Frequently Asked Questions
Do I pay IdolJapan.store for my CDs or Blu-rays?
No. IdolJapan.store never handles your payment details, credit card numbers, or shipping address. You checkout directly through CDJapan's checkout gateway.
Are first-press bonus photos and posters included?
Yes. When CDJapan lists a pre-order with external bonus items (外付け特典), such as raw member photos, clearfiles, or B2 promotional posters, those are packaged and shipped directly with your CDJapan package.
How do pre-orders and combined shipping work?
CDJapan allows you to consolidate multiple pre-orders into a single shipment if they release in the same month, significantly reducing your international courier costs. Use our Pre-Order Release Calendar drawer on the catalog page to plan consolidated monthly hauls.
