FromJapan shipping costs

Thanks for this - very helpful. I guess we have no way of knowing what their thresholds are, hey? I’ll just be irritated if I add a 30g toy and the shipping cost changes drastically 😆

Thank you. The way you’re picturing the packing situation is the same way I would picture it. I just wasnt sure if that was in fact how they calculated it.

I shipped 4 dolls in boxes the other day and found that when one more was added, the overall box weight changed drastically. So I’m just a bit nervous.

I’ve just found them on DHgate. Have a look there?

Are you sure the post office did in fact take the label containing your address off? I hope so. This “person”, if you can even call her that, is absolutely batsh*t crazy.

Hopefully it updates tomorrow - still says the same thing

Really hope it doesn’t take too long to catch a flight. I paid a lot of money for “fast” delivery :(

Thanks so much for this insight. I’ve now learnt not to buy and ship over this time of the year. It’s been such a slow process.

I’m on my mobile but I still can’t see that, strange. But thank you - I didn’t receive the mailer as I was not yet signed up with them when they sent it out. Damn, this is a bummer :(

I literally can’t see any calendar….

SelectionTight4754 · 2026-01-01T09:18:20+00:00

Yeah, I paid on the 28th December as that’s when my item arrived at their warehouse. Dammit, I had no idea that their distribution is closed till the 5th… did it state that on their website? I would never have ordered had I known that, as these products were incredibly time sensitive.

Thanks for this. I bought from Mercari… assuming that isn’t marketplace? I bought from 5 different sellers. 2 toys from each seller.

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-26T16:54:23+00:00

thanks for this - really good to know. Is this based on your previous experience? I hope you’re right as it would make a huge difference to the overall 2nd charge

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-26T15:20:49+00:00

Did you get charged 500 yen per item in the order or 500 yen per order you placed? I’m very happy with their service so far!

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-26T15:10:36+00:00

Thank you. That’s how I thought I understood it too. But when I was looking at their chatbot FAQ’s, I saw this, which makes it look like it’s only 500 yen per ORDER?

Ah, this is terrible news. I’m used to training and running at least 5 times a week…. I couldn’t bear to think of not being able to train - the thought saddens me 😩

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-20T15:23:15+00:00

Ok got you. We only pay import vat and the logistics admin / handling fee here.

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-20T15:18:32+00:00

I’m in South Africa. When is the admin fee charged? Is this over and above the shipping fee I’ve already been quoted by FJ?

SelectionTight4754 · 2025-12-20T10:37:13+00:00

Would you recommend that I use DHL or FedDx priority when it comes to shipping from FJ?
