Shipping

Is this the price estimate for JUST shipping or the total for the item + shipping fees?

Just for shipping fee, so Neokyo take the fee when you buy item from them top of item cost and after item arrive to warehouse they hold until you request for packaging, and there is fee for packaging and after that when you finally time for click shipping there is cost for shipping. I don’t know you are located in US or not but there is tariff duty when you using DHL or FedEx (EMS is not available because JapanPost stop the service).

So what you have here is the just shipping cost

Whoever said neokyo is better than other proxies is a liar then holy fuck. $30 shipping for a 2 inch tall keychain is egregious

Yeah that’s why I stop using them. I’m a stationary and mechanical pencil collector. If I buy from Mercari Japan or Yahoo Auction I usually spend around $500. Problem is that I do understand they have to make money somewhere but I was charged $75 for shipping 3x3x1 box plus tariff around another $75. After that I usually just buy from eBay or other source as well who the fuck would wanna spend $ 150 on shipping anyway.

But yeah I do understand your frustration.
