How Much Will It Cost?
1) Cost of item.
Calculation method:
(Item Price + Domestic shipping fee + Handling fee 80) NT / 18 x 110% = Payable amount in SGD
[Based on exchange rate of 1 SGD : 18NT. 10% = shopping service fee + cross-border transaction fees. Exchange rate includes bank transfer fees. A handling fee of 80NT is charged per item.]
Handling fees differ for each event, but for CWT, it is generally 80 NT. For doujin goods, it will be 40NT per item. Doujin good sets (2 and more in a set) will incur 60NT per set.
The minimum total handling fees required for the order is 250NT. For orders incurring a handling fee less than this, you will be charged a flat handling fee of 160NT.
For events not announced on the front page, it means there is little interest and you may be required to pay the admission charge and transport to get to the event (which will be equally split among participants)
Requests for the following are not accepted:
2) Shipping to your country
The following methods are available:

Remember to divide the cost by 16 to get the value in SGD. Small amount of packaging and handling fees may be incurred if my contact has to buy packaging material, especially for larger shipments and shipments with fragile items.
You can combine shipping with Ruten / Direct Mail Order items from Taiwan.
