Frequently Asked Questions
What is Package Forwarding?
Package forwarding is a service which accepts packages on your behalf and then forwards them to your address overseas. Blackship specialises in receiving packages from Japan only, they cannot be used to receive items from outside Japan. Customers are required to create accounts, place orders, pay and speak with stores on their own, Blackship just assists with shipping the item from Japan to you.
If you need assistance with creating an account, placing an order or payment then you should use White Rabbit Express instead.
What Methods of Payment Do You Accept ?
Blackship accepts the same payment methods as White Rabbit Express. Payments can be made by Paypal, Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover via our secure payment gateway.
Can you consolidate several packages and ship them together ?
Yes, Blackship can hold your packages (for up to 30 days) until multiple boxes arrive and ship them together. Consolidating multiple packages reduces the total weight, so you may save on actual shipping costs. However, unlike White Rabbit Express, Blackship charges a fee for consolidating packages together.
