Packaging & Recycle Policy
Nippon Niche leadership has made the decision to minimize the use of new paper, plastic, and cardboard packaging and reuse cardboard shipping boxes, plastic and bubble wrap, and packing paper from previously received shipments and deliveries from various vendors, personal use items, and other merchants.
Packaging will only be reused if it is in acceptable condition and contains no tears, holes, rips, or other damage that could expose a product to damage.
Nippon Niche leadership apologizes if this policy is not to everyone's liking but this decision was made out of both our support to maximize the reuse of recyclable goods and a financial need. We are still a new venture in it's infancy and as such we'd rather preserve all financial capital to stocking inventory for each and everyone of you over collecting branded packaging that will end up in the trash or recycle bin anyways.
Thank you for your understanding and support in this decision.
