Is Yesasia a reliable website? I've always ordered either from Kimchi or Nova, have you had a positive experience with this retailer?

Yes, I've bought many things from them over the years. They ship "free" but raise their prices to basically cover the shipping cost. I've never had any problems with them.

One of the best things about them is sometimes you can pick up some things from them that are out of stock elsewhere.

And I did just that with the La La Land white full slip, thanks for the tip!

Glad to help. That's the one I picked up from them the first time it was sold out at Kimchi and Nova.

Edit: And they're gone, except for the big one.

Reliable, yes.
But often they use terrible packaging.

Some years ago I ordered Xenoblade Chronicles OST from them and half of the case was broken. They then made me choose between sending it back (!) to Asia or accepting some $5 coupon.

Now I finally managed to get myself 4-CD jewel cases, so that I was able to replace the broken case. It's actually a nightmare to get such a clear Quad-CD case. Took me years. The ones that are sold most of the time are not clear

I can't say I recall their packaging. I do know I've never had a damaged shipments from them.

I guess I'll see what my La La Land comes in.

My goodness this is beautiful. Thanks for sharing pics. How much was this? Any chance it comes back in stock?

Sub Total - $77.99
Shipping & Handling - $14.30
Total Amount - $92.29

That was through Kimchidvd. I doubt it will come back in stock again. It's sold out everywhere.

I received my full slip. It came in a plastic bag instead of a box, but with more than sufficient bubble wrap. Not as much as Manta, Blufans, Kimchi etc. (which is arguably overkill) but really, more than sufficient protection.

Glad that it arrived in proper condition.

There is never enough bubble wrap
No, seriously. My OldBoy Limited Deluxe Box from a Korean eBay seller came with SOOOO many bubble wrap, but I'm glad that it did, because parcels are not always handled with care and I prefer that over a damaged item. Same for 1-click boxes. Those are way too limited and way too pricey to risk them getting damaged.

I think my Xenoblade soundtrack also came in such a plastic bag with some bubble wrap, but the jewel case still got broken.
