How the service works

You buy cards at Japanese card shops and have them sent to KY Koneko. We then:

Receive the parcels
Open each parcel
Check the contents against your order list
Take photographs
Consolidate the items and ship them to Singapore by EMS, about twice a week

Customs declarations are always made at the true value of the goods.

Handling fee

The handling fee is the higher of:

3% of the card total, or
¥50 per card

This fee covers receiving, opening, checking against your order list, photography, and consolidation.

The fee may be adjusted once actual volumes are known.

Example 1

10 cards totalling ¥100,000
3% = ¥3,000 · 10 × ¥50 = ¥500

Fee: ¥3,000

Example 2

100 cards totalling ¥20,000
3% = ¥600 · 100 × ¥50 = ¥5,000

Fee: ¥5,000
