CR GitS:SAC Ghost Version H2 through FJ Purchase

[mandoman]

I recently purchased a CR GitS:SAC Ghost Version (H2) on YJA using FJ for a grand total of 43871 Yen. I've been wanting one for a while and finally decided to pull the trigger. The seller isn't bothering to post pictures anymore so it was really sight unseen. I guess they're selling well. Overall the pachinko is really in "like new" condition. It's very clean inside and out. There are no claw marks on the wood except for a small screw hole in each corner. The cell and frame serial numbers match. There's no funky smell whatsoever. The only shipping damage was the top right glass nylon catch was broken (repaired with superglue). The seller did a good job packing. FJ wrapped the seller's box in large bubble wrap, then wrapped that using two flat boxes. I'm very happy with this machine so this will be it for a little while.

Cool beans have lots of fun with it.

Its a deal, Mandoman.

Did you go with Fedex or EMS shipping?

[mandoman]

I had it shipped FedEx. It took four days for me to get it once it left FJ. Also, there were no duty/customs fees.

What's FJ?

[Drunkenclam]

From Japan
Bidding with FromJapan

[monkeyboy]

Ahhh not heard of them, it's been a while since I've bought direct from Japan. Last time I went through Juno. I don't even know if he's still in business.

[Drunkenclam]

Yes Juno is still in business. He got me some card reader units last month and assisted me last weekend with an online shop that only took Japanese bank transfers as payment. Reason for using FJ is the excellent rates they have with FedEx on oversized items that the normal post office can't ship.

[monkeyboy]

Yeah I always remember it was sometimes impossible to get a full machine shipped in one box. I may have to give FJ a try.

[monkeyboy]

So I used the shipping calculator on FJ using FedEx and it came to 59,469 yen. What am I doing wrong? I used the same weight and size as listed above.

Edit: I'm an idiot, entered Kg not Ib's. So ship price now dropped to 18,584.

This could be dangerous looks like I can get a full machine for $350 shipped.

[Drunkenclam]

Yes. It's Very Dangerous Indeed
