that depends on where you are, whether they have the item in stock and what type of shipping you select!

if every thing is in stock, on average it takes 2 weeks from the time you order to the time it gets to your door step. the first week to process the order and the second to deliver.

Oh cool. What about shipping cost? Whatever it says on the site is all I have to pay, right?

They'll give you a shipping cost when they ship your order. It doesn't necessarily depend on what it says on the site. Please read their FAQ, it answers many questions.

Yes, and it says that the customer pays actual shipping costs, so when they have the actual shipping cost they will charge you that amount.

near the upper right hand corner it shows how much it would cost to ship that single item. but to get an accurate shipping cost, total up the weight of all the items in your order including the box(i think its about 300g). then divide that by 1,000 to get the wieght in kilo grams then multiply that by 1280yen then convert it to the current exchange rate and viola thats your total shipping cost. the final shipping cost from my experience is that its a little under from what i calculate but sometimes a little over, not by much though.

So, can you just tell me how much is the shipping cost for an average model? What about a set of wheels?

It is not that hard to work out yourself, he explained it to you.

When you look at the wheels on hlj.com, look at the weight they list and use the method explained to calculate the approximate shipping.

Always only been about 2 weeks for me. Longest ive had to wait is 15 days.
Another easy way to calculate a rough estimate of shipping is get the price of the item, and the shipping cost to your country and then go to http://www.xe.com/uc where you type in the amount, change from yen to your currency and voila. Just remember thats a rough estiamte. It might be more.
