I ordered Nexus 5 on Nov 4 via Google play Japan. It has been shipped & delivered to Vpost Japan on 6 Nov but till now, no contact from Vpost. Anyone in the same boat as me?

Also, for my 16GB white model, Google deducted SGD $517 from my POSB account. Is it the same price for you guys?

39,800 yen = $502 only! why Google deduct $517 from my acc?
There is someone also in the same boat as you in regards to vPost. As for the discrepancy in the price, when you pay by credit cards in foreign currency, the banks will follow the conversion of currency done by Visa or Mastercard and will further charge a 1.5% +/- in fees.

Same period of time. I'm using Jshopper's Tenso too.

how long jshoppers tenso need to process once arrived?
I know the other tenso need 1 day

me too - using tenso Japan. Within 1 working day to notify you of the forwarding fees (do check your email ard 10pm - SG time). Try to settle ASAP to have your item shipped the next working day.

For my case, item received by tenso Japan in the morning on 5 Nov. Received email of forwarding fees 5 Nov night and made my payment ard 11pm. Item dispatched to SG via EMS on 6 Nov, 6pm. Hope I can receive my item by tomorrow if everything go smooth :)

I believe tenso Japan (Jshoppers) has the lowest forwarding fees (Yen1411/set) as compared to Tenso (Yen1830) & vPost JP (?)

Yup. Tenso (Jshoppers) have some sort of ongoing promotion, explains the low EMS price plus free insurance.

Hey guys! I finally ordered my Nexus 5. Just to confirm, if I use vPost, my VP ID should be infront of my name right? In the same line? And on average how long does it take to recieve the confirmation email? Or any email at all.

the consolidation in tenso not worth it imo. I think because N5 packaging already super compact.

to ship 2x32GB (1 package), it is 2490yen, so 2 package seperately is 4980yen

If i consolidate, with the service fees etc, they estimate 4880yen.

100 yen difference and need to wait 1 extra day. lol
