[Article] Avex pictures enforces export ban on Blu-rays, DVD, and CDs

[_dandy_]

I can't say I've read everything in this thread, but I'll say this: A few months ago I ordered my first Ayu Blu-ray concert from Amazon Japan, and it shipped with no problem (it actually got here way, way, faster than anything I've ever ordered from the Japanese reseller I usually go through from Amazon Canada).

I must've ordered 4 more items, and they all worked, then one day *everything* stopped working - every time I follow the check-out procedure, I'm now being told the item cannot ship to Canada. Even items I've purchased before. There's *never* any explanation, just that it can't be shipped to my address.

Is this related to this ban?

[Edit]
To add insult to injury, Amazon Japan keeps spamming me almost every day with items I "...might be interested in". Same results.
