Also, the NAFTA thing isn't that big of a deal for importing, it's the exchange rate that's causing us more problems... I brought NAFTA up as an example of how things could drastically alter even a few months from now should things collapse. The exchange rate however is still shit and we're going Pay CND for US dollars to pay Japan exporters in Yen because I don't think third party sellers get stuff straight from Takara and I'm not sure if you can pay CND to YEN for importing stock from Japan... I have no idea then, maybe I'm completely off, I don't run a business after all so I have no idea what the hell the cost to import the stuff even is.

A3U probably gets their stuff from Japan, just like my buddy does for his store.

Try emailing him and asking for a quote. I guess if there is enough of an interest for this item, I could convince his ass to make a profile here and he could deal with y'all directly.
I'd ask myself, but I really have no interest in this deco.
As for exchange rate, the entire world is tied into the US dollar, so I hear where you're coming from. I know when you're in the actual country, exchange rates are typically better than what we get on the Interwebs here.. of course, that doesn't help us at all.
What also doesn't help is the 3% or whatever it is service fee that most of us pay for For Ex.
