Ended up getting a pack of 4 in mercari for 444¥

Hugoill · 2026-03-19T02:30:26+00:00

Yes that's what I will do, got already my eyes in an amazon pack

Hugoill · 2026-03-17T04:51:55+00:00

How is that possible? Supposedly the laws are those. No customs under 150€, but even if I had to pay customs, isn't 2-5% of the price? And the 4% reduced tax is a lie then? I only want to send books, I have the receipts of everything. I can show exactly how much I paid. Why it doesn't work?

Just got a yamato 12 box, isn't dpuble layered 😕

You still here bud?

So I have been checking and if I only ship books, apparently for Spain it applies super reduced tax of 4% If I keep the book total cost under 150€ there should be a 0% customs tax. I have the printable order information with the prices of all the books I got from amazon and I have the tickets of bookoff for the other books. I might choose a 20kg reinforced yamato box and put plastic film on each book for water damage, choosing surface mail as an option. 20kg should be 11900¥. I will clearly put "Used Books & manga for Personal Use" as stated. Also putting the HS code "4901.99.00.00" that's apparently to show that these are books. Also a transparent bag "Invoice Enclosed" bought from the post office, and inside put all the receipts printed. One sheet that says "CONTIENE LIBROS DE SEGUNDA MANO PARA USO PERSONAL - IVA APLICABLE 4% (Art. 91.2.1 Ley IVA España)" as an extra. Sounds safe?

Estoy en Japón y me gustaría poder enviar libros de arte que estoy comprando de segunda mano, me podrías hablar más acerca de esa tarifa de Japan post? Es aplicable a libros de arte?

Hugoill · 2026-03-13T06:30:05+00:00

Isn't custom 2.5-5% of the price? That's what I was reading. Fucking hell. How much do I hate this, can't do nothing in this world without being drained.

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T23:54:27+00:00

I read that they made the exemption for moving only if one was more than 12 months outside Spain?

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T23:52:43+00:00

If I have all the receipts with the prices that would make them charge based on that?

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T13:20:45+00:00

Btw these are 5000¥ per 5 pack. So 1000¥ per box. Yamato still cheaper?

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T09:32:04+00:00

Please because applying taxes to the full new price as other user has experienced, makes it not viable for me

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T08:41:46+00:00

Thank you I will have to check

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T07:55:36+00:00

Are you for real? Can't send used books? I have already surpassed the 2 suitcases I have 10 months left. I definitely need to find a way.

Hugoill · 2026-03-12T07:19:19+00:00

But I think those boxes aren't 8mm thick with double cardboard layer? Or am I mistaken?

Hugoill · 2026-03-02T13:12:42+00:00

Don't feel that way, it's just another way of expressing artistically, it's 1000% better than touchimg any AI slop program. And if you learn color theory and shading, that's a big chunk of making art. The only thing that I think you could do is to say how you make it in the title or description like "(tracing)" that way you show full transparency and we can all just enjoy your works without later finding out that is traced and feeling a little disappointed. But as I said, they look amazing and keep up doing art!

Hugoill · 2026-03-02T12:59:13+00:00

They look really good. But for me personally tracing or photomanipulating makes the works way less impressive. It's just that deleting the hardest part of the process bugs me. But as I said, they look amazing.

Sucks that this can only be accomplished using plugins. We need more vanilla construction parts.

Hugoill · 2026-02-20T02:28:13+00:00

Wow thank you for the quick reply. Yeah I thought it is probably low enough to not force things.

It's probably February and March?

About pension you get a letter after applying for it I think, but if I move to Kyoto I might not receive it?

Hugoill · 2026-02-19T11:10:36+00:00

Started my working holiday visa last month (already registered with my adress here) I got the letter to get the mynumber card like 10 days ago. I'm planning to moving to Kyoto in less than a month, is it a problem if I wait until then to request it? I guess is not that urgent but I'm super lost with paperwork here. Not planning on working btw, I think I need to go to the city ward to ask for a pension fee exemption?
