Evergreen Evergiven Incident

Hello,

We are currently facing an unusual delay regarding deliveries for all orders shipped in mid January 2021.
We are looking into this matter as deliveries shipped in late January 2021 might also face a delay.

We do not know when these deliveries are scheduled to arrive to our warehouse, thus, at the time writing this article, we expect a delivery before May 1st.

Even though we are not responsible in the incident, we would like to apologize for the unusual waiting time to all our customers.
In the future, we are planning to ship directly from Japan. But as of today, it’s not physically and logistically possible.

Any pre-order placed in February/March might not be affected by this extra delay as the issue has been already resolved.

Thank you for your legendary patience, but most importantly, your trust.

The Destockjapan Team.

Limited Events

Hello,

We have recently added a new category named “Limited Events” where can be found products sold during limited events in Japan or just limited in stock.

This category’s products are located in our Japanese warehouse or are underway to our French warehouse, thus the waiting time for your order can fluctuate between 2 and 4 months. Every details are written in the item’s page description.

Despite the long waiting time, there are three advantages to this category:

  1. The featured products have a fixed price which will rise when they arrive to our warehouse in France.
  2. If you have placed an order and wish to place another one, no matter if products are available or not in our warehouse in France, please contact us to combine your orders and save on shipping fees.
  3. We can keep your orders in our warehouse until they are complete and for two months for free.

This way, we hope increasing the speed of upcoming new items.

Thank you kindly for your trust and support.

Bundles

Dear customers,

unfortunately, the dynamic pricing system is no longer available since the beginning of November due to a conflict between the site and its extension.

Instead, you will find a system called “Bundle” allowing you to freely combine previously defined products, and to benefit from a discount.

For example, for every 5 Weekly Shonen Jump purchased through the dedicated product page in the Bundle category, a 10% discount will be applied.

Visit the category from time to time to discover new Bundles.

Thank you for your understanding.
