    Default Import Game Online Stores

    Hi.

    I recently decided that I wanted to collect specific original copies of Japanese PS1/PS2 games (and some Japanese music).

    But there are two requirements by Online Stores that I need to be met: PayPal as a payment method, and international shipping (Australia).

    So far I know of two, or is it three:

    Play-Asia
    Liksang
    Yes-Asia

    cdjapan and amazon unfortunately does not allow PayPal. Not sure about their Japanese counterparts though (probably not either).

    If anyone can add to the above list, that'd be great.

    Cheers.

    Play-Asia's prices and service is so good I've never seen the need to use any other store. The only reason I'd use someone else is if PA didn't have what I wanted.

    You can't get games from amazon.co.jp as far as I know either, just CDs and DVDs.

    This thread has a bunch of different shops listed. Maybe you can find one that fits your needs.

    Cheers for the suggestions. Though some of those shops offer PayPal, the website design does seem a little... unsatisfactory. Doesn't really inspire confidence in me as a customer. (:

    Amazon.co.jp has a game I want, but doesn't accept PayPal... shame.

    Oops sorry, none of those websites in that first forum post were bad design.

    I was just clicking on every link there and elsewhere (e.g. other forums) to check out all the stores and some of them were a bit shoddily designed. Can't remember which ones though since I regularly delete my browser cache (Opera).

    Anyway forget what I said.
