Edunstar84 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 That's why you should go for eBay! Not even Norway can tax you for an envelope =D I'd have to say it's a gift for someone else....they like to slam on the custom duty! Trust me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'd have to say it's a gift for someone else....they like to slam on the custom duty! Trust me. Maybe you can try some cheaper game to see =D Or try to contact the seller and request the GIFT option =D That could also work =D The names are always written (I know some Japanese people now ) so it should be valid =D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephirothdude Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I always get a bit jealous of those who can import because here in Norway, it's cost of game+shipping cost+custom duty+sales tax = no chance in hell I'm importing!

Dragon-Archon Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 No, no, that wasn't price for custom =D That was the price I paid for games To show that all easily got over 22€ =D In terms of customs, I paid around 20€ (it was in dollar so actually better conversion rate for me ) but it's always (VAT/100) * Overall price. Depending on how you handle it with customs services, there may be an additional price for your courier Oh ok, I thought that was the price of the games + customs. I always get a bit jealous of those who can import because here in Norway, it's cost of game+shipping cost+custom duty+sales tax = no chance in hell I'm importing! I would love to buy IA/VT Colorful and Moe Chronicle I feel your pain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satoshi Ookami Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 Oh ok, I thought that was the price of the games + customs. I would wish... unfortunately, the games were ~50€ by default... Plus, you get customs on specific invoice (and because the company that handles this in my country is crap, only paper one), without counting, I could only take the prices from P-A directly =D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sora9427 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Vita games are overpriced in The Netherlands . Importing games also doesn't make much of a difference. Lol, I don't have that much patience . Yeah me too, i don't have that much patience Either but watching all my Backlog that afetr this summer got huge i just say "Yeah i can wait, i won't play it anytime soon anyway" I mean i Got HN; Re Birth 2 Last November still nto even installed or Atelier Meruru Plus and PErsona 4 Golden Last Demeber, not even touched both after 8 months Considering this game, it will probably have 50% sale the first time, no need to wait It must! Import is the savior! Import all the way! Well Satoshi it could even go to 50% sale (Yeah probably alread Megatagmension is now 50% sale first time) but if in the same sale i ahve for example Daganronpa 2, Digimon Cyber sleuth or Senran Kagura EV Well This have a lot more priority than it, that's why it took me like 7-8 Sales before getting Daganronpa 1, there was always something else i wanted before Edited August 9, 2016 by Puriddu9427 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satoshi Ookami Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Okay so... after LONG 2 weeks, I finally Platted it. Now after finishing... I'm not sure if this game actually needs a guide The Plat is all about 50 hours of RNG grinding by repeatedly clicking 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bot sends you a message when it drops price. Which is unfortunately not very often. Just curious, if VAT is charged, how is it applied? Is it a percentage of the total order? Reason I ask is because the forwarder I use asks me to manually type in the value of each item, meaning that you could potentially say each item is like 100 yen when you ship it (you will have to deal with less insurance, but that is rarely a problem) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is, including shipping and additional costs because you are required to present invoice which includes the complete price. And yea, it definitely works through forwarders, but there is rarely such opinion when I'm shopping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satoshi Ookami Posted September 21, 2016 Author Share Posted September 21, 2016 But I like the plat image . All trophies have runes As I said, go for it if you are prepared for endless RNG grind, it's not hard, I would rate it 2/10 at most, it's simply boring, repetitive and annoying grind, that's all =D On the other hand, if you need to kill some time in work, or while commuting, it's a perfect time killer.
