Let me be your comic mule
Dec. 7th, 2010 09:26 pmAs you may have heard me dither about already, I'm going to Japan, and I'll be going to Comiket 79! For at least days 1 and 2, and day 3 if I'm not traumatised by that stage.
If you would like something that's only avaialable at Comiket or somewhere else in Japan (otaku-related or otherwise), I'll be happy to try and grab it for you! If you have something in mind, please send a message to me (my Twitter nickname at Gmail) and I'll try to pick it up on your behalf!
A few caveats:
* This only goes for people I at least vaguely know. Don't have the time or the skills to be a proxy buyer, even if I could do with the commissions. :B
* I'm not getting anything ridiculously popular that involves lining up for six hours at Comiket before the buttcrack of dawn (none of the stuff I want is in this category, buggered if I'll do it for anyone else)
* I'm not getting anything that will get me party-v&ed in Australia. I'll be paranoid about losing anything even vaguely spicy in Customs as it is. :[
* As far as I know, the package weight limit between US and Japan is still in effect, so if what you want weighs over a pound, I'll have to send it in separate packages or via a slower method (if there is one?). If this bothers you, apparently the restriction is only for individuals sending mail, so if you have your eye on something, you might be better off ordering it online!
* I've got Paypal so sending me money should not be a problem~
* My Japanese skill = what skills? So if something's particularly obscure I might not be able to help, sorry! But I'll try my best!
