Hi everyone,


I recently checked out what i thought was quite a cool Spiewak N1 Deck jacket on sale on the Japanese Rakuten shopping website.

Anyway, i was on the point of ordering this particular jacket without the assistance of any middleman/proxy since it appears that Rakuten have now layed out an online  `How to Shop in 4 easy steps` guide for International customers.

Well i looked that at this guide and it does appear to make ordering quite straight forward.Everything and every section is given a respective English translation (along with examples). I thought a bit more about this jacket and about this translated guide and i thought i`d try out an order

Sadly for me, the size 38 Deck jacket sold out the next day when i`d braced myself to try out my first order attempt.Even so i do think i`d definately give the whole Rakuten ordering process a go in light of this new step by step guide.

Just thought this might be of interest for anyone interested in ordering from the stores affiliated with Rakuten website.
