Import Question

Hi everyone!

So I am looking into importing the Code Geass calendar and DS game.  Are there particular websites that people reccomend?  I've been looking at Akadot Retail for the calendar and ToysNJoys for the game, but I wondered if there are cheaper or more reliable places to get them from.  Thanks for any info!

I've bought a lot from Akadot and never had a problem. I've never ordered from Play-Asia but I get things from HLJ *Hobby Link Japan* all the time and I've never had an issue either.

akadot has horrible shipping prices. $10 for a magazine!
try yesasia.com, free shipping, good prices.
hlj is ok, play-asia is ok, too.

Akadot is reliable, but I would add as much to your order as possible. I found that it was $12 flat fee to Canada, but I added up to 4 more items and the shipping went up about $3. You can sign up and add things to your shopping cart, then see what shipping is going to cost before committing to buy which I found to be a very useful feature.

But my order arrived really fast from Akadot. Just be careful if you're ordering international, because they use UPS to Canada and for the first time ever, I got hit with a hefty $34 duty fee (on a $45 order!)
