Well, not exactly... Some (most) of you may have noticed that I have been pretty slow with anything site related these past couple of months. Sorry about that! >_< Long story short, not only was our daughter born a couple of months ago, but I was also given a promotion at my "real job" and have been super busy. While I have kept up with most things on the site, I have very rarely kept up the proper level of communication about what the progress has been and I apologize for that. Luckily, during my small amount of free time, I have been teaching my wife how to use the site and she has become pretty fair at it. Beginning now, she should be able to do most things, including give status updates, place orders, quote prices, pack, ship, etc. I do ask that you remember she is Japanese, so English is her second language. Please forgive her grammatical errors! Below, you will find a brief message from you to get you off on the right foot! -Sam
Hello everyone! As Sam mentioned earlier, I'm still learning. So please forgive my mistakes and bear with me. Once I know how to operate everything I will be able to do better and I'll promise you I will do my best to satisfy you all, thank you! (●´∀`●) - Ai |

Just a heads up to anyone planning on having anything with batteries forwarded. This includes Nintendo DS systems, Playstation Portables and Vitas, as well as PS3 Controllers and probably some other items that I am not thinking of off the top of my head. New regulations about "hazardous materials" have caused Japan Post and the other large shipping services in Japan to refuse shipment of items with rechargeable batteries to the U.S. Other countries can still receive these products, but only a limited number in a single package and ONLY via Surface Shipping. When items with batteries are purchased and need to be shipped to the U.S., you will have two options from me. The first (and least advisable) option is to simply attempt to have the items forwarded as normal. If they are not noticed, they will make it through the system and should not be an issue. If they are noticed, one of two things will happen. The package may be returned to me and the shipping fees will not be refunded. Alternatively, they may choose to remove the offending item and forward the remainder of the package. The second (and obviously best) option is for me to remove the batteries myself and ship the item(s) without or even to simply remove the controller if it's a system. According to my friend, Mr. TheInternet, PS3 controller batteries are removable, but I can't say I am sure how easy it is to find replacements. I have found that new replacement batteries for the other items listed above may be obtained on Ebay or through other sources fairly inexpensively. I will most certainly work with you to remove a small amount of the fee when this option is selected. Please let me know and we will come to an agreement. Please understand that this is certainly not something that I would like to do, but it has simply become impossible to ship these items easily under the current restrictions. I will also be posting a quick addition to the FAQ concerning this information which will include a link (most likely Japanese) for any that would like further information.

Any links to this site are greatly appreciated! There are a few small banner images located in this forum thread right now. If you would like a different size, just let me know and I will get something to you. Other banners are still being worked on as are the images for the upcoming slight redesign. ;)
The smaller links are perfect for forum signatures and the like, so if you would like to add it into your existing forum signatures, that would also be very helpful. Those of you with your own sites that would like to work out a banner trade are more than welcome to inquire. I am currently in the process of adding an extra page which will have links to other sites that share our link and/or simply sites that I feel are useful or interesting.
Another way to help is to place orders through our Amazon links for item forwarding or even for items that go directly to you. If you have not yet bookmarked our Amazon Japan affiliate link, please do so. We would really appreciate it! It doesn't only apply to items currently listed on the site, but absolutely everything that you may buy.
We do also have an Amazon U.S. affiliate link. Same as above. Even though I don't actively list items from Amazon U.S., anything purchased through the links is helpful. If you would like to bookmark that as well and make your regular Amazon purchases through it, it would be great! As always, we really appreciate the help that we get and hope that we can continue to help you in kind by continuing to offer the services we do at lower prices than most anywhere else! Thank you! -Sam

I currently accept Paypal and, as of mid 2011, I have also begun to receive some payments through Amazon Payments. Not working out and you would rather pay via money order? That can be arranged via a partner in the U.S. Please let me know about this before I move forward with any request as, unless a very small amount of money, the payment must be received before the item(s) can be ordered/shipped.

Yes, you can and I would be very thankful for it! There is a page in the forums that will have up-to-date banners or signature pics. Simply grab what you would like and link it directly to http://dv8CAG.com. If you happen to be in need of a different or specific size image, just let me know in the thread and I will get something posted for you. Last Updated: Sunday, 10 August 2008
