This Amazon Prime Day on 12-13 July will be the same and yet a little different.
With every e-commerce platform under the sun offering some form of a sales festival every other day, is Amazon Prime Day still a big deal?
Opinions will differ of course, but what is pure fact is that they now offer a Japanese selection from Amazon Japan, which means that products from popular Japanese brands such as Pokémon, Nintendo, Wacom, Yamazaki, Wing/Wacoal, Iris Ohyama, and Bandai, will be readily available through your local Prime account. Convenience is the watchword here, especially if you are looking for a more convenient way to buy Japanese products.
Amazon says that they are working on expanding the product categories, so check out the page now and then to see if your favourite items are introduced to the store.

Non-Prime customers will enjoy free delivery on eligible items with a minimum spend of $40 (Singapore dollars, not USD), and you can combine items from Amazon US and Amazon Japan in the same basket.
