amazon.co.jp

Hello, i try'd to buy japanese books for study at amazon.co.jo, but the only for me available payment method is to pay with credit card, and i haven't one.

Does anyone know where i can buy gift cards for .co.jp ?

Where are you located in? The gift certificates are available at convenience stores and some mass merchandiser stores in Japan. Also available online, but for that you need either debit or credit card to purchase.

Hey, and thats my problem. i haven't a credit card, and i come from austria ^^

but i need some books for study. these books cost in vienna 3x more as in japan.

So i try to get amazon.co.jp gift cards to purchase it from japan

I think as you know, if you are trying to order the Amazon.co.jp from Austria, that it is necessary to use a credit card. Even if you buy the Amazon gift card, the payment is required by credit card. Is there a service of virtual cards to Austria?

if you buy gift card from 7-11 or lawson or any convenience stores, you dont need credit card anymore. You just enter it in the gift card as payment

Sounds like the OP is located outside of Japan, which means they are going to have a difficult time purchasing anything from amazon.co.jp without a credit card.

Have you looked into prepaid visa cards? It might be possible to use those on Japanese sites.

Also, remember that you'll get charged with customs taxes when receiving your package.
Be sure to research the applicable rates in your country.
I have had a few bad surprises when ordering books on amazon jp, where cheap books, when adding transporter fee and customs taxes, went up 3 times the price they were originally.

I live in America so I don't know if they ship to Australia, but I use honto. You can choose different shipping methods, as opposed to Amazon who only offers EMS. I know you can use a debit card to pay, do you have one of those?
