okay I called Citibank and they said there was a charge and refund of $2+ yesterday from google. is that the verification process?

Yes. Should be a 200 yen charge

 

[ntoken]

Anyone get this error also?

your cc card billing info u put SG address??

if you put a fake JP address u risk the account being locked,
if you use your SG address, the order seems to get this error.

Yes. Should be a 200 yen charge

so how do I know whether the verification process is successful or not? do I still need to call the bank to add the tenso address and phone number so that it matches their records...?

Don't need. The fact that they can do the $2 charge already means they're ready to take money from you.

Just a quick question guys. Do you receive email when you place the order ? my order shows up at Google wallet as pending but i didnt receive any email about my order.

Google Play Japan, using tenso.

EDIT: nvm, called the bank, they cleared it =D

You might want to call CitiBank anyway and ask if there's a pending transaction by Google Play in yen, and if there is, allow it.

You should receive an email at your google japan account if there are any order problems.

My iPhone 4 charging head is still going strong for my Nexus 4! It'll continue to support my Nexus 5

This is the summary of my 32GB black order from Google Japan:

Nov 1 Ordered on PlayStore late night
Nov 3 Shipped out of HK to Japan
Nov 6 Arrived Japan
Nov 7 vPost confirmed item received and gave me details, incl frt charges

The vPost memo said delivery will be 5-8 working days, but should be earlier, from my past experience with them.

vPost charges are broken down as below (include a 10% discount under SGLAUNCH10 promotion code):

Total costs $69.36
Discount - 2.64
Net $66.72 (includes $41.76 for GST)

So, net vPost cost is $24.96, a couple $ higher than Tenso (Yen1830); essentially a wash. For those who can get higher discounts (up to 30%), the net cost will be lower than Tenso's.

So, I will monitor how long it will take to get delivery from vPost Japan; hopefully it is as good as Tenso. As a Singaporean, I like to support vPost whenever possible.
