4-2:About FedEex

The price of FedEx varies in detail depending on distance, box size, and box weight. Therefore, we cannot show a price list like EMS.

Approximate prices are as follows


  • FedEx box or pack, up to 500g weight, about 2500-2800 yen
  • FedEx box or pack, weighing around 1Kg, about 3000 yen
  • For a 2-piece rod for area trout, the shipping cost is about 6,000 yen.
  • RodioCraft's Yellow Wolf rod has a closing dimension of 130cm. In that case, please note that the FedEx fee will jump to around 13,000 yen.

Even if you buy several tens of thousands of yen worth of small plugs and spoons for area trout, the shipping cost is around 3000 yen. 90% of our European area trout customers are within 3000 yen for shipping.

Soft plastic lures for bass fishing are heavier and therefore a little more expensive.

However, please note that Shipping charges will jump for large, heavy items such as buckets and landing nets. Tackle bags cost about 30,000 yen for shipping to Europe. Note that even small tackle boxes can be heavy if you buy a lot of them.

All customers need to give us your phone number.

Please note: FedEx does not work on Saturdays, Sundays and Japan public holidays. Therefore, Your luggage may not move in my store for several days after you receive your truck number.

Note

  • In some regions, such as the EU, you may need to pay customs duties. We have no involvement in customs duties. I can't even answer your questions. Please contact your country's tax office.
  • We cannot export all Shimano / Megabass/ Tailwalk / Zenaq articles to overseas. It is based on a contract between them company and our company.

  • We cannot send these liquids by EMS. But we can send them via FedEx.

  • Automatic inflatable lifevests can not ship via air due to hazardous materials.

  • Magazines and books ,landing net , tackle box,Rod stand are big and heavy so shipping fee will be increase.
  • We send the fishing rod with a hard paper box. It is possible to put up to 3 rods in one box. (However, if rod case is thick, only 1 rod.)
  • Soft plastic lures for bass fishing are heavy.

About rod delivery

We send fishing rods in triangular boxes. If the length is up to 100cm and sent by FedEx, we put it in a FedEx tube. Otherwise, we send them in my store's own triangular box.

Occasionally, rods may break during transportation. In that case, the shipping company will guarantee the amount up to the declared amount written on the slip. As soon as you receive the rod, check the contents and report any damage to the carrier.

If the bag of rods is thin, up to three rods can be sent at a time. However, if the case is ridiculously luxurious, such as the one from RodioCraft, only one rod will fit.

Since it will be sent in a box shaped like this, I would like you not to buy lures or fishing lines with it if possible. Because it's so difficult to pack.

  • FedEx shipping for rods to Europe and America is about 6000-7000JPY.
  • If the length of the tube exceeds 121cm, an oversize fee of approximately 4,000JPY will be added.
  • RodioCraft's Yellow Wolf rod has a closing dimension of 130cm. Therefore, the shipping cost exceeds 10,000JPY.
  • The EMS shipping cost for rods to Asia is around 2000-3000JPY.
