“OURA RING” attracts attention as a gadget for physical management
It is also available on Amazon, but is very expensive because it is listed by a reseller.（Some nearly twice as much as on the official site.）
I didn’t want to buy a rather expensive aura ring, so I bought it from the official website.
I don’t have much experience shopping directly from international sites, how long does it take to receive my order? I’ve been trying to find out.（I currently live in Japan）
Like me, I wonder, “When will it arrive?” I think this will be helpful for those who are wondering the same thing.
In my case, I received it in about 10 days.
It depends on the availability at the time of order and the number of orders, but you should expect it to take approximately two weeks to arrive.
Now let’s take a more detailed look at the process from order to arrival.
How many days does it take to receive the aOURA RING after ordering?
I will look back at the schedule when I bought my aura ring, including my email history.
2020/10/19 Ordered on the official website.
PAYPALで注文したので、新たに住所やカード情報を入れる必要がなく、意外とスムーズに注文できました。
本体とサイジングキットを注文して、注文内容が記載されたメールも届きました。
「当日中に出荷作業に入りましたよ」という内容のメールも届きました。
2020/10/19 Buy on the official website
Just about a day later, I received a shipping notice.
It includes a tracking number and shipping address.
At the same time, you will be able to track your package.
It is a bit strange to see the city you live in displayed, starting from Eindhoven, the Netherlands.
2020/10/20 Sizing kit shipped
The sizing kit arrived around noon.
Choose the size that fits you best, wear it for a day or so, and choose the size that feels most comfortable.
I chose 4.5-5（8合） and found it a little hard to remove depending on the time of day.
I went with 4.5-5（8合） because I didn’t feel any discomfort while wearing it and it came off smoothly once I soaped it on.
If it is too small, the finger will tighten and the measurement will not be accurate.
If it is too large, the terminal will not be able to touch the finger and measurement will not be possible.
The body seemed slightly larger than the sizing kit, so if in doubt, choose the smaller size.（There may be individual differences.）
We recommend that you wear the unit for 24 hours and take your time to choose the right size over a couple of days.
Once the size is determined, the body is ordered on the official website.
You can access the sizing screen from the e-mail you received upon arrival of the sizing kit.
2020/10/24 Determine size and order
I determined the size from this URL and finalized my order.
I have thin fingers, so I chose 4.5-5.
Unlike ordinary rings, the OURA RING has a measuring device inside.
The sizing kit also reproduces the protrusions that contain the devices, which are quite different from the ring sizes we normally use.
2020/10/26 OURA RING shipped
We decided on the size and the order was shipped within 2 days of ordering.
In the order confirmation email.
Your Oura ring will be crafted from your specifications soon. We’ll send you another email once your ring is ready.
直訳）あなたのオーラリングはすぐにあなたの仕様から作られます。
I thought, “Are you going to make it now?” because of a sentence like this but I was relieved to see that it was surprisingly quick.
2020/10/30 arrival
The unit arrived about 10 days after the initial order.
I paid the customs duty (2,800 yen) on arrival, paid on delivery, in addition to the price of the unit/shipping.
The packaging that arrives is so messy that you can really feel “Oh, it came from overseas…”.
The contents were clean, the size was exactly as ordered, the color was exactly as ordered, and the charging cord and charging stand were included.
In summary, the aura ring will arrive in about 10 days!
In my case, it took about 10 days from order to arrival.
Depending on how many orders are placed at that time and how long it takes to select the right size, you should expect roughly two weeks.
Finally, the schedule from order to arrival is noted again.
This is only the case when I ordered, so delivery may be delayed depending on the size and time of year.
It is much slower than Amazon, etc. If you want to buy at a lower price even if it takes longer, we recommend that you buy from the official website.
