This happened right after I got my Hisui figurine. In my Hisui frenzy, I got information that there was a Hisui towel as well…

.:05.22:.:02:14:41:. <@natsu|hisui_figurine_GET> A TOWEL IS FINE TOO
.:05.22:.:02:19:18:. <@natsu|hisui_figurine_GET> WHERE IS IT
.:05.25:.:16:17:54:. <@nekosasu> I WANT THAT TOWEL FFS

…ad nauseum.

After three months of checking up Yahoo Auctions Japan several times a week and caps locking my frustration in IRC, I finally found what I had been searching for.

Two days ago I checked up on YJ with few hope of getting any hit on my query. But it’s just when you start losing hope that miracles happen! Yes, someone was finally selling their Hisui Moe Moe Bathtowel!!!1one
In a second, I went over to Rinkya to create an account and bid for this obviously rare goodie. And then began two days of patient waiting, constant F5 hammering and what-not, for fear of having some other Hisui freak outbidding me.
Today I went to bed quite late and I didn’t feel like waking up at noon, but I told myself I had to check on the auction to see if nobody outbid me. And guess what, someone actually did! From the originally 10000 yen I had to raise to 16500 yen to finally take the upper hand. Glad I woke up, 3 hours later and I’d have lost it… Yeah, until the end I refreshed the page like once a minute, and then BOOM I won the auction and it was FIESTAAAAAA here at neko’s XD

MOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hahaha I am such a freak. For Hisui, of course. I wish I could have avoided the outbidding, would have been a bit cheaper for me, but hey it’s still much cheaper than its original price (Tsukihime Correspondence Vol.3 plus the Hisui Moe Moe Bathtowel cost around 26k yen) so I’m fine with it. In the end, it’ll cost me about $200 with shipping and fees. Some might say that it’s a bit too expensive for a towel, but hey it’s a rarity, and I was willing to pay the price anyway ^^ MOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE XD

Now… I got to wait until it arrives here… Argh patience………………. nuuuu Hisuiiiiii where art thouuuu—– T_T
