If you live in Europe and find your mouse-finger anxiously trembling at the thought of importing an anime vagina from Japan due to crazy tax or customs officers potentially chasing you down the street, then good news! Long-running Japanese retailer otonaJP have now opened a European warehouse.
Based in Germany and accompanied by a new version of their website exclusively for European customers, all the stress of waiting forever before you can masturbate into something has been taken care of. You’ll also avoid getting slugged by import fees and customs.
Product prices are a tad higher than their main otonaJP site (which is expected), but nothing too extreme from what I’ve seen. In the end these costs should balance out with the lower shipping. Plus I mean – again – stuff will arrive quicker and with its original packaging intact.
All orders will ship from Germany via ‘Hermes’ courier service (I’m not too familiar with shipping companies over that way, sorry!) You can check out their full payment and shipping details here.
Update 24/09: Following feedback, otonaJP has now switched to DHL for shipping instead of Hermes. Cheers for the comments, everyone!
For now the European warehouse has a decent hand-picked (not poked) range of legacy best-sellers; stuff like the excellent Meiki no Saigen Marugoto: AIKA (review here) and Sujiman Kupa Lolinco Virgo (review here). There’s a few newer products too, but this’ll expand over time.
Just like your dick.
Of course, European customers can still use the main Japanese otonaJP site as usual, but this is just another option. Maybe you’ll save some time and money!
Hermes is a big nono, they just suck… 🙁
Hopefully they add dhl as an option later.
Oh no 🙁
I had some experience with Hermes in the past, it isn’t super bad but shipping tends to be slower than other services.
Prices seem to be cheaper compared to buying from their main site and then paying customs atleast for dutch people. Downside however, the opened a store in europe and didn’t include iDeal which is the main payment service in the Netherlands. So sadly I still won’t be using their services because iDeal killed my need for a credit card a long time ago.
Hence I am sticking to motsutoys for now since that is in fact a dutch retailer, even has a fully dutch website which is amazing because some of the translations are an absolute mess / just way to funny. Plus it has iDeal.
I do however welcome Otonajp into europe! More competition is always better for the customers!
“Lowest prices in europe” is not quite right on the most expensive onaholes like puni ana SPDX. Also Otona doesn’t offer free shipping after 80€ like Motsutoys. Still the prices for onatsuyu and the small onas are really interesting. And 15€ shipping is still better than 30+€ with only 2 onas in the cart on japan warehouse…
Hermes is commonly used because there so cheap, they can be hit or miss depending on where you live
I am really skeptical about the Hermes service
Just saw they changed to DHL shipping. Perhaps they realized that people rather have DHL than hermes.
I think the SPDX is about the only item that costs a few Euros more but except it, everything is much (and i mean much) cheaper. Placed an order and looking forward to see how its going.
Hi all, Ben from Otonajp here,
We are now using DHL within Europe rather than Hermes (after listening to customer feedback). We chose to go with them as they are a bit faster and they can also deliver directly to DHL pack stations.
More reason to try our European store: No tax – no checks – cheaper prices – efficient delivery service 😉
