Differences between KanjiGraphy's shopping cart and
PayPal's shopping cart


On this site you can choose between two kinds of shopping carts. One is KanjiGraphy's original shopping cart, and the other is by Paypal. As each shopping cart has its own features, please use whichever fits you best. The differences between KanjiGraphy's shopping cart and PayPal's shopping cart are as follows:

1. KanjiGraphy's shopping cart is fixed and the prices are calculated in Japanese yen, being affected by the currency exchange rate fluctuations. The price will be calculated on the basis of the exchange rate valid at the time of the payment if your currency is not Japanese yen. If you use PayPal's shopping cart all the prices are fixed and expressed in US dollars. So if your bank account 's currency is US dollars and your shipping address is in USA and if you buy one CD, your payment would be 29.99 US$ for a CD, plus 13.00 US dollars for shipping. The total would be 42.99 US dollars. That's all and your payment won't be affected by foreign currency exchange rate.

2. With KanjiGraphy's shopping cart, shipping cost is calculated according to the shipping address and the weight of the items that you purchase. So if you purchase one CD and your shipping address is in California, USA, the total would be 3800 JPYen for CD plus 1200 JPYen for shipping. The total would be 5000 JPYen, and the price in US dollars depends on the foreign currency exchange rate at the time of invoicing by your credit card company. With PayPal's shopping cart, shipping cost is calculated according to the price of the items that you purchase. So if you purchase one CD, shipping cost would be 13.00 US dollars no matter where you live and irrespective of its weight.

3.Single Image purchase is not available with PayPal’s shopping cart. Only CD/s’ purchase is available with PayPal. Please use KanjiGraphy's shopping cart when you place a single image order.

4. Due to the complexity of the shipping fee, PayPal's shopping cart can not be used to buy traditional Japanese goods (lanterns etc.)

Please note, as a matter of course, that the industry-standard Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encrypts all your personal information on both shopping carts.

For details about the shopping procedures of each shopping cart, please refer to the instructions below. For detailed information about shipping cost refer to the "Shipping and handling" section of this page.
