vanivani 558 Posted July 28, 2015 Sorry.. another question. I've heard PureSound delivers overseas...but how do I contact them? I can't find their email on their website lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Kinma 960 Posted July 28, 2015 I think it's this one : [email protected] But you does know they don't take paypal. They say they sent an invoice payment by mail (Personnaly I try to buy one time from them, they say that they send the invoice and because I don't want pay they don't want make my order, but I never receive their e-mail invoice....) 1 vanivani reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kiryu999 3336 Posted August 20, 2015 I also have questions about puresound, I wanted to know what shipping service they use? And also how do you pay them since they don't accept Paypal ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrenGun 2261 Posted August 20, 2015 puresound = EMS only. and you need a CREDIT CARD. best is to use a shopping service or to ask a japanese friend to order via puresound. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiryu999 3336 Posted August 20, 2015 Ugh why EMS >_> okay thank you for the answers One last quick question, on some items there is 3 different prices and i don't get what the 3rd price (付属品無) is ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost 2687 Posted August 20, 2015 I think that means either the obi is missing or, if it was a special version with photocards, stickers, an outer case etc., it's missing some things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lestat 2167 Posted August 20, 2015 Very often when I bought a second-hand item from Puresound (the second option), I got a brand new copy, so at least that's cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiryu999 3336 Posted August 20, 2015 Oh okay I see, thanks everyone for the informations Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanivani 558 Posted August 28, 2015 For anyone curious about ordering from PureSound: I wrote to them in Japanese and gave them all my info and which items I wanted to buy. They replied quickly. They didn't have new copies of what I wanted, but informed me about used copies they had and asked if that was alright. They were very polite and communicated well with me. Once I paid, they shipped the order quickly, and it arrived quickly. Everything was wrapped very well in bubble wrap and the used CDs were in good condition and came with obis. Highly recommend ordering from them! 1 Kiryu999 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eiheartx 1310 Posted January 1, 2016 I will share my experience with Play-Asia. If you search well, you can find some VK stuff, sometimes even out of print stuff with a good price!It was my first order ever, so I was a bit hesitant: my order was quite small (2 cds), just in case something wrong happen.When they say "in stock, usually ship within 24h" they're not even kidding: my cds were both in stock and was sent the next day without delay! For the shipping methode, you can use AirMail, FedEx, FedEx Economy, FedEx Economy D&T, UPS and EMS Speedpost. Plus, with each proposition you have the delivery date. A large panel of choice!You also have the option to choose : a Play-Asia standard package -with their logo- or a neutral -without logo; +0,5$-). You also have a gift wrap if you wish (+1,5$).You can simulate easily an order just to see the shipping fees. I chose AirMail with a neutral package. Sadly, I can't say how long it take to my package to arrive since I wasn't home for its delivery. My package was in my mailbox (no custom fees), and here's the pictures: Albums: perfect, no deterioration during transport. Plus: a redeem code in the package, US5$ off (minimum products value: US$60, expires on 07, feb, 2016. It's not that much yes but it's a nice attention anw!Satisfaction: 100% Will buy it again if they've got what I want! 1 ghost reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost 2687 Posted May 15, 2016 Just a heads up, EMS shipping rates will go up. Closet Child has made an announcement about that on their webpage. As a result, beginning on June 1st, 2016 they will start offering an Airmail shipping option.

BrenGun 2261 Posted May 15, 2016 Ohh... thats good AIRMAIL!! finally. but I don't get why it only goes until order of 6000 JPY ?? I wonder what kiwamu will do... still don't get why he doesn't use registered airmail too. since he can use that option easy too for lots of things he ships out who are below 2kg and within the size, LxHxW=90cm.

ghost 2687 Posted June 28, 2016 I have a question concerning "Endicia". I placed my first order using Airmail with Closet Child. My package got shipped out on the 17th. It arrived at the closest mail distribution center in my area on the 23rd. Since then, the status of my order has been "arrived at unit" for 5 days (28th, today). Then, all of a sudden, a new tracking number got added to my online mail account without my knowing. On my dashboard it says "Shipped from: WORLD NET ENDICIA / UPS - MI" and there's a new shipping number included as well. I believe they're some shipping label company that works with USPS, so I'm guessing it is connected to my order from Japan. But, there is no indication on my account that it is. Does anyone have any experience with this when ordering goods internationally? I'm just sitting here wondering whey they haven't attempted delivery for 5 days now, but it looks like this process might be par for the course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanivani 558 Posted August 4, 2016 Does Brand X never reply to emails????? >_____< lol Or send out verification that the order has shipped? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Small Packet can be insured, but only for up to 6000 yen, no more than that. It's the same reason FJ doesn't allow Small Packet for shipments above 6,000. In principle one can send goods of whatever value you would like, but you cannot insure them above 6000 yen, and so you will only be compensated as much in the case that it gets lost.

In my experience, they usually do not send out an e-mail when they ship something. Once when I was concerned about the delivery timing and sent them an e-mail asking for the tracking number, they replied within a day or so and gave it to me. In general I haven't had problems with them replying, but it's been a while since I ordered directly from them. Edited August 11, 2016 by ryuhime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They finally replied to me, letting me know that the manufacture for one of my CDs hadn't shipped them to Brand X yet, so I must wait >_< lol that's good to know, though, that they tend to not send out emails haha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
