Anyone know some cool smaller things from Japan?

Have a relative coming for Dec 23-Jan 6th...My wife's family always want to know what we want for Christmas to send here. Being postage is a rape coming from Japan, they would like to include the gifts with our niece.

I really want a S15 Steering wheel and the S14 folding mirrors for my car and not have to deal with ebay again on these as the last I got were nothing like the pictures.

Looking for some neat things that are hard to find to order from the states.

wieners...... that is your definition of "neat" and what you "prefer" haha

huh? 😕

Rice is cheap here unless you are trying to get it at a non-asian market.

Looking for small cool things, t-shirts, trinkets/toys, etc. Something different than you can get here.

I suppose if you have no experience with Japan this is not a thread for you. Much of their items I can get here.

Mari would probably be one of the few Morning Musume chicks I'd go for in real life. The older one that's married is also attractive to me. Not so kid like...

What's messed up is this chick was 22 and because she had a boyfriend had to leave the group because it was looked at like a scandal.

 
older one's that married? nakazawa yuko? she's 34 but not married. or are you talking about ishiguro aya?

are you're talking about fujimoto miki's scandal from may of this year? it didn't look like a scandal, it was a scandal. she admitted to seeing the guy on a weekly radio show and was unapologetic and unremorseful. she even beat mari's record for shortest time as leader. heh.

oh wait, you were still talking about mari? her scandal was even worse, she was basically spending nights and living at his home.

what's interesting to see is that mari gets away with her scandal and gets to be a variety/tv personality while it looks like miki is getting the complete opposite treatment with no more singles, no more concert appearances, and no more radio show.

😕 Do you have trading cards or something to keep track of all these members/fmr members in this group?
 
Search in Japan for anything:

http://www.alibaba.com/


Personally prefer the Chinese offerings, they are making some interesting autos. Massive global marketplace, no clue if they offer bulk beef. Try a search, no country restriction, for MP4.

New today on the site:

!768,412 new selling leads, 46,249 new products and 2,490 new companies added today in over 200 countries!
 
I know of alibaba...I don't have a problem finding things and usually getting them here. I was looking for specific things that we don't hear about here in the states.

Like the hot items for the season and the like.

He has to keep track of all of them....

I know a guy who loves it as well. He has over 2 500 gig HDDs of content. He has posters, he has bla bla bla. He goes to sleep every night listening to episodes. If he stops engaging himself in the content, he gets depressed (I swear to God on this). He claims to have learned so much Japanese on the basis that he watches these things all the time. He doesn't have the patience to watch translated episodes, so he gets them RAW to get the content faster - I don't know if if he really does...but I'm sure that if he know some before then this always helps. And it always seems something new - there is sooo much "Hello" content out there...and thank God I say away 😉

Soooooooo yeaaahhhhh...I just hope UhOhs isn't like that - but I would not be suprised either

What's the limit? I would feel bad if relatives wanted to bring me a gift and I asked for some expensive item, which will probably be the case because most exclusive items are not cheap.
