Information on consignment sales of works
Updated: October 21, 2026
The page for circles is currently under maintenance.
For all inquiries, please contact us by email.
We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
We operate an online store and physical shops called AKIBA-HOBBY (Akiba Hobby).
We offer consignment sales of circle works regardless of format, including music CDs, books, and goods.
In addition to in-store sales through our directly operated “AKIBA-HOBBY Akihabara Store” and supplying works to partner retailers, we also offer an Amazon listing service for works in certain eligible categories.
Please feel free to register your circle and work information on the page below!
Work registration and various applications
*When introducing works by email, if you wish to list them on Amazon, please be sure to clearly state “Amazon listing requested.”
For details regarding transactions, please read the following.
About consignment
The basic process is as follows.
Circle registration → Work registration → Review by our sales department and order placement → Delivery
In addition to new works from circles, we also welcome submissions of past works.
We accept small quantities, so please feel free to consult with us.
Transaction terms
- The basic condition is that the wholesale price is 70% of the retail price.
- Other transaction terms will be discussed after you introduce your circle’s works.
*As a general rule, we ask all circles to use consignment arrangements.
*If you prefer purchase, we ask for a lower rate. In addition, orders may be in small quantities to avoid risk. Thank you for your understanding.
Payments and reports
- For consignment sales, accounts are closed at the end of each month (totals calculated from the 1st through the end of the month).
- Online report in mid-month of the following month
(You can log in to the dedicated reporting web page to check. New circles will be issued an account at this time.) - Payment will be made at the end of the reporting month.
*However, if the end of the month falls on a holiday or consecutive holidays, transfers will be made around 1-2 days before or after the first bank business day of the following month.
Example: Payments due at the end of December are transferred around January 4-5.
About the consignment period
The consignment period is generally set at “1 year,” but
If neither we nor the circle requests otherwise, the arrangement will be automatically extended in one-month increments.
If consignment is terminated at our request, we will consult with the circle in advance. (There will be no sudden returns.)
Information on ending inventory used for tax returns
For the inventory as of the end of December required for circles to file their tax returns,
Please use the consignment report for December 1-31 (reported around mid-January, paid at the end of January).
About consumption tax
For all partner circles, we add consumption tax to total sales and make payment accordingly.
Therefore, when registering works, please be sure to register them at the “price excluding consumption tax.”
Transfer fees
If the payment amount is less than ¥3,000, payment will be carried over to the following month.
For transfers to banks other than Japan Net Bank, a transfer fee of ¥172 to ¥270 will be deducted from the payment amount.
Regarding returns of works
Please contact the person in charge by email or via the inquiry form.
• Work title
• Return quantity
• Return deadline
• Return address (postal code), name, and telephone number
Please provide the following information when making your request.
Please note that the return period generally takes about 2 weeks to 1 month due to various procedures.
Regarding return methods

2: Purchase (purchase for ¥5 → special-price sale)
