I hope the garnet Orb will come next and a holy grail proplica *___* that would be perfect

I saw them on ‘yesasia’ but they are MUCH more expensive. I hope we can see them soon on other websites with their usual price 🙂

With the Premium Bandai stuff, I have had yet to find other websites carrying them at the original price. Having used deputy sites before, there is a lot of money required to get items to the USA – even when they are small items.
Since those items are only sold in Japan to Japan, most sellers outside of Japan likely would require contacts with Japanese suppliers willing to buy the items in bulk. With that there would likely be a commission for their services or possibly an additional payment of a certain percentage of each item sold.
There is then shipping, which can be quite expensive, especially when one asks for additional insurance and tracking costs, and with how expensive the necklaces are… you’d ask for those things. Sometimes there are money conversion fees to take into consideration as well.
The sites that seem to charge high above the price… they likely do that because of all these factors and thus charge more in order to make an actual profit.
Sailor Moon
I just bought the japanese Holygrail in a new condition with gems for 600 euros.. so no expensive sailor moon toys this month….but I just had such a obsession with it I coudn’t put it out of my head…xd
Sailor Moon
if it was some pointless steel I woudn’t buy it.
Sailor moon merchandisa has to be pretty.
I still would take the original talismans if I had the money for it,but if you never gonna use them I suggest to buy these.

Stainless steel IS pretty. It can be just as pretty as silver but it doesn’t tarnish and is stronger material. It also isn’t pointless. There is some very lovely jewelry made of stainless steel. Some people have their wedding bands made out of it.
Sailor Moon
But they still look the prettiest now, a cheaper option woudn’t just make the match.

The Premium Bandai link is this one: http://p-bandai.jp/fashion-net/c0007/c000725/item-1000086343/
You can order it through a deputy, but I haven’t seen any international shops selling them yet.
Nyxity
T_T Why?! Why must the jewelry be so expensive?! Why can’t they make some cheaper versions out of stainless steel and gold tone plating or something for the poor folk?! Sigh… so many beautiful things I’ll never have access to…
Thanks for the info as usual!
smcollectibles
I wish they did too! I guess they’re trying to stay “premium”?
Nyxity
Meg… they could make Premium and regular Bandai. More merchandise, plenty of money for them to make. -__-

X_X I’m going to be so broke.
Michiru
I will only be able to buy one of them 🙁 I love Uranus&Neptune but the christal carillion is much more bautiful-in my opinion- which one would you choose if you only had money for one ? 😀
smcollectibles
Ahh that’s a really tough decision! If you plan on wearing it and think the twinkle bell is the prettiest then go with your gut! If you’re not going to wear it and only display maybe Neptune’s mirror? Outer senshi merchandise has always been more popular/rare.

Anywhere to preorder if outside Japan? Will middlemen be able to order them?
smcollectibles
Yeah you can use a deputy to order.
