Yeah, there's so many positive parts to using Amazon JP, they are my go-to whenever possible for pre-orders from Japan.
- Amazon takes the 10% Japanese tax off the price (not all e-retailers do) giving you an extra discount.
- You pre-pay the Canadian taxes on that reduced amount with $0 in processing charges (Canada Post charges $10, couriers outside of Amazon's often charge more)
- The item ships by DHL, which is ridiculously fast (2-4 business days to Atlantic Canada for me, usually)
