Anime Garden!

Behold the ridiculously bipolar prices on anime merchandise that is...

www.animegarden.co.nz

They sell figures (SO EXPENSIVE, WHAT.), manga, anime, apparel, even cosplays! 8D

It's new so there's a sale on right now. The website kinda poorly designed since I swear they just ripped it from MightyApe and the merchandise info is kind of lacking. >_>

But yeah, new online NZ based anime merch store! 8D

Agree. Pictures are small, and there is almost no product info.

They also say the offer reasonable prices. They are the same as anywhere else.

I shall also stick to trademe.

the prices are bad for costumes at least.

You could easily go on ebay and get a costume for $150nz. or better yet ask static.

The figures seem to be retail prices, no better. Nothing like trademe.
So does the anime. The manga seems no better than boarders.
The costumes do seem a bit pricey.

However to their credit they have a large range of stock. That costs money to stock, hence the prices. If I ever did anything like this it would be to stock fast moving products, and be able to short order anything else. That way you can offer a large range, but keep the cost down. And since it is so specialist hopefully people would accept that.

I don't know if it's the site or my internet but it takes an incredibly long time to load.

But woah! It is expensive! T^T

By Cactiberry. 30/05/10, 12:50 pm

Axellin;; It takes ages on my computer too >_>

It's utterly ridiculous, I agree xD

=_= why they charge $650 for a Kanon Ayu jacket i'll never know *shakes fist*

By Zephyr. 30/05/10, 12:53 pm

Long loading time is long.

Anyway holy o.O ridiculous prices.

By Basaka. 30/05/10, 12:57 pm

Oh wow, pics of their warehouse makes me go ;AAAAAAA;

If I need anytihng though, I'll probably use GNC, or direct from vendors in Japan like amiami.

By Hannah. 30/05/10, 01:28 pm

looks at picture WOW $350 for the cosplay
...scrols down PHYSICS
thats just the skirt ???

By Basaka. 30/05/10, 01:51 pm

Lol, not looking at cosplay...

*randomly searches Ga-Rei*

FFFFFFF MUST NOT SPEND MUST NOT

By Rolly. 30/05/10, 02:14 pm

Some figures are quite cheap or reasonable, but some others are OMG SO EXPENSIVE.

Like the Soul Eater Trading Arts were $122 for a random assortment of 6 boxes. That's cheap.

Then you get the higher quality figures...

Website seems to load fast for a while and then slooooow down. Must be new establishing server problems? >w<

By Basaka. 30/05/10, 02:17 pm

Meh, I find some lines to be really reasonable...

Like Nanoha Exceed mode. ~13k yen in Japan, $250 on there. It really depends.

^ This. They have quite a lot of figures... that I want...

By carnione. 31/05/10, 02:46 pm

... hm... is it worth spending $93 on KHR! posters? XP

EDIT: HOLY FLYING SPAGHETTI THEY HAVE KHR! BAGS (totally worth it, my schoolbag is a really uncomfortable convention-show-bag-thing from last year)

EDIT #2: They also have pillow covers... hm... is that too obsessive?
