After some agonizing hours of decision making, my friend has finally decided upon the pricing for the items.
It'll be:
2000 Yen as a basic fee, and then
3000 Yen per item purchased, regardless of price.
His reasoning being that he did the last summer's Comiket with 4000 Yen as a flat rate fee before, and that price of the item does not gauge how hard the item's going to be to purchase ( see Snow Miku, Saber Lily).
Keeping in mind that there are a lot of figures with limitations on how many one person can purchase (again, see Snow Miku, Saber Lily), so there's a system of first-come, first serve created. Whoever orders first gets served first.
You will need to pay prior to the day of the WF, as I mentioned before. He's currently only taking remittance or wire to bank payment, because he had some trouble setting up a Paypal account. He'll be trying to set that up eventually, but not so for this WF.
He also wanted to let you know that he keeps a regular tab on releases on frequent rare items from and around Akihabara, so if you have anything in particular you'd like to get, he'll be willing to find it for you for a price :).
On a related news, I managed to blow 65000 Yen on 6 figures, including shipping and fee for the middleman. And all of them are items not part of WF2010! Partly I feel tricked, but on the other hand I feel really happy that I found them, because they are one of those rare, rare figures sculpted by Vispo that got commissioned for completed model. As a consequence I'm not getting anything from WF :).
