welcome to fan services!
If you're interested in purchasing doujinshi and other goods in Japan, you've come to the right place! I live in Tokyo and collect doujinshi myself, so I started offering shopping services and event pick-up services for fen outside Japan. Let me know how I can help!

Just a reminder, I'll be leaving for Singapore tomorrow, and will be difficult to get a hold of until May 6th. (Not quite sure of the state of my internet yet!) So if you don't hear back from me for a while, that's the reason.
I'd like to thank everyone who participated in last week's sale! I'll try to do my best to keep adding items of interest to the sales pages for you guys.
In May, I'm considering doing a trial run of in-store shopping services for fannish (and other!) shops in Nakano, Ikebukuro, and possibly other locations. The plan is to visit shops at /least/ once a week, probably more, looking for people's requests over a three week period. If I find anything for you, there would be a participation fee as well as a small fee per item. Would this be of interest to anyone?
The usual fannish locations are Animate, Mandarake, KBooks, and all those figurine/goods resale shops in Nakano, but I'm also open to other requests, as long as I know where to find them along my commuting route. (Magazines, clothes, whatever.)

Now that the sale inventory is over 100 items strong,
fanservices is having a sale! Through April 24th, all purchases over $30 will be 20% off! \o/
Seriously, my collection is getting too big to house, and I apparently have bought a lot of duplicates, so I'm continuing to put more items up for sale. I've updated most of the anime sections -- next up is Western fandoms! You can browse by fandom using the links below.
In other news: Exchange Rate
In checking my account statements, it appears that my US bank has been using a rather unfavorable exchange rate for overseas purchases. :| I'm trying to find out what the frilly heck is going on with that, but in the meantime, I will have to adjust the exchange rate used to Y100=USD$1.41. (Yes, this differs from xe, Visa, and my own bank's posted exchange rates by a lot, but it's what I'm getting charged to make purchases, unfortunately.)

The sales posts have been updated! Quite a few new items added, and many more to come once I sort through the boxes currently holding my (largely unread) collection. It's time to find these items good homes.

Animate (official fanmerch)My apologies for the break. There's been a lot going on in RL lately, of which I'll spare the comm most of the details.
One very relevant change, however, is my new work situation for the upcoming school year. Since I'll be working in a different part of Tokyo, I may be able to set up in-store shopping services for Ikebukuro, free of commuting expenses. In addition, I will tentatively set Wednesdays as shipping days, as I'm currently set to work only four days a week.
I was remiss in not clarifying my vacation schedule a few weeks ago, so I'll mention here: I will be in Singapore between April 27th and May 6th. Yay, Golden Week! If anyone would like to meet upand geek out about the Avengers and comic books, my main reasons for going ^^;;, drop me a line. Next weekend is also booked (SCA!), as is the first or second weekend following Golden Week (my birthday! sumo!).
Upcoming posts:
❀ Schedule: When I'm booked, what events are going on (and polls to judge interest), etc.
❀ Reopened! Private Orders
❀ Discussion: new services
❀ Ide[a]s of May
Shipping status:
I have a few packages that were delayed because of vacation -- they will be going out tomorrow. Apologies for the wait!

I'm sorry guys, but I won't be able to be a reliable proxy for Haru Comic City this year.
My parents are visiting at that time; I'm not certain if I will be able to go at all. (If I do, it will be a very brief visit, and so I hesitate to make any sort of promises about pick-ups.)
Status report:
§ The books from the last three events have been sorted. I am in the midst of packing and weighing them for shipping estimates.
§ I am still waiting on a few direct order packages to make it in.
§ I'm procrastinating on making an event report/cosplay post, sorry for whoever's waiting. Some pix are up on twitter/twitpic.
§ Hopefully by this weekend, I'll have updated the sales pages and added a lot more. I have way too many doujinshi >.< (If anyone has a preferred format for sales pages -- easier to navigate, easier on the eyes -- let me know!)
