Payment Information |
| Methods of Payment : We accept a number of payment methods to make the shopping experience from Japan to international customers faster, easier and cheaper. |
|
Paypal We accept Paypal payments in US Dollars only. Please do not send payments in any other currency including Japanese Yen. We will accept only verified and confirmed US and UK paypal users. For other countries, it cannot be confirmed, so non confirmed accounts are acceptable. But they must be verified.
Payments for paypal are accepted only from single user and single addresses. We do not accept payments from two accounts like your own and another account of your mom, dad, husband, wife and or brother accounts. The address on your paypal account must match the shipping address for your order. We will ship ONLY to your address on paypal. We will not ship to your office, parents, wife or any other address. There is absolutely no exception to this rule. We follow this policy for the protection of our customers and ourselves. We will let you know about our paypal account address once you fill the sign up form for our Yahoo Japan Auction services .
Credit Card Payment Using Paypal: Yes, you can use your credit card to make payments through Paypal. If you are a member of Paypal, you know what to do. If you are not, then please check out www.paypal.com Once you sign up with Paypal and register and confirm your credit card information, you can use your Paypal account to pay Mail Order Japan for subsequent orders without typing your credit card information each time you order. Paypal is supposedly the biggest online transaction processing company. They are owned by www.ebay.com. According to them, they have over 78 million users.

International Money Orders: Please contact us if you are planning on sending an IPMO. We accept IPMOs from a number of countries.
Money Orders from USA :We accept United States Postal Service International Money Orders (IMO). You can get them from your local post office. They are fast, cheap (cost only $3.25) and does not cost us anything. The IPMO is pink/red in color (the regular US domestic one is green). Please send the pink/red one ONLY. The green one is useless here and cannot be used.
Once you get the IPMO from the Post Office, send it as a registered mail yourself. If the US Post Office sends it for you, it will take longer because they will send the IPMO to a central location for more paper work.
Money Orders from Canada:International postal money order - Yen transfers only. Please tell your local post office that you want to send the international postal money order to Japan .
Europe and Other countries:We accept International Money Orders and Eurogiro from all other countries. You may send us whichever is more convenient to you. All money orders must be in US Dollars or Japanese Yen. Please have a look for Dollar Exchange rate here. (Please create an empty page for this purpose?

Eurogiro for Europe and other member countries:Eurogiro is also very reliable and faster and a number of our customers from EU use them. Just a single Eurogiro search on google will get you all the information or just go to www.eurogiro.com. Once you are ready, just send us and email and we will give you our address and other needed info.
For more information, ask your local Post Office or any other Eurogiro agency in your country to make the payment in Japanese Yen. Please transfer the amount only after you receive an email from us that will show you the grand total including the item price and shipping and handling.
|
CASH:We also accept US Dollars and Euros in cash. We do not encourage cash, but on many occasions we do accept it. For your own protection, hide the currency in an envelope and send it ONLY by registered mail. We will not be responsible for any lost letters with cash under any circumstances. You are sending cash at your own risk.
|
Warning: Personal Checks and Bank Drafts:Money orders from banks or private cash services WILL be returned because it is impossible for us to cash them in Japan . Personal checks aren't used in Japan at all. Our Bank takes at least 15 days to process the check or bank draft from you and costs between $25-$40. Please no personal checks and bank drafts under any circumstances. They are extremely inconvenient and cause unnecessary delay in processing your orders. Go to your Local Post Office and order an International Postal Money Order (IPMO) in US Dollars or Japanese Yen. This is extremely important.
|
Bank Transfers: Some customers prefer to send their paymnets via bank transfer only. In that case, please contact us and we will give you the necessary bank payment info. Keep in mind that our bank charges from $25 to $40 depending on your location. You will be responsible for that fee.
For some of our car parts customers, we require them to make their payments only by bank transfer. These are usually large payments and they are paid for large and heavy items that cannot be shipped by the regular post office. Please look at our car parts section for Yahoo Japan Auctions. |

Why is the foreign exchange rate different from what I see in the newspaper?
Foreign exchange rates displayed and used for your International Transaction will differ from the rates that you may see in the newspaper, on the Internet, or on television. Published foreign exchange rates are often the interbank rates, which banks charge each other for transactions valued at $1,000,000.00 or more.
Please do not make the currency conversion yourself using any of the online currency converters or the rates seen on TV/Newspapers. We have to use paypal foreign exchange rate minus 1.5 yen per currency unit. This rate is still subject to change if the foreign exchange market is very unstable. |
