Honestly, I don't think there's much of a high chance they'll have an official storefront like Genshin does because the nature of CN Otoge merch are Pre-Orders and some reruns during new releases. Unless stocks they still have and they want to clear out so the listing is permanent until OOS. Also, I get the feeling that PG might not have the strength to produce high quantities so often because if you look at LP's merch PO periods, it's pretty much a monthly thing. So they do limit it to POs for LDS.

I do suggest proxies because that is honestly the best option if you can manage to find a one! Emphasis for the proxy should be someone who knows how to deal with CN games merch ordering, than other types of proxies. Because again, the nature of these merch are POs and they open for 3 weeks on average so it can be enough time for you to think of which to get and have the proxy put in the order.

I have seen some US proxies for CN games but I don't particularly remember the user. I'm assuming here (sorry!) since you mentioned Amazon. My friends do live in Canada and they order directly on Taobao and have CN warehouses to deal with overseas shipping. I'll see if they have time to answer their experience in the replies 😂

I agree abt bootleg/unauthorized fan merch. I just wish PG had an easier way to buy merch *cries* I know there's taobao but you cannot order from them without a passport if you're overseas (your account gets flagged and you can't order anything lol) and ordering via a proxy is a nightmare for time gated stuff. I wish they'd open an official storefront on Amazon like genshin did, I don't mind paying a few extra bucks if I knew the storefront was official. It's very hard to communicate this to the company because surveys are few and far in-between and customer service is just a bot unless you're a whale. Should I even bother asking them for a global store or just stick to hunting for secondhand merch from mecari?
