My purchase of yesterday was removed. Why? :odd:

Here it is again. I bought another 5 kg of Cashew nuts.

Speak to one of the staff members.
Openly asking here wont really get you a response.

Otherwise are you sure it was posted and not in draft or the wrong section.

I wasn't expecting an answer. The "Why?" was only to show my confusion. A new purchase in a "show off your latest purchase" is the right thread. Yes, I'm sure I posted it. If I forgot to post it would have been in the window where I wrote the post and I didn't click "delete draft".

The only thing I can think of is that they didn't think I bought the cashew nuts yesterday because of my conversation with the @TheCracker about a nut addiction. Or he wasn't pleased that I tagged him in this thread when I bought another 5 kg cashew nuts. :p

Yep mods, I really did buy that 5 kg of cashew nuts yesterday, as a matter of fact, I went to the store to get the nuts, which I ordered the day before because they were not in stock, in between my posts with TheCracker about my so called nut addiction (which I don't have). :)

All is good, moving on and enjoying my cashew nuts (I haven't even got one cashew nut out of the 5 kg supply I got yesterday).

...before you were charged 1000 JPY for the domestic shipping. :p

At least I was. After paying 1 JPY for a Kyosho 1/64 and thinking that I had got a bargain, it’s only after they contacted the seller and charged me the domestic shipping that I noticed I had to pay 800 JPY for the shipping. And it’s actually stated on the auction page before. That means I paid ~300(?) more than if I had bidded on another seller’s same item that was priced at around a few hundred yen.

Dumb me. :ouch:

Was 220 JPY for me, but I totally know what you mean. Quite a few of my purchases I've been thoroughly disappointed to see that I've paid more for the shipping (like, 1000 JPY+) than what I did for the item. One time I did, and it was literally just a slab of cardboard :boggled::irked:

...that’s only still a pack of beers. The prices I’ve seen on shipping for cheap goods from the U.K. makes my eyes water.

Did the cardboard arrive in the warehouse earlier though? If it did then it’s slightly justified, but I still think you’re charged waaaaay too much. My ¥1 1/64 arrived several days earlier than another 1/64 of a similar size, and the shipping of the latter was just around a quarter of the former, so I think it’s kinda justified. It’s still useless to have it arrive so early though, because I eventually left both the cars in the warehouse for several more days before having them shipped. :lol:

Is it eBay? I think these kinds of things happen more often there. I still remember being charged 10 Euros for shipping of an incomplete sheet of metal on eBay. It’s shipped from Austria, though, but when it arrived, the parcel was larger than I expected, and you’d have thought it has something larger inside instead.

Yeah, eBay. I was buying scale models that weight sod all and the shipping from U.K. to Asian was about 5 times the product cost. It turned out to be cheaper to ship from Australia of all places.

And don’t get me started on the dildos I ordered from Germany...

p.s. you should see the package I expect tomorrow....
 
One of these, a PowerA Xbox One wired controller for my computer. My rock candy X360 Controller I was using for pc play finally decided to stop working. It kept disconnecting and I got fed up with it. I'm probably going to buy an actual PC controller later on.

A decent 1/76 buy. Advertised as pre-owned with a mark on the back. A dampened finger and the mark came off completely. Result. Another to the Hong king collection.
 
Well, my parents got me a PS4 slim as a gift for my birthday/graduation gift. So, I bought this.
The PS4 was also bundled with "Spiderman".
