you must register with tenso first. they will give you an address to ship the products from amazon.ja to tenso. then tenso will send the package to you with a processing and shipping fee.


Well, that puts a spanner in the works. With a 454g shipping weight it will be a 1500yen shipping fee plus a 490yen service fee which is ~$21.50 for a total cost of ~$55.50 which is only ~$3 cheaper than ebay.

You'll get them in about 1 week though versus the torturous ebay wait!

I think I waited for at least 3 weeks for my s500's from eBay buyfromjapan. One week for my ad900x to arrive from amazon japan/tenso (to Canada).

(I'm just playing, not really mad FYI)
 
Anyway I clicked on the link and suddenly everything went black and showed error message windows connecting the top left and bottom right corners, Windows Classic style. Before I even read one of them, they all went away and my desktop flickered back for a split second then a random image thingy replaced it and in the bottom right there was an error message window that said "The canvas does not allow drawing" and then everything was just black with a cursor for a few seconds and my computer logged out and back in with a fresh start (not a full reboot).
 
Weirdest (but also coolest) thing I've ever seen...
