J-List recently added back EMS shipping support for the U.S., as the shipping situation has recovered significantly, giving our customers a lower price shipping option than DHL. We also lowered all shipping rates, which has been greeted with cheers by J-List customers. But we’ve got some bad news: DHL is set to raise their rates on April 10, due to the spike in oil prices associated with the end of COVID and the war in Ukraine. So you should make your orders before the rates go up!
Why Are Shipping Rates Rising?
Oil prices were already high due to various factors, including the increasing demand as the world returns to normal after lockdowns. Then the war in Ukraine happened, which caused energy prices to spike even higher. This has caused many disruptions around the world, including halting all EMS shipments to Europe temporarily, and making it hard for us to print those delightful uncensored doujinshi from J18 Publishing and JAST USA’s upcoming limited edition games. But we’ll all get through it!
While DHL rates are set to rise on April 10, EMS rates are not going up yet. But we do expect them to do so, possibly without warning. So whether you’re ordering via DHL or EMS, you might want to do so quickly.
But wait! There’s a reason to be happy! J-List is continuing our $25 Shipping Support Coupon for all orders of $150 or more, shipping from Japan, which helps you out with your shipping rates during these frustrating times. We plan to keep this coupon in place for the duration of the crisis.
J-List is super lucky to have such a great number of supportive customers, and we’ve enjoyed being Your Friend in Japan™ for more than 25 years. We know we’ll all get through the current crisis and come out on the other side in a better place.
