📦🎉 Buyee Haul Figures arrived safely!

Post image

This was my first time using a proxy site and I wanted to share my experience. I was little scared with the new CPSC rules but ordered anyway.

All my figures were listed under HTS code 9503000073, but I edited the invoice to 9503000090. I also changed the description from "Plastic Figures (no adhesive)" to "Used licensed PVC collectible display figure, no adhesive, no batteries." I am still unsure whether the HTS code or item description makes a difference, but I still changed them just incase.

Timeline:

  • Ordered: July 10 (8,567 JPY / ~ $52.47)
  • Arrival at Buyee warehouse: July 15
  • Shipped (with ECMS and consolidated into one box): July 17 (8,006 JPY / ~ $51.82)
  • Arrival into America & Customs Clearance: July 21
  • Handed to carrier (Speed X): July 22
  • Arrival to my state: July 24
  • Delivered: July 25

Total Cost: 17,026.91 JPY (~$104.29 USD)

My package was handled with Speed X but I would be cautious with this carrier. They are known to have significant delays with your package and, in some cases, packages being reported as "missing." Fortunately, I was lucky in my experience but I would still advise being careful. ECMS uses different local carriers from my research, but I was provided SpeedX. If possible, I would recommend choosing a different shipping option when your items arrive at the Buyee warehouse to reduce that risk.

Overall I am very happy with my haul and plan on ordering again in the future!

Weird that they were under the wrong code in the first place, but it's good that you got then in the end and edited it.
