- Settei Requests Rules
-
- I can search for a particular series that you are
interested in or I can look for more sets from a series I already
have. These are the guidelines and possible costs for requesting a
series:
- If the series is on settei.net and I have not yet
traded for it, then you can ask me to trade for it for you (if you
don't/can't trade for it yourself). This can take awhile depending on
what else has been ordered from there (I have a waiting list right now of series
ordered from there, so it will take a long time to get). This option
does not require a down payment from the requestor.
- If the series is NOT on settei.net, then I can search for the series on
Japanese auctions sites. As long as the price does not go too high,
then there is no down payment for series that I am interested in (see my wish list
for series I am currently interested in acquiring). If I find the
series, then I will tell you how much the opening bid is, the approximate
number of sheets and how high I am willing to bid on the auction. If
you want the series and wish me to bid higher, then you will have
to pay for the difference between my max bid and whatever you set as the
highest price you with to have me bid. If you choose to have
me bid higher then what I would normally bid, you have to pay in advance
the amount you are willing to go up to (you will get a refund if the
auction is not won, or for any amount that doesn't use that max bid).
When you pay for part of acquiring the set, then you will get a copy
of the set (in full color if the set is in color) for a reduced price (depending
how high the auction goes, this 'cost' may end up only being shipping it to
you). If you wish to have the Set that is purchased from Japan (usually
a Studio Set), then you will have to pay the full price for the set plus
shipping costs from Japan (the last group of series I bought had a shipping
cost of $60 for Surface mail, so this is an expensive option to choose,
though it is available) and the shipping to you. I cannot have it
mailed directly to you from Japan due to the intermediary I have to go through
to acquire these sheets.
- If the series is NOT on settei.net, AND I am
NOT interested in it, then I can search for the series on
Japanese auctions sites. If I find the series, then I will tell you
how much the opening bid is, the approximate number of sheets are
offered. If you want the series and wish me to bid on it,
then you will have to pay for the max bid you set to have me bid. You
have to pay in advance the amount you are willing to go up to
(you will get a refund if the auction is not won, or for any amount that
doesn't use that max bid). If you do NOT wish to pay for shipping from
Japan, then you will get a copy of the set (in full color if the set is in
color) for the price you paid for the auction. If you wish to have the
studio set (or whatever it is that the auction has), then you will have to
pay the full price for the set plus shipping costs from Japan (the last
group of series I bought had a shipping cost of $60 for Surface mail, though
airmail shipping is available) and the shipping to you. I cannot have
it mailed directly to you from Japan due to the intermediary I have to go through
to acquire these sheets.
- I cannot guarantee that I can get any series for you
(nor what characters will be in it), and if it turns out that I could not get
you the series, then I will give you a full refund. Otherwise,
all sales
are final.
Sorry I have to ask for an advance payment, but I have no way of having you
pay for something you asked me to get once I have committed to purchasing the
set from Japan (and these get expensive real fast). This is to keep me
from having someone say they will bid to X amount, and then have them not pay
once the auction is won. For your protection, any costs associated with
requesting sheets can only be conducted through Paypal.
Note: Shipping options from Japan are Surface Mail (2-3 months, but
cheapest), Sal Mail (usually 1-2 months, but costs more than Surface mail), Air
Mail (can take up to 1 month, costs more than Sal, though normally not by much),
and Registered Express Mail (within 2weeks, normally takes 1, very expensive,
though the safest shipping method)
