So... my purchase from Japan through eBay has been sitting in New York (I'm assuming customs) for 4 days now. I have purchased before (twice) and it didn't lingered this long at the Customs office. Is this normal? :huh:

A girl just wants her bag already, ya know? Lol. :girlsigh:

Depending on where your final destination for the package is and if it was through DHL or EMS. I've been waiting just over a month.

It's via EMS coming to Maryland. I've had purchases before that didn't take this long. But I checked the tracking info today and it says it's in the local post office now. Hopefully, I get it today or tomorrow. ^_^

I'm also crossing my fingers yours will come through soon.
 
I've purchased from ilovekawaii about three times and all my items were in bubble wrap and then placed in a large envelope. They all came undamaged. Nothing was bent out of shape. Everything arrived in a week or less. And the prices for the quality of items I got were unbeatable. I've purchased from 2 other Japanese sellers too and Ilovekawaii to me was the better pricepoint.
Japan mail is impressive. I also received a purse bubble wrapped inside a large dark yellow envelope (super sturdy envelope) and no damage (the item itself was already in very good condition) and it was quite fast. However...the custom fees :'( not so impressive

Have you purchased anything from I love Kawaii yet? I haven't purchased from them, personally, but I know someone who has. My friend was extremely disappointed in the packaging/shipping. I love kawaii ships in a big white paper envelope. There was nothing to protect her bag from damage. So I would inquire about the packaging.

I have purchased from Ilovekawaii and they were the only ones i have had to pay customs on so far. The bag was 147$ and the customs came out to $45 canadian. it was a nice bag so i didn't mind and i got a great deal overall. The bag came in a huge cardboard box with bubble wrap and a leather cleaning cloth. I have also purchased twice from hellovintage and was no dissapointed! However they sent everything in a plastic bag lol

Thank you so much for this. I've been watching hellovintage but have been unsure about them.

hmmm I was starting to think that canadians always had to pay custom...who was the seller with whom you didn't pay any custom? I might check them out :)
Hello! Sorry for the delayed response. Yes, I am. It's a 30-year old Petit Noe.
ohh nice, the next bag I want is a petit Noé too :D in yellow. I'm planing on getting on a the end of the months, however so far I bought two bags and I had to pay customs everytime :(
