Pre-queue prep (day before)

Export W2C list from Kakox. Have Wise topped ¥2,000 ready (6 min to credit, see Wise guide). Bookmark all 3 agent batch-paste pages.

At queue >500

Don't wait. Paste same list into Joyagoo batch (42 in queue vs 2,437). We checked out 3 min and paid domestic before Kakobuy queue moved 200.

After checkout

Tick combine + vacuum before freight. If agent is Oopbuy, tick IOSS early — sale rush customs 9-day vs 14h (IOSS).
