Important Notice About Japan Scissors USA

Our primary U.S. customer service and returns address is in Laguna Beach, California.

Japan Scissors also works through international operations and supply relationships in Australia and Japan, including our presence in Saitama, Japan, where we coordinate selected Japanese scissor models and brand relationships, including Mina Scissors, Ichiro Shears, Juntetsu Shears, and future Japanese brands. We also sell selected premium products from non-Japanese specialist brands, including Jaguar, which is a German/Solingen brand.
Orders placed on jpscissors.com may be fulfilled from the United States, Japan, Australia, or approved supply partners depending on authentic stock availability, brand lead times, tariff conditions, and the fastest reliable shipping route.

FOR WHEN YOU BUY PRODUCTS
(a)By submitting an order for purchase of a Product using the Website’s functionality (Order) you represent and warrant that:
(i)you have the legal capacity and are of sufficient age to enter into a binding contract with us; and
(ii)you are authorised to use the debit card, credit card, PayPal account, or other payment method you provide with your Order.
(b)Submitting an Order is your offer to purchase the selected Product in exchange for the amount displayed at checkout.
(c)An Order is accepted when we approve payment and send you an order confirmation or processing email.
(d)You acknowledge that jpscissors.com is our U.S. online store, operated by Nippon Shears Pty Ltd under the Japan Scissors trading name, with U.S. customer service and returns support through our Laguna Beach, California address.
(a)Descriptions: We try to ensure that Product descriptions, images, model names, sizes, steel information, country-of-origin information, and included accessories are accurate. Product images may vary slightly because of lighting, screen display, image quality, supplier photography, or minor manufacturer updates.
(b)Authentic Products: Japan Scissors sells authentic professional hair scissors and related Products sourced through brand relationships, authorised reseller arrangements, approved distributors, supplier partners, or verified supply channels. Authorised dealer or authorised reseller status may vary by brand, territory, and model, and product pages or brand pages may provide further detail where available.
(c)Japanese, German and Global Brands: “Made in Japan” is used for models that are identified as manufactured in Japan. “Japanese steel” means the Product uses Japanese steel or Japanese steel components, but this does not always mean the full Product is manufactured in Japan. Jaguar is a German/Solingen brand and is not represented as a Japanese-made brand unless a specific product page states otherwise. Some private-label or partner brands may be organised through our Japan-based coordination network, including our presence in Saitama, Japan.
(d)Product Specifications: Product specifications such as steel type, origin, warranty period, handle type, edge type, size, and included accessories are provided based on manufacturer information, supplier information, internal product records, and product-page data. If a specification is important to your purchase decision, please contact us before ordering so we can confirm the latest available information for that model.
(e)Size: Scissor sizes are normally listed in inches and are supplied according to the manufacturer’s sizing. Please check the selected size carefully before purchase. Exchanges for a different size are handled under our 30-day return and exchange policy.
(f)Risk and Title: Title in the Products passes to you after payment is received in full. Risk in the Products passes on delivery to the shipping address you provide, except where applicable law provides otherwise. We will assist with carrier issues, lost parcels, or damaged shipments where reasonably possible.
(a)All prices on jpscissors.com are:
(i)per unit unless otherwise stated;

(b)You must pay the amount shown at checkout at the time of placing your Order.
(c)U.S. Shipping and Import-Cost Position: For eligible U.S. orders placed on jpscissors.com, the price shown at checkout is intended to include standard delivery and any required import or tariff handling that Japan Scissors arranges for the order. If we choose to fulfil a U.S. order from Japan, Australia, or another approved supply location because of stock availability, brand availability, tariff conditions, or faster routing, that fulfilment choice will not increase the customer’s checkout cost unless an additional charge is clearly shown before payment.
(d)No Surprise Delivery Charges for Eligible U.S. Orders: Where jpscissors.com states that shipping and import handling are included for a U.S. order, Japan Scissors will arrange the shipment so the customer is not charged extra delivery duties because the order shipped from outside the United States. If a carrier or customs authority contacts you about an unexpected import charge on an eligible U.S. order, please contact us before paying where possible so we can review and assist.
(e)Other Countries and Special Orders: For orders outside the United States, wholesale orders, special orders, or orders from another Japan Scissors regional website, duties, taxes, customs charges, brokerage fees, or import costs may be handled differently. Any such charges may remain the customer’s responsibility unless the applicable checkout or regional store clearly states they are included.
(f)GST and Taxes: Australian GST may not apply to international sales delivered outside Australia. Other taxes may apply depending on the destination and the applicable website or market.
(g)Card Surcharges and Payment Providers: We may use third-party payment providers. Their terms, conditions, and privacy policies may apply to the payment processing component of your purchase.
(h)Pricing Errors: If we discover a clear pricing or checkout error, we may contact you to correct the order, offer cancellation, or provide another suitable resolution. If an order is cancelled due to a pricing error and payment has been captured, the amount paid will be refunded to the original payment method.
(a)U.S. Customer Focus: jpscissors.com is the U.S. Japan Scissors online store. We aim to provide reliable delivery to U.S. customers while keeping access to authentic Japanese, German, and other premium scissor models.

(c)Shipping Carriers: We may use FedEx, DHL, UPS, USPS, Australia Post, Japan Post, or another suitable carrier or logistics partner depending on the order and fulfilment location.
(d)Delivery Timeframes: Delivery estimates are estimates only. Delays may occur because of customs processing, carrier issues, weather, peak season volume, stock transfers, supplier delays, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
(e)Delivery Issues: If your tracking shows an issue, if the package appears delayed, or if the parcel arrives damaged, please contact us promptly at support@jpscissors.com so we can help investigate with the carrier or fulfilment partner.
