Payment & Tax

-- Payment --

Payment shall be made by a credit or debit card or bank transfer. You can also pay via PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay, or Shop Pay. All payments are made in Japanese yen (JPY). It is the buyer's responsibility to be aware of fluctuations in the exchange rate.

 

 

-- Security --

All credit cards are processed via secure server technology and are subject to validation and authorization by both the card issuer and us. We do not hold onto your card details. This ensures that purchaser maintains a safe and secure payment process.

Depending on your payment status, it may take some time for your payment by credit card to be approved for security reasons. In our shopping system, if a security warning appears on the payment and it is unable to pass the screening, we may not be able to ship the product. In that case, we will try to figure it out but may cancel your order and refund your money if we can not fix the issues.

 

 

-- Tax --

Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company when you pick the item up.

If the item is returned to Japan due to the buyer not paying the import duties, taxes, or charges, then it is the buyer’s responsibility to cover all return shipping costs, fees, and charges. We will only refund the cost of the product and not shipping fees. In some cases, please note that the buyer is responsible for both the shipping cost from Japan to the buyer's country and the return shipping cost from the buyer's country to Japan. Even if the buyer refuses to pay these import duties, taxes, or charges, they might have already been paid for by the shipping company in some rare cases. In such cases, it is the buyer’s responsibility to cover all these import duties, taxes, or charges, even if the item is returned to Japan.
