be screwed over due to not paying now then later...
Thanks!
As the release date is closer You should get an email to pay now. Note, I normally look at the yen to Aust dollar and is best on Wednesday to pay your item.Quote:

Thanks for reply!
Yuppers, did read the FAQ, but just wanted to double check, especially when Ultra Magnus is at a decent price :)
At checkout, is there an option to choose a different currency? :confused:
My payment screen (not using Paypal) automatically selects Euro.
You select your currency at the top of the screen before you add things to your cart.Quote:

They do seem to be hitting and missing with some of their pricing - two MP13 Soundwaves with a 12000 Yen difference between them. Also some Figuarts figs my friend was after are 1.8x the price on BBTS.Quote:

Okay when pre order, they are known to be inflating their prices quickly on demand.
I have used their discount power of 10dp which I only gotten 2% off.
This 10 dp is about a grand of stuff I bought, I found the discount pretty non existent.
For example, I buy stuff from hobby search , amiami, and cd japan, just three items from each store not costing me over a grand and I got much bigger discounts. Of course is better than none I suppose.
Ny is not a great place to get restock items as they price hike a lot. Bumble bee from 4700 goes to 7,000 easily when released. Is kind of sad.
They don't used to be like this, but they currently do this for every masterpiece.
You should check out NY when they put out Pre-Orders for in-demand items - eg. Macross - see the price go up by 100 - 300%.Quote:

I did, I am a Macross collector and so is Gundam, sadly Tamashii web items are limited to NY and Anime Export which isn't much better.Quote:

I have a heap of pre-orders with NY but just received my first order today - MP Exhaust and Star Saber. I'm extremely happy with how they'very packed it, plenty of bubble wrap and cardboard. Highly recommend this seller.:)
two sides of it, my mp magnus was found seal broken, toy box slightly dented.
I am not a box collector but I can see some people would be fuming if this happened to them.
I like them for pre-order, but their shipping for Tracks for once stopped me from ordering from them.
So impressed with these guy. My exhaust came with no paper work. Let NY know, they contacted TT on my behalf then ems shipped me the paper work! Best online service ever! :D
have to check mine.Quote:

My Mp magnus had a huge hole in the box.
They refused to help, didnt even reply me after they sent their first response to me.
Admittedly im supposed to sign a damaged goods form but girl at work took delivery. I've ordered numerous times from them and a discount or some store credit would have been nice.
Will not order from them again.
If you do not care about the box, you can go cheapest with Eco.Quote:

I have been using eco for most of my purchase to my locker and have 0 issues. Other than small dent to my Magnus mp box. I get what I paid for.
I am not a box collector so, I don't care too much about being MISB.
I would not recommend them if you are after MISB.
They are cheap for what they are, so I was prepared for such stuff. For me, as long as nothing is broken, I am happy to order from them.Quote:

no different from mine. I only suggest if you need Mint box, buy from another company. HLJ or others will be better. $165 and under for Magnus delivered, can't complain for me.Quote:

Although I managed to reason myself out as stating I don't mind a store credit, be careful when you purchase.
The policy has changed, they used to cancel items with no issues.
Again not that they are bad, just be careful
I dont see their big issue with cancellations. At the price they do pre-orders for, they'll sell the extra stock within days. Things like that would hurt their business more than anything. That and crappy customer service.
Is not for me to debate though I do support cancelations within reason as I never do cancel that frequently at all .Quote:

Now I am trying to ask them to give the store credit to a pre ordered item I ordered. Hopefully they accept that.
My two G2 Masterpiece Bumblebees arrived safe and sound. Another great transaction with NY:)
Can anyone explain to me why when I choose to pay by credit card that the total is converted to EURO when you buy in YEN?
Not only that the total is not even right in EURO. It's more then what it is suppose to be. 31390 YEN is NOT 232 EURO but 227 EURO.
I find this really stupid and of course their really no help when asking.
Not sure why your browser is defaulted to Euros, but at the top of the screen there's a maroon bar that says "LANGUAGE - CURRENCY", for you to set each value respectively.Quote:

I always pay using PayPal. When you make the payment it specifies it's in Yen.Quote:

Will be preordering something else within the next week (unless I get ripped off by another site, which has further pushed me towards paypal only in the future).
