Can't Shop on Amazon.co.JP without a Japanese Address

I wanted to buy some Japanese adult movies and ship them over here to the US, but you're required to have a Japanese residence.

When you provide your credit card #, the card must be registered to a Japanese address, regardless of where you're shipping it. I translated the Amazon pages and researched them thoroughly.

I understand there are intermediaries like Tenso.com that can ship physical orders to the US (like DVDs), but DVDs are fading away and now the supply is mostly Direct-Download (DD) or Prime Video. The selection of DVDs is very small even if I were paying the extra fee for Tenso. What I really want is to be able to purchase Direct-Downloads in the 'Erotica' section of Amazon.co.JP of which there are thousands, with new ones coming out every week. For that it looks like even Tenso wouldn't help me. I love Japanese porn and strongly prefer it to Western porn, not to mention the Japanese supply is much greater.

I can't understand why a paying customer willing to shell out his money would be so restricted. Almost makes me want to travel to Japan to stock up on these videos and bring them back over here, but then I might be detained by American customs for importing "illegal material." America has a hard time with porn and has strict customs.

I couldn't even find any good international catalogs of Japanese erotica that ship to the US, there might be a few with 5-6 DVDs and that's it.

That's not true. I use 2 US issued credit cards on Amazon Japan almost weekly.

I'm in Japan but don't live in Japan. I go to sea soon for a month. I forgot my SODASTREAM and so decided to buy one on Amazon.jp and deliver it to hotel.

Although I could enter a US credit card number - you also have to give your BILLING address for that card - but the Amazon.jp form for this only takes a Japanese address (there is no way to input a US state in that form - it only has a dropdown menu with Japanese prefectures, or whatever.

I did this yesterday.

I noticed there was a COD option - IF you are delivering to Japan. Well I was going to go with that but then I noticed the price for the SodaStream with the bottles and CO2 ... over 30K yen!! LMAO ... NO!!!

It's less than 80 bucks in the States!!!

Don't know how you got it take your information - or if they changed the form since you did it. Or if there was some fucking other button I had to push!!! LMAO

Yeah I've also been able to buy a few things from Amazon.co.jp.

Now shipping, that's where you may run into some problems. There's been numerous times where I couldn't get something because the item in question wouldn't ship overseas.

Get that at Tokyu Hands. Doesn't cost 30,000
 
Certainly not true that you need a credit card with Japanese address. In all my charges still went through even having the billing address incorrect.
 
Guys, it was me who posted a while back about some difficulty in getting access to JAV (Japanese Adult Movies), but I recently found an awesome resource that has totally fulfilled all my porn/erotica needs without having to do anything on Amazon JP.

There's a site called R18.com which has millions of instantly-downloadable Japanese adult videos all of which are catalogued and available from anywhere. Literally millions of options for breast fondling/sucking, Japanese big tits, anything you can think of. Pretty much a one-stop shop with top quality, and now I don't need Amazon with its regional restrictions, I download everything from the US. Videos range from $5-20 in USD.
