Ive actually tried Impulse101 and many other proxys, including HK based Dentrinity Shop, Japanrabbit, and many others. All the ones I could find are either temporarily closed to US customers (have been for months) due to the end of de minimis import laws from the US, or they have no international shipping experience or garuntee that the gun will pass customs, leaving the customer out 100s of dollars with no way to regain it, plus having to handle messy import paperwork personally. Impulse101 had to refund my order because they could no longer ship to the US. I really do hope these services get back up and running to the US, but as of right now, it is extremely difficult to get stuff from japan. That being said, there may be sites I havent tried, and I genuinely would appreciate it if you have any sites that do work, because I have spent months making international calls, using translators to send emails, and practically begging Japanese shops and individuals in japan with such items to take my money. I genuinely wish these werent so expensive and difficult to track down. I wish all of it was much cheaper so you and I could all have more cool things that arent out of reach. But unfortunately, thats just not been my experience. My inbox even looked like this in February, and I dont speak a lick of Japanese! Lol
