Q: Why is necessary subrscribe an account with Paypal to complete the payment? (from end of June 2013)
A: Paypal is the most secure payment method in the world and recently has changed the payment system in order to increase user-friendliness and to strengthen the protection against the fraud use. The following text was edited from the official Paypal notification about changes of the payment method:
CHANGES
Until the end of June 2013:
Current check out page displays two options of “Pay with my PayPal account” and “Pay with a credit card”.When buyers choose “Pay with a credit card”, they are able to make payments without registering to PayPal account, by filling out credit card and individual information each time.
From end of June 2013:
With the system modification in the end of June 2013, “Pay with credit card” will change to “Create a PayPal account”, and buyers will be requested to create PayPal account by inputting password after filling out credit card and individual information.
SCHEME AND BENEFITS
Buyers could easily create secure PayPal account on checkout page.
Buyers could easily complete their purchases as there is no need to filling out credit card information each time.
It contributes to preventing fraud use by creating PayPal account.
Creating a PayPal account is only for the first time purchase. For subsequent purchases, buyers could either pay with PayPal or by filling out credit card and individual information from the display shown as "Don't have a PayPal account? Pay with a card".(*)
* However, when buyers erase their cookie or make access from PC or mobile devices other than the one used for the first time, it will display "Create a PayPal account" same as the first purchase. And when the same email address and credit card information used to create PayPal account are filled out to make payments, error will be displayed. When error is displayed, buyers have to make payments from "Pay with my PayPal account" by filling out email address and password registered to their PayPal account. When buyers forget their registered credentials, they could get help from the same page.

Q: Are all the products made in Japan?
A: We are very happy and proud to be in Japan and we mainly sell "made in Japan" products. Our suppliers are local manufacturers, artisans or factories.
We also produce many quality goods, in strict collaboration with some local craftman, as for example the Inkan stamp, the Musashi Hakama or the customizable Tenugui. However, some products are made outside of Japan from japanese producers, keeping the same highest standards, even because the main target of these factories are the japanese users.
