karadin.livejournal.comIf you buy a lot of goods from Japan (as I do) this handy calculator will give you an idea on what you should expect a package to cost (if you know size and weight) and now you might know if a seller is padding charges, for example, I've seen charges for a CD (EMS insured international) that should cost $20USD, being charged at $35-45USD.
Most of your charges are in shipping, so if you can, find a seller or a personal shopping site (such as I-TM4U) that will bundle goods for you.
