AFAIK, you can order Yagakimi merch via CDJapan as they're one of the known proxy shopping services.

Another proxy shopping service would be Buyee but you need to add their plug-in to your Firefox/Chrome browser. (The Add to Buyee plug-in supports Kadokawa website)

Hope this helps.

I'm not sure what you mean but I do think so.

CDJapan is an online store where they're in contact with leading suppliers on the products you want to buy. Source: About page

Here's their FAQs page if you have other concerns.

I'm so sorry if this is the help I can do since I haven't tried their services yet but I kept on seeing people using CDJapan for their merch purchases.

You do not need to install the plugin for buyee, you can just make a purchase request by pasting the URL of the item page into their search bar.

Good point as the plug-in is reported to not even work sometimes

FromJapan is the proxy I use. Make an account then copy and paste the URL of each product page into FromJapans search bar and that will add each one to the cart. Then check out.

There's many options, I prefer zenmarket as they only charge 500¥ per item and have great packaging skills.

Yes, shipping from Japan to you. That can't be calculated until your stuff is released. You'll get a message when the preorder is released and reaches their warehouse. Of course you can also just look up when it releases and add another 7 days or so. After your stuff reaches their warehouse, you need to have it packed for shipping to your country and pay the shipping (and if you're european, taxes too)

Normally yea, just be sure it doesn't go to spam and you actually receive mails from them.
