Who can help me getting a rims from there, and I forgot the wesite, but there is one in US who can win the auction and ship them over here with their processing fee (3~5% of the total).... gosh... getting old with bad memories.... they were specialized on Jap's animation.... please help! ;)

Rinkya and MailOrderJapan charge crazy prices for stuff. If you buy wheels with MOJ, they charge an auction fee just for bidding, then a certain percentage of the final auction price, then an oversize charge just for recieving and holding the wheels, then you pay double shipping and I'm sure there's a few things I left out. If you do order from these sites its only worth it when buying alot small items. Unless you get lucky and win an auction for cheap. You're better off getting most stuff, especially wheels, in the states. My brother and I are trying to talk my uncle into bidding with his account and letting us ship stuff to his house then flying over there and shipping it from Kadena Air Base so we can save alot of money. Japanese postal service is very expensive. Doing that like every 6 months will be worth the plane tickets over there. :idiot2:

Agreed...which is why I never use those services and just have my friends get stuff for me and ship it to me and I give tham a bit on top of it for their help.

I checked out Rinkya....then decided I'd find some other way. Too many hoops to jump through and fees and crap. I'd rather do it on a private level.
