PhiladelphiaThat's news to me. I've never had a problem ordering G-Shocks from Japan. Maybe this would just be for laptops or something.

No, a seller on eBay from Japan that has shipped me a few g-shocks via EMS has now said that he won't ship them any longer unless he removes the battery. Apparently a new rule in Japan

PhiladelphiaI hope this doesn't become a problem. I still haven't heard many people complaining about this. Maybe only certain dealers are complying with this rule?
