That sounds about right. It may be a little more since they base thier shipping on 1 cd so when you order a box it is a little bit more. I have the statement in my mailbox at home. I thought about getting it from you guys but I did not know if you were going to be getting some of these. I know last time you got stuck with a few SNK DVD sets.
Yeah, the problem with the SNK DVD sets was that Famitsuu Video didn't give them full distribution thru normal retail outlets (like Hoteiya Las Vegas' supplier, Hoteiya). Instead they were primarily available only thru a couple of Japanese websites (famitsuu, enterbrain, sonyplaystation, etc).
The KOF CD box, however, is going thru normal retail distribution, so
Hoteiya Las Vegas is taking orders for this one. Currently, the yen:dollar rate has our shop pricing this box at $163.58 -- but if the dollar can crest the $1 = 110 yen mark in March (let's hear it for Japan's "heightened level of terror alert"), we'll be able to offer this item for $155.40. USPS shipping (w/insurance + delivery confirmation) from Las Vegas to anywhere in the country should be about $15.00 for this box set.

BTW you making it to Akon this year. Do not forgot my Con is coming up in OCt as well. you can fly fairly cheap on contiental and the hotel is on airport property
Yep, we do plan to attend A-kon this year. I still don't know if I'll be able to make it to Oni-Con (whether as a vendor or attendee), as my vacation time here at the Courthouse is stretched pretty thin this year just trying to get the time off to get Hoteiya Las Vegas' booth to some of our "must-do" conventions (Expo, A-kon, Otakon, etc). I'll have to see how things shape up later in the year.
