When sending electrical appliances from Japan

Hello, I have a friend who wants to send some electronics from Japan to Oto-Los Angeles. A friend of mine wants to send some electrical appliances from Japan to Oto-Los Angeles, but I was wondering which shipping company he should use to save money and get there earlier ?
I have several boxes, and I heard that with Kuroneko Yamato it costs about 25,000 yen per box. I was told that it would be quicker to buy similar ones in the U.S.
If we use sea mail, will it take about 2 months?
Also, if I send relatively new electrical appliances, will they get caught in customs? I have never sent a package from Japan, so I would appreciate it if someone who knows more about it could help me.This text has been translated by auto-translation.

It depends on what you are sending.
Do you want to send a refrigerator or a lamp stand, the weight, the price ?.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

If a box costs about 25,000 yen by Yamato, it is unlikely to be 10,000 yen per box by any means, including shipping, so that will give you a ballpark figure for shipping costs. On the other hand, I would suggest that you make a list of "appliances" that you need in the U.S., estimate the price of new or used appliances, and decide which would be more advantageous. Personally, I think that for ordinary electrical appliances, it would be cheaper to buy them in the U.S. than to send them from Japan. You also have to take into account the difference in power supply voltage. It is also possible to sell used electrical appliances in Japan.

> Which shipping company should I use to save money and get there earlier ?
I don't even know how much it weighs or how big it is, so how can I answer that question?
I have several boxes, how many boxes?
If it's from you to me, it's basically tax free, but if it's from your friend to you, you have to pay customs duty even if it's used
I want it as cheap as possible
But I don't want to use shipping service which takes at least 45 days
because it takes a long time. I guess I'm just asking for something I don't have.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Thanks to everyone who responded
Mr. Miao
. The electronics are mainly audio products, speakers and various other things, probably less than 10 boxes, and it looks like the weight and size varies from box to box, so I didn't write it down, but then I wouldn't know, would I? I have never sent them myself, so I am not sure, and I apologize for that. The price is probably more than 30,000 yen per box.

Thank you for your detailed answer ! It was very helpful.
Mr. Bokeh
I understand that there is basically no tax for me to myself and it takes at least 45 days for the shipping service. I didn't know that kind of information, so it was very helpful.
Thank you very much.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Can't you find a substitute item in the U.S.?
Sometimes you can find Japanese products on Amazon by changing their names to English.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Small hair dryers, electric kettles, etc. may be worth sending, but refrigerators, washer/dryers, and other so-called "shiro mono" appliances are too large and heavy to be worth the trouble of sending from Japan.
> I heard that it costs about 25,000 yen per box from Kuroneko Yamato, so it is faster to buy something similar in the US
You are right. And since the power supply voltage here is 120V while in Japan it is 100V, it is very dangerous to use hair dryers and other products that convert electrical energy into heat. However, if you buy a transformer, it will be much more expensive, and the transformers available here do not meet the U.S. safety standards, so it is dangerous to use them.
We buy Zojirushi electric kettles and TOTO washlet adapted for the US market from US Amazon. But if Japanese parents or friends send appliances, we have to accept them. Either way, shipping fees across the ocean are probably quite expensive by any means nowadays. Sorry this is not the answer you want, but it is not the key.This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation.

I will buy goods sold in the U.S.A.

He's talking about voltage again
and he's talking about 30 year old common sense
He's always talking about electrical products, using his old knowledge
Why does the old man only think about household electrical products ?
He can think about recording studio equipment and all kinds of other things!This text has been translated by auto-translation. There may be a slight difference between the original text and the translation. (Original Language: 日本語)

Since Topy hasn't written what kind of product it is,
it's not too late to ask Topy what kind of appliance it is first and then write it down.From the flow of the writing, Topi may not write anymore. This text has been translated by auto-translation.
