Not sure where to buy a product in Japan?
Looking for a rare item but don’t know where to start?
Need help identifying a product from a photo?
Our Deep Research Service is designed to help.
What Is Deep Research?
Deep Research is an online research and recommendation service for customers who need help finding information before making a purchase.
Unlike our Easy Buy Service, you do not need a product URL.
Simply tell us what you’re looking for, and we’ll research it for you.
What Can We Help With?
Our Deep Research Service can assist with:
- Finding products from photos
- Searching for rare or discontinued items
- Comparing prices from multiple Japanese stores
- Checking product availability
- Recommending alternative products
- Finding official retailers and trusted sellers
- Researching limited-edition or event-exclusive items
- Creating personalized shopping recommendations based on your budget
- Building custom shopping lists (for example, Japanese snacks, cosmetics, stationery, or souvenirs)
- Helping you discover unique Japanese products you may not know about
Deep Research Can Also Help You Discover New Treasures
Looking for Recommendations?
Deep Research is not only for finding specific products.
We can also create custom recommendations based on your interests and budget.
Examples:
- Recommend ¥10,000 worth of Japanese snacks
- Build a Japanese stationery starter set
- Suggest the best Japanese cosmetics within your budget
- Create a retro gaming collection plan
- Recommend unique gifts from Japan
Think of us as your personal shopping researcher in Japan.
Service Fee
- The fee is charged regardless of whether a purchase is made.
- The fee becomes non-refundable once research has started.
How It Works
Submit a request with as much information as possible. Examples include:
- Product name
- Brand name
- Photos
- Screenshots
- Description of the item
The more information you provide, the better we can assist.
We will search Japanese websites, online marketplaces, retailer stores, and other available sources.
Our goal is to provide the most useful information possible.
We will send you a report that may include:
- Product information
- Available sellers
- Price comparisons
- Product alternatives
- Availability status
- Recommendations
After receiving the report, you can choose whether you would like to purchase the item.
If you decide to buy, our Easy Buy Service may be used to complete the purchase.
