Has anyone in the US bought kumihimo cord from Japan?

[John C]

I'm looking to replace some silk kumihimo cords on some inro and yatate. I was looking at a company called Atelier Miyagi in Japan (they sell through Etsy), however the whole customs thing has me reticent to purchase. Does anyone have experience with this? Were there any customs fees?

If they send DHL most likely not a problem, I`ve purchased all sorts of things from China shipped by DHL just shows up at my door like an amazon purchase does.  But.... might be different if you are importing a thousand yards of the stuff.

I’ve dealt with the eBay seller matsu-kaze.Japan, he is reliable and trustworthy and sells a variety of inro cord.
