Books:
There are two methods of shipping from Japan to us -- Airmail and Surface mail. Airmail generally takes 2-3 weeks to reach us and Surface mail takes 5-6 weeks to reach us. The cost is an extra $6 for airmail. The cost for surface mail is included in the product's price. The price is usually 0.022 x the yen price. For example, if a manga costs 300 yen it will cost $6.60 plus the cost of shipping to you.
CDs and Videos:
CDs and videos are shipped from Japan to us by airmail, which usually takes 2-3 weeks to reach us.
The price for CDs and DVDs is 0.0105 times the yen price + $3 * Number of CDs in the set. For example, a 3059 yen CD is: (3059 * 0.0105) + ($3 * 1) = $35.12 US, plus the cost of shipping to you ($2.50 per order or free with an order of 6 or more). A 3900 yen 4 CD set is: (3900 * 0.0105) + ($3 * 4) = $53.50 US.
For LDs and VHS the price is 0.0105 times the yen price + $6 * Number of LDs/Tapes in the set. For example, a 4200 yen VHS tape is: (4200 * 0.0105) + ($6 * 1) = $50.10 US plus the cost of shipping to you ($2.50 per order or free with an order of 6 or more). A 2 LD set priced at 6000 yen would cost: (6000 * 0.0105) + ($6 * 2) = $75 US
