So I guess a far number of bloggers I talk to do their figurines preorder at local shops like KKnM, Latendo, Ani-Play, Toyntoys. So the poison begins.. Lol that picture you see is just some of the preorders I have due in time XD.

Local Shops Figurines Preorder

If you read my previous post on Shopping Online for Figurines and stuff(it’s suitable for Asian people like me – US Shipping Rates differ a lot =X) I touched briefly on shipping costs, and each respective sites service.

If you guys notice, I tend to get my character goods online these days because I am a Nanoha fan, and I always fail when it comes to going down to KKnM personally just to get my Nanoha goods when all the Nanoha fans gets to reserve beforehand! As such, I resort to getting online – Hobby Search! In addition, I only preorder at local shops for my scaled figurines(unless I do not have a choice, like missing the preorder date or it’s a must-have figurine on my list)

I noticed after looking at my preorder lists(online sites and local shop receipts) I get my nendoroids/figmas online hurhur. Simply put, why go the hassle to save 5 dollar when I can just order with a simple click? =D Sure the cost may be somewhat expensive, like 5-10 dollars difference(depending on the currency) but I’m sure when I go out, I’m bound to spend 5-10 dollars on food. I always finish my bottle of water before reaching my destination -_-. And there is no doubt I’ll want to buy something cooling to drink after finishing my quest of the day – to preorder the X figurine.

Few days back, on Thursday, I went to Tnt to preorder my Teana Lanster. I wasn’t sure about going to KKnM to preorder since most of the Nanoha Fans would have rushed down like last week after it was released online for preorders -_-.

Yeah well, KKnM was having her cheaper than Tnt by 2 dollars, but I personally felt it was safer to go along with Tnt in case my order do not make through at KKnM. Yes I preorder scaled figurines at local shops because they are cheaper =D. And the amount I save is around 30 dollars – which is worth the trouble, unlike nendoroids and figmas, the amount you save is around 5-10 dollars which I won’t bother to head down just to preorder =3.

The end of this post only proves one thing – I am lazy. Haha.

    Not as lazy as me… I’d be to lazy to buy in the first place… but I guess spitting hairs between lazy and cheap are a bit tough o.o
