Hello Everyone!
I’m sorry that I’ve been radio silent for so long! In between moving house and working, I haven’t had much time to update. (>.<) However, I have a few important announcements.
1) The shopping service renewal/relaunch has been postponed until January. The date is as yet undetermined. Until then, everything will be continuing as before, so all services still stand.
2) Auction orders will be accepted again. However, due to the time they take, commission will be a flat rate of 2,500 yen per auction. This is regardless of the price of your item, so even if it’s over 100,000 yen, commission will remain the same. :) I will not be able to take snipe orders at this time - regular bids only, sorry! I am busy right now, and do not wish to risk losing your items due to my schedule. Please be aware that if I get too busy, I may have to suspend auction orders again. If so, I will make an announcement via tumblr, the blog and facebook.
3) Lucky Pack 2015/2016 orders will be accepted from November 25th, 2015 at 10am (Japan Standard Time). Reservations before that exact time will not be accepted. After that time it will be on a first-come, first-served basis. I will have two slots available for the Liz Lisa suitcases. Unfortunately, I cannot take orders for the Angelic Pretty lucky pack release on the 1st January (if they are released on that date), but I will be able to get them after the initial release if they have not sold out.
Thanks for reading through. I’m going to put up a loooong Closet Child update soon. <3
Hello all,
I know I’ve been away for a while! Unfortunately, due to a personal emergency, the
in-store shopping service hiatus has been extended until February 16th.
After that it will resume as normal all going well. The online service
will still be ongoing. If you have an in-store order during this hiatus
period and it is not time-sensitive, please feel free to submit your
order again after the hiatus is over. So sorry for any inconvenience. >.<

This is just a quick note to let everyone know that online orders will still be accepted throughout the hiatus. :) In-store orders only will be unavailable. Thank you!

The Tokyo Pirates Shopping Service will be unable to accept anymore orders from now (29th December) until the 30th January. Current orders and lucky pack orders will still be processed as usual.
Sorry for the inconvenience! We’ll be back soon. :)

Tokyo Pirates will be on a partial hiatus from 19th December - 26th December. Online orders and lucky pack reserves will still be received, but unfortunately I will not be able to do in-store orders during that time. Sorry for the inconvenience!

The cut-off date for lucky pack and all other orders will be 30/12/2014
After that the Tokyo Pirates shopping service will be on hiatus from 1st January - 29th January.
That time will be dedicated to shipping out lucky packs and sorting any remaining orders. If I manage to get through things quickly, I may end the hiatus early, but I don’t know how busy things will be yet. Just wanted to let everyone know in advance! ^^

Hello all!
This is just to let you know I will be doing lucky packs this year. ^^ Reserves will be taken from now on and it will be first come, first served.
Regarding Shibuya 109 lucky packs, I will be making Liz Lisa lucky packs the first priority (going for them first). You can make reservations for D.I.A. and other brands too, but please bear in mind that I will attempt to buy them afterwards so chances will be lower. Also, Shibuya 109 lucky packs will only be purchased if they do not clash with the Angelic Pretty/Baby sales. (Usually the Shibuya and Harajuku/Shinjuku sales are on separate days, so this shouldn’t be a problem).
Thanks very much!

[EDIT - I realized having two email addresses might be a bit confusing for people, so it will continue to be one email address as usual. ^^ Please send any inquiries to contact@tokyopirates.com]
The online shopping service is up and running again. Please note that auction services are still suspended. Terms and conditions have changed and you can check them anytime here - http://tokyopirates.blogspot.jp/p/shopping-service-terms-and-conditions.html
For orders you can contact me as usual at - contact@tokyopirates.com
Commission fees remain the same rate. :) However, I am reducing in-store Baby/Alice and the Pirate/Triple Fortune reservations from 4,000 yen to 3,000 yen commission, so they are cheaper. ^^
Lastly, the in-store shopping service will be unavailable from the 16th - 24th. I apologize for the inconvenience, but I will be in Osaka and may not have access to email for some of that time.
Hey everyone! The shopping service is back in business, but things will be very slow for the first week or two due to a great, big backlog of inquiries (over 60 inquiries to sort through - thank you!). I’ll do my best to get through things as fast as possible and respond to your messages. Thanks for understanding!
