I have decided to order from Volks Japan site for most of our items, because when converted Yen to US Dollars, we can save a few dollars PER ITEM.
Example:
1 head = 1575 yen = $13.31 USD
In USA site, the same head is $17.
So… $3 per items, and if you have 5 things, the cost is $15 less, which is more than enough to cover the higher shipping cost. Plus, some items are instock (while sadly, some items are instock in USA site only). I will be making a small order from the USA site for the items not available in Japan site and I will be paying the shipping for those.
If anyone want to add/change somethings, please let me know and I would be ordering on Sunday 8/17 (to make sure I won’t miss the box). Volks Global site is really fast and items arrive within one week. 🙂
Let me know any concerns…. and hope it sound okay with you. 🙂
Some items are out-of-stock in both sites: 😦

Oh Wow… that’s fast!! 🙂 You are welcome!!

Yep very fast. 😀 The earrings have already been put to good use and I’ll be working on the head soon enough. Much easier than hunting ebay. XD

*nod nod* 🙂 It is much much easier to buy directly from the company/dealer now. before that … some people have to pay *A LOT* for a Volks/Obitsu body on ebay.

Oh damn, the feet are out of stock in both sites… 😦 so, for the go guy head color do you order them from Volksusa? And the bodies? It’s a little confusing… Good to save some money, do what’s the best for our order. As the feet aren’t in stock, I don’t need anything else besides two heads/bodies you already know. I’ll add later the feet in guy color, with another order, ok?

Much easier, especially when the only other time you find the head you really want, it’ll cost you $30 (which I could get an Obitsu body for. O_o) I’ll definitely keep checking back here in the future should I need more stuff, that and I like to see your dolls (even if I can’t afford the prettyness. XD)

Kizzychan: sadly, only one set of optional feet/body/natural skin is available in Japan site. 😦 I would order the guy skin heads in USA site because Japan site doesn’t have them. Would also order 1-2 heads that Japan site doesn’t have. 🙂
Corvinus: in the old days… $30 for a head, and … $50 for a volks body!! That was before Volks has developed its English site and DollandHobby was the only dealer. …. sure just let me knos when you need anything. 😀
