It's been a while, let's have a daki thread shall we?

Post your last acquisition and daki related question here.

And speaking of question, for those who own multiple daki, do you put all of them on your bed or do you rotate from time to time?

No new acquisitions recently because my funds are starting to dry up. ;_;

I have two pillows, but I never really rotate the covers on them. Even as my collection has grown, I'm really afraid of using one and ruining it entirely, as some of them were pretty rate and difficult to get.

I put them all on my bed, but 3 seems to be its capacity limit sadly. Even though I have a 4th, its just too hard to not knock one onto the floor then and I have no room for myself. I really love sleeping with two between me though, its super comfy and feels like heaven.

I have two pillows but usually just sleep with Chitoge because I have small bed and she's beautiful. Just started ADP's "daki in a box" subscription, that's where I got Haruhi.

>>12455779
I have one of those. But I also bought more expensive stuffing from the same places I bought my covers from in Japan (that weren't amiami). They turned out to be much softer (and still are) and made that one feel firm in comparison. However, they wore fairly fast and the stuffing on the lower portion of them is all crumpled apart. I think some of the stuffing in the lower part also redistributed into the upper part for one of them because it feels way thicker than the others in the upper portion.

Not doing those things is an easy way to shorten the lifespan of your cover. Covers will eventually deteriorate, but keeping your hygiene in check will keep it in better condition. Shaving applies if you have significant facial hair.

Cutting your fingernails will prevent you from snagging the cover and ripping the fabric. Body hair is coarse and can do the same when rubbing against the cover. Showering keeps body oils off the cover and prevents color fading.

Cute yuri 2hus are the best 2hus. Hello, newfag here.
Looks like pic related was available again for preorder:
http://www.toranoana.jp/mailorder/article/04/0030/23/03/040030230300.html

I was a bit late to be wallet raped though. There's a "please put it up for sale again" button, just above the Twitter one. Maybe the store won't give a damn, but would you mind clicking it? Enough requests may grant additional order time.

On a side note, in the lucky event it goes up for sale again, any proxy recommendation? (read: not banned by Toranoana). Will JSS work?

It has its good and bad.

I can bring it for traveling easily especially when I had to stay in another town, the hardness is adjustable but this thing stores static charge when you put on the covers or when the night is dry - you can see your daki sparkling in blue light at night and makes me want a Misaka biribiri cover.

It also has a place to insert onahole.

Yeah, it's nothing fancy. Zip inside, suck out air with vacuum, unzip to inflate. Makes it great for transporting in a cardboard box.

And I'm sorry to say that, but there's actually 0 Alda daki ever created so if you really want one you should probably commission a drawing.

Though if you don't want to, and still prefer using one of your pictures, you need a picture at 1417x4252 MINIMUM and 100 dpi.

You could use this picture for example

Daki covers are doujin items, so they're often sold exclusively at events. They're produced in small quantities and usually never get reprints. Only a few circles offer mailorder, and an even smaller number of those ship and sell to foreigners. Unlike doujinshi and other hobby items, dakis have to unopened for them to be valuable on the secondhand market, which constricts the supply even further.

I would not pay more than like $10 for a peach skin cover, ever. It's kind of misleading to suggest there's a "good" price for one.

So I've been wondering. The stuffing of my pillow has been getting a bit deflated after a few years of use, is it worth pulling out all the old stuffing, washing it and buying some new stuffing from somewhere local? Can you even buy just good quality pillow stuffing without a pillow from anywhere? I'd rather not import a new pillow obviously because of the shipping costs and not enough room for 2 pillows in my bed but I suppose I could if it's the only option.

I work in camp for two weeks on and a week off, what's this shit about an air pillow? I fucking need that, having to carry around a too small pillow is both taking up too much space and fucking horse shit. That said at home I have one of my waifu and another of my daughteru (non lewd of course) and both are on my bed, at camp I have a too small, too firm pillow with my waifus covering it works I guess.
