Hi folks.
I've made an error and purchased a Toshiba Libretto 60/70 Li-Ion battery, new, from Yahoo Auctions Japan via a buying service.
I had verified in advance that Japan Post will handle Lithium batteries, however I missed the fact that the battery must be inside of a computer during international shipment otherwise the parcel is noncompliant and subject to some potentially irritating issues. The buying service accordingly will not ship it anywhere outside of Japan.
They've offered to ship it to a Japanese address, or to dispose of it.
Do we have any members possibly interested in this item, located in Japan, who might want it, or who might know a trick to get it out of the country for me and are willing to act as an additional proxy?
The financial loss is not large, I just don't want the item going to waste.
