I’m looking for online stores that sell anime merchandise [calendars, figures etc.] and that don’t sell bootlegs, and that ship to the United States.
Thank you ^-^
Sorry if there is already a topic for this, I didn’t see one…

Ok but first you must realize that all of the major retailiers online will also be selling some hentai so you have to prepared for that.
That said the ones most people use here are:
1.Animenation
2.Robert's Corner Anime Store aka The Anime Corner Store
3.Rightstuf
If you ask most people get their anime merchandise from one of those.

http://akadotretail.com is a good online store, and luckily the hentai and yaoi sections are clearly labelled on the site. Also,
http://www.animegamersusa.com/ is a fairly good place to browse, though they cater mainly to Broccoli series.

Although I haven't done any business with them, JBOX.com has a lot of neat and harder-to-find merchandise. They aren't exclusively anime-oriented, though ~ they have a ton of random Japanese stuff.

You might also want to look at some of the distributor websites. Some of the most popular are:
http://advfilms.com
http://bandai-ent.com
http://zstore.com (FUNimation's online store)
Obviously you'll only have access to that particular distributor's titles going that route. But on the positive side, you don't have to worry about bootlegs, and sometimes you can get some incredible deals. (ADV, for example, has a GREAT sale going on right now. They run sells like this every so often.)

I think most online retailers will in fact label their hentai sections as such or as Adult.They would have to or else they could get in trouble for selling adult material to minors.
btw:I ordered the Rightstuf print catalogue back in late September and it still hasn't arrived yet.

http://www.dvdplanet.com has a good anime section, no merchandise though.
