Going to Japan and buy from Japan

I have seen Japanese manufacturers flatly refuse to supply spare parts for the repair of any device that did not go through channels, despite in-country laws preventing just that sort of stunt.

American ones too! 😂

That might be illegal but what can YOU, a private individual, realistically do about it?

Joining the effort to pass Right to Repair legislation in the US is a place to start. Once a law is on the books, comparatively few businesses are willing to break it. https://www.repair.org/

@effischer great post! 

I got it. Japan is no place for white people, let alone black people. Whatever Japanese say it means no.

@inna  Did I miss something in previous comments?  I did not detect any racist element, but I don't know any other way to take yours.  I apologize if I'm reading an unintended meaning into your last post.   

Racist ? Nothing of the kind. Japan is a different world, and they are different race as well. That's the reality. 

Anyway, the OP is not participating, I wonder why.
