I would buy one, but $18 shipping to Japan is just too much to accept. Is there no Surface or 3rd class shipping option?
From Japan to Australia the cheapest shipping option would be tracked surface air land up to 500g is only $6 I assume it weighs less and would be cheaper.

For small items (stickers, CDs, Candy, Games)  "airmail small packets" is pretty cheap and fast but has no tracking number up 100g is ¥240 
You can see the rates to Oceania, Middle East, North America, Central America and Europe here (sorry I do not know where in the world you are):

As far as gifts for girls, it depends on what she likes.
Plus if she likes a specific character, Hello Kitty etc, I can get almost anything you can imagine from plates and cups to clothes to contact lens cases. Many items are exclusive to the Japanese market.
Please let me know what your girlfriend likes so I can give you a better idea of what is available.

Thanks!

Has Karpeles or anybody else from Gox officially told their story of how 850k coins became unaccounted for? hacked / lost wallet / others?

1) Could you explain how the authorities, namely the US government, having over a million BTC is extremely bullish?

I don't envision this a reality but it can be filed under "could explain bullishness":
http://rt.com/usa/us-postal-service-bitcoin-780/

BTC is a currency, as the U.S. gov has admitted. They can keep seized money and/or spend it:

WTF

What's the difference between criminal and civil forfeiture?
In criminal forfeiture, the taking of property is usually carried out after the owner is convicted of a crime. In civil forfeiture, the government seizes the property — in this case, the currency — without ever charging the person with a crime. The government must show by a preponderance of the evidence that the money is dirty; then it's up to the owner to prove that his cash is clean. To defend the money requires hiring a lawyer, who often charges more than the amount of the seized cash.

So.. the police in America can just say "yoink" and then you have to prove the money is not from a crime?

Doesn't that go against the whole guilty until proven innocent thing?

Not that I should talk. In Japan they can hold you for a maximum of 23 days without charging you. http://www.debito.org/arrestperiods.html

unbelievable that he allowed trading to continue when he knew that the btc coffers were empty, JUST TO LOWER HIS LAST PRICE and cut his liabilities into 1/10th when his company was dissolved.

That is absolutely f'd up.  

The most criminal part was to continue allowing deposits, sucking in millions more from gullible investors seeing cheap $100 coinz.

I seriously considered buying some cheap coins near the end.
Luckily my instincts overpowered my greed.

Paul Buitink @paulbuitink · 2h

According to my source it was the leaking of the crisis doc that ultimately killed the rescue of Gox


no he was doomed when he told the bitcoin foundation that his wallet method or accounting lost the coins
assuming what he says is true...he is an idiot at the head of a corporation that was clueless for years..
so..it is either that or he is an evil genius and will keep his personal fortune via bankruptcy...(ie he really
was that stupid ...therefore blameless in the theft...therefore bankruptcy protection will protect all his
personal assets)

no way that the document circulating killed mtgox....because any document stating he was clueless
enought to lose millions of bitcoins either now or later would have just killed it dead

no one invests in stupid

the sad part is he may have actually been clueless on all this which means by going bankrupt he
will keep any $$$ he cashed out in bitcoin years ago...you can't go after personal assets in
bankruptcy for being stupid and lossing folks btc or $$$ only if your intent was to do harm

so yeah he could walk away in his own unicorn and rainbow universe in a year when this
whole escapade when the bankruptcy shakes out....he will be humilated but likely have
way more money then me yet

the ways of finance.....people at the bottom have no safety nets ...people at the top
have all sorts for the same stupid/destructive behaviors....

anyhow hope i'm wrong ...but likely if he truely was that dumb (likely) he will walk
away from this humilated but still well off

Searing


That is why there was virtually no PR. Anything he said could be used to implicate himself later.
HE knew exactly what was going on but chose a course of action that was best for HIM and HIM only.

Even now the GOX homepage hasn't been updated.
What a blight on bitcoin.
