Can you pay in usd on the volks website?

Or do I have to go through samurai buyer?

Why do you want to pay in USD? The Volks JP store charges in yen, while the VolksUSA store charges in USD. If you are fussed about currency for some reason, use VolksUSA. But there is no issue paying in yen on the JP site.

For Volks Japan, you'll have to pay via PayPal.

 

PayPal will automatically convert your USD to yen. You don't need to use a buying service like Samurai Buyer.

...samurai buyer? .. Wait, are you asking if Volks International needs a middleman service?

 

No you can buy from the directly, even if you're in the US

Yes, their prices are in yen, but PayPal doesn't particularly have any problems converting that

In some cases a middleman could be useful.

Volks writes full amount on the customs declarations, and the middleman may not, if asked nicely

weeeeeeeeeeeeell, since the person was asking about USD, it might be safe to assume they're in the US.

We don't pay customs fees on stuff, so under-declaring a package might be more harm than good for us (if it's lost, insurance... etc)

I always pay Via PayPal in both USA an JP Volks web Stores. No Worries, no issues. All Clean and easy
