Hirondelle Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 (edited) Hello SF,After getting approval from the top...I go by Bryars/Bossadai/Hirondelle/Chrom. Long story short, I live in Japan, and am planning on going to this Comiket Special 6 where the Fire Emblem 25th Anniversary Merchandise will be sold.At first I was going to just buy stuff for myself, but figured I would offer to buy/ship anything for the people who don't have access to this event (i.e. everyone outside of Japan, lol).So, I've set up my own PayPal account, and am ready to receive $$$ from people who want me to get them any of the items. However...SOME DISCLAIMERS:- I can't guarantee that all of these items will be available when I get there. I have no idea how popular this one booth will be!- I can't guarantee that the FE vendor will let me buy a bunch of their products in bulk. I'm as much of a believer in capitalism as the next guy, but there may be some ridiculous rule of "one item per person" or something that I won't be aware of until I get there. In that case, the priority will go to yours truly, then as a first-come-first-serve basis.- Your items are being shipped to you from literally the other side of the planet, so please be patient if you don't get it the next day...or week...or even month, God forbid!I predict the actual shipping price for each package will be quite low, since I'm working out of a military base, and their rates are low in general. So, don't worry about sending money for shipping. I got ya covered.Additionally, if this sounds like some kind of sketchy attempt to steal money from a bunch of global FE fans, please realize that my intentions are absolutely pure. I have a well-paying career already, and getting an average of 2000 yen from several people isn't going to make me rich beyond my wildest dreams.So, that's it. The process is very easy - you just need a (free) PayPal account. Just post here which items you want and the total in Yen so I know how much to bring with me, I'll PM you my email address, you PM me your name/shipping address, and then send me the USD equivalent via PayPal, and I'll take care of the rest (And, it's easy to convert currencies. For example, just type "2000 JPY to USD" into Google, and you'll get the corresponding amount).Of course if you send me money, and your item isn't in stock, or if there's some other outlying reason for you wanting your money back for whatever reason, I'll immediately send it back, no problem.Alright! Who wants some cool FE stuff?ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: I've found that listed shirt sizes here in Japan tend to be smaller than their American counterparts (I have no knowledge on other countries' sizes). So, if you order one, be aware that it may be smaller than you expect it to be! I can't confirm the actual size until the day of the event, unfortunately.

Fruity Insanity Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 That Lucina iPhone 6 phone case is extremely tempting (even if I don't have an iPhone, lol), but 4000 yen is a bit much for a phone case. Decisions, decisions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) I'd like the poster set (1000) and staff book(2000). 3000 yen, that would be like $24.26 at current conversion, right? Thanks for doing this~ Edited March 12, 2015 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianponte Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hey there! Would I be able to pay you for 2 soundtrack CDs if they allow it? I collect game soundtracks, but my Fire Emblem collection is particularly special to me. If they let you get multiple, I'd like to get one extra to keep sealed. If they don't, then you can just send one and the excess funds back. So it'd be: Anniversary CD 2,000円 (x2) Total: 4,000円 Also, I know you said don't worry about shipping, but if a little extra would help to make sure it's well protected so the jewel cases aren't damaged on arrival, let me know and I'll throw in a bit more.

Jedi Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I'm not sure if I'll be able to ask for stuff and purchase.. I'm getting a hefty loan out so I could use my extra money.. Choices choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of this comes up to 6000 yen. I'm so grateful for this chance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Falchion Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) I'd like the soundtrack and poster set if at all possible, so that's 3000 yen or around $24.67. Thank you so much for doing this, you are awesome! :) Edited March 12, 2015 by The Legendary Falchion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should add another disclaimer. PayPal fees will apply and they will get like a dollar or so taken if that scenario happens and you refund them. So as much as I am tempted by this thread and the wonderful thing you're doing, I think there will be a limit since this *IS* official stuff. 僕には入らないですけど,FEファンたちのため,そんなことをしてくれてありがとうございます。Hirondelleさんは親切な人ですよね。 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the best way is to get some third parties or random friends or convention goers to help out. But hey IS if you don't want us to buy your stuff then it's your loss.

Astromime Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Thanks mate, this is really cool of you. I'd like the poster set (1000), the staff book(2000), gba fire emblem badge set (3000) and the shirt(M)(3000). Total: 9000 yen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andalukia Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 (edited) Helloooo I've literally just created this account just to inquire for 1) poster set and 2)soundtrack from Comiket! I really really appreciate you for doing this and please let me know if you could! I will send the money promptly once you let me know :)) Thanks! Edit: Ehem, sorry I forgot to include the total, which should be 3000 yen. (2000 for soundtrack and 1000 for poster set) Edited March 12, 2015 by andalukia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is another reason why I'm offering to ship for free. Of course they will lose a bit of money if complications occur and I can't get their items. In general I hope everyone acknowledges the "risks" in this whole procedure...but at the end of the day, I won't stop reimbursing you until you're satisfied. That's the promise I make to all y'all, and the risk I'M willing to take, because I like the FE community, and y'all deserve a chance and getting this kind of stuff! Also I have no idea what you're saying. I speak Arabic, not Japanese haha And the fact that seeing someone buy so much of the same product will cause tons of suspicions. Maybe the best way is to get some third parties or random friends or convention goers to help out. But hey IS if you don't want us to buy your stuff then it's your loss.I'm aware, and everyone sending me money should be aware of this as well, since this is one of my original disclaimers. I'm trying to get people to come with me, don't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightShade Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hello! This is such a nice thing to do for fellow Fire Emblem fans, thanks so much! I would like: - Henry badge (500 yen) - IPhone 5s case (4000 yen) - Coffee cup (I don't know whether the two designs are on separate cups, but if so, I want the one with the Mark of Grima on it) (1500 yen) Total: 6000 yen Thanks again!

Hirondelle Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 - Coffee cup (I don't know whether the two designs are on separate cups, but if so, I want the one with the Mark of Grima on it) (1500 yen) Apparently, there's only one type of tumbler - one that has both designs on it. I'm assuming this isn't a dealbreaker for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
