Braver than me. I would've called my bank and told them I had some weird charge from Japan. They'd have given me my money back after seeing that sketchy website.
I feel you... I wanted to buy some pens from USA but the shipping to Europe is 38 euro plus 15 euro for the import fees. That's 88 Australian dollars 😢 Do you know how it feels when a pen that costs 100 Euro, a little bit more than 100 US dollars gets a big discount, more that 50% plus free shipping for USA, but the shipping and import for Europe will equal that discount. 😢 Not to mention that European stores have the older nibs of that model. You have that feeling that you are blocked and not permitted to take the advantage. 55€ about 90 Australian dollars for shipping and fees is more than what the pen that i want costs after the discount and a big amount of money for someone like me. It's the 1/8 of my pension only for the shipping. Also the inks, another problem, if you can't find them here, well you can't buy them from America.
Sometimes the internet becomes a impenetrable window to a buffet you can't enjoy. I'm often tormented by the glass as I watch people enjoy my favorite foods. Woe is me. If I never found that window I would have been perfectly happy. Probably would be still be using that cheap Pilot Kakuno. That pen is great.

It's totally fine, fountain pen are use for life, and it's look good when you carry them

Well said.
I agree, Kakuno is a great value for money pen.
Pfff ... It's only money.
Why have this useless money when you could have fountain pens :)
@@Ashsibe Too right. Who needs all that plastic papery stuff (our play money) anyway? You solved that problem.
