Anyone bought respirators from QSS or LSH before? Do any of them open on saturdays and do they sell single units to customers?

Hey guys, whats kit has the highest price/weight ratio? In other words, its expensive but light.

I have managed to get 500jpy discount from a japanese seller. Since I don't want to get chop carrot on shipping fees, I am looking for a lightweight kit.

shipping cost is determined by volume also, not just weight. so dun go those big big boxes like PG or certain MG. if u want expensive but light and small size, then buy those limited edition ones loh


but y not just get what u like?

Which reseller are you buying from?

If they are quoting EMS fees, you can reject if the fees are ridiculously high. EMS shipping fees from Japan is pretty standard. About 3k yen for items around 1.7-2.0KG for example.

Because the seller messed up my previous order. Now they said they will reimburse me for the mistake, but the reimbursement will be a discount on my next order.

I don't really want to order from them again, so I don't feel like placing a large order, which means I won't get any discount from combined shipping. In which case, I will want the item with the lowest shipping cost.

So far, like what the others have said, I have been looking at the RG kits, because they allow SAL instead of EMS shipping.

if thats the case then i'd rather u not take up their offer at all.. its just bait to get u to patronize their services even further.:s22::s22:

I notice that gundam model builders skills either damn lousy or like to take shortcut.

knn where got ppl teach others to just flat coat the model kit?

dare to call urself modellers?

compared to real modellers who do armour kits, gundam modellers are jokes!

Gundam modellers are not real modellers, they are just TOYMAKERS

You sound like the guy I bought my starter kit at sunshine plaza the other time.
