I'm about to give someone instructions to order some Pillows swag. Since this will benefit the pillows, I want to tell it right. So, here's my set of directions (revisions, please? thnx ):

that's the Busters Shop. It's the official site for pillows swag. I'm not familiar with the process myself, however, this is what I've heard:
The only way to order through there to the USA is to send a International Mail order via your local Post Office. First, e-mail shop@pillows.gr.jp and tell them your order (specific: which stuff, what size, how many, etc.) in SIMPLE ENGLISH. Which is almost formal like this - with apostrophes and other necessary punctuation. Because, likely, they will be directly translating your e-mail into Japanese. Specify which t-shirt by name or description (they used to have special numbers..oh well.) like "Fighter-Girl t-shirt" or "Lo-Fi Boy t-shirt" or "Good Dreams Tour t-shirt".

there's the link for the shirts (if you're really lost..). Then, you might want to total everything, too (in yen). Then, supposedly, they'll send an e-mail back with directions of how much the price is in yen including shipping and stuff and of WHERE to send your International Mail order. Then, head off to your local Post Office, get whatever the heck a International Mail order form/package is and send your money over to Japan. I heard that this process is long, but it's not impossible. Good Luck.

Of course, the alternatives are: to go to Japan, or to wait for another American Tour, or to wait and wait for someone on Amazon.com or Ebay to auction something off.

Also, there are Noodles CDs and the pillows's "90's My Life returns" album available on the official Delicious Label site. Woo-hoo~ its in English, too. With directions on the bottom.

also, are the directions on Delicious Label different than Busters Shop because shipping price is included on DL's site?

addition: to get an international postal money order, they will charge you a small fee (3.25 USD) and i believe you must pay in cash, up to a maximum of $700.

for the delicious label shop, when i ordered i think i mailed them directly without needing to email them for the total price. so yeah.

ill have to try this

Thanks. I'm probably not smart enough to figure this out, even with instructions. I'll probably screw up and accidentally commit international mail fraud. Oh well, I’ll give it a shot. I really don’t need any CD’s anymore, but it would be nice to get some shirts, or the DVDs.

Consequently, if people are still looking for CD’s I’ve been using this place for Japanese imports. [url]http://www.asahiyausa.com/store.html[/url] It’s about an hour from my house, but there are several others around the US. If you’re near one of the stores, call them up. They will order CD’s for you, but you have to go pick them up. I was able to get everything but Pantomime and 90’s My Life from them. I also got some Pizzicato Five and some TMGE from them. If you spend several hundred dollars, than you get a free single! I’m almost there.

I don't know if this is helpful, but if you're in Chicago, La, San Francisco, or New York, it might be.

i have to try this 2. ive always avoided the buster shop but not anymore!

THANX TERRA~ that would be a essential thing to add~

I went to Asahiya in LA and Chicago, they didn't have much on pillows (like random 4 albums and 3 singles). There could be a long wait and they already charge 8 bucks more than the list-price. It's likely easier and cheaper to purchase CDs via Yesasia or CdJapan. There are also the Kinokuniya bookstores. (pretty much the same kind of place)
this was for pillows swag not available in stores. (90's my life, t-shirts)

I though I was saving money by not paying shipping. I could be off though, I never got past remedial math in highschool. They just let me look through their catalog and my CD's come in about a week.

About the buster shop though,

Is there anybody who's done this start to finish who can say exactly how long this took?

Just wondering, how much does it cost per album?

is there any way to get the older swag, i.e. fool on the planet sweater and swanky street shirt? or do you just have to make do with what they show on the site?

For me it took me about a couple of weeks.

It's sad...someone put a hole in my Terminal Heaven's Rock Shirt...

T-shirts can be quite exspensive, I payed almost $40 for mine. After all the shipping and what not.
