Fancy Surprise! International Shop ☆ How To Order ☆



Fancy Surprise now ships internationally!

"I hope that you will enjoy a happy daily life with Fancy Surprise! illustrations and goods♡" - Manamoko, Fancy Suprise


You can now order clothing and accessories, along with other adorable items, from the kawaii brand Fancy Surprise! This is an exciting change, but the website is in Japanese so you may have trouble understanding how to order your new goodies.

This guide will walk you through ordering from the Fancy Surprise Webshop!

~How to purchase~

The Fancy Surprise Homepage
The homepage is easy to navigate once you understand the categories on the left sidebar. Here is a translation for ease of use!

Once you've picked your items, click "Add to cart" on the item page. 

If you're buying clothing, you can pick the colour and size.

The colour/size options chart
A size guide - note that they use flat measurements!

At The Checkout...

When inputting your address, you can just insert the whole thing into Address Line One - Leave the postcode section blank, since it only accepts Japanese postcodes.

Input it like this: 12 Something Street, City, County/State/Prefecture, Postcode, Country

*EDIT 20TH of OCTOBER, 2018
The cart method has hanged since and a lot of people are recieving errors, so I came up with a workaround. I have confirmed with Manamoko/Fancy Surprise that this workaround is suitable.
Insert the number "0000000" into the postcode section - that's SEVEN zeros!!
DO NOT click the button next to it - this searches for the Japanese postcode and will autocomplete the address, which isn't required here.
Then continue with your address line one and two - If you're able to insert your entire address here then use it. 
I was unable to but I used address line 2 and received an error, so things may be different in the first box? Let me know! 
If you also receive an error then continue with your regular address lines and leave the rest for now.



Click the option at the bottom of the drop-down box - this says "Overseas"
Once you've entered everything, click the orange button to continue. The next page will show the postage options. Since we're ordering from outside of Japan we can only use the last option which is Airmail.
This option is cheaper than EMS and faster than SAL!
You will be shown how much your postage costs around here.

IMPORTANT > Below the postage options there will be a blank box at the bottom below the addresses/receiver information etc, allowing you to leave a note - In this box, insert your full address and postcode with the correct spacing/formatting!



You can now pick your payment option - I'm picking PayPal! 

After you click continue, it'll confirm your order before redirecting you to PayPal. It'll be in Japanese until you log in, but it's easy enough to work out.

EDIT 23/11/19:
Nowadays rather than redirecting you to PayPal, you just confirm your order and it'll complete your purchase. The final price will include the 10% Japanese tax rates but this will be removed later on. See the next step for details.

Once you have entered your details and confirmed, you will see a final confirmation screen:


EDIT 23/11/19:
Now you'll recieve two confirmation emails from "Fancy Surprise!". One is an automatic confirmation and another is thanking you for your order. If you click on the email you'll see it's just a summary of your order.
The third email "RE:" is important - It contains a PayPal invoice link like so:
https://www.paypal.com/invoice/p/(lots of numbers)
Click on the invoice link and pay for your order using PayPal.
This way you'll receive a tax discount which reduces your order cost by 10%! This is because only Japanese residents have to pay the tax.

The bottom two can be ignored but the th


And... you're done!
