hi! thanks for all the compliments....
i've been so busy the whole week that i haven't got the time to re-arrange my stuff and put my new purchases into good use... i'm sure i'll love it in time to come...
pebz: yes. i have to pay GST. overall, it's still cheaper than buying locally.... in fact, for the same price that i paid (including shipping and GST) for these 2 items, i think i can only get the wallet at the local store...
