06.08.09 ~ Hails from KL

The Le Sportsac 35th Anniversary ~ Beauty Girl was sold out in Singapore and really wanna get a piece of it. When I heard of it, it was too late and this print was a Japan exclusive. Hence, the print was popular and mags were sold out in Kinos SG. Called Kino SG, they mentioned that they wouldnt be ordering as their second shipment had arrived already. The remaining stocks were left with the polka dots and stripes version.

Decided tried to check with Amazon Japan and it was relatively expensive. IMHO, I didnt understand the order form coz it's Japanese and even if it was translated in English, it still seemed too complicated. There was a seller who sold this mag AT USD 29.99 in ebay. How to bid for the item when it was even more expensive after currency conversion?

Tried to source for the mag & bag from other source. Managed to see a Malaysian blog at a stroke luck that mentioned that about the bag. Couldnt remember much details except that I remembered writing in to Kino KL branch for enquiry of the bag.

Kino KL managed to get a copy for me and would courier it over to SG. There were hiccups along the way and I managed to get it at my doorstep today. Hooray!

On the other hand, I'm worried about the charges upon currency conversion would be on a high side. Just had to wait for the end of the month. I hope that the price of the magazine would still be relatively cheaper as compared to those of Amazon Japan.

Here are pictures of parcel and some freebies were thrown in by Kino KL.

PS : The Kino KL team was extremely patient and understanding throughout the whole process.
