Sample Purchase Service
BETAOrdering a sample from a Japanese factory usually means international bank wires, Japanese-language negotiation, and no buyer protection. We remove all of that: we order and pay the factory for you, and you pay us by credit card.
Request a quote
Tell us the factory and the sample you want. We confirm availability and price in Japanese, then quote you the total (item + international shipping + fee). Quotes are free.
Pay by card
Approve the quote and pay via a secure Stripe payment link. No wires, no Japanese bank forms.
Receive your sample
We purchase from the factory and ship the sample to you. Ready for production? We manage that too — quotes, payment, inspection, and shipping, with reduced fees on repeat orders.
Pricing & how it works
- This service covers samples of a factory's existing products — the fastest way to judge quality in hand. For custom prototypes, build a spec sheet first and ask us — we quote prototype projects individually during beta
- Total = item price + shipping + our service fee (10% of item price, min. ¥1,500). You see the full amount before paying anything
- This is a resale service: you purchase the sample from us, and we purchase it from the factory. Your contract is with us
- Samples are procured to order — no cancellations or returns after payment (defective or damaged items are reshipped or refunded). See our terms and legal notice (Japanese)
- Lead time depends on the factory (typically 1–4 weeks plus shipping; stated in your quote)
- Moving to production later? We can also keep your finished goods in Japan and ship each order worldwide — see Japan Warehousing & Global Fulfillment (beta)
