Buying parts from Japan for older Birdy bikes

For those of you who are desperate to get the parts for Birdy that aren't available in your location, you can consider buying from Japan directly with the help of a proxy bidder.

I used to use Tenso's service. It isn't the cheapest but it's easy enough and works. It can do proxy bids and also can purchase directly from a shop, and then send the item to your location.

Yahoo Auction Japan often has some interesting and hard-to-find parts for older Birdy bikes.

I found this Japanese shop selling a lot of items for older Classic Birdy and Birdy 2. (In the Japanese market, Birdy Classic V1/2, Birdy 2, and some New Classic Birdy are called BD-1. In general, nowadays New Classic and Birdy 3's are named as Birdy.) I will update the link(s) below if I happen to see any more online shops that are worth mentioning. You may consider using Tenso to buy the item or using your favorite proxy bidder.
