Yen is massivley up against the pound in the last year. It used to be aprox 2000Y = £10, now it's more like £10 will get you 1300Y.

Oh it's not the exchange rate thats the problem, just the handling fee's seem to make a lot more difference this year than they did last year. For example, a 2000yen inc internal shipping item now costs me nearly £25 before shipping to UK, seems a very drastic increase compared to last year

I don't think the fees increasing is the main problem, (I don't know if they even have)the fees start in Yen so the exchange rate is the main problem I have now.
