Shopping at 1999.co.jp ??

Rickard_Olsson · #1 02-22-2008, 05:10 AM

I have never bought something from this website and I´m quite insecure.

I have choosed the item and put in the cart. What happens when I push purshase? :S Well I know what "purshase" means but what happens after that? Do I need to put in my address or what?

Thanks in advice.

Once you click purchase, it takes you to a secure website where you put in all your details for shipping and payment.

It's a good site. As I recall, they don't tell you the shipping cost in advance, but they charge you actual cost, with no S&H. Like Hong Kong, Japanese shipping is very reasonable. Guess they want to do business with other nations, unlike some countries that no longer offer international ground shipping.

I do 80% of all my buying at 1999.co.jp, and I am totally satisfied with their service. They have a big stock for you, they are secure at the payment just as said above by freakray and I always get my order within a week (4 business days usually) to Hungary, Central Europe from Japan. I can only recommend them.

4 days to hungary sounds excellent. ordered some stuff today for the first time from them (hobbylink, my regular source didn't have what i wanted...)

can't wait.

I ordered a lot of Finisher's paints and clears from them a while back and the service was excellent.The delivery was also very quick as well.I'd certainly recommend them 100%.

do you actually get some sort of confirmation once they shipped the order?

I'd highly recommend 1999.co.jp.

Shipping number? I always get a shipping number with mine, as well as a link so you can track it.

Hey Steve,a question, how you do to find the Finisher's paints at this site?...because, when i hit the paints section, I can't find nothing of these ones. Just a few of the re-stocked colors.

I've used HobbySearch 1999.co.jp, and they're great for tools and stuff, but there's no paint on their site. You can order Finishers at http://www.rainbowten.co.jp/english/.

Yes, I always get a confirmation mail after placing an order, and get another a few days later (2 days usually) telling they have my ordered items in stock and it has been shipped with EMS (telling the tracking number in the mail also). From that message, it usually takes 4 days to Europe.

Did you press 'Back' button any time during the order progress? It cancels datas from the page at HS Website, so it may be the problem as they say you have to fill the blank spaces before clicking submit. I had a similar problem with another online shop in the US, I simply called them instead of faxing and e-mailing as I thought this way was safer.
