Thanks for the offer, but after living abroad for more than 20 years, I have re-shippers in the US who do that for me on a regular basis, as well as providing me with a permanent US mailing address. There are waaay too many geographical restrictions when buying mail order these days, from license agreements to companies worried about credit card fraud, so I keep credit cards with US banks, bank accounts, and mail forwarding accounts. It makes life much simpler.
When I wanted to buy my reader, Amazon wouldn't ship a Sony to Japan. They deal with Sony-USA and that company can't interfere with sales for Sony-Japan. But Sony_Japan doesn't make a reader. I had to buy the reader from B&H Video, who deal with Sony-Canada, and they were allowed to send it to me. International business can be a real bother!
BTW... no law prohibiting sending tea to Japan. There are some prohibitions about sending fresh food, but not for dried, canned, frozen, etc.
