desperate times... (HELP!)

[ltgmars]

So who here [lives in Japan/has a mailing address in Japan/has a friend in Japan] and can get me this? I'm willing to pay so much money for it. Why? Because I'm an anal completist, and I don't have it.

Seriously. This is a serious request. I'm dying right now, and I need that photoset.

(Also eyeing this even though I'm getting the DVD from Leah, if only for the イベント配布生写真. Because KenKen in that really, really big shirt is AUGGHHHH. I can always give the DVD away or something... viva_kenken is getting up there in numbers, and I could give it away if/when we reach 200 or something.)

So seriously. Like, seriously, if there's any way you can help me, let me know. I'm considering contacting the Japanese transfer student we had freshman year, but considering that I haven't talked to her in forever, I don't know if it'd be rude to ask.

Then again, this is a rude request, isn't it?

Meh, the things I do for that boy...

P.S. Going with CELGA. Thanks for your help, everyone. ♥

hmm...I have an idea...
if you are really willing to PAY a lot of money, why not contact the bidding service? I am sure they are gonna cost you a lot, but then if you REALLY can't find any help, that's an option.....

"the bidding service"... sounds shady. XDD I think I'm going to go with CELGA (http://www.celga.com/)... thanks for your suggestion. ♥

I really, really hate the merch makers. So much Kamakari stuff... ><

Try buying through a proxy service like celga.com. I've only used their service to buy doujins from yahoo auctions Japan, so not sure if they do this kind of stuff. (Though I don't see why not). There are also other proxy services that do all kinds of other goods. Celga charges a fee depending how much the bid goes for ($5 minimum fee for goods up to 2,000 yen, I think), and you must pay them half your maximum bid amount prior to the bid end date. (If you don't win the auction, they'll refund you).

CELGA looks good. I hope it works out... :D Thanks so much for your help!

I could help you by bidding on Rinkya, but it will be expensive. That's how I bid on cels at Yahoo Japan.

We lead expensive lives, m'dear. Sometimes I wish that I could be obsessed with something inexpensive, like looking at walls.

I'm going with CELGA (http://www.celga.com/), but thanks for the offer. ^^

I couldn't have helped with your problem (but I am glad you found this celga thing), but thank you very much you got me addicted to ebay for the day. I spent money I don't have and and and *sigh* poo. It was fun though. *_*

>_>;; Sorry...

If it's any consolation, I just spent money that I have but can't use. ^^;;
