How can I find out the cost of shipping on HLJ? I am searching around their site but can't find it...


Cheers.

Each item page has one. Multiple items should cost less than the total shipping cost of each item added together.

"For SAL orders the formula is more complex. If your package can be shipped as a postal "small packet" (total weight under 2kg, length + width + height < 90cm), then the cost is about 1,080 yen/kilogram. If one of the items in your order is too large to ship by small packet, then we must ship by the more expensive "parcel" class, which is 1,400 yen/kg to 1,700 yen/kg, depending on final weight."

BTW shipping info is right here http://www.hlj.com/hlj_shipping.html

When your dad sees the HLJ bill, you'd feel like it's your credit card (your dad still pays for it though :cool: ).

They ship to the US right? How can you make the yen to dollars?

www.xe.com has good conversions.

Haven't had any problems so far with shipping to the US. So far the largest shipping bill has been $17, that's a shipment of 3 model kits and a bunch of misc (two wheel sets, epoxy putty, masking tape). Even with shipping added, in the end it still ends up cheaper than ordering from online stores in the US (recently got hit with a $9 charge for one kit) since most online hobby stores in the US like to jack up shipping and handling.

Credit card company takes care of the conversion with a small amount of fee. It's like adjusting a few yen to the most recent exchange rate, and exchange rate always appears on the bill if the item is purchased from overseas. That's one of many benefit of using a credit card.
