Shop from Japan, ship to you.

tenso Shop from Japan, ship to you.

Some time ago, I introduced you a way to shop from Japan and get what you bought delivered to you. As you may have noticed, most of Japanese online shops do not ship outside Japan. To solve this problem, there are some companies that offer to let you have your Japanese address at their place, receive and inspect what you purchased from any of Japanese online shops, and despatch them to your address in your country.

This time I happened to reach another company that offers the same kind of service in Japan while I was browsing ZOZOTOWN. (ZOZOTOWN is an online mall specialized in popular apparel brands in Japan.)

That’s TENSO.com. Compare the service with other similar companies that I introduced before, and make good use of them. If you understand Japanese, you can fully enjoy shopping from any Japanese online shops with combination of this service. But even if such service is available, it’s also true that most of online shops do not have English pages. That’s the problem. In that sense, either Rakuten or Amazon.co.jp might be the most convenient places for you to shop items from Japan without any problems about language or shipment. But If you are looking for apparel, Marui web channel also allows you to shop in English and international delivery. If you like Japanese traditional art and craft or nice goods made in Japan, Shokunin.com is a good place to shop. The good news is that they now have English and French pages available.

If you don’t really care about the origin of the shop, whether it’s a shop out of Japan or run by non-Japanese people, japan-shop.com is also available as a collection of online stores of Japanese goods. You can shop there in English and get what you bought delivered to your address. (There are some exceptions, according to the shops.) Japan Online Shop is another option where you can browse several stores gathered at one place.

Do you know any other good online shops you may want to share with other readers of this blog?
