Sentai Tamashii, from THIS forum, has a middleman service but I don't know if he does Amazon.jp. Worth asking him in PM though.

I tried RiderProxy but their website seems to no longer exist: http://riderproxy.com/

EDIT: alright, I can contact Rider from here I guess: http://forums.henshinjustice.com/showthread.php?t=49712

I emailed Yokatta and they can buy it. The item's price from Amazon.jp is ￥ 2,380 and their fee is ￥ 700 which makes it ￥ 3,080. Most places suggested on the Tokunation list and from folks on TFW charge the ￥ 700 for a fee. Below is the reply they have sent me so far. So is ￥ 700 a fair fee or can I get this thing even cheaper? I just need someone in Japan to buy it and then ship it to me. I have never done this before so with my first attempt I'm just trying to not overpay more than I should (whatever a fair price may be).
