The first thing you want to do is sign up at Tenso. Tenso is a Japanese site, but you can access a completely English version just by clicking the English button at the top right. Follow the steps to sign up. Make sure when you enter your name to include your middle name, I initially forgot this and it caused some confusion later on. Make sure your address is correct, as that is what they will be shipping to. After that, Tenso will give you a special address that you will use to enter in websites. This basically ensures that all your items go to Tenso's warehouse and are filed under your account. We'll come back to this when we sign up at Amazon Japan. The next important thing to do is to confirm your identity. Japanese law dictates that you must prove you are who you say you are in your account with legal documents. A driver's license should suffice, as long as it includes the full name, date of birth, and address that the account was created under. This is important. Make sure that the account info you entered matches the proof you submit. Click on the "submit documents" button on your account page to start the process. You can use a scan or a clear picture to submit the identity proof. This will take a day or two to go through, so in the meantime, let's sign up on Amazon Japan.

Now, we sign up at Amazon Japan. I want to reiterate that Tenso technically works with any site (as long as they ship to forwarding services) but is mainly useful with Amazon Japan. So, unlike European Amazons, you can't use an existing American Amazon account, so get ready to make a new one. Head on over to www.amazon.co.jp. If you're on Google Chrome, Amazon Japan should automatically translate to English. Sign up and follow the steps needed. Enter the email you want, the payment info, and most importantly, your Tenso address. I want to repeat this, because this is actually a common mistake. Enter your Tenso address, not your own. If you need help formatting the address, Tenso has a guide here. Once your account is set up, we can start shopping on Amazon Japan.

To properly find everything you want, you're going to want to copy the Japanese characters for Beyblade Burst into the search bar, which are ベイブレード バースト. Afterwards, the page with the products will pop up. Like I said before, Google Chrome automatically translates, however, the individual product pages do have a "display in English" option. Once you're ready, start picking out the items you want. You'll soon find why Amazon Japan is great: the prices.

The Japanese yen is great on the American dollar, so you'll be buying really cheaply. The boosters run for about $7, and the starters go for about $10. Not bad at all. The best part is that Amazon has sales all the time. The Kerbeus pictured is $7 instead of $10, and the Spriggan is $5 instead of $7. In my first order, I ended up saving around $25 in total on sales alone. In fact, I got the Valkyrie DX Starter, the Beystadium, and a Beylauncher for CHEAPER than a MSRP Start Dash Set. It's pretty rad. If you're unsure about the prices, Amazon does automatically convert yen to USD right on the product page, so you can see what you'll be paying in your own currency. Now, when you're shopping, you want to try and order from as few sellers as possible. When you look on each item page, you'll see this:

This is the seller selling the item. Sometimes though, the seller is different:

I'll explain why you want to reduce the number of sellers in a further step. But let me explain the different sellers on Amazon Japan. First, you have Amazon Japan themselves. These guys are the best option, as they always sell at MSRP, usually have sales, and are reliable with shipping. But Amazon doesn't always have everything in stock, so you'll have to go to another seller. Some sellers are fulfilled by Amazon, meaning that the company's stock is kept in Amazon warehouses. While prices may vary, they still use Amazon shipping services, which is good. Finally, you have third party sellers, who only use Amazon's website as a storefront. They have their own prices and their own shipping rates and techniques. Make sure to try and double check their options if you want to order from a third party. When you check out, make sure that you have everything you want in your cart, as you don't want to fragment your purchases. Once again, I'll explain why in a bit. This is the cool thing - basic shipping in Japan from Amazon is FREE. Japan is only the size of California, so Amazon doesn't charge anything for shipping (on most items). This way, you'll only pay for shipping once on Tenso. Pick your payment method, make sure your Tenso address is correct, and make sure to select the option to have all your items packed together. If you get a Beystadium, they may do a separate package for that simply due to its size. And don't worry about currency - Amazon converts whatever currency you're paying with into yen. Once your order goes through, we wait for it to arrive at Tenso!

Tenso will send you an email once your items have arrived (which should be 2-3 days with standard shipping). Go to your profile page, go to your items page, and make sure everything is accounted for. This is important - if you ordered from different sellers, or your order came in multiple packages, you're going to want to consolidate. All this means is that you're asking Tenso to put your multiple packages into one big package for them to send out, which will save you on paying shipping for each individual package. However, there is a consolidation fee. It's about five bucks for the service, but the price goes up the more packages you ask to consolidate. This is why you want to order from as few sellers as possible: you want the minimum number of packages to consolidate so the price doesn't skyrocket. If you want a guide on how to consolidate, Tenso has a guide here. It'll take a day or two for consolidation to go through, but once it does, they will weigh the package and you can now pay for them to ship it. Select the package or consolidated package and check out. Tenso will give you its calculated shipping cost automatically combined with the base Tenso service fee (which is about 6 dollars). There will be a bunch of options, but there's only two you want to look at: EMS and Registered SAL. EMS is the most costly, but arrives in about 4 days and comes with tracking. It's definitely a lot better if you ordered a lot of items at once, as it evens the cost of shipping out. The other option is Registered SAL, which is cheaper, but it takes about two weeks (but still includes tracking). To be honest, you're just going to want to go with EMS, but if you really need to save coin and are willing to wait, select Registered SAL. After you select your shipping service, you can select a payment method, whether it be credit card or PayPal. After you pay, Tenso will start preparing your package for shipment!

Tenso will send you an email once your package is shipped, and will provide tracking info. Because this is a foreign package, you will have to sign for it, so if you miss it at the door, you'll have to go to the post office and sign off for it. Once you get it though, enjoy! You just purchased new Beyblades straight from Japan for a great deal! Have fun and let it rip!
