Save your shipping cost!! We can combine multiple items.
We consider it is especially important that the item is shipped to you securely and speedily. In addition to that, we understand the expensive shipping cost is a pain in the neck. We will combine your multiple auctions and Special Order items together to save your shipping cost.

Shipping request
When your item reaches our warehouse, we will send you an arrival notice. Then, you can request us to ship the item through the "Shipping request" section. Please make a shipping request within 10 days after the arrival. If you do not make a request on time, a storage fee below will be imposed.

Storage fee
If you leave your item for more than 10 days without making a shipping request, you will be charged a $1.00 fee per day on each item. If 30 days have passed without your request, the item will become the property of Japamart and be resold to recover our expenses.
Please note: Large items occupy a lot of space. Please make a shipping request within 3 days or a $1.00 storage fee will be imposed per day on each item.

Shipping method
Please let us know the shipping method you like when you make a shipping request. There are various types of shipping methods available. Please refer to the table below. We strongly recommend you to choose insured shipping methods like EMS. EMS is fast and affordable with insurance and tracking number. Parcels from Japan can be lost, stolen or damaged during the long trip. Please keep in mind that we are not responsible for the item if you choose the shipping method without insurance.

Uninsured shipping methods
#5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 do not have insurance or tracking service. Please keep in mind that a package may be lost or damaged once in a while.

We cannot guarantee in case of loss or breakage if you choose the shipping method without insurance. Under an understanding and an agreement to this, you may choose these shipping methods.

Size & Weight limit
Japanese postal service has a size and weight limitation to send the item. If you want to bid on a heavy or large item such as car parts, you should know the limit in advance. Actually, It varies from country to country. In a general way, the weight limit is 30kg. However, Australia and New Zealand have a strict 20kg limitation. If we cannot send you the item due to the limit, we will use Fedex or other delivery service, and which will certainly cost you a fortune. Please also check the large item section.

Shipping address
If your payment method is Paypal, the shipping information on the Paypal needs to match your address registered with us. We do not ship an item to the address which is different from the Paypal's one to avoid the fraudulent activity.

Insurance
During the long trip from Japan, your item may be damaged. If you choose the insured shipping method, you will get compensation. Please go to your local post office and file a claim for compensation as soon as possible. However, you cannot get reimbursed under the following cases.

1.You chose the shipping method with no insurance.
2. The damage did not occur in transit

Customs and Import Restrictions
You may be subject to import duties and taxes. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. So any additional expense for customs clearance must be borne by you.
Please note that each country has its own restrictions on imported goods. Givent that it is difficult for us to generalize about it, we recommend you to contact your local authorities when further information is required before purchasing items.
