I had to get these.. my wallet is RIP 😂 but actually had some cash put on the side just for unforeseen cases like this…
I have found it on Marketplace locally-which is kinda rare for older PCs…:)
Please be happy with me 😂 these are beautiful even tho I already had a couple of them & will keep my duplicates for now.:)
Just wondering….
Supposed to be an offline event signing for The Sound.
I have 1 signed album card from Felix and the signature is pretty similar … also found 1 other signed card online for this and they do look the same…
Thanks
My 2nd credits mall bundle haul that only had 1 item..lol
But its value is the highest I have ever purchased for like 4$ cad 😝 39999 points.
I bought extra points so I could make couple purchases since I didn’t have any after the 1st bundle purchase. So let’s also count the card fee… of like 1$ for this item.
The
Stray kids
Hyunjin Xmas Popup 2024 Hoodie he designed.
I absolutely love it and I can’t believe whoever bought it for value 267$ usd didn’t ship it.
My shipping was around 44-45$ cad with card fees etc. (but with 15% shipping coupon)
Package was 986g.
I chose Ems-F shipping as usual HOWEVER
this package took extra days before it was evaluated for taxes and handling fee of 63$ cad.
I was hoping it would just slip by like some other packages without the taxes etc.
All together with this was around 113$ cad
But it was still worth it!!! (If you check ebay sold prices you’ll understand)
Anyway
I also was unlucky with the final carrier and the replacement mailman was too lazy to bring my package to our house which is right beside the mailboxes lol so I had to go an pick it up in the post office about 8 min drive away.
I am super happy and will be great for autumn and winter.. which is coming 👿
JpFans:
The purchase was smooth from the credits mall but definitely have to count the taxes duties or else because it’s based on the value of the item and not what you paid with the points.
Support sent me a message when my package was transferred to the post office so I don’t forget to pick it up …
I told them I am aware and what happened and was able to pick it up the same day later.
1 extra note: the item listing shows the original packaging of the hoodie.. wish they have kept that when they did the warehouse photos.
Have a wonderful life 💜! (Those who know they know why)

I thought I am going to try credits mall this time around..
Ok so i didn’t have enough points so I bought some. Bundle was 276000 points. Value around 128$. I paid I think 20$ cad the rest was my points.
Since it was my first credits mall bundle I had no idea what I was doing. I asked some questions ok discord before making my purchase.
1- As soon as I bought it was added to my account ready to ship with 14 days storage time. (There were no extra fees)
2 - The rest went just like any other shipping process.
Package was 6.8kg with 22 albums in it so shipping was pretty high. (164$-20%+card payment fees and currency conversion = 151$ cad)
3 - Arrived about 7 days from payment for shipping to Canada.
4 - I always use Ems-f because taxes and handling fee is either charged or not.. depends… but on this one: I got unlucky and had to pay for it. (30$ cad)
With Ems I always have to sign for the package and in Canada it’s Canada post the final delivery carrier. So it’s predictable at what time it arrives since the mail passes the same time each day.
Couple things:
I bought my bundle only like 3 days before they put all bundles to 99% off… mine was only 80%. Which is still good but with 99% I would have had enough points to make this purchase. Stinks a little HOWEVER overall it was still a great value.
👉 Now if you are wondering what credits mall is - simplified:
The way I see it’s items and parcels that someone bought but never shipped for various reasons.
I bought another bundle which I decided not to ship because I couldn’t read the full description and at the end it’s not worth to ship it.
Ok well I bought 2 other bundles and 1 single item which will arrive soon so will do a haul post again. lol
Wish I have enough points to buy more bundles because it’s such a waste for all the great items to be just thrown away at the end.
BUT there is still 1 flaw with the credits mall: can’t combine multiple bundles into one because there are a lot of small bundles with 1 or 2 items that are just not worth shipping costs wise.
BUT as I’ve heard they are working on some type of solutions… yay!
On my photos there are 5 items missing because my daughter took possession of them before I was able to take a photo. 😂 See the images in the comments.
Overall it was another great experience again. (If you know what you can expect there aren’t many surprises)
😅 Fun fact: I actually like the little gamble on paying taxes or not… (I am trying to see/watch for some patterns lol)
Questions? happy to answer….

Since this is my 3rd haul I think we can agree on that I like using JPFans. :)
I will highlight some of the changes that occurred during my shopping journey.
My latest package was pretty big (6.1kg)
and took me almost 40 days to assemble lol - which brings us to the 1st change: from 60 days to 30 days free warehouse storage became effective. My items were still on the 60 days.
Why it took me so long?
Because I like to price check by going to Mercari and look at the sold prices so I know what would be an ideal purchase price and what is overpriced. Then wait until something is listed for a reasonable price.
Obviously with the new 30 days free storage limit this will be a tad bit harder and make decisions faster. Will see how it goes for the next haul..lol
For all my shipping so far I used Ems-f to Canada. It's a hit or miss if you get taxed or not...It took 6 days to arrive plus 5 days from request to pack to ship. Which is a bit more than previously.
I did have to contact in app helpline + in discord channel because not all items in my last order items were in the photos. (See my attached image with the red circles those (and more) were not on my paid photo service photos) so I kinda panicked lol.... However: then they unpacked it all to the last card.. lol.. which was weird haha
Next couple of changes occurred here from last to this shipment:
- new way of showing package size and weight. (I actually don't like this one because there is no photo of the actual weight shown - as it used to) - see uploaded image.
- shipping routes- despite being able to estimate but when it came to actually paying for shipping: certain routes were not available that were shown in the estimator.
There is 1 note here: I do think this time they could have used a bit smaller box to ship my items .. (like 4cm less wide)
Without going into even more details and make this even longer: some changes were good and some are so-so but overall I always find items that even with high shipping it's still costs me less than buying from EBay.
Quick tips for last:
- even tho warehouse photos now cost it is also removing seller's packaging which at the end will save on shipping box size and weight.
- use the contact link to chat with an agent if you have questions. Keep in mind the time zone difference tho.
- do not ship 1 tiny item... it's not worth it
- check item weight when it arrives to warehouse so you can stay within your shipping budget.
- they have a ruler on the photos so you can kinda calculate the item size (good for shipping box size estimate)
- always leave a bit of extra budget for shipping since currently we don't know what box size they will use.
- read their Help section in the app or on site (even tho some things might not be 100% up to date at all times it is a good source for 1st or 2nd timers)
Now... please check my latest haul photos..and press a like hehe.:)
Thank you!

I was browsing Japan mercari and came across this one... it's been sold like 5 months ago, but I am truly baffled as to what the heck is this signature? The description of the item said it was from mwave
I have never seen a member's signature as this
So maybe we should have fun to guess who's supposed to be?
Ps. I am also guessing it's fake? Or not?
So this is my 2nd haul and got only Stray Kids this time(hehe)
It took me almost 2 months to put this together and learned couple new things along the way.
If you are slow and the item sells after you paid- they will cancel the item order and you receive the refund to your JPFans account.
During the 2 month rules have changed and now have to pay for the photos when the items arrive. Which is fine... however there is no added service option to do that after the items arrive arrived so you have no idea what the packaging or the item looks like. So for more expensive items I would suggest to get the quality photo service when you order.
I had no idea the items without quality photo service will ship with original shipping packaging- which adds extra weight to the final parcel. Lesson learned lol
Always leave at least 300g for shipping parcel weight if you are trying stay below a certain weight bracket. This shipment for me fell to the next pricing bracket for shipping by 85g - ouch lol
Agents are still super nice and helpful.
The shipping box is well packed and no wasted space. Took me 2 minutes to unbox because it was well taped.
I'm happy with my haul and even with shipping cost - around 90 with CC fee - and Canada Post's handling fee and tax - 22.22 - all the 13 items I have ordered still costs less than buying here or ebay or elsewhere. Tho most of my items are hard to find around me, so well worth it!
I also had a cute note attached to 2 of my items from the same seller. :)
One thing that worked out for me well especially price wise for kpop items: buying from regular people who just don't want them anymore so they don't inflate the price of the item and they often include the cards too.
In this haul my 2 fave items: the Mini World (the box is much bigger than I thought lol - and the I am You Taiwan edition which was not listed like that and just stumbled upon it. Even after a month was still there so I investigated a bit and took a chance. Was only 18$ cad.. so...:) now need to find the cards that go with it but that's for another haul lol
Happy shopping everyone!

So I got a doll house and this 'doll' came with it.
I know absolutely nothing about this.. I don't even know if it's real or not... this is my first time hearing and seeing about this brand and doll.
Anyone care to share a bit more?
Thanks!
