Ordered parts for my Kyosho MP11

Ordered parts for my Kyosho MP11. The parts were on backorder everywhere and Plaza Japan had it in stock. Service was quick and simple. Would highly recommend this site.

Expect High Shipping Costs

I paid about $45 USD in shipping costs.

I paid ~$20 at time of purchase which I thought was all I would have to pay, but the courier charges another $25 which I was not adequately informed about.

Reply from Plaza Japan

We sincerely apologize on behalf of the courier service used. Unfortunately we are not able to provided estimates of customs fees as these are generally decided and applied by the carrier after import has been completed. We do ask that customers review the information on the shipping page and our ordering information page/terms of service required to placing an order, but we understand that not all information may be the most clearly stated. We will continue to do our best to ensure transparency and provide information to our valued customers amidst the changing tariff and import policies in some countries.

Best Regards,
Plaza Japan

This is an excellent retailer

This is an excellent retailer, and our go-to among Japanese sites selling our favorite action figures. Their prices are competitive, customer service is responsive, and their speed of delivery is the fastest among all the Japanese sites we use. Tip: The UPS shipping option is our favorite, even though it’s pricier.

Wonderful

I rarely leave reviews online.
But this website deserves a few kind words.

1.First of all, I’m from Ukraine, and the fact that—unlike many American and European websites—they offer direct shipping for a reasonable price.
2.The prices are very nice, compared to various stores that resell Japanese goods or simply raise prices for the local market.
3. Delivery might take a little while, but that’s not a problem for me, since the two packages I ordered from this site arrived in perfect condition.
4. I ordered several food items, and they all arrived fresh, with expiration dates that didn't even come close to being up.

But there are two things I'd like to improve

1. Please update the items that are out of stock more often; there are a lot of great items that have been out of stock for a very long time.
2. I'd like to see more options in the Tea and Coffee section.

Every other aspect is fantastic. I’ll definitely be ordering from you regularly.
