Earlier this year, we introduced the international shipping expansion of Grape Shop, an e-commerce site shared by we at grape Japan and our sister Japanese site Grape.
Grape Shop features a number of unique and high quality goods from Japan, including delicious tea bags with creative animal designs, beautiful glassware that changes color and transforms into blooming sakura, and elegant incense in the shape of fallen leaves.
Whether it be goods that show off Japanese craftsmanship, cute and whimsical designs, or practical everyday products, Grape Shop customers will be sure to find something to liven up their daily life.
The international shipping comes courtesy of WorldShopping, an overseas service that delivers products from popular shops in Japan to around the world. When viewing our Grape Shop articles (such as this one), you may have seen the following text when introducing a product:
(We use WorldShopping Global. The grape SHOP page is in Japanese, but if you see the WorldShopping widget appear at the bottom of the page, that product can be shipped overseas)
While that text breaks things down essentially, we would like to provide a more in depth guide as to how international shipping works.
When accessing Grape Shop from overseas, this message should display:
The WorldShopping Cart and widget should automatically be displayed when viewing items that can be shipped overseas:
Here is a breakdown from WorldShopping about their process and policy regarding their international shipping service:
