Tokyo Pirates

Hey everyone! I'm excited to say, Accio Tokyo now has a blog and Facebook page!

https://www.facebook.com/Accio-Tokyo-216542558729864/

http://acciotokyo.com/blog/

You can catch up on the latest trends in Japan, featured products, stores, and, general news there. We're also looking at doing Closet Child updates again (time-permitting), so those will be soon to follow!

The new website is officially up! Tokyo Pirates has joined Accio Tokyo at http://www.acciotokyo.com

Feel free to browse around the website, and if you have any feedback let us know at [email protected]! There’s still a lot of work to be done, but we will be working like crazy to try and improve and progress.

Hello everyone,

Super important announcement time! I know I’ve not updated for a while which is because I have been moving house, but more importantly creating a whole new shopping service and website! It will run the same way as Tokyo Pirates at first (email and Paypal), but I am working with a partner and we have a lot of plans to make the whole shopping process smoother and easier for you in the future. We will be working to get credit card payments up as soon as we can too. It will take time, but I hope you’ll be patient with us!

So, from 25th February 2016, Tokyo Pirates shopping service will be closing permanently. In its place, Accio Tokyo will be opening, and you can visit the website at http://www.acciotokyo.com from that date.

For those of you that have shopped with me before, the main changes will be as follows:

1) Everything will be on a central website.

I’ve been using blogs, facebook and tumblr until now, and it has often confused people as they don’t quite know where to check. Now everything will be at acciotokyo.com where you can go for updates including latest sales, popular items in Tokyo, and just awesome things we see around the shops. Our plan is to try and bring Tokyo to you as much as possible (specializing in fashion and accessories, but ready to shop for anything)!

2) Paypal fees will no longer be charged

We have adjusted commission to include all fees, so no Paypal fees will be charged for payment. This includes the shipping invoice. We will be taking that cost on ourselves. You will know all costs up front excluding shipping costs, so that there will be no nasty surprises.

3) There are now two of us working for you, which means faster answers to emails, and faster service.

4) Travel fees will be 600 yen.

I have moved house and I will no longer be the only shopper.

5) Auction services and orders through apps such as Mercari, Fril, etc. will stop.

We will only be able to accept online and in-store orders. We may consider auctions for the future, but for now I’m afraid it is too difficult logistically.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I just want to say a big thank you to everyone who has shopped with me! It’s been so much fun, and an absolute pleasure to shop for everyone. It’s been a learning process too, and certainly a lot of hard work, but I’ve loved doing it. It’s my dream to make shopping as smooth as a dream for you all, and that’s what I’ll be working towards. Feedback, of course, is completely welcome. So, feel free to email me and let me know what you want/need in a shopping service. You can email at our new address: [email protected]

Alice and the Pirates and Baby the Stars Shine Bright are having a “sparkling sale” at Shinjuku, Tokyo stores.

Dresses and other items are 30%-50% off. I can’t remember all of the items that have been reduced, but pictured above are samples of some of the reduced dresses.

As an example, Melty Nightmare Chocolate is usually 26,784 yen and is reduced to 13,394 yen! This is a limited price during the sale only. They tend to go back up after the sale period is over, so if you want something you should hurry.

Shopping service announcement!

I thought you all might enjoy some pictures of a place I visited recently. This is a resort in Sagamiko. Every year they decorate the entire place in hundreds and thousands of lights for their Sagamiko Illumillion event.
