I was able to find a link for "Ask seller a question" (by guess and check) and I asked them (in english) if they shipped to the US and how much. I also used babelfish.yahoo.com to do some translating of some of the pages/fields. They responded with an email in very good english saying where to send a paypal payment to. It's kind of risky, but i'll take the risk.
2tight.jp is my homies store in Japan. He flies ALL OVER the place just to hit up record stores and meet up with different artists/collectors to buy stuff for his store. He flew to the Bay 3 times just to buy vinyl from me. Not to brag or anything but he once bought 2,000+ vinyl records from me and spent almost $3,000 to have it shipped back to Japan. i also took him to Rasputin and Amoeba Records and he dropped almost $1,000 at each store. dude has crazy money.
with all that said, i would say 99.5% of his stuff is all legit. He also hates bootlegs/bootleggers so i wouldnt be worried about ordering from his site.

i dont have a problem with reprints in general, japanese, german, wherever they came from, but if they are claimed as originals or got inefficient description form sellers offline, auctions, web shops, im against it and will hate on it.
reprinting stuff to help people get what is already very hard to find as original is positive, but reprinting it just to get the money fast thats a negative.
sadly its the "negative" option that takes the most part in this game, people selling stuff claiming legit, but when you hit them with the truth they changing the story sayin they didnt know.
complete list of official re-released/bootlegged albums should be made here for the benefit of all.

^^^haha probably same dude, but then again there are a couple Japanese dudes i ran into who visit the Bay a couple times a year to pick up a shit load of cds, tapes, vinyl. There could be some OFFICIAL rereleases on his site where he would meet up with certain artists to get their permission to get their albums repressed. Most of the time he said the artists would already have boxes of old albums just sitting in storage so most of them could be original 1st releases.
oh yeah, when he first came to visit the Bay i took him to City Hall Records and we both cleaned out most of their rare/hard-to-find titles. thats how i got most of my stuff in my collection and thats how he has alot of rare shit in his store.
