They usually don't restock on their old items. (I've never seen it happen)
But try your hardest to not shop at ToysnJoys. It may seem super tempting but they have horrible customer service and is known to not send out items.

They don't restock, They restock once for a couple of days and then when thats out, they just take it out, They ran out of Sasword Zecter, got more, ran out, Same with Kabuto Zecter, Although I'm hoping they don't run out of Faiz Drivers and Chalice Rouzers
And NEVER and I repeat NEVER buy from ToysNJoys, They overprice and take a long time to ship, if they even ship it at all

Re-read this one HaiTien78, over and over again! shibbyshoo hit it right on the money...I might also add that they also are known to send the wrong items. A b*tch after waiting months for your order to come in, only to find it's the wrong item.:disappoin OR they list an item as "In Stock" when they really don't have it...
However, if you are a die hard Agito and Kuuga fan, then no matter what the price is, so long as in the end you are happy, then that's all that really matters. Hopefully though, you find what you are looking for elsewhere...:buttrock:

I must disagree with that last statement, no matter how big of a fan of *insert rider here* you are, Its not worth suffering through ToysNJoys, I ordered a Leangle Buckle, it took way too long to get here (4 months), And it only got here when I kept bugging them asking it where it was, They said "Its out of stock", Yet I check the website, Perfectly in stock there, Heres a tip, If somethings not in stock, DON'T SAY IT IS!! *Seals random Undead to get out anger* XD

Toys n joys is simply garbage. If you need rare stuff, use yahoo Japan. I use www.crescent-shop.com for the deputy. Coz they have automatic bidding system. So you can bid at last minute. Others deputy charge more fee and don't have real time system. I just made a major purchase over yahoo Japan.
Here's what I purchase from them, price here are final price for the product (deputy fee, domestic Japan shipping, bank fee included) and all are brand new:
DX Perfect Zecter 7122 yen or $65.00
Drake Zecter 4050 yen or $37.00
DX Den-o Belt + DX Dengasher 8,000 yen or $73.00
DX Gatack Zecter 4280 yen or $38.00
Sasword Zecter 4670 yen or $42.45
DX Hyper Zecter 8000 yen or $73.00
Not bad eh? At least I got Perfect Zecter & Gatack for a bargain. The only bad thing is the DX Hyper Zecter, but the damn bug is rare. And I need to hold it while I'm sleeping. Their shipping table are copy from HLJ. So they don't take much out of shipping.
If you want to give it a shot, open these following page on multiple browser:
http://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/
http://babelfish.altavista.com/
http://www.wikipedia.org
You go to wiki, find the katakana and kanji of the Kamen Rider you like, copy paste to the search box of Yahoo JP. Then add like "DX" word.
Example: Looking for Faiz Driver? Paste this on the auction: DX ファイズ (DX FAIZ) or 仮面ライダー555 (KAMEN RIDER 555) then find auction that shows the picture of Faiz Driver. Then you can narrow your search by copy and paste the words from the auction title of Faiz Driver, which is DX ファイズ ドライバー (DX FAIZ DRIVER). Ofcourse there's plenty of other easier way to search, but I usually do this. Brings me ease in mind.
After that, you can use babelfish to translate and see if its brand new (usually translated as not opening item / not opened). Then voila, just make purchase with crescent-shop and wait approx 2 - 3 weeks. You will be happy as hell and it cost fairly good. Hope this helps you all. Coz up until know, I can still find rare stuff for a good price at yahoo japan.
Oh yeah, yahoo JP also have "buy it now feature". The way to quickly see whether an auction have "buy it now" on the search page, is just by looking below the auction title. You notice that the current price of the auction is located on the right pararrell to the title. The "buy it now" is located just directly below the title.

Well there are 2 problems, Do you really know if they ship to america, and 2, I'm 14, My parents don't know japanese (Neither do I more then a few words, But I don't know the characters) therefore I can't buy from there

Ofcourse they ship to USA. I got my rare stuff from them, delivered directly to my door. All I can say is that you or your parents need to go to the crescent-shop website and read all the procedure first. The crescent-shop staff and menu are all in English. You don't need to know Japanese language to purchase or asking a questions, as you only copy and paste links.
Try to read first how they do things. Don't just give up yet. I usually shop at HLJ or Japan-toys, it's not too hassle but when they run out of stocks and when ebay don't have it too, Yahoo Japan is my only backup plan. And so far I did find anything that I wanted, there.

I was talking about yahoo japan is in japanese, I've never heard of the other place so I don't have enough info to buy from there yet.
HLJ never seems to load on my computer, But Japan-Toys.com is where I buy all my Toku stuff,

LMAO!!! You have a point there RiderLeangle...especially with TNJ. I mean, first you gotta suffer through the insane prices and THEN through the wait, and THEN through unanswered emails, or answered ones that tell you nothing, and THEN have them ship the wrong item to you...:redface2:
TNJ *could* actually be a good place, IF they got their sh*t together...
Take care and Henshin safely:buttrock:
