Yes, that's a new Pokemon!

$107 for shipping!? I, myself, would like a reasonable explanation as to WHY the shipping is SO much. Despite what it is, that alone makes me wary to buying it.

Ouch, that hurts man... But it's a really nice item you got there, congrats! I hope it gets to you in good condition. I just bought tickets to Heidenfest 2011 in The Netherlands and an exam practice guide for economics. |

Awww, the quote feature doesn't work on my new computer. Oh well. Quotation marks suit me just fine. "$107 for shipping!? I, myself, would like a reasonable explanation as to WHY the shipping is SO much. Despite what it is, that alone makes me wary to buying it." I know, right? I can't imagine it being very heavy. I sent a GoF member in another country a package that weighed several pounds, and it was sent expedited, and the shipping cost was much lower. Mm, maybe the economy is worse in that state? Ouch, that hurts man... But it's a really nice item you got there, congrats! I hope it gets to you in good condition. Thank you, and I share your hope.

Well let's see, I bought me the first season of MLP:FiM on iTunes, the Tomb Raider Trilogy, the first 3 Tomb Raider games on PS1, Tomb Raider: Legend on PS2, Tomb Raider: Anniversary on PS2, a few books by Stephen King and Michael Crichton, an HDMI cable for the PS3, 30 Seconds to Mars' album This is War, and a very comfortable pillow. Sounds like a lot, but I'm an amazing money saver. |

I just bought a book entitled "The Age of Confucian Rule: The Song Transformation of China" by Dieter Kuhn. I am planning on researching the Song Dynasty soon, and figured this a good place to start. Hoping to get some maps on the layouts of ancient Kaifeng and Hangzhou, the two capitals of the Song Dynasty respectively, as there is a chapter in this book dealing with their capital cities. |

The shipping for that item may seem unreasonable, but you'd be surprised how expensive it is to ship a large object like that. Weight is only part of the equation. As for things I've purchased lately, nothing very exciting. A DVD drive for a laptop I got in a trade-in for free. For only $27.89 (the cost of the DVD drive) I got an awesome dual core Gateway laptop with 4GB of ram and a 250GB hard drive. Not a bad deal if I do say so myself. Oh, and I also got a $14 keyboard for an older dual core Toshiba laptop that I paid $75 for. As I said, not very exciting. |

4 cute-and-cuddly Pokemon plushies (Lugia, Shadow Lugia, Giratina, and Arceus); a reasonably realistic vampire bat plushy; Stitch! The Movie (for the second time!); and the book Tracking the Chupacabra by Benjamin Radford (it's a good read so far). |

Yes, that's a new Pokemon!

I recently bought the movie "Soul Surfer" and the latest DS game, "Kirby Mass Attack". I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy both.

I just bought me a nice pair of Bose IE2 audio headphones and ordered me the Kindle 3G (with special offers ). The headphones are amazing at what they do! And I can't wait for my Kindle. These will be my last big purchases for the remainder of this year. Got to save for Christmas.
