Brightfeather

Post by Zerochaku » Fri Aug 13, 2010 6:18 am

I want to buy my first Busou Shinki which is going to be Brightfeather but I live in the US and the cheapest I found her for is about $60. Is $60 a reasonable price?

id never get a light armor for as much.
def not worth it i think.

back in the days id only pay something around 30 per fullset too---oh good days.
Surely bright 's still at the low price somewhere- i dont suppose she sold out? even if she became something of a rare now- def not something id pay so much for.

Does that include shipping and handling?
They started out at about $30 retail. If that price includes EMS shipping, I can see it getting that high, but I'd check other places first.

If you want Bright Feather, here's a back-order from AmiAmi.

http://www.amiami.jp/shop/?set=english& ... splay.html

They usually have what they have on back-order. If not, you can try here.

Both should have SAL shipping, so the S/H is only 10 bucks.

Bright Feather is awesome and a worthy addition to any Shinki group... but not $60 awesome... In fact, try not to go over $40 including shipping if you can help it... and when you do get her, be very careful with those glasses. And, like Zero_Blazer already said, AmiAmi are very good about getting back-orders in, but that "1-2 weeks of lead time" is no joke. Be prepared to be patient.

$60 is with shipping and handling included but that would be a last resort if I can't find her cheaper. Also I can't use AmiAmi at the moment because I don't have paypal yet and can't get it until next month. I should probably wait until then.

Uh, why can't you get paypal? How do you normally pay for online items? If by credit card, you just have to link the paypal with your credit card. If that's not up for you, then just buy it from HWJapan, who will take straight-up credit cards. Also, 60 bucks after S/H is still too pricy for a light armor.

Its a long story and I never needed paypal before because any time I needed something online I would have a friend get it for me but they only use websites they know. Also I heard paypal is the safest way to buy stuff online so I wouldn't trust any other way. Hopefully by waiting I can find her cheaper somewhere else later.
