I no longer want the North Italy and France café badges.

If you are happy with it, please confirm your order.
After confirming, please refrain from backing out as these are for serious claims only - so please let me know if you'd like to adjust anything else or add a price/spending limit before confirmation :)
no subject
If it's possible, I'd like the China, Japan and England coasters.
If that's not possible, I wouldn't mind the badges of them. And the clearfile too.
Thanks! :)

I've put you down for the coasters anyways but I wasn't sure if I should do so with the badges/clearfile? Let me know if you want to adjust/cancel your claim :)
no subject
If not, then the badges are fine as well. So I don't know how you want to put me down in the post :p
And yes, I'd like the clearfile too :)
Thanks very much!

I've added you down for one of the mascots - due to the popularity I can only do one per person and no multiples/claims on behalf of friends. Please let me know if you want to adjust/cancel your claim :)

1) Due to popularity, it looks like the mascots are limited to 3 per person at the cafe. That means my friend will not be able to obtain any spare sets (as she will be claiming one for herself, one for her friend and one for me).
2) That means: Auctions.
To fill any claims, I will have to go through auctions for them. However, please note that the auction prices are looking rather high. Today is the first day so from here on it could get higher and a slim chance of it getting lower.
There are currently two auctions, one ends later tonight and is currently has a bid at 4,600 Yen and another ends in a few days with a current bid at 3,100 yen. At this point it is likely no mascot sets would be under 4000 as auction bids rise towards the end of the listing.
But please note that the auction bid price will not be the final price as there will need to be fees/shipping added on. To get a rough idea of the total price after fees, a general rule of thumb is to times the auction ending price by 2 (i.e. 4600 x 2 = 9200, and then make a 1:1 conversion from Yen to USD, making that a /rough/ estimated total of $92 - it could turn to be less, but I cannot be sure as I do not know how much the Japanese auction seller will charge for fees).
3) So please confirm your interest/price limit for auctions if you are still interested in obtaining a mascot. Or if the price is too high or would prefer to find the mascots yourself, please let me know and I will take you off the list.
4) For those still interested, please let me know your max /bidding/ limit (this does not include any fees/shipping etc). A deposit will be required depending on your limit.
Due to the nature of auctions, I cannot guarantee any certain items or prices and can only try my best. Instead of giving claims on a first claim first serve basis, I will work my way through the list in accordance to the bidding limit people set and what I win the auction price at.
Let me know what you decide - there's no issue if the price is too high and you would like to revoke a claim. Just let me know ASAP so I can keep an eye out on auctions for those who are interested.
I apologise for the inconvenience, but restrictions were placed and now we just have to adjust to it u_u;;;
For all other claims, my friend has yet gone to the cafe so please wait for an update on them.
Thank you for your interest :)

I would assume CDs would count as flats, but I will have to double check at the post office (as I'd be packaging the CD securely so it might bulk up a bit). I'll drop by today with a regular CD to find out and let you know :)
May I know your shipping destination?
