Exactly the same for me...yikes. Not a great start to my day. ( View formatted comment » )

Wow, that's crazy. I've never had that happen! Sometimes I get charged and sometimes I don't get charged. Actually, anytime it goes through USPS and into Canada Post, I don't get charged any customs at all; just PST and GST depending on whether they think the figure originated in Japan or the States. There exists different rules, especially according to NAFTA, but they don't seem to follow the strict guidelines. Long story short, I asked a Canadian customs agent how they decide when and what to charge and she serious... ( View formatted comment » )

R34 GT-R V-Spec Nur is my fav, I've got a little model of a blue one! And the new GT-R is finally in America and it just kills everything else. It eats Porsches for lunch. ( View formatted comment » )

That's terrible. And they are both listed as Dragonball Z figures!! I'm sure even if you order the "real" looking one you will get the fake. It's just a stock photo, and both descriptions are exactly the same...never once stating that it is official. The real killer is that both prices are the same and less than 1/4 the price for a real one! ( View formatted comment » )

It's fairly normal for an excellent teacher who is in demand. When in LA, my teachers charged 150-200. It depends on the teacher and the city. In a small town like where I am it is more difficult to charge that much. My rates vary incredibly, from FREE to 100 dollars an hour; but if I was in a bigger city I would charge 150.

I think Ogura Yuko and Sasaki Nozomi are perfect, flawless, timeless, breathtaking beauties...so I suppose you can guess what I prefer! It must be said, however, that for me a beautiful face is WAY more important (as evidenced by the aforementioned wonderful, captivating, eternal, dream-filled, absolutely pure faces of Yuko and Nozomi).

That screen must be HUGE to see all the tiny writing! I have nothing on my desktop, and my dock is hidden. I like to have a blank slate. ( View formatted comment » )

That's surprising! I suppose Wal-mart has a huge manga section, too? I should check them out more often! ( View formatted comment » )

Ouch. Well, if he manages to open a few eyes to different cultures, I suppose it is okay...even if it just means paying some money and slapping his name on something to get people to see it. ( View formatted comment » )

I don't live there anymore, but did you try every store in the Yaohan Centre, Aberdeen Centre and Parker Place in Richmond? Somebody should have it! ( View formatted comment » )

Thanks! Sounds good!! ( View formatted comment » )
