Ok, I know we have discussed how the shipping bill is always a dreadful time when it arrives. In my case it was no different this morning. 18,250¥!!!!!! Yikes.... I will admit there were 7 auctions won, but most were individual trains, not like massive lots of junk or track, etc... I am baffled at how it can cost almost 1/3 of that cost for the actual item, but then shipping be triple. I used the FromJapan site as I have been and chose to let them pick the shipping method. Typically EMS is chosen, and it was in this case too. I love the speed that EMS shipping gets the items here, and that thy are insured, but it certainly does come at a cost.
So my question... What do you use? EMS, SAL, AirMail, etc... Are there other ways to save on shipping that I am missing? Do you typically combined shipping or ship auctions individually?
The bad thing is, I just found 1 more thing that was a must buy and then am bidding on another already... Grrrr...
