Post Celga Question...
Hey I am new to Celga. How long does it usually take from the time the item is won in Japan 'til the item actually arrives in hand in the states? Is this Celga pretty safe and reliable? I just gave them a chunk of cash this week and I am a little anxious because I am new to that service....
Thanks.

First the item will go their warehouse. Then it will be marked on your page that they have the item. Once they have it, they'll hold it until you request shipping, that way you could ship one item, or all the items you win over a few months. You have your choice of shipping methods EMS sounds like what you want, since you're a little worried. It's faster too, I've never had a problem. Overall time? Maybe 2 to 3 weeks.

Celga is expensive, but very good at what they do. I use them over other cheaper services just for the reliability.

yeah - use the little page set up for you on their website - you can see what shipments have arrived in their warehouse. if you plan on buying several things, just wait and get it shipped all at once. it's fun to open a big ass celga box

Like most businesses they do have problems occasionally but for the most part...people seem content.

I've heard though that leaving Celga is very hard to do. Multiple people have wanted to discontinue the service and get the run around. At least that's how it was a year ago.
