How to Buy Pre-Owned Hermès and Rolex from Japan Online and Have It Shipped Abroad
Share
The short answer: Yes, you can buy a pre-owned Hermès bag or Rolex from a Japanese store online and have it shipped to you. At global.luxaria.jp, prices for overseas delivery are export prices that do not include Japanese consumption tax; the shipping fee is shown on the order confirmation screen; orders usually ship within 2 business days; and customs duties and import taxes in your country are paid by you. Because returns are not accepted after purchase, check the condition and ask your questions before you buy.
Japan's pre-owned market is known for vintage bags and used watches in careful condition, and many travellers first meet it in Tokyo stores. This guide is for buyers who want the same items without the trip. It explains how ordering, prices, shipping and returns work at LUXARIA, a pre-owned luxury store in Ginza, Tokyo, and what to check before you pay.
Can you buy from a Japanese pre-owned store online and ship abroad?
Many Japanese stores sell only in Japan, or only in their shop. LUXARIA ships overseas from its online store, global.luxaria.jp, which is available in English, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese as well as Japanese.
- Overseas tracking is through UPS.
- Shipping is charged depending on the item, and you see the fee before you confirm the order.
- We ship by UPS with insurance to 33 countries and regions, including the US, Canada, the UK, France, Germany, Italy and much of Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, mainland China, the UAE, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. The options for your item and address appear at checkout.
How are prices shown? Export prices without Japanese tax
When an item is shipped outside Japan, it is sold as an export, so the price does not include Japan's consumption tax. The prices you see for overseas delivery are these export prices.
This is different from buying in a Tokyo store. In a store, you pay the price including tax and, since 1 November 2026, get the tax refunded after customs confirms the items when you leave Japan. Read more: Japan tax-free shopping in 2026
What you pay in total when you buy online is:
- the item price (export price, without Japanese consumption tax),
- the shipping fee shown on the order confirmation screen, and
- customs duties and import taxes in your country, which are paid by you as the recipient (this is also stated under the price on each product page).
We do not quote duty rates, because they depend on your country, the item and the time of import. Please check with your country's customs before you order.
Step by step: ordering on global.luxaria.jp
- Choose the item and press "Add to Cart".
- Check your cart, then proceed. You can log in, register as a member, or buy without registering.
- Enter your details: name, email address, address and phone number.
- Choose the delivery address, shipping method and payment method. For overseas addresses, the delivery date and time cannot be specified.
- Confirm the order. Check the items, your details, the delivery address and the payment method, including the shipping fee, then press "Confirm Order".
- Watch for the confirmation email. You will receive an automatic email. If anything is wrong, contact us straight away.
Which payment methods work for overseas orders?
According to our payment guide, these methods can be used when shipping to an overseas address:
- PayPal: you can pay with your PayPal account or with a credit or debit card through PayPal.
- Bank transfer, including from a bank account outside Japan (the bank details are in the confirmation email). The transfer fee is paid by you. We ship after we confirm your payment. Until then the item stays listed, and if another customer pays first, the item goes to that customer. If we cannot confirm your payment within 2 days of the order, we will contact you, and if there is no reply the order is cancelled.
Installment payments (shopping credit) and cash on delivery are not available for overseas addresses.
Shipping: how long does it take?
- Orders to overseas addresses are usually shipped within 2 business days after the item is prepared, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.
- Orders paid by bank transfer are shipped after payment is confirmed.
- After shipping, you can track the parcel on the UPS website with the number in the shipping confirmation email.
Returns: why you should ask before you buy
Please read this before you order. Under our Return Policy:
- We do not accept returns, refunds or discounts after purchase, including for reasons such as size or colour.
- Orders cannot be cancelled for the customer's convenience.
- If an item is damaged in transit, contact us within 7 days of receiving it. Contact after 7 days cannot be accepted.
- If a parcel cannot be delivered and is returned to us, it is treated as a cancellation, and the cancellation charges in the Return Policy apply.
- We do not provide our own warranty for mechanical failures. This matters for watches: ask about the movement and service history before you buy.
So the simplest safeguard is this: message us before you pay. Send the item number on WhatsApp and ask about anything you are unsure of, such as wear on the corners and handles, the accessories, or the stamp.
How to read the condition rank
Every listing shows a condition rank. At LUXARIA the ranks mean:
| Rank | What it means |
|---|---|
| New | No missing accessories; the same condition as when shipped from the maker. For watches, the bracelet links have not been adjusted. There may be scratches from storage or transport. |
| Unused item | Not used. There may be scratches from storage or transport, or some accessories may be missing. |
| Used super beautiful condition | Used, but shows no sign of use. |
| Used condition | Used, in good condition with few signs of use. |
| Used Good Product | Used, with few signs of use visible to the naked eye; relatively good condition. |
| Sign of use | Looks used at first glance. |
Ranks are defined differently from store to store, so always read the definition on the site you buy from.
How are items authenticated?
- Every item is authenticated before sale.
- Our site explains that inspection is always carried out by more than one person, and only items that pass an inspection of more than 50 points are offered.
- The site also explains that appraisals are done by two or more appraisers with over ten years of experience in the trade, together with AI.
- For Hermès, the stamp that shows the year of production is checked. For example, "B" is 2023 and "W" is 2024.
