Question about HLJ and Paying

[Michael Schumacher]

My local hobby store doesnt have a very good selection of material or models and the worst part is everythings over priced. For example, a Tamiya Lan Evo VIII WRC is $54 without tax Canadian and on HLJ its only about $35 with shipping.
My question is, is there any other way to pay besides credit card or mailing them a cheque?

i believe you can draw money directly from your bank account if you choose to pay by paypal.

I, for example can't buy anything from HLJ. I don't have a Credit Card. And I can't register at PayPal, because I live i Poland. Maye I'll deal with somebody who has a card, argh.

since it's from Canada, this option is not possible.

Credit card or Money order. I really sugest you to go with credit card. I have an order that was Shipped for 30 days now and still not received it yet. so If you add an other 2 week for the money order, it will take a lot of time.

Why cant I use Paypal? You can sign up for a Non-U.S. Personal Account.

you can use Paypal by Credit card and not for Bank transfer.

Paypal support only Bank transfer in same curency of you bank account.. HLJ will ask you for Japan Yen so it will not work.

Bank transfer can only work in the same curency. If you have a bank account in Japan Yen, then it will work, but Paypal will not make any conversion yet..

this is what Paypal support told me

this is what I had to do get the money ready and give it to your parent... I don't see why they would not want.

If your parent are scare to order over internet (there is some ppl likte that !) then Use Paypal with the credit card.. it's safe like that.. but remember, when you will register to paypal, it will take 1 month to receive the confirmation number on the bill.. once registred it's easy.. I use it mainly for Ebay auction or to pay user here for stuff

good luck

How much longer does it take paying with a money order instead of with a credit card?

the time your money order goes to the US postal adress of HLJ + 5 day of processing..

So maybe 10 days or so

Since you are from B.C. look here: http://www.modelexpress.net

I make order there often and always pleased

I would order from a North American site or something like that but I want a certain thing off HLJ that I dont think I could find anywhere else. So I might send a money order or see if I can get a credit card.
