I was looking at the Japanese ToysRUs website today and a popup window came up to tell me that I could order from that site through a third party called BuySmartJapan.

I had a look and it is just a shipping forwarder like the US ToysRUs uses... the only difference is that you are using a different order form on the Japanese ToysRUs store, which then forwards your order to BSJ for processing and charging to you before they place your order at ToysRUs (which, like the US version, items could sell out before your payment to the 3rd party is processed).

Anyone used it yet, or heard of it (since it looks like it is new).

If they get Amazon Japan on board, I'd certainly be interested... but for now, TRU JP has most of the Transformers toys that Amazon stocks.
(just a shame that you can't get the TRU freebie items that you'd get in store)

I have a lot of items on pre-order at HLJ at the moment, but I might see if there is something on the TRU JP site that I want that isn't currently on pre-order... and test it out. (if no one else has used it yet or has had any problems with it)
