Highly recommend Sendico

I've imported loads of Yamaha TRX850 parts with Sendico and never one had an issue.
They've always been amazingly well packed and on average take just over a week to arrive.

Several items arrived damaged due to being tightly crammed into the box without any bubble wrap.
The seller refused to offer any compensation for their poor packaging.
As a long-time customer who has ordered from them for years, I’m truly disappointed.

Reliable and Hassle Free Service to Australia

I’ve used Sendico multiple times to ship items from Japan to Australia, and every experience has been smooth and reliable. The website is easy to navigate, the process is clear, and shipping options are well priced even for international delivery.

What really impressed me was how well-packaged everything arrived. Items were carefully consolidated and shipped quickly, with full tracking all the way to my doorstep in Australia. Their communication is also excellent any questions I had were answered promptly.

If you’re in Australia and need a trustworthy proxy service for Japanese sites, Sendico is the way to go. Highly recommended!

Bent boxes

They have bent the boxes of Amiibo figures by packing them too tightly and did not offer any compensation for that.

Hi There,

We’re very sorry to hear that you ran into trouble with your purchase.

Unfortunately, as a proxy service, we simply help facilitate purchases between buyers and Japanese sellers. Because of this, we cannot offer refunds in cases where the item turns out to be inauthentic, especially when the buyer has already approved the item after our warehouse photo check.

If we were to issue refunds in these situations, we would not be returning the funds you paid to the seller, but instead providing you money from our accounts. As I'm sure you can understand this would not be a sustainable practice as we only charge a 500 yen service fee. This is why we strongly encourage customers to be cautious when selecting sellers and to review the warehouse photos we provide carefully before confirming shipment.

We completely understand how frustrating this kind of experience can be, and we’re here to help however we can. Please feel free to reach out if there’s anything we can do to assist further.

We truly hope you understand.

Kind Regards,
Sendico

amazing company!!

I’ve been using this amazing company for many years now! When I first started shopping for Japanese items, I tried out several different companies to compare them. But I quickly discovered that Sendico consistently offered more affordable shipping rates for the exact same items—that was the first game changer for me!

What surprised me even more was that despite the lower cost, the quality of packaging and shipping was far superior. Every package arrived safely, carefully packed, and handled with genuine attention to detail. From the start, I found myself saving money while receiving a higher standard of service.

Over time, as I continued using Sendico, I realized they’re not just a reliable business—they genuinely care about their customers. Their team goes above and beyond to provide thoughtful, personal touches that you wouldn’t expect! On several occasions, I also received a beautifully crafted origami crane (an orizuru) included in my parcels. It’s a small but deeply meaningful gesture :-)

To me, that simple paper crane has come to symbolize everything about Sendico’s approach: generosity, trustworthiness, and connection to the authentic culture of Japan.

I would 100% recommend Sendico and feel lucky to have found them!!
