    I'm guessing this is the film you are interested in but not sure which version out of the listings is the one you want.

    Yeah that's what I do too lol
    Took me ages to find Cotton Reboot on there...still need to order it though lol

    Yeah those are the titles thanks

    I don't know exactly what it is you're looking for, but here's the first page of results I get for "a better tomorrow" - link.
    Thanks for the info I'll make sure I've set that next time I pop on there

    It's 6300+ yen though! So it's far cheaper to get it from YesAsia.
    I had seen it on there but the only new copy was 10,000 yen!! (the 6300 is a used copy)...definitely going with Yesasia

    Thanks again

      I'm wondering if it's a sign of the times but went to put the order through today & there is no option for UK in the shipping drop down box

      Also USA is noticeable by its absence

      Looks like I won't be getting this after all now then

        Just in case anyone is interested I had a reply back from Playasia overnight & Seems they have removed the UK for the time being due to post issues but they will resume as soon as normal Postal services to the UK are resumed...bums!

          Probably implementing the new VAT system we've demanded...

            Not sure I know post service from JPN is suspended because of the COVID rules so might just be that to be fair

              I just checked Japan posts website mail to the uk is still running obviously with delays but it isn't suspended. The only services suspended are SAL everything else is running.


              USA been suspended is because of a new terrorism/drug law thats just come in to do with handwritten labels on parcels it now has to be done electronically so the data is recorded or something like that.

                Dear Valued Customer,

                Greetings from YesAsia.com!


                Due to limited shipping service from shipping agents worldwide, we had temporarily revised our list of shipping destination. We apologize for the inconvenience caused if we are unable to include your country at the moment.

                Should you have any further inquiry, please kindly refer to our Help Section for further assistance.

                  Is yesasia based in japan or hong kong? maybe it's a china/hongkong thing. Still sucks though that you can't get what you wanted, hopefully they lift the restriction in the near future.

                    Think it's HK, completely forgotten about this company, not used them since the PSP days. Just had a look and their website looks like it hasn't been changed since then either.

                      [MENTION=6966]Anpanman[/MENTION] might be right about it being HK based
                      One of the sites I use for my Hot Toys figures is Hong Kong based & have a big notice on their homepage saying that all shipping services including EMS are suspended to the UK & any orders need to be through FEDEX only

                      Also you're right the website has never been changed lol

                        YA is definitely HK based, and yes shipping from HK is mega screwed up right now, it’s stopped my partner from getting her contact lenses as they always come via EMS from there. It’s a pain!

                            I haven't used YesAsia in over a decade.

                            Just logged back on to it to try and pre-order the Naruhodo Legends (Ace Attorney) boxset for Switch (seemingly sold-out everywhere else), only to find that YesAsia don't ship to UK anymore.

                            Fvck's sake.

                              Looks like YesAsia are shipping to the UK again.

                              Just logged on and found that it was a selectable option.
