Constellation161 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I'm looking to buy a record from Soundfinder in Japan, anyone had any dealings from them or any others dealers over there. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Steve Foran Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Yes I bought a big want from Japan. Record in perfect order. AND it only took 3 working days to get here. Incredible! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Homage Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I buy from Japanese dealers on the usual selling sites, and also from a couple of the shops every couple of months. To date always smooth transactions, and the records are always exactly as described condition wise. Mark Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Paul Quinn Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I have bought from Japan had no problem at all , think my record arrived within a week ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Windlesoul Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Flynny (Anorak Corner) provides an excellent service from Tokyo, and the courier service he uses is phenomenal. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Billy Jo Jim Bob Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Had lots off eBay from Japan and sold to Japan as well. Never a problem. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tailormade Gaz B Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Flynny (Anorak Corner) provides an excellent service from Tokyo, and the courier service he uses is phenomenal.

Spacehopper Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 yep again from flynny more than once and always less than week....and less than some royal mail! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garswood Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I've had records and DVDs from Japan and always been excellent service, great communication and usually arrived within a week. Some U.S./UK sellers could learn a thing or two from them. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jordirip Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I can only echoe what's been said. Always great condition,, fast postal service and always excellent packaging. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mal C Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Ive also bought tons from Japan, I have to say they are all great guys over there, and when it comes to condition, every 45 I've ever bought has been very minty... fast quality service...is std in Japan pretty much I think.. m:_)) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Good evening from Tokyo! Can only echo what has been said above...the chances of being ripped off by someone based here is low...it is simply not within the culture to do something so low! EMS couriers is an exclusive Japan Post service...never a problem. Just one thing to note - the Soundfinder site lists stock from other shops...and not all the actual shops can communicate clearly in English or may not even send abroad due to communication and/or preferred payment options.

Jerry Hipkiss Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Never had a problem with Anoraks Corner - he brings the records round personally every Christmas...only trouble is he takes them back with him after a cuppa!

Weego Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 With Japan sellers expect to receive the best service possible: speedy delivery & very accurate record grading. As a mint crazy collector I've never been deceived when buying from japanese guys. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
