I actually have a desktop app where you can convert up to 4 types of currency. :3 I have the US dollar, Japanese Yen, Korean Won, and the Chinese Yuan because I like KPOP and I frequent Taobao~ Or I just use this site lol http://www.xe.com/ Quote
Forythos Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I just use google, though in the case of Japanese Yen, I can pretty much make the conversion in my head by now since I've been doing a bit too much importing in the past two years lol. Quote
moonrabbit Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Aw lucky~ There's too much math involved so I just depend on calculators. XD Horray for them! Quote
jaxter0987 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I just divide the Yen amount by a hundred to get an estimate in Dollars and that estimate is generally enough for my purposes. I know currency rates among other things are constantly changing but rarely do I ever need the exact price and when I do, google is there. Quote

Flutterz Posted May 30, 2014 Posted May 30, 2014 I suppose it figures you'd have that one, considering your avatar. That said, there's already a topic for this: https://forums.fuwanovel.net/index.php?/topic/1491-figure-collector/ Quote

I'll admit that the latter option would be more entertaining. It was obviously the latter. Flutterz is just confused. I want to ask, I've never been too into normal figures but I've always liked nendoroids. What are some good websites with cheap prices to buy nendoroids? I don't really know much about this stuff so i'd appreciate help. Whatever the place is has to be able to ship to Europe. Quote
Forythos Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 Mandarake.co.jp is pretty much the cheapest I know and they are very reliable, I've ordered a lot of stuff from them.(Not just figures.) Even though it has an english storefront, you have to search using kanji/kana for best results. You can also find some pretty rare stuff if you check regularly. Amiami.com is also pretty good, they have both new figures for preorder and a preowned section with a very large selection and prices that are usualy cheaper than everywhere else except Mandarake.

Wow that site has some really great prices compared to a lot of others I've seen. I might order from them depending on the shipping costs. I heard of amiami before and I've checked their catalog and I like it but their shipping fees are usually pretty high so I never really got into it. Then again I didn't check shipping fees for nendoroids so I should now. Regardless, thanks a bunch~ Do I have to convert my money to japanese yen or can i just use any currency (in this case euro) and they'll convert it themselves? Quote
Forythos Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 From my experience, I've never had to convert currency myself, whether paying by Paypal or credit card. For shipping the thing that can drive up costs is that past a certain box size or weight, the cheapest shipping method (SAL) becomes unavailable, and EMS tends to be much more expensive. (Though a lot faster also.) I've had some heart-attack inducing surpises when ordering artbooks due to the weight. The Nendoroids I've bought have all qualified for SAL shipping IIRC, but I never tried ordering more than one at a time. I know Rin Natsume's Nendo cost me 1090 Yen in shipping using registered SAL from Amiami. (Though prices have gone up a bit since then.) Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 31, 2014 Posted May 31, 2014 How much would you say a nendoroid weighs on average? Just so i can check it up on their table http://www.mandarake.co.jp/en/information/ship.html I don't think I'll order more than 1 at a time either so I don't need to be too worried about being able to qualify for SAL shipping. And since they're small boxes too they should be good. How much cheaper would SAL be in comparison to EMS? Sorry i'm still a noob at this and want to know everything~ Quote
