2 items from Chocoa that I covet

Can someone who reads Japanese tell me if shipping to the states is possible? (Google translate ain't telling me anything) because I really need some of this cuteness from the online store Chocoa. Particularly this number/days of the month rubber stamp set (it's the only stamp set that has any English, and numbers are universal). I just love the aesthetics of it all, the length of the rubber stamp (taller than versions found here), the little suitcase container, and most of all, the casual, hand drawn quality of the numbers and words. I like rubber stamps - I think it comes from fond memories of playing with my parents' personalized name stamps - but I don't like the rigid lines and cuts of most stamps you find here; these, however, really appeal to me.

I also really need this bento box playset for the kids (ok, for me too). The onigiri has seaweed and filling that you can remove and put back together. The other items (fishcake? radish?) can be sliced (seriously, whoever decided that velcro makes a great simulation for cutting through food is genius). We have the Melissa and Doug wooden sushi set and it's fine and all, but this is so much cuter.

They only deliver within Japan.


On this page it says "This website is only able to accept orders from Japan."

The only way customers abroad (like me) can purchase its products is to find somebody who lives in Japan (like my mother) and arrange shipment to her and ask her to ship to the US.

And it says there that the payment method they accept is limited, too. They only accept credit card payment when the merchandise is over 2100 yen.


Oh man, I really really really want those, too! Could we scrape up an airfare to Japan, if we all chipped in?
