Heya guys, long time no see.

I'mma head up straight to the point:
I've ordered all my previous kpop albums on Amazon (which were 2 in total, cause I still had some giftcards and stuff like that - others are all used ones from ebay, lol) but they are actually way 2 overprized over here in Germany (I'm not gonna spend 23€ for a TWICE album I could get for 10€-15€)



So does anyone from western europe know good kpop online stores? I would want to spend around 100€, so there is no point for me to buy from 30€+ shipping stores (Talking 'bout you, KPOPTOWN)


Most online stores mark those orders as a 'gift', so I'm not that worried about customs tax tbh.

Thank u :3

Is ktown4u expensive for you too, the shipping.

This is a german website DAEBAK K-Pop Shop
They are still pretty pricey but it's basically shipping included already (since they had to get it shipped themselves)
I used to buy from yesasia when getting more than 2 albums because of the free shipping, always ended up a bit cheaper than other sides iirc. but i had some problems with them and havent bought anything there for a long time now.
Currently using Ktown4u, the shipping price is always reasonable, have bought a lot of albums the last 1-2 months there.

I think for us is cheaper in singapore, theirs need to cross the Atlantic or Pacific ocean.

Edit - above is for american users, i think op is from germany if i remember correctly.

I know I pay a pretty penny to ship k-pop to Australia. But I don't always do it, since it's so deathly expensive.

KPOPTOWN is 37USD -> 32€ just for shipping, biggest bruh moment. I will take a look at KPOPmart tho, thanks! I'll reply again later.

ktown4u is probably the worst option I have, sitting at around 35€ shipping costs, lol

Replying to the rest in next post

Daebak, Neo Tokyo and J-Store Germany are all 2 pricey, even Amazon is cheaper, I would end up even worse at daebak spending ~100€

Oooh and I forgot to ask:
Actually yesasia seemed to be a very good option to me, may I ask which problems you were facing?

it was at the end of 2019, i ordered a few albums way before all the covid mess (they were ready to ship) and they took like 3-4 months to deliver it, which they didnt, it got lost/sent back and they didnt want to refund me at first, i ordered 5 times before that, with the same address, so no idea how it happened

its fine, i did end up getting the refund, but that all happened like 5 months ago, i'd still say to maybe give it a try

Atm I'm looking at kpopmart (ty @gayzone), but if I end up not buying from their site, I'll probably give yesasia a try
