    I personally find Amazon Japan the best (and it comes with bonus content), but you need access to a Japanese address to use it. Otherwise I would also highly recommend HLJ. The main downside I find with HLJ is that their search engine is poor, you're better off actually Googling their inventory!

    spot on for their search, I used to remember they had a notify me when item becomes available, then it got taken off.

    They are not my first choice as they are always late in announcing their release and sometimes some of these hot items don't even get published on their main page. The one main issue I have is they do not have a page on Newest or pre-order items in each sub category making it so hard sometimes.

    I use them all the time as well, since boycotting Robotkingdom. They are in Hong Kong like Robotkingdom, and are usually only within a couple dollars of RK's prices (because they have smaller stock and turnover).

    The drawback is that you have to wait for a paypal invoice from them within a day or two after you place your order, but the good thing is that they have been known to limit order quantities to prevent scalpers from cleaning them out of high-demand items.

    yup ehobby is great, ordered stuffed from them. I wished the hk stores were more the same prices as Japanese online stores, I would have picked them without any hesitation.

    I've got mine on order with ehobby, just curious, why are you boycotting RK?

    poor service in everything. their postage is also not as cheap as it used to be - which was the one thing they had going for them before.

    Ah ok. The last think I got from RK was MP-13.

    Strange, I find RK's service one of the best from retailers I've used. I always email and get responses from Daniel very quickly. When my new MP-9B knees broke, they sent me replacement joints with no problems. When I had other QC issues like minor paint app issues that I could mostly live with, I still told them and they gave me credit back straight away (eg. 5%-10% credit back).

    Their shipping costs are a little higher, but I'm OK with that since they protect their items for shipping so well, and they always have the exclusive coins and accessories.
