Shipping times depend on what option you choose. Japanese post has a few options, surface mail being the slowest of those and they do not guarantee any delivery times. A month or 3 is the general.
I'm currently in Japan and I can tell you now the best way to do things is find someone in Japan send them money and get them to send the books to you. I currently buy manga books for about 4 groups using this arrangement, they paypal me money I go to Book Off or K Books. Buy the manga and send it using the option above surface mail, still cheap but faster.
I can end up buying and sending books for as little as £3-£4 per volume. Bargain.

http://www.aclimatesolution.com/ (I know this site looks like it doesn't carry much but if you send them an email asking for what you want they will usually find it for you no problem)
I have dealt with both and they are very good companies. Both allow you to make special requests to find manga they don't have listed on their site.

And in response: I see them at conventions all the time. It isn't a huge section but it exists.

I've ordered massive amounts of manga from Japan. Mostly I use Amazon and YesAsia. Both are great sites.
