Hi everyone! I would like to know if any of you ever made business with HLJ and if your experience with them went well(shipping, communication, item well packaged..) ? I saw an item on their website I would like to order but since I don't know them....  Thanks!!  |

And a few SWTFs. | Extremely reliable, I've ordered the whole of Galaxy Force through there as well as a good number of other items. If you preorder multiple items, make sure you don't preorder two items with vastly different release dates. They'll wait for the later release but won't always keep the earlier in stock.
You can get around that, though, by asking them to "ship all available items now", that usually works.
Packaging is great, incidentally. Very well packed, everything I've had from them EMS or SAL has always arrived perfectly. Quote: |

Cool choice but be aware that the shipping for that huge set is going to be very expensive. | |

He's one of my favourite Brave robots (don't I say that about all of them?), very nice toys alone or combined. Quote: |

without any notification.
For instock items, they're good enough.
I guess.
Out of the 4 or 5 times i did buy something from them, the packaging wasn't that great. | |
