Comment on Does importing goods from abroad alone really void sales tax?

The only way to do it tax and duty free would be to go to Akihabara yourself, buy the goodies in person (paying sales tax), and get a receipt. Then submit the receipt to the relevant tax authority to get your sales tax reimbursed (there are companies that will help you with this for a fee). Then you take the goodies back with you in checked baggage and hope you’re under the personal limit for importing goods, otherwise they’ll hit you with the import duty anyway.
