@NellieG has ordered them from Amazon.jp, and I'm currently attempting to order some too.
I went to Amazon.jp, but I cant sign in with my UK details, and when I try to open a new account in .jp it keeps failing to send me the OTP (One Time Password) to complete registration.
@NellieG, did you pay for shipping on top when you ordered?
How did you manage to complete your order (I went to Amazon.jp and changed language to English, but can't for the life of me work out how to complete an order to the UK).
I'm thinking I might just order from MTMT Audio as they offer free shipping, so might work out similar price even though they're asking $30 (!)
Can anyone tell me if the free shipping is international on eartips from MTMT Audio?

I back in January ordered the normal Azla sednas and it was at this time I created an account on amazon japan but how that process went I can’t recall but I do know it was quickly and swiftly.
For my order 2 days ago for the Xelastec I went through the normal amazon process, added to cart, checkout, there it adds the shipping and import fees which on my order in January I actually received a partial refund on the import fees. They have shipped today and apparently will be here Monday via DHL.

They look somewhat similar in shape to these.. they fit me best so far!Anybody have spare genuine stock white tips of AKG Samsung Earphones? I've tried Spinfit, FiiO and Tennmark but still impressed by the ones from Samsung and consider them to be the best for my ears:

Just got the Xelastec tips from Amazon jp, took 3 days from Japan to the US, Amazon.jp really has the best shipping deal from japan considering the speed. I bought the pack with 3 different sizes, ms, m & ml, they were much larger than I expected, wish I had ordered the smaller set.
Anyway, these sure are super sticky, you don't ever have to worry about tips slipping off again. But the vacuum effect is also strong with these, I think I will use them with vented iems instead of completely sealed ones like many all BA sets. Over time, these do feel quite comfortable and provide excellent seal, probably the best seal out of all the silicone tips I have, but the sound is pretty similar to regular Azla earfits. Also, they attract earwax like crazy, so cleaning them with wipes once in a while is probably a good idea.

How much bigger than average are they? one size bigger (like the other Azla tips)?

Yeah, the ML size is about the same diameter as regular azla L size.

It seems that ML are 13.3mm and the L are 14mm iirc.
Sedna earfit and xelastic are actualy the same diameter

Azla Xelastec sizes:
Most run a bit larger than spiral dots and final tips.

my bad for not checking, I guess they just feel large because it is very sticky, while the regular ones are smooth and slide in and out easier.

Wish Azla made 12.9mm size (basically something between M and ML) haha.
