Michael Ray Looney Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 Anyone ordered from FISHINGSHOP.KIWI ? maine y yak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maine y yak Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 Yes! This shop is totally legit. Here's what I did-they are a clearing house of sorts for in stock items in Japan. They are Russian operated. They actually have a sales department and will respond and proactively initiate communication if necessary. Everything I ordered was not indicated 'pre-order only' (which I'm sure means 'out of stock but can be bought' so I ordered stuff that was available. I got several buzz jets several 250s. A giant walker (deps) a bull shooter, some hand tools, line and small terminal. Some deps jigs among others. There is exchange rates and shipping costs to factor in. They were helpful. I received my stuff in a very well packed box via DHL. I needed to go to DHL website so 'no contact delivery' was my selection (no signature required). Paid my bread, waited 2 weeks I believe and got my stuff. It was easy. It looked sketch but it's Def legit. Hope this helps!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ray Looney Posted February 18 Author Report Share Posted February 18 I noticed the shipping is not available until after you place order. Was the shipping outrageous? maine y yak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maine y yak Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 No it's comparable to Digitaka. They won't accept or charge you until they complete your order and you actually confirmed with them that you accept the charges if I remember correctly. That's how I got in email w them. Gimme a sec and I'll dig around my inbox to confirm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maine y yak Posted February 18 Report Share Posted February 18 First image screenshot of email communication with total before 'confirmed' Second slide indicates shipping charge etc. My box was roughly 3# if I remember correctly. BUT shipping is crazy now. This was 1 year ago. Fwiw There are some cool baits in there. The plastics alone make me want to order again. Ok that's all my info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ray Looney Posted February 19 Author Report Share Posted February 19 Thanks for the info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brootalititties Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 Other thing that’s a little weird is when you check out they don’t charge you right away, they send you an order confirmation email with an invoice that you pay. Kinda weird but totally legit maine y yak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just placed another order from them .. they have Quads for half of what they are here .. plus some hard to find Studio Composites handle components. It took them 3 business days to confirm my order and take payment (slower than last time I ordered) but I'm sure everything will get here whenever it's supposed to. Great site. Quirky and robust.
