ippy 66 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 its backcountry/dogfunk. itll be the first hit on a google search. If you can, head into chat and talk to a rep. After tubby got a discount on his shipping to japan, i thought id try my luck and also got the same deal. So they seem to be able to do it with no problems. Link to post Share on other sites

ippy 66 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 you just have to chat to a customer rep. Basically suggest that your mates got a special discount on teh shipping to japan for $63 and if they gave you that as well youll order the board right theer and right now. That pretty much got it for me 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RobBright 35 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Cool will try it this evening as I want to get some new boots too. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 also mention that you are talking to another site ( I mentioned Evo) but they are messing youa round on the shipping and you were wondering if they can do you a deal as you want to buy right now. I found that list from japanese Customs that said there were no improt charges on snowboards into Japan, so i said that and mentioned that Evo were still giving me an overinflated price etc....if they want the sale they should go for it. As Ippy said I got it from Backcountry Link to post Share on other sites

sanjo 2 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 The main sports shops in Nagaoka STILL haven't got much new stock in. They said when we get into the 2nd week of November they should have it all out. Link to post Share on other sites

MrSingh 0 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 Need a new pair of gloves. Eyeing the Arcteryx Alpha SV gloves but $300 for a pair of gloves is too rich for my blood... (managed to pick up a really nice Arcteryx gore-tex performance shell jacket at half price on eBay last season though, 25% of the official distributor price in Japan!!!)
