They just got theirs put up there. It was not listed a few days ago for the December issue

They are SO Freaking insane with the shipping. I use this
http://www.jpophouse.com/ They are much cheaper with the shipping (A LOT CHEAPER) but you just have to wait for newer issues to be available (they are kind of slow on that).
Last time the postal service mailed my things to me LATE so I e-mailed jpophouse and informed them of that. They got a refund from them and refunded $20 to my paypal account. That was so nice of them!
I just ordered 4 magazines (1 Shoxx, 1 Cure, 2 Fools mate) and 1 cd (Vidoll album) from them, the total was around $90 including shipping which was ONLY $8.50.
1 Shoxx 10/2005 537-10 US$15.00 US$0.00 US$15.00
1 Cure 11/2005 Vol. 26 955-11 US$16.00 US$10.95 US$0.00 US$10.95 (this one was on discount)
1 Fool's Mate 8/2005 825-08 US$15.00 US$0.00 US$15.00
1 Fool's Mate 9/2005 825-09 US$15.00 US$0.00 US$15.00
1 Vidoll- Bijinkei (Album) KPCD-001 US$25.00 US$0.00 US$25.00
Purchase Price (Discounted to) US$80.95
Shipping US$8.50
Total: US$89.45
If it was xyz, it would have been over $100 definitely and sometimes you don't even know when you'll get your item (they are not very informative on that).
I was curious and I just added the same 4 magazines up with xyz and the total with cheapest shipping was $81! And I didn't even buy any CD from them on the same order like I did with jpophouse.
Shoxx Oct 2005 1 12U.S. 600g
Cure Nov 2005 1 11U.S. 600g
Fool's Mate Aug 2005 1 11U.S. 550g

THAT IS INSANE.
It's expensive to be a J-rock fan so I try to save as much money as I can (and I don't even listen to that much J-rock YET).
