02 — Request an Item

Didn't see it? Have us go find it.

Tell us the item and we'll come back with what's available in Japan and what it costs. Nothing is committed until you've seen the options.

Step 1

Tell us what you want

Paste a link, or give us the brand, model, size, year. Add the condition you would accept and what you are willing to spend.

Takes a minute · no account

Step 2

We search Japan for it

Your request runs against our catalog of Japanese inventory right away. If nothing matches, our team goes direct to the dealers, auction houses and shops that never list online.

Minutes to a few days

Step 3

You pick from what we find

Every match comes to you by email with photos, a condition grade and a price. Pick the one you want, or pass on all of them.

Passing costs nothing

03 — What we find

If it was ever sold in Japan, we can usually get it.

Sold-out releases, discontinued references, vintage pieces and one-off collaborations. Japan holds decades of stock that never left the country, kept in condition collectors elsewhere rarely see, across every category people actually chase.

Sneakers

Japan-exclusive colorways, sold-out drops and deadstock pairs.

Watches

Vintage references and discontinued models from a deep collector market.

Bags

Waitlisted and discontinued designer pieces, often single-owner.

Collectibles

Figures, limited runs and trading cards, including sealed stock.

Apparel

Archive pieces and collaborations that never left the country.

Anything rare

Ask about anything. We’ll tell you straight if it’s findable.

04 — Verification

You get the full report before you spend anything.

Buying rare goods sight-unseen is where people get burned. So every item we send you arrives with the same four things, whether it's a $200 pair of sneakers or a $20,000 watch. Read it, then decide.

01

The exact reference

We identify the specific model, colorway and production year, then confirm it against catalog data. Not “looks like,” but the actual reference number.

02

Photos of this item

Images of the actual piece, not a stock shot. If a listing’s photos leave anything unclear, we go back to the seller for more before passing it to you.

03

A condition grade

Recorded on Japan’s letter scale (N, S, A, B, C) with a plain-English note on what that means for this piece specifically.

04

A specialist’s sign-off

Anything rare, vintage or high-value is examined by someone who grades that category professionally before it reaches you.

And if we ever get it wrong, you get everything back

If an item turns out not to be authentic, we refund it in full, no questions asked. We would rather lose the sale than defend a fake.

05 — What you're protected from

Buying from overseas is risky. That risk is ours, not yours.

Fakes, misdescribed condition, prices that move, a parcel that never arrives. All of it sits on our side of the deal.

If

It isn’t authentic

Refunded in full, no questions asked. We’d rather lose the sale than argue.

If

It isn’t as described

You approve against photos and a written grade, so what arrives is what you agreed to.

If

The price moves

One figure, quoted once. We absorb currency swings between quote and purchase.

If

It’s lost in transit

Every shipment is insured for full value. Lost or damaged means refunded or replaced.

The one thing we can't undo is a change of mind. Each piece is bought individually for you, so approving it is final. That is exactly why nothing is charged until you have seen what you are getting.

06 — Recent requests

Minutes for some. Days for others.

If an item is common enough to be in our catalog, we usually find it right away. If it's genuinely rare, someone has to go looking, and that takes a few days.

08 — FAQ

The four we get asked most.

Why can’t I just buy these myself?

Most Japanese sellers are domestic-only. No international shipping, no foreign cards, nothing listed in English. We buy the way a local buyer would, then ship it to you.

What if you can’t find it?

You hear back either way. If the piece isn’t available right now, we tell you what we did find and what it would take to get the real thing, and you owe us nothing. We can also keep the request open and email you if one surfaces later.

Can I return something?

Not for a change of mind. We buy each piece individually once you approve it, so there’s no shelf to put it back on. That’s why you get photos, the reference and a condition grade first, and why we’d rather you pass than accept something you’re unsure about. If an item turns out not to be authentic, that’s on us and you get a full refund.

Will I owe customs or import duty?

Possibly. Duty is set by your country and paid by you, not us. We declare value accurately and tell you what to expect for your category before you commit.
