Have you ordered from HLJ?

Have any of you ordered from HLJ.com to the U.S.? I want to get the new Subaru WRC digi q, but I don't know much about the company.

Are they reliable?

Are they quick?

Please respond.

Thanks

Every order I've gotten from them was complete and packed extremely well.

Not exactly speedy, average delivery time was 9 - 12 business days. Reason being I think is that he ships bulk, so he waits until he's got a certain quotta before shipping.

Question;
Have you sent an email to Tiny to see if he can get his hands on one first?

Got a pair of Wild Char-G hook shooters from HLJ. Shipping was about half the cost of the items. Much more reasonable than ToyEast. No problems. Got 'em in about 10 days. The prices at HLJ seem to be all over the place though. Very good on some items and really high on others??

I've ordered several items from them before. Good service and came soon. This last order was $|-|i+ though. PREORDERED a gundam that wasn't out yet until November. Hoping it would come before Christmas, I ordered it. I was waiting and waiting for several months and they said they were getting a new shipment. Then I found out the item went out of production so I never got my item and never will.

My first and only order with them took three weeks because there was this weeklong holiday that stopped work at the UPS Japan. They know how to pack things properly I guess and would like to order some new Gundam SEED kits of them (must get Sword Strike Gundam )

I can also recommend them. I've only ordered once from them, but it was here before the due date and in excellent condition. I plan on ordering more from them. Although, NO ONE can beat the service and speed that Tiny offers. NOBODY!!!

I know dat, but Tiny don't have Digi Q Subaru WRC RALLY with lights and turny front wheels. I appreciate the response, guys. And Yes... support your local forum if at all possible.

Nothing really new for me to add but:

HLJ shipping is a little slow. Well, actually it's not really the shipping. It's how long they take to process your order and actually ship it. The shipping price is extremely reasonable. And their sale prices are extremely reasonable.

I got two original MicroSizers (single speed, normal painted bodies) for just over $28 shipped. That's definitely worth the few days extra wait. Keep an eye on the Clearance items.
