If it never goes online, I'll go and get it.

I shop twice a week, and there's no travel fee.
Need it by a specific date? That's a JPY 4,000 rush fee.
If it's sold out when I get there, the JPY 3,000 still applies — I'll send you a photo of the shop.
Outside the 23 wards — Kichijoji, Tachikawa, Yokohama — I can't go. I'll look online instead.
