...Sought.

As title, Im looking for recommendations in my search for a reliable/economical Japanese parcel forwarder, who will work with vendors on Rakuten. Any experienced opinions welcomed.

Thanks. Do they calculate duty and VAT or do they just ship with a declaration?

Shipped with a declared value.
So RM takes their cut when it arrives in the UK

Are you talking about a one off or for regular delivery?

If you’re still needing it when i go to Japan next, you can get it sent to mine and i would bring it back for you and put it in Royal Mail.

Will likely be over there in around 2 months time for around a week if happy to wait.
