Shipping a Computer to Japan?
I should probably just talk to the Post Office about this, but I just thought I would ask in case someone from Japan knows... I have a mini laptop I want to send to someone in Japan as a Christmas present, but I dont know about importation taxes and all that there in Japan, the rules are different from here in the US, and I dont want to send the person a gift, and her get a bill along with it... does anyone have any information on this subject?

Answer 1 :
The border line to declare is Yen200,000 to Customs if pay or not pay import duty in Japan no matter if it is for commercial or personnel use so that you won't need to worry if your PC value is actually popular and correct enough as same as described under Yen200,000(converted in to about US$2,000 as of now) on the shipping invoice

Is it worth buying eletronics when in Japan
Is it worth buying eletronics when in Japan?
I'm off to Japan in a few days (from New Zealand) for a school trip and have spending money to take. I would like to get either a Xbox 360 or Play Station 3 (have a Wii) and am interested to know if they are sold in Japan at much lower prices and whether its worth it? My teacher says you can get Apple products e.g laptops much cheaper in Japan than here in NZ (but don't really need apple stuff as I already have a laptop and ipod touch). Also would it be cheaper/easier to get an xbox 360 in Japan's duty free at the airport, or actually in-store in Japan. Will they work in N.Z and run in English?

Answer 1 :
Well your probably are losing money because there is a huge tax fee for transferring currencies from any to another so just buy it in new Zealand and get ps3 xbox doesnt have blue ray and I personally regret buying a xbox
Answer 2 :
Don't get game consoles or video equipment there. They are incompatible with your TVs, plus you will not be able to play games, DVDs, and some Blu-Ray movies you can locally buy at home, due to region protections. The menus will be likely be Japanese, but you may have English options

Will an American laptop battery work on a Japanese laptop if they have the same model numbers
Will an American laptop battery work on a Japanese laptop if they have the same model numbers?
I recently bought a laptop from sonystyle Japan. It has the same model number as the laptop that is on sonystyle America. Will a battery that works for the American laptop work also for the Japanese laptop? what kind of tasks, and about how long would it take? They will work even with the difference in power from Japan to America?

My suggestion would be to contact a company like Battery Zone and ask their customer support person. BatteryZONE Inc. (Central) P.O. Box 292 Baileys Harbor, WI 54202 800.824.0558 (Toll-Free) 920.839.9705 (Local Voice) 920.839.9155 (Fax) http://www.batteryzone.com/
Answer 2 :
If it's the same model number laptop, there's no reason it shoudn't work, there is nothing about a battery that is exclusive to any one country, they're all the same. You can easily contact Sony Help and Support by phone or e-mail to be sure. By the way, the previous answers is a scam, they just want you to look at their website, ignore them, there's no free laptops
